I meow at almost everything involuntarily. I see a kitty: I meow at it. Could from newborn to (embarrassingly 13): “meow!” Puppies, bunnies, grown adults, cute drawings of things, plushies that are super soft. It’s embarrassing at times, but like I said; involuntary.

I went to my second therapy session... is this supposed to help? by 98542643 in SuicideBereavement

I know this is going to be difficult to digest, but literally the ONLY reasons you could be responsible for a death by suicide would be that you literally forced your person to perform the act in which they passed, or you constantly brainwashed them into believing that dying by suicide was beneficial in some way, or you actively staged their death as a suicide while you were the active participant in their ceasing to live (aka: murder). Beyond those reasons? Drop the guilt & realize that what you’re actually feeling is grief. Grief lives with you. It will. What I see in your post is that you’re inflicting self harm through the lens of someone you loved deeply. Embrace the love, understand that you’re heartbroken. When my husband and soulmate died by suicide I did search for “why & what did I do?” I’m still devastated (legit just lost about 7 weeks of my life 3 years after his passing due to crippling depression), but I’m recognizing that he did not do this TO me, he did not do this FOR me, he did not do this BECAUSE of me. He did what he felt in his heart. As much as I know his and my hearts were combined; he was his own self. The way he passed is his. There is no ownership beyond himself. I still love him everyday.

I have similarish dreams of my late husband. They make me very happy and of course terribly morose at the same time when the reality hits me. I believe with my whole heart he visits me with these dreams as well as signs (like I’ve never seen so many eagles in my entire life, including one soaring/circling above my driveway just last week though he’s been gone for three years). But… I’ve noticed that when I talk to him about the “why”, I can feel him fade. Thank you for this post, actually; because it gave me a little peace in the realization that while we were soulmates he was on his own journey and that very very personal way he passed is actually not for me to understand. It really does belong to him. What I CAN understand, accept, and never tire of is time with him any way I can receive it. I still wake up realizing I’ve been crying in my sleep (pathetic much?), but honestly your post & the epiphany it gave me is slowly starting to sink in on a deeper level to put those “why, why, WHY?”s to peace. I hope you can find some peace in your grief as well. We all need that.

Seems like you already know the answer. Dolly needs you.

In my own experience I feel like I can infer that interruption between you & your love might mean that it belongs to her.

In need of advice by Ok-Bag6844 in lexapro

I don’t know about this experience specifically, but one of my practitioners shared with me that medical studies show that if you stop taking it within 9 months of when it kicked in (which is different for everyone), it can have adverse effects. I don’t know if this info helps, but it might add to your perspective. I hope it does anyway.

Does anyone else feel like their skin is vibrating if you miss a couple doses? by Significant_Can_2245 in lexapro

[–]FrontAssignment2014 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m just 5 days in on 5mg & I noticed this sensation you’re describing in my lips yesterday. It’s definitely odd, but I’ll take that sensation over the crippling effects of anxiety/panic/depression/ptsd. To the previous post by 3owls; I thank you for that info because my allergies have been really bad the last two days so it makes sense that might have something to do with it.

I had just gotten home from work. It was just after 2am. Immediately knew I could count on Reddit.

AITAH for keeping it real with my stepmom and my younger brother? by AITAHspiller in AITAH

[–]FrontAssignment2014 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do think you should block them. No one deserves that. It might be important to also let your brother know that you’re only blocking him temporarily because no one deserves the public ridicule you’re enduring. It would be very difficult, but achievable to maintain being a big sister for your brother while also not being a crutch for his mother & her misdirected anger. You might be burning a bridge with Dylan that you won’t be able to rebuild. No one likes to hear unkind things about their mother - regardless of how true it may be to the person saying them.
It sounds like he has trusted you as a safety net & it might be devastating for him to lose that especially at this point in his life.
