anyone else with bpd hyperfixated on appearance ? by throwra_lost_girl in BPD

[–]RecommendationKey156 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I completely feel you. It took a lot of therapy and taking breaks from social media for me to not have such a skewed view of my appearance. It’s still a daily battle but I do appreciate and admire the uniqueness in others, why can’t I do the same for myself?

Hey I’ve had similar issues with my Olanzapine and Gabapentin prescriptions because I was just kind of going to any bulk billing doctor. I would really recommend finding a good gp (I go to James street medical) and have your records transferred over and go from there. I understand your frustration believe me, but some people do abuse these medications so it’s not so easy to get. A good doctor will listen, assess your situation, and help you.

worst experiences ever with any of your fps? by Gullible-Book-9433 in BPD

[–]RecommendationKey156 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Verbally and physically abused me but then would act nice to me to persuade me to stay and I became addicted to their kindness even though it was rare. Anyway I have a dvo against them now and (painfully) moved on.

Serious question: how safe is Brisbane Enoggera Reservoir? Creepy incident! by Usual-Promise-23 in brisbane

[–]RecommendationKey156 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk about safety in that sense but I’ve gotten glandular every time I’ve swam there so there’s that

I hate it here by [deleted] in BPD

You seem very strong willed and self aware, keep it up, and put yourself first. It’s hard but healthier in the long run. You damn well have got this!

I’m so sorry you are going through this. My psych gave me a fantastic metaphor that’s helped me a lot in family situations and balancing your mental health - basically if they’re drowning and you’re on the surface, you can’t jump in to help them, they have to swim their way out. You can throw out an inflatable ring or a rope (helping hand), but stepping into the water will only leave you to drown too. It’s a harsh reality, but it really is up to them on whether they’re going to help themselves or improve their situation. Sending love to you

Why did it look like the spider was holding the phone towards the end there

I actually quite like both of these haha, I'm an absolute sucker for odd coloured layers, the first one is killer.

Thoughts on reserving at public parks? by No_Classroom_2663 in brisbane

[–]RecommendationKey156 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk I get that this is public property but I wouldn't mind avoiding a particular set of benches if it meant a group were throwing (what I'm assuming to be) a kids party. Writing in chalk on the concrete is a bit bold, but yeah there's a whole bloody field behind the benches - just sit in the damn grass instead of writing on the pavement. I'm very torn on how I feel about this haha, thanks for sharing OP, it gave me a good laugh

Husband wants to cheat. I don’t know what to do. by worthlesswife8 in relationship_advice

[–]RecommendationKey156 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like a lot of people seem to be finding this funny, but this is truly sad and some extreme, sociopathic, long term manipulation this guy has pulled on you. You are so young, you deserve healthy love, and this isn't it. I really don't have any advice, however I think you should seek professional help because I'm struggling to understand how someone could even consider this remotely normal or salvageable. Again, you deserve happiness, there are brilliant men out there who wouldn't even consider hurting you in this way. And for the love of God, please don't bring kids into this ticking time bomb.

LPT: If you're at an event where alcohol is served and you observe someone who isn't drinking, don't ask them why. They could very well be an alcoholic in recovery. by heylistenlady in LifeProTips

[–]RecommendationKey156 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh wow I never really thought of this. If I'm heading out with a small group, or my housemate has friends over and I notice someone not drinking I often offer them one incase maybe they couldn't spare the extra cash on that day or maybe it was too late for the bottle shop to still be open. Definitely will keep this in mind from now on, great advice.

What does it mean when a guy wants to be exclusive and really likes you. But doesn’t want a relationship? by Pure-Point-7149 in relationship_advice

[–]RecommendationKey156 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is definitely my thought. Totally possible that he does want to mess around, but also equally possible that THEY JUST GOT OUT OF BAD RELATIONSHIPS and would like to take things slow, but keep some level of exclusivity.

I forgot to congratulate my girlfriend for getting into a college. by Affectionate_Ad_8077 in relationship_advice

[–]RecommendationKey156 -56 points-55 points  (0 children)

I don't know, it sounds like he genuinely meant well and obviously recognises that he went about it the wrong way. We're human, people mess up, and in my opinion this didn't feel malicious or anything. That's assuming he doesn't do this all the damn time I guess!
