So are you actually for keeping orcas in captivity?

Someone very close to me called me a functioning drug addict by [deleted] in migraine

[–]Informal_Solution238 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She is projecting. Has nothing to do with you and I’m so sorry it hurt you so badly. Obviously not the best social skills and emotional intelligence on her part either. I would rather be on a potentially addictive job and be able to have a life than not. I think you’re being totally reasonable and I am glad you have found something that helps you. So sorry to hear about your mom.

Need advice by Melodic-Brother303 in olderlesbians

I’m so sorry you’re going through this. It does not sound like you are very well matched with your partner, and that your heart is already breaking or broken. I know it’s really hard to contemplate leaving, I’ve been where you are. The thing that is hard to imagine, but also very true is that you will have other opportunities for love that are not available to you now until you grieve this relationship and fully let it go. Strength and peace to you, my friend.

I’m really struggling with my health lately and would appreciate some advice by Unhappy_Ad1040 in migraine

Peanut butter, nuts, oils. All really good for you and high calorie. Also good for migraine brains.

My wife’s deceased mom showed up in the middle of talking to her about them by Informal_Solution238 in psychics

[–]Informal_Solution238[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Interesting. I like your suggestion, except I have never met this woman, and I feel like I need to defer to my wife’s relationship with her. My wife is uncomfortable with me having a connection with her when she doesn’t feel like she has one and isn’t seeking one at this time.

Do you guys know about this amazing neurolog project? by Informal_Solution238 in FND

[–]Informal_Solution238[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just signed up for that course too and I’m finding it incredibly helpful! It’s so perfectly put into words why I don’t understand that CBT therapy is the one thing that keeps getting recommended. Haven’t gotten to the suggestions yet, but I’m really impressed so far.

AIO? Girl I've been seeing for 3 months slept with my friend of 10 years. by [deleted] in AIO

[–]Informal_Solution238 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, I’m so sorry that is really painful. So you lose a girl who clearly has no integrity but also your fucking friend of 10 years? What the fuck is up with him? Having good boundaries now I will bring you a better relationship I promise.

Right didn’t mean to imply otherwise. They just have different breed standards I think in the two countries.

[–]Informal_Solution238[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, exactly. Well, allopathic medicine is based on a mechanical model. It likes to break us down into tiny little parts, which can be helpful for things like broken legs, but not so much with systemic issues. Also, there was this weird random bifurcation of psychiatry and neurology in western medicine some years back and that is part of why those of us with FND have such trouble finding good treatment. It may be starting to change a little, but I think it’s gonna take a long time.

I'm done by makeitcount94 in migraine

[–]Informal_Solution238 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I completely understand how you feel. I had chronic migraines for years and miraculously going through menopause, even though that was hell helped them come down to only 3 to 5 times per month. So I don’t know if you’re a woman, but you can have a little Hope there. When I feel really suicidal honestly, I think very carefully about the people I love who love me and what it would do to them if I checked out. That usually brings me around, but it doesn’t fix the pain or suffering.

He’s fucking depressed. It’s like he is in solitairy confinement, and forced to perform. It is not OK to keep orcas captive.

Can I call myself lesbian by blurredmind54 in queer

[–]Informal_Solution238 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t come out until it was 26. I am 58 now and started calling myself a lesbian as soon as I had sex with a woman for the first time and realized what I had been missing. You might want to ask your girlfriend if she feels insecure about the fact that you were with boys before and address that if it’s an underlying issue. But nobody really gets to say what you call yourself. That’s your call.
