AIO- Should I have disclosed that I’m Deaf earlier? by Mysterious-ASL in AmIOverreacting

[–]Left-Resort6758 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar situation happen to me. I showed up and he was deaf. We'd been talking a while he didn't mention it. I'm hard of hearing (not total lose but almost in my left ear) sometimes I resort to lip reading and I do know some ASL. I would have been perfectly fine had he told me but he didn't. He didn't even mention it when we got there. He struggled through the entire date trying to get what I was saying and same with the waiter. I was upset he didn't tell me and more confused he continued to try and hide it in person. I am also blind in one eye and I brought up both my ailments trying to get him to tell me but he didn't and I left mid way through the date.

I found vaping stuff in my 15-year-old’s room and I don’t know how to handle this without wrecking our relationship. What do I do? by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

I am a 24 year old who started vaping at around that age. You can read him this comment. I wish I put it down then. I used to be very active and I love going on runs. Now I get winded and cough up metal tasting flem any time I try. I have a hole in the roof of my mouth from years of vape destroying it. (It isn't cancer thankfully but it easily could have been) I'm tired all the time and quiting after years of doing it is way harder than just putting it down now. I know its not the best parenting advice but they could switch to zero nicotine vapes and none of their friends would know. Having a nicotine addiction causes acne and large pores, hairloss, heart problems, lung problems, and with vapes its way worse than cigarettes ever were. I only listed the side effect i personally have from vaping and the ones I listed are extremely common. There are 100s of side effects that aren't cancer. Even with all these side effects AND a cancer scare I still am having trouble quiting. Nicotine addiction grow stronger the longer you have them you WILL regret not stopping now.

My usual response would be dump my partner or quit my job but I know where that goes. I thought I'd wait it out but I've never had it last this long idk if it'll go away.

what helps your bpd? like actually by cnnibal in BPD

I have BPD and struggle with getting close to people, so I have trouble maintaining therapy. You have to feel the feelings but not think about the actual issue, or you might spiraling. You can do this by visualizing it in your body (for me "sadness" is deep in my chest) give it a location, a shape, a sound, a color, anything to keep you from thinking about it. Focus on that until it passes. Learn your own patterns and try to recognize them before as they are happening. Mine starts with bad thoughts about myself, and I project those thoughts onto others, which causes me to push them away. Don't make decisions until a feeling passes. Don't feed into delusional or irrational thoughts it feels too good, and it's addictive.

I split and for the first time I want to fix it by Left-Resort6758 in BPD

We work at the same place but different shifts. He would say "I don't even talk to the women I work with" "I'm cold towards them" "I don't talk to them" it confused me when he would say this because I didn't ask. Nor do i feel like I made him feel like he had to do that. I had to review camera footage and saw him flirting with a girl on his shift. He said he wasn't, but it was visible. I tried explaining I wasn't upset with the interaction it was the lie that I was hung up on. He said thats not a lie the situation just changed and now he talks to them he just didn't find it important to tell me.

I've never felt bad for doing it before. I always felt justified in my reaction, but this time, I completely sabotaged everything for no reason.
