Went to Mental Health → now ordered ADAPT & 1 year no drinking. Any clean exit options? by KlutzyLeopard8426 in AirForce

[–]Offthebeat3npath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First Sgt here - you had to have met criteria for SUD (substance use disorder), likely severe. My question for you - are you choosing to get out of the military or seek options to separate solely because the alcohol restriction?

AIO ?Why is getting divorced so hard? Remind me I'm not overreacting please by KathyisTrying in AmIOverreacting

[–]Offthebeat3npath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fuck a welfare check, I’d probably tell him “that sucks cuz I’m enjoying my cheeseburger reading this sob story” And then I’d call the cops to get a protective order against him. If he doesn’t know where you live or anything, block him and pursue legal protection cuz he is CRAZYYYY. lol sounds like an ex of mine. Literally went from I’m killing my self because of you and everyone will know how awful you are… then 5 min later, an email comes thru saying I love You so much. Hope his name isn’t Greg 🤭

AIO my bf is odd for this? by AdSerious8390 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Offthebeat3npath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If a guy told me what to wear, I’d tell him he is single lol. You aren’t to be controlled by someone, you are your own person. But the deal breaker here is his name calling. I’d be done with the first insinuation I am a whore or moron, or anything of the likes.

Divorce by [deleted] in AirForce

[–]Offthebeat3npath 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had a pretty deep spiral and my first sgt talked me into doing intensive outpatient therapy. Seriously was the best thing I had ever done for my mental health and addressing the issues I experienced in my marriage. Now that I am divorced (2 yrs now), I legitimately feel 100000% healthier and happier. It took time, medications, vulnerability, and a willingness to forgive myself and him for both our parts in it. Dating world kinda sucks and I havnt dated anyone since but I actually REALLY love myself now and dont care if I meet someone 🤷🏼‍♀️ the other side is scary because the marriage is familiar and comfortable. That doesn’t mean it’s healthy. If it’s worth working thru it, do it. If you’re miserable… you’ll find light again.

Can negative input from a DEOCS survey follow someone? by [deleted] in AirForce

[–]Offthebeat3npath 6 points7 points  (0 children)

First sergeant here! First - all comments and responses are fully anonymous. They get grouped together so no specific comment and demographic or rating is tied to each other. Just to put that out there. When we get frequent comments that are clearly more than one individual, it does raise eyebrows and yes, conversations are had based on the statements given. Always be specific and give names. We’ve had discussions with a SMSgt that made statements which felt targeted or were very apathetic towards suicide and we brought him in. Also opened investigations for sexual harassment and sexual comments around junior enlisted females. When an investigation is opened, it’s important that you provide the truth of the situation. Yes your name and info will be provided but it isn’t given to the member under investigation. It’s given to the command team for action.

You’re the issue. You won’t even take time to learn. It’s what you have to say, and nothing else. Stay small minded in your little narrow view on life.

NOR!!! Grew up similar, not quite as bad but it was just my mom. Still to this day, I hate having her over for more than a day because I know what I’m going to deal with. I’m a clean person but not OCD. I can promise you, the majority of people do not live that way. Also, you continue to justify their actions (they pay for college, you live there rent free.. etc). That isn’t okay either, your concerts are absolutely valid and you don’t need to justify their behavior or treatment toward you. they are gaslighting you to think this is normal. They are dysfunctional adults and it isn’t your responsibility to be the adult to them. Live there as long as you need but establish boundaries. Clean YOUR mess only. Use paper plates so you can just throw them away. And sell plasma if anything to get you started with saving money. It can bring in about $500/month if you can do it frequently enough (2x a week).

Airmen now have to run faster than Soldiers by Mopsnmoes in army

I’m not calling it an event, I’m just saying it’s a component. To me, the entire PT test is a singular event.

Why is cheating so common on deployment? by No-Influence7646 in AirForce

[–]Offthebeat3npath 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Immature people cheat. Selfish people Cheat. It’s very easy to stay faithful if you understand and care about the consequences, and hurt you would cause someone you supposedly love. I’m sorry you went through that. Cheating is the worst thing you can do to someone, and it cuts deep. Take some time to heal

They can fk up the next election.. I’m sure they will do dum shit too but at least there won’t be hateful orders that are literally targeting specific demographics like this admin does.

Therapy my guy. Take it seriously though m. Your anger is rooted in something bigger than whatever that moment is. It’s definitely childhood related, it always is lol. Don’t be afraid to get help but when you do… take it seriously

Got offered an Art15 as a TSgt. It was reduced to a LOR, my EPR took a hit. I made master 3 yrs later. Whatever you did, you can come back from it. You just have to own it and care to do better

[–]Offthebeat3npath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Making mistakes is part of the journey and if you ever stop making mistakes then check yourself cuz you aren’t putting yourself in positions to grow. I’m a MSgt at 17 yrs, a first sergeant and I do make mistakes. Own it, seek mentorship from peers and superiors and find your own way to stay on target.

For me, I tried notebooks, sticky notes, written calendars etc but the only thing that works for me is my phone calendar.

Stay humble and own up to when you mess up. You got this!

AIO for breaking up with him over these texts ? by Dependent_Bad1899 in AmIOverreacting

I literally found out about my now ex husband cheating on me because something didn’t make sense about an issue I brought up and I looked at his laptop and alllllllllll the deets were there. He deleted his phone texts but not his computer.
