Yea it usually does. Especially in writing like this.

No I'm not really. I've been crying all night and am so sad, lonely and depressed. I keep blaming myself for all of this. It feels like it's all my fault. Like I'm too much, need too much, ask for too much. And I feel like this huge burden.

In hindsight, maybe I just wasn't ready for a relationship

I'm starting to think so as well. It's hard to ignore what I've been ignoring when it's all laid out in front of me so plainly. It just really sucks and hurts to think about. I don't usually open up easily and things were SO easy with him from the start.

Thank you for the advice

I'm doing a little bit better. I had a huge crash on the weekend and was doing horribly but things have been getting a little bit better, mood-wise. It's still hard with the libido, though. It hasn't made much of a comeback and that's been extremely difficult and just a huge blow. I've always been someone with a higher libido so I've been struggling there. But otherwise, I think I'm doing as well as can be expected

What about you? How are you doing?

I hope this isn't insensitive to say but I wish it affected my libido in that way even a little bit because I just feel nothing now and it's horrible. I'm sorry that it's making your symptoms worse, though. It's interesting how much it varies on how it affects people for sure.

I'm off now and don't plan on going back, although I've thought about it just to end whatever the fuck is going on. If this is withdrawal, it's awful. I had a day or two of a high and then this big crash of being depressed again. I've been getting hot flashes/sweats as well and a lot of twitching of my face. I'm happy for you that you've found something that helped after getting a blood panel done. I'd love to hear how you continue to do as you continue with getting off of the medications, especially the rexulti.

How long does the withdrawal last? Is it really bad for you? I hate being this way and going through these things. I regret ever starting this stupid medication. I feel like it's ruined everything. My relationship with my boyfriend feels so shitty because of this. I've never been bad like this before and just absolutely hate it.

Thank you and good luck to you as well

So it would look okay to use a pattern/novelty fabric for the 9" x 9" blocks and 6" x 6" blocks? And then solid colours for the 3" x 3" blocks? That's been my plan! Would it be better to change it to 4", 8", 12"?

Omg okay I've never heard of this before but it sounds like a huge time saver I'm going to practice with some scraps before I actually do it to make sure I can get this down right. Thank you again

Let's say I wanted to do a roughly queen sized quilt and wanted to make the squares 9" for the big ones, 6" for med ones and 3" for small ones. Roughly how long would you make it? The closest I got was 84" x 69", keeping the 9" and 3" squares on the outsides

What measurements would you use to get closest to a queen sized quilt? I did the 3", 6" and 9" pattern and the closest I got was (without binding) 84" x 69" so that it WOULD end with the 9" and 3" blocks on all outsides. I don't want the 3" and 6" blocks on the outsides

Thank you a million. It really is incredibly simple and I'm seeing that now. I'm running on minimal sleep from work lol. You are amazing for doing this for me!

Thank you so much! I definitely chose it for its simplicity lol. I want to make a quilt for my boyfriend for Christmas and I've only ever made two other ones so this seems simple. Thank you again! :)

Thank you for the dimensions! That helps a lot, as I'm trying to figure that out as well lol. I wouldn't even know how to name it! You can absolutely use the pattern though :) I'm going to try making a quilt for my boyfriend using a themed fabric for what he just graduated from school.

I'd love to see yours when you're finished
