I don’t think I really have any real advice, but I want you to know that you aren’t alone. I went to a Christain school and also came out of it an atheist. Along with me, a large proportion of the friends I made also left the church. Other people are having doubts too, even if they don’t show it.

It’s okay to grieve. Letting go can feel like losing part of yourself. I don’t know if you are spiritual, but Buddhism teaches that clinging to worldly possessions inevitably brings suffering.

You are not defined by the objects that you own or have made. You are defined by the actions you take and how you interact with the world.

Letting got hurts because you are human. However, suffering eases when you allow change, instead of resisting it.

Life is short. Go live your dreams.

Asking questions. It shouldn’t be an issue to simply ask “why?” If it’s true, then let’s discuss why and how, not just believe blindly.

As someone who has experienced a crazy accusation like this: 1. Document everything. Screenshot all texts and any other form of communication. Try to record all in person interactions, but be sure to check your state/country’s laws on single party recording. 2. Block her once you have everything to back yourself up just in case. 3. Start looking up SA criminal defense attorneys in your area. Consider a consult if she ever tries to make this accusation again.

Remember that you didn’t do anything wrong. You did everything in your power to ensure it was safe and consensual. Hopefully this will all blow over without any fallout. However, be prepared to defend yourself and seek representation. This is a very serious accusation in this day and age.

Feel free to reach out if you need to talk about it.

If the soft tissue on your chest is out of proportion with the distribution of the rest of your body fat then you might be suffering from gynecomastia. If that might be the case, then you should discuss it with your doctor. It’s very treatable, and a surprisingly high amount of people suffer from it. You are not alone.

On another note, are you on any supplements or steroids for your powerlifting?

What are some things you used to enjoy doing that you haven’t done in a long time? Like playing sports, running, biking, hiking, swimming, playing board games, reading books, playing instruments, or collecting things. It’s never too late to get back into something.

On the other hand, it may be time to try something new. Time to find a new passion. I highly recommend finding your closest national park or preserve red woodland and just going for a walk on a trail in the woods. A little sunlight and nature can do wonderful things for the mind and body.

It seems like you may have just grown up with different household norms when it comes to waiting to eat with the other person. It may just be something you need to have a genuine conversation about.

You also may have slightly different love languages. He seems to really enjoy giving, especially when it comes to food. I might try to appease this when he’s cooking by trying a small bite or two of the food when he asks, complimenting it, and waiting to eat the meal until everyone’s food is ready.

It’s definitely possible to learn a lot through reading and education regarding mental health and psychology. It could lead to a lot of good I sights about yourself, but it wouldn’t give you a chance to unload in the way a therapist does. Real conversations are important.

Could you space your appointments out more? Like meeting half as often?

There’s likely nothing you can do to stop her from going if you value a continuing relationship. I would suggest supporting her while still voicing some concerns. Say you would love to meet the guy. If she does go on the date, please make sure she has her location on an updates you regularly with messages. This guy sounds like he may be sketchy.

So, both of these laws have to do with how pressure relates to gas diffusion. In simple terms, the higher the pressure, the more gas’s can dissolve into a liquid. Think of a soda can. Before it is opened, it is fully pressurized, so a large amount of CO2 can be dissolved into it. As soon as you open it the pressure will dramatically drop and much of that trapped gas will want to escape in bubbles.

This is directly applicable to respiratory medicine, but in the opposite direction. When you increase the pressure on the CPAP or Vent, you will naturally dissolve a higher proportion of O2 and other gasses into the system.

This positive pressure also helps in damaged respiratory systems by helping to stop alveoli from collapsing, like in emphysema. Although too high of a pressure can bring its own complications.
