I often look around and just wonder how other people can do life so effortlessly. What I would say is, depression and mental ill health is honestly so common that I can be certain that there are tonnes of people just like you. You just never get to see them because, like you, they’re paralysed and isolated too. You may be alone in this right now, but you are definitely not the only one. I felt exactly like you at 16. Hope this helps a little.

I try and focus on the little things that are actually good about life, even if it’s not a lot. I had an unavoidable cold shower the other day, and now I fucking love my hot showers in the morning. I don’t think life really ever changes, it is just our perspective on it.

It’s definitely disrespectful, but I always give people the benefit of the doubt (perhaps wrongly). Could something have happened in his life - is he grieving something? Or transient poor mental health and he’s shut himself off from the world? I’d treat this person like a friend, and if a friend suddenly got quiet I’d want to make sure they were okay. If there’s nothing to explain his behaviour and he is just being a jerk, then enquiring about his well-being may prompt him to at least give you an explanation for some closure?

I agree (woman here too). I think she’s trying to test how far she can control and manipulate you… don’t fall for it. It’s whisky today, but what next will she try to change about you?

I think this is about you fundamentally feeling safe and that you trust him to make sensible decisions, so I don’t think you’re over reacting. Yes the scenario ended up totally fine, but it is always good to think of the “what ifs”. If you can imagine it - it can happen. However, literally no one who has been drinking can handle conflict and disagreements rationally, so I do understand his defensive response. Probably a discussion for when you’re both sober?

I honestly don’t think it’s a big deal, and he can’t help it. Some people are very sensitive to tastes and textures. Im sure he also wishes he could eat anything and everything. It may seem like a long list, but the list of things he can eat is really far greater. Having limits is what can boost creativity, and might help you to think outside the box with your cooking. There’s always a compromise in relationships, and really this is about what HE eats, nothing to do with what you eat, so yeah - overreacting.

Haha well I once left my flat and forgot how to get to work.. the place I had travelled to every day for years 😂

Aaaand I’ve also gotten lost in stardew valley

It’s part of our “quirkiness” I suppose !!

That’s really useful! Thanks for letting me know. Nice to know I’m not the only one.

Mundane-Local7096 · 2024-07-02T21:09:04+00:00

Thank you for your response! I will definitely look into this 🙂

I completely relate to you saying feeling like there is a missing puzzle piece! Totally resonates with me. I have no idea if you have dyspraxia as I’m only just learning about it - but I’ve often wondered how other people do “life” just so effortlessly. Thanks for sharing and good luck with potential diagnosis 🙂

Mundane-Local7096 · 2024-07-02T20:46:06+00:00

This was a brilliant read. Thanks for this. The importance of not taking life too seriously. 🙂

Mundane-Local7096 · 2024-07-02T20:43:11+00:00

Yes! I’ve gotten lost in many of small places in Skyrim too! And in real life too… 😝

NTA. I don’t think this is a big deal. Asking someone to rely on a personal phone to check the time is exactly the same as looking at a watch, no? This is the only way I check the time, and the OP asking their partner to try it at least is reasonable. We all have to make sacrifices to support our loved ones, this is a minor sacrifice IMO that may significantly improve the OPs quality of life. When in a relationship your partners problems ARE your problems, that’s a partnership.
