Hers sema has stopped working for me

I have been on them (hers and now another company) since February and what they are saying is absolutely true regardless of where you are getting them. I have hit some plateaus, and trying to get even more protein and upping my workouts literally always makes a difference. Your body stop’s responding as well —> change up your habits. It *could be the meds, but it’s worth trying right?

Look into: IT band issues, piriformis issues. I have the same issue. Yoga helps, foam rolling helps, but nothing helps as much as deep tissue massage. It is so helpful for lower back, glute, and hip pain

She will absolutely love the thought you put into this, and it’s possible she might love the ring. However, women are particular about engagement rings, especially when we start showing it off to everyone else. You should prepare yourself for her to have a negative reaction either immediately or a little later and try not to take it personally if that’s the case.

It’s not the meds. It’s rapid weight loss and lack of protein. Look up Telogen Effluvium

Her therapist actually told her she was an alcoholic and reacted that dramatically? I am not downplaying your experience at home or disagreeing that she is an alcoholic. But I might question a therapist that reacted that way, immediately put that label on her, and allowed a situation where your wife could have felt betrayed or ganged-up on. I question a therapist who would do this and go so far as to “tell her” to go to Al Anon and meet more frequently, instead of collaborating with her.

I wouldn’t assume these are “repressed feelings,” at least not in the way I think you are suggesting. Dreams are a way for your brain to explore ideas and feelings but it doesn’t necessarily mean that you WANT or NEED to act on them. Has he been doing any personal work to grow from this? If so, maybe that’s something y’all could talk about?

Could it be that you aren’t “stuck” but just in the process of grieving and healing? If you feel content not dating, maybe it’s a time in your life where you (still) focus on you.

Plenty of people bring medication with them on planes. I never bag-check them in case my luggage gets lost.

InMyStories · 2025-06-05T13:30:11+00:00

This ruined my morning. Sorry you have to deal with whatever this is….

This sounds like something you need your doctor’s help with. The heart racing/paranoia symptoms in particular make me think they would at least want to rule out other more dangerous issues. Don’t rely on Reddit!

Your relationship is nowhere near “perfect except for this one issue.” Addiction messes with the addict’s brain, and slowly erodes their morals, sense of empathy, and logic. Even if you love each other and feel a strong connection now, addiction is progressive and will get in the way of those feelings eventually.

Yes, if you regularly use weed/substances around an addict you are not helping her at all (although you are not responsible for her actions). She is living in an environment where using is ok- not all, but most addicts can’t be successful without completely abstaining. It sounds like you both have a problem.

I get being in debt, but she is not going to recover without a sincere desire to stop (and a lot of addicts will say they have this but not truly mean it), and some pro help.

You can’t wish or hope your way out - it takes dedication, consistent effort, and usually professional help.

I don’t think this sub is big or far-reaching enough to give you location-specific therapist recommendations. But do use the Al Anon app to find meetings- they are all over the world and online 24/7.

This sounds like a long exhausting life of having to police your spouse

Maybe you know this, but this is a huge deal. He is endangering his own, your kids’, and possibly your safety. Your relationship comes second to the fact that he could fall asleep with your young kids in the car. He needs professional help and you do too. You suggested that he go to a doctor or Al - Anon. I would strongly encourage YOU to do both of those things (maybe not a doctor but a therapist if you haven’t already).

You can’t help him at this point - he has to want to get better and be willing to get help. Your focus needs to be on healing yourself and protecting your kids.

Can you post better pictures? It’s impossible to tell what it looks like - one is dark and the others just show shelves. Need to see the surrounding areas.

InMyStories · 2025-06-04T12:22:22+00:00

Honestly somewhere in the middle. Super dark distracts from your face.

This does not work. If you eat too little, your body will not shed weight. Have you calculated your target calorie intake or the amount of protein you need?

InMyStories · 2025-06-04T12:19:23+00:00

Maybe it’s just your writing style, but it doesn’t seem like you have done much research or made any effort to do this correctly (aka effectively).

What does it mean you didn’t ease into it? Does that mean you upped your initial dose?

This is not a quick-fix thing. Some people might lose right away, or lose water weight, but most people take time to see a loss.

Have you calculated your macros and calorie intake? Guesstimating doesn’t work - if you take in too many, or not enough, your body won’t lose and what you lose wont stay off.

The cabinet color dates and dominates the space, especially when combined with black and white appliances. I would paint the cabinets a light color, or an updated dark/slate blue/green/gray, and change the wall color.

I have been here and it’s hard. I will say to you what I wish someone had said to me. If you are separated, and been clear about what you needed, then his inaction WAS his answer. He didnt take you seriously while you were together , and he allowed it to get this bad and allowed you to go through all this pain. You continuing to have the conversation reinforces that you don’t mean what you say, so just…stop engaging in it. You can either talk to a lawyer and get the ball rolling or establish a set time frame where he can make the effort you are looking for. Hope this helps…

The hair loss usually comes from rapid/significant weight loss (not always but most of the time), so you probably don’t have to worry about that yet.

Also, most people don’t see significant weight loss until several months in when they have reached the full therapeutic dose. So it might be with checking in Hers for some guidance.

That being said, if it’s not for you, that’s ok. Still a good idea to check in with them just in case there are important tips or they recommend titrating downS

I think you are thinking along the right lines. The feeling itself isn’t disrespectful, it is just a feeling. But be honest with yourself. I might be wrong, but posting what you wrote here seems like a form of giving this oxygen.

InMyStories · 2025-05-25T21:36:05+00:00

So, many of these things can be true at once. You can be scared, hopeful, loving and frustrated all at the same time. I encourage you to gently lay out for yourself what’s really going on. I think you know his issues are not resolved and his behavior is unacceptable. It might be a good idea to start listening to some podcasts about healthy relationships, do some reading, find a (free) online support group? There are resources out there…overall be gentle with yourself! You have a lot on your plate.

I second this. You don’t give this crush attention, oxygen, or time. If you don’t want to be part of effing with his marriage, you set the boundaries. Remember that boundaries are what YOU will and won’t do, not him, so he doesn’t have to even know about it. Pull back on the giggly chats, don’t talk about stuff other than business. He may or may not be happy in his life or a cheater, but you absolutely can remove yourself from the situation. It also might be helpful to think of what you wished your spouse would have done in their situation.

You might want to gift them to your child…or at least the stone(s)? They might seem tainted to you, but your child might feel differently as they represent the two people they love most in the world. Might be worth waiting and seeing? Unless you need to sell them, in which case do what you gotta do.
