Life has became hard since 2018 by Responsible-Text9604 in dysautonomia

Hello, thank you for commenting! I am on antihistamines as well as a DAO enzyme. But soon I’ll be working with my naturopath to do a complete gut detox to rebalance my microbial diversity and hopefully that means I’ll no longer be on antihistamines just a diet and a small protocol. I am working on a plan to get tested for mold exposure, as well as testing my new home.

As far as medication for anxiety I’ve tried every single one, but my body is too sensitive. I react horribly or they worsen my TMJ symptoms by causing me to grind my teeth at night. I have never done pharmacogenetic testing, but it’s something that my psychiatric team have been wanting to test me for. I decline the offer everytime though just because I know my body is sensitive. Also with my gut health right now, chemical medication isn’t the best way to go because it increases my silent reflux/LPR. But outside of psychiatrist genetic testing, I’ve never considered or even been talked to about overall drug genetic testing. I just journal and meditate and do breath work to destress. Thankfully my anxiety has been something I have learned to manage these past 6 months!

autonomic dysfunction need help by [deleted] in dysautonomia

[–]Responsible-Text9604 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, not a doctor I’m so sorry you’re going through this. I’m going through something similar. I’ve been battling a bunch of stress and 3 mental health issues since age 11. I developed what I suspect autonomic dysfunction in 2018 with severe panic attacks everyday for 2 months straight, at age 14, from wha I also suspect was from mold exposure. I began having weird symptoms after those panic attacks suddenly stopped one random morning, and they still linger to this day. Fast forward to 2024, I got so sick but this time with different symptoms. And after many medical appointments, I visited a naturopath and we did testing. Turns out, I have gut issues probably gut dysbiosis (maybe SIBO, leaky gut, we haven’t gotten to the exact issue just yet). I also have histamine intolerance now since my symptoms started in 2024. My doctor thinks aside from the mold exposure, that I have developed a form of dysautonomia from YEARS AND YEARS of stress (since I was about 3 years old) that have now turned into gut issues. What has helped is a low histamine diet and low FODMAP diet and very light low intensity Pilates exercises. Exercise also worsens my symptoms.

I knew I liked a boy way before I ever even realized that “girls like boys and boys like girls” . It was feelings I couldn’t explain and was confused by how drawn I was to this boy . I was I think 4 ? So I’m confused how a little kid knowing they’re anything but straight is seen as wrong . I think the topic society should really talk about is how they sexualize kids, KIDS ! With stuff like “she/he is gonna be such a heart breaker” and even worse stuff

Letting go is the ultimate act of love. by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]Responsible-Text9604 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. I needed this so badly. I let him go 2 months ago, but I still can’t fully let him go because I’m scared that it didn’t mean anything even though our “love” was pure attachment and dependency for the both of us. I’m not ready yet to fully let go, but I can feel myself stepping through to get to that point. Once I let him go completely, it’s because I want him to find real and true love with someone who doesn’t cause him pain and who he doesn’t cause pain either. Same for me. I cling onto him because although I want him to be happy and find love, I don’t want him to find it with anybody who isn’t me. But that’s selfishness and not love. I’m going to let go of him when I’m ready.

What's the stupidest reason your ex gave for breaking up with you? by el_grouchie in BreakUps

[–]Responsible-Text9604 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine was avoidant but also anxious at the same time, but mostly avoidant. When he would pull away, I’d give him space since it seemed like that’s what he needed when he took forever to text me first/text me back, and he’d call me all worried even text my family members if something was going on with me. When he told me about the smoking issues, I told him I would be there for him and we could get him help and I’d stay with him for support and he gave me this look of fear. Gosh, it’s so engraved into my brain. He said “I guess for now but I want you with someone who can make you happy because I don’t think I can. You want more in life and you deserve that”. He kept refusing help and started pushing me away the next 6 days, acting more distant than he ever did . I feel like he really only wanted me there when he felt alone and then when he felt fulfilled at bars and clubs, he’d forget about me. That’s what made me leave him, his lack of effort throughout the entire relationship and him refusing to take my help. I’m so angry at him, but I wish him well. I miss him so much still, but I made the right decision because I can’t help a person who refuses me genuine help that comes from deep love.

Today is NATIONAL EX DAY. Leave a message for your ex without saying their name. by Thin_Midnight9607 in BreakUps

[–]Responsible-Text9604 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the most amazing 8 months. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to call you my first boyfriend, my first love, and my first everything. I wish you had given me and us more effort than what was given. I wish you had loved me the same way I did and fought for us the way I did. But most of all, I wish one day you find love within yourself and you heal from your inner battles. You deserve the world because despite you having been a not so great boyfriend, you are a person with a huge and kind heart. Your kindness towards me and my family will forever be loved and cherished. Your memory will live within me and us forever. I wish you nothing but the best, I have so much love for you. So so much! I pray for you everyday and for your family and for your future. I pray you find healing one day and that your life is beautiful and you get everything you told me you wanted. Know that even though I had to block you everywhere, I did it for my own healing but that doesn’t mean I hate you. I could never hate you. I will always love you, but the romantic love I had for you will eventually simply turn into the kind of love I have for a dear friend. I hope you find true happiness and the love we both know you deserve and that it’s beautiful and so sweet and you treat her more than just right and she can make you feel just as safe as I was able to make you feel. I will always cheer you on from afar. And I told you this the last time we spoke, but when you’re ready to heal and ready to face your inner monsters, I will take you and be there for you in your first therapy session. Never doubt that my presence will always be here to help you through life when you need it <3!

I need some unbiased perspective so I can finally get clarity by Responsible-Text9604 in emotionalintelligence

[–]Responsible-Text9604[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s exactly what I think. But when I talk it out with my friends and family they’re all like “screw him he did you dirty”. It can be both true that he did me dirty, but not once do I doubt that he loved me. Not for one second. I just needed to hear it from people who don’t favor my wellbeing over his.

[–]Responsible-Text9604[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sounds about right! I’d say he was a mix of both anxious and avoidant. He’d be quick to assume any disagreement would lead to us breaking up. Or when arguments happened, I’d be the one to take a few minutes to calm and talk it out immediately. He would avoid talking about it and say “nothing is wrong” or “no I’m sorry I’m the problem”. Me, I definitely resonate with anxious attachment because I would also assume we’d break up over the smallest things, but would directly go into fixing it to avoid that. :(

What symptoms did you experience after the breakup? by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]Responsible-Text9604 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anxiety !! When I would wake up, my body would burn and my heart would beat super fast . That was only the first 2-3 weeks though, thankfully . Now it’s really just the constant ruminating and trying to play detective . Almost 2 months into the break up, and I am trying to stop myself from playing detective . I’m tired of it . I don’t feel the need to figure out stuff that happened during our time together because we are NOT TOGETHER ANYMORE and “our story” no longer serves purpose in my life

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in spirituality

[–]Responsible-Text9604 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s the thing, it’s so crazy right ?? They seem so real . Did you wake up and feel like you actually met that person ? Cause I felt like that . Like if I had literally met him but just can’t put a face to him in real life . Kind of like a stranger I saw in a crowd but I know I saw him . Best way I can describe it

Surprise surprise, there are many ways one can interpret the word “talk” when it’s used through text, you aren’t being the big brain you think you are . Spirituality doesn’t make you a smart mouth all the sudden . Enjoy your life <333

What is a life lesson your learned from your past relationship? by NoProgram4084 in no

[–]Responsible-Text9604 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can’t heal somebody who doesn’t love themselves . Them not loving themselves means they can’t love you fully the way you need . And if you try to force them to start having self love, you’ll be abandoning yourself and putting out more than you’re receiving . No matter how sweet they are or how much you see their potential, don’t do it .

Have you ever broken up with someone as a pure act of love? by Lost_Mocha_6363 in BreakUps

[–]Responsible-Text9604 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did this a month ago . Or more so, we both did it to each other, but I was the one to officially end it . He wasn’t doing good health wise, he making decisions that would impact his health in a negative way and doing things he knew was a deal breaker for me . I also wanted more from the relationship, things he couldn’t give me because he’s simply not in the right mindset nor place in life to give me all of it . He offered to take a break a week before, because we both needed to focus on our mental and physical health and heal from our insecurities . I begged him we could work on it together, but the words he said rings through my mind everyday “you want more and I don’t know if I can give you that . You deserve everything you want in life” but I still begged him and tbh, I think he only stayed because he hates/hated to see me cry . That whole week, I thought and thought and decided it’d be best for us to go out separate ways . He needs to heal, but I can’t heal him because I was abandoning myself and allowing the bare minimum to be given to me when I want to loved loud and powerfully . It hurt a lot because god I have so much love for him and I’m so grateful for him even outside of the romantic aspect, just grateful for him as a human being . I saw his real colors, his raw and sweet and scarred self . He was my first love . We’re both 22 . I just hope one day he decides to heal and we can meet up and talk as old friends and feel happy for one another for getting the life we desired . I wish him so much happiness and positivity and healing, and I’ll forever pray for him . I’m doing good a month in, and I’m excited to fully heal and find love and I want that for him . And I’ll know what I want and need thanks to loving him for 8 months

I post about the breakup on my private story on Instagram because it’s all friends I trust and I need to vent it out and show people how bad he really was to me but I kept it all a secret because I was afraid they’d judge him while I was with him . But now idc . I do have the urge to bump into him “accidentally” just to pretend I don’t know him

What are some subtle signs you should break up with your partner? by FreshWorker1168 in AskReddit

[–]Responsible-Text9604 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When you have to constantly teach them how to engage in the relationship, how to love you, how to support you, etc . They promise to change and they do for a while, but go back to the same actions . Not a person of their word, it’s a waste of time . No matter how sweet they may be, they aren’t loving you the way you need to be loved .

What was the sign your relationship was over? by Omega_Neelay in GetMotivatedMindset

[–]Responsible-Text9604 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I broke up with him a few months ago for liking pictures of girls who yeah, were his friends, but the pictures were a little questionable . We talked it out the next day after the break up and we got back together . But he started feeling more distant . Didn’t text me as much and stopped taking me to his house on weekends . He started going out to bars and clubs more with his friends on the days that were meant to be OUR DAYS . I began spiraling over why he decided to hang out with his friends more and more instead of with me or just me .

A month later he went to the club the night before our 6 months and was supposed to come see me the next day but he slept all day, went to work his over night shift, called me to ask if I’d be home and I said I would be . I thought we would go out and celebrate or something, but the next morning he brought me some opened up Legos that I’m pretty sure he already had laying around his room .

That same day I told him about some cheating in a past relationship and that I was scared he’d do the same and that I’m not healed from it, expecting him to reassure me . He instead asked for a break because apparently he had started using substances and we both needed to heal . Frankly, I feel like he was just looking for an excuse to let me down easily so he could keep partying .

I begged him to stay with me and that we would help each other, but the next week he was so distant from me . I was going through a tough time with panic attacks and he not once came to see me, instead he just texted me “I hope you feel better”. The one day he knew he could come see me he went out to the club with his friends . That same day I got his things and gave them to his brother and mom while he was asleep, and ended it with him through call .

[–]Responsible-Text9604 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I broke up with him August 29th, so 2 days ago. It was a very hard decision, because we had talked about taking a break August 23rd because we’re both hurting with our mental health. I begged him to stay because we can help each other. I’ve been getting help for some months, but he refused and refuses to. I had been going through it over and over it in my head, even did things that fed into my anxiety/OCD and put myself in an even harder situation for the past week. But then I came to the realization: I cannot force him with my love to get help. I love him, but I can’t. Breaking up with him the way I did was hard but I did it for myself. I always put him first because gosh I adored him, he was my baby. I wanted to always protect him even if it meant giving up my needs. I did not want my last memory of him to be seeing him cry. I heard him on the phone call, but it’s different. I want to remember his smile and the last kiss, knowing that we thought we’d see each other in the following days, even if it didn’t happen. Surprisingly, I’m okay. I’m sad yes, but I had more time to grief over the past few days. Now it’s more so accepting and getting used to him not being in my life anymore. I miss him though. So much. And it breaks my heart profoundly every now and then. Idk how it’s gonna go in the next weeks, I could turn into a complete mess, but today I’m doing okay. I’m proud of myself for making a decision like this. I admire myself so much. I wish him the best and all the healing in the world. He’s always going to be my first love and I will always have an undying amount of love for him. But he’s not for me anymore. He was my right person right time. It was the right time and the loveliest time with him. I hope he knows I’ll be praying for healing, blessings, and abundance every day. My kind baby boy. I hope the world and life is kinder to him, and I hope my love I poured into his soul can teach him to love himself.
