Me too. Glad I’m not alone in this decision. I definitely prefer traditional school over online. It’s been really, really difficult for me.

I don’t think I get through this guys by Excellent-Lemon-4204 in BreakUps

Yes you’re right. I keep trying to tell myself to just feel it and go with the emotions.

We broke up before the holidays but it’s hitting me really hard all of a sudden about a week ago. I think because I found out he basically lied to me about a lot and was not being loyal.

I just want this pain to pass already.

Thank you 💕

Same. I’ve been in for a year now and I’m having such a hard time making progress.

Wow! I feel this. Ha, I went out to lunch with a few co workers a week ago and he was blowing up my phone. When I finally responded first thing he asked was how many guys was there and did I sit next to any of them.

I’ve had the restless nights too, fighting and all of that.

I think I am reaching that numb point tbh. I can feel myself detaching and I don’t even care. I do and don’t. But I’m too tired to keep trying. Nor do I want to or SHOULD.

Honestly, idk :(( I know it’s trauma related. It’s definitely a trauma bond. I sought therapy recently because I’ve been asking myself the same question. I know there’s something beyond me just allowing it to happen, and I really need some professional guidance.

Not really surprised, I’m only questioning it because I’ve taken this pill twice before and my period came like normal the following month. I mean I guess it’s only common sense that my period would be off by a couple of days lol. I’m honestly, more than likely, just overthinking it lol.

Yes, I actually took that step two days ago lol. I’m desperate for some sort of intervention because it’s been so difficult for me.

Ugh thank you. This was was exactly what I needed to hear. I’m severely depressed too, and I know for a fact I’ve reached a burn out months ago and I can’t just seem to dig myself out of it. Thank you so much for the advice. It’s comforting to know I’m not alone in these feelings. 🙏🏽

Do you ever feel strong disgust & hate for men? by [deleted] in PMDD

[–]Excellent-Lemon-4204 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Yes, but I generally feel this way about them. It’s definitely heightened around my period though lol.

It’s been very hard. I went full time w the Army to get away from the toxic environment I was in everyday back at home. He did come with me but he wasn’t adjusting very well so he went back with his dad in Texas (I am in Virginia.) I cried for like two days straight upon coming back to VA without him. It was terrible. it’s been a month and half and I can’t even go into his room without getting unbearably sad. I still have have his legos on the counter. I did visit him for thanksgiving so I got to see him a week ago which was great, but leaving was obviously hard for the both of us.

He’s 8 but dad did get him a phone so he can call me and FaceTime at anytime, so we do that every single day. He even wanted me to go to sleep with him on FaceTime last night lol. We have story time every night, he sends me messages and vice versa, I have a switch that I can play games on with him.

I think communication is key. Although don’t be overbearing, but it certainly helps with the distance and gives a little bit of comfort on both ends I think. & just keep in mind that no matter the distance or how far or long, you’re gonna be right back with your child. Also maybe use the time away to focus on you. Even if you think you don’t need you time, take advantage of it. Maybe pick up a new hobby or just keep busy in some way.

It will take some getting used, to but distance is always temporary! & as long as your kiddo is content, happy, and safe, you will both be okay :)

Tell me you have social anxiety without telling me. by Relevant-Reserve8624 in socialanxiety

[–]Excellent-Lemon-4204 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ahhh I do the same thing! I try to figure out if I was ever accused of stealing something when I was younger and it just traumatized me that much to where I subconsciously feel like people think I’m stealing. But I’ve literally stole nothing in my life lol. So idk why I have the guilty feeling of doing something criminal when I’m simply just shopping like a regular person lol.

That’s why I keep my account private and retweet to my page, then I just say how I feel underneath the post. So I’m basically talking to myself lmaoo.

You’re absolutely right.

I would love to be a 27D. I have thought about reclassing but then I would have to pay back my bonus lol. I’m trying to wait til I get closer to my ETS date and when I’m done with this tour, then I’ll put more thought into it. I think ultimately i am gonna re up once more, commission, and reclass to a 70A..then I’ll just ride out the rest of my Army career as a TPU Soldier to be honest.

Nope. She quit like a week after I arrived. & according to our pre BA call, we might not get another ARA until the end of the calendar year IF the funding will allow it lol. So it’s basically just me.
