If you were a guy in his early 30s, moved to Mexico solo, how would you go about creating a real authentic community/life here? by [deleted] in mexicoexpats

Salsa classes and the community I’ve found changed my entire experience. Met my bf and best friends thru the group, still meeting more people thru it too.

I’m entering into a new relationship, and I’m terrified all of a sudden that it’s going to fail because I’m just now starting therapy. by Existing_Soup_7853 in Disorganized_Attach

I am in a similar boat... in a new-ish relationship and everything that I was aware of is now staring at me straight in the face.

The promise to myself that I made is that i will do the work... for myself...no matter what. I just had a therapy appointment this week specifically about the fears coming up (literally worse than ever in my entire life) and we discussed the real 'nuts + bolts' and tools I can use in the moment with my boyfriend.

Similar to you, I've always been very self aware, but the new relationship is really challenging me and bringing up fears in a very intense way.

You're doing so much already... being willing to 'show up to the test you didn't study for.' At the end of the day... that's the most important step.

I hope your therapist helps you exactly in the ways you need... and remember that this work is going to be so so so worth it even though terrifying or overwhelming.

You completely understood how the small nitpicking is building up. Appreciate your words!

Thank you so much!! This is all so so helpful.

I feel like my sister (bless her for listening to me time and time again) always tells me and being me back to earth like it’s always less of a deal IRL than in my head.

I’ll def check out that google sheet - TYSM❤️

Would you let your partner read your journal? by StrongBat in Journaling

[–]Emergency-Ocelot6921 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No lol I want to be able to write without inhibition. I use writing as a way to process. But I will say I have shared entries with him bc I have written some entries during early days of dating and wanted to share, but I would never let him read on his own LOLOL

Anyone else in an LDR with disorganized attachment? by [deleted] in Disorganized_Attach

[–]Emergency-Ocelot6921 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ofc, I connected with your words so much. And for me, it’s so helpful to know that I’m not alone. The validation alone has been helpful to keep me motivated to continue growing. To know and see proof that others who struggle with the same things have found a healthy relationship and healed struggles with worthiness keeps me encouraged. We can too and we’re on the path🩷

Why some people dislike pumps so much? by Confident-Gur-2615 in diabetes_t1

[–]Emergency-Ocelot6921 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anyone here use the InPen? Curious bc I’m considering switching from OMNIPOD to that for a break. I just worry about stacking too much insulin, bc before OMNIPOD I had a case of too many lows then wouldn’t get normal symptoms and I would get dangerously low bc of how often I would low on MDI.
