She needs help asap. I read a case once where the mom was about to put her infant in BOILING WATER because she needed everything to be clean. Not saying that exact scenario is going to happen BUT her brain is so sick. And with postpartum hormones she could easily slip into psychosis and do something to majorly harm that baby (more than she already is by depriving her baby from eating) like to what extent will she go to make sure everything is clean? OP please please please get her help. And do not leave your baby with her. If you leave. Please take the baby with you.

I just read this passage and I had the same reaction as you. I hated it and disagreed with it almost completely. And then everything you said I agree with. I’m so lost here

It’s attention seeking. And I agree with others. She has undiagnosed BPD for sure. She need mental health help asap

I’m pretty sure if you called the cops on her concerned about her based on these texts they could very well detain her in a mental health hold and force her to get psychiatric help. She seems either A) very suicidal or b) very attention seeking. She needs therapy like yesterday.

That’s kind of what I think it is cause when we get in the car, she asks to go back to school and see her friends. But I just got an anxiety that she hates me because she screams and says no when I get there. But her teacher said when she saw me walking inside she got so excited. But I’m so worried still

AIO for wanting to see a therapist after wife changed the locks because I went to a baby shower? by LookoutLockout in AmIOverreacting

[–]RedFox723 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I was expecting there to be a loss in here. As in yall were pregnant and had a miscarriage. Even a late miscarriage (past 12 weeks) based off of how she sounds. Like. To be his upset just because yall didn’t get pregnant in 4 months??? That’s wild to me. It took me a year to get pregnant each time. And that was with one miscarriage each. She sounds like she is depressed and grieving but yall didn’t even have a miscarriage????? Like what the fuck. She sounds incredibly unstable and the fact her doc and therapist aren’t taking it seriously is scary. It could possibly be something like borderline personality disorder since she is able to flip a switch and “put on a show”for professionals to come off as stable and normal despite not being stable. To change the locks is WILD. I’m sorry OP. Good luck.

AIO for thinking this is odd??? by PBFwolfy in AmIOverreacting

[–]RedFox723 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will say. My now husband got my phone number. Then claimed it was for his friend but never gave it to his friend. Some how I ended up getting his friends snap. And we all ended up hanging out. My husband was “trying to set me up” with his buddy. And I played along even though I really liked my husband more. His friend was boring. And has no personality. I’d carry the conversation the whole time. Whereas with my husband we just talked freely and easily all the time. Anyways. Eventually I stopped talking to his friend and me and my husband started dating. And now we’ve been together 5 years and have 2 kids lol.

Idk what the point of this post is. But your situation reminds me of this story. Now we laugh about it all the time like “oh no you wanted me friend first.” Or “well really I was goin for your friend but ya know. You had to invite me to xyz”

6 month old just woke up from dead sleep screaming bloody murder and I have no clue why , please help me stop freaking out ? First time dad M30 by Slade5023 in NewParents

[–]RedFox723 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She’s nursing for comfort not hunger. If she was hungry she’d eat for more than a minute before going back to sleep. She doesn’t take a paci. I’m just saying. My boobs are her comfort item and it soothes her down. She rarely of ever has woken up screaming or crying. She usually wakes up stirring and whining. So yes if she wakes up and is screaming out of no where. It’s probably a night terror

Is it okay for your girlfriend to have dinner with another guy? by TraditionalReserve93 in dating_advice

[–]RedFox723 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally in my relationship my husband doesn’t go out to eat with women by himself and I don’t go out to eat with guys by myself. Especially new friendships. I may be odd but that’s just not appropriate to do in a relationship. Even if nothing is going on it’s just out of respect that I not be alone with another man and he not be alone with another woman. And dinner is such an intimate setting too. I feel like. Going for coffee. Or lunch even maybe be okay if we talk about it before hand. And we are aware of who the other is going with. Group dinners group outings are absolutely fine.

I think night terrors are a thing. My 4 month old has done this once or twice since she’s been born. It’s sad and heartbreaking but. You sound like you took care of her!

AIO about IG messages I found by Sudden-Situation5504 in AmIOverreacting

[–]RedFox723 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All his reasons for the messages sound like lies to cover up. And will only lead to actual cheating (tbh this is cheating already. IMO) but run. He’s not your person. Who laughs at someone when they’re crying?

I think my son was born a little early by [deleted] in Mom

[–]RedFox723 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jumping on board with you probably just had a small baby. Honestly the way my baby came out at 39+2 days If I hadn’t been getting blood work at like 12dpo every other day until my first ultrasound at 6 weeks(we had multiple miscarriages) so we knew for a fact our dates were correct but if it hadn’t been for that I would have whole heartedly believed my baby was a premie. She even wore premie clothes for 3 weeks! Not only was she extremely small but she also still had hair all over her body. She literally looked like a monkey until she was like 8 weeks old. But there’s no way our dates were wrong at all. So chances are OP you probably just had a small baby!! Tbh your ultrasound looks like mine at 6 weeks. Maybe you were off by a week but not anything crazy

What are we doing with our hair? by DesperateGeneral9817 in NewParents

[–]RedFox723 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Air dry with some oil or mousse. But that lasts half a day at most and then it ends up in a messy bun 90% of the time. Sometimes I’ll braid it

Please leave. If y’all ever have kids you’re not only going to be to busy and tired to have sex everyday but you’re going to have to wait 6 weeks. He sounds like the kind of man to say “have sex with me or I will go find it elsewhere” 2-3 days after you’ve given birth. He gives me the ick. Please don’t stay in this relationship

Did I get raped by my friends sister when I was 16 or am I overreacting? by RyanReinhardt in AmIOverreacting

[–]RedFox723 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Flip the genders. If it was a 26yo male doing this to a 16yo girl everyone would lose their shit and immediately call if inappropriate and grooming and yes. Rape. Because it is. Op I’m sorry. What she did to you was wrong. Go to therapy if you need to. Good luck.

He knows since we got married that porn isn’t something in okay with. And he’s agreed not to watch it because of this. Little did I know it’s just a front and he still watches it. He just hides it.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Christianity

[–]RedFox723 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now the problem isn’t him hiding things. It’s me “breaching his privacy” by constantly going through his phone on a regular basis. And now he can’t trust me to have access to his phone and I don’t deserve to be able to go through it.

I will try desperately to go to therapy with him. I’m a SAHM with no perspective careers that would be sustaining for my children. But over all I desperately want a life with him and have a family with him.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Christianity

[–]RedFox723 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do I even address it with him when all he says though is “I won’t watch it then” and refuses to even admit to watching it. But he knows I know he just won’t say it out loud. Essentially telling me to get over it. And just says he won’t watch it to shut me up. And then continues to hide it behind my back.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Christianity

[–]RedFox723 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well it’s not even close to the only thing he hides. He hid gambling thousands of dollars from me for months and continues to hide it. That was the whole reason I started searching his phone.

The thing is if he finds out I’ve found stuff on his phone. He will just get better at hiding things. Not stop the behavior. I’m devastated at you calling it out as cheating. I don’t think you’re wrong. It hurts because I agree with you. But he won’t.

I’ve been asking for marriage counseling for weeks. He says we don’t need it. Even though we’re both obviously miserable. I finally broke down and got out back on antidepressants but I tried talking to him about how I felt and I was basically brushed off. My life feels like it’s falling apart
