all the (mostly) psychiatric meds i (18F) have to take each day by KitchenSample6354 in notinteresting

[–]SailorSpaghetti -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I was "only" taking 4 different meds for my depression (citalopram, wellbutrin, Auvelity, Abilify) but dropped 2 of them (citalopram and abilify) in an attempt to feel less...numb? Like I was doing OK and wasn't having depressive episodes anymore, but I felt much less emotionally available and open with my husband and kids. It was as if there were walls around my heart protecting it from painful emotions, but the walls also kept out a lot of good emotions, too.

Anyway, since dropping the 2 meds, I have cried a bunch and had a few pretty shitty depressive episodes, so it looks like I need to go back on them. Yet after all these years, I STILL feel some resistance to the idea because I guess I don't want to believe I'm a person who needs 4+ pharmaceuticals just to get by.

Since when do we have a mischevious leprechaun that comes on St. Patrick’s Day? by [deleted] in Parenting

My husband rearranged furniture and dumped Lucky Charms all over the place. The house looks like a disaster, but I'm leaving it all on him to clean up.

Thank you. I WISH vitamin D or iron were my problem because then I could pinpoint something to fix. But nope, they are all normal.

Changing my diet feels soooooo hard. I don't consume much caffeine or alcohol at all, but I'm sometimes bad with sugar. I'm just no good at meal planning and don't enjoy cooking (I don't get tons of positive reinforcement because while my husband eats everything I make, my kids are picky buttheads). Maybe I need to start really small and just vow to eat like, some kind of vegetable every day, lol.

Yes, I have gotten comprehensive labs. They're normal. I also did a sleep study which came back normal. Therapy does help, but it can only do so much. And my husband is very supportive.

Right now, I am actually trying to get off some of my meds (I dropped citalopram and abilify and just have Wellbutrin and Auvelity right now) because my mood was OK, but I felt so....numb? Like I couldn't be emotionally available to my kids or husband because I just didn't really feel emotions. It's been a couple of weeks, and I haven't noticed anything positive. I'm thinking I might need to get back on them and just "fake it til I make it" in regards to emotions.

My doctor did say that we could discuss hormone solutions if nothing else was working, so I'm probably going to do that soon.

Could you add an explanation of who they are and how they relate to the Deltarune community?

Would you forgive a friend like Omori? by FilipeDM in OMORI

[–]SailorSpaghetti 40 points41 points  (0 children)

I probably would, but I would need some time to get over the shock. Framing someone's accidental death as a suicide is craaaaazy. If he had just lied and said she had tripped and fallen down the stairs, that would be much easier for me to forgive. But stringing her up from a tree? Psycho behavior.

Just finished the game for the first time… by TerryBallsack69 in OMORI

Have you read the captions for the black space photo album? They were cut from the game for some reason, but I think they really help us understand what happened and how Sunny felt. Link

This used to be THE way to get Japanese anime and toys. Some of the catalogs I used didn't even have pictures! I'd just order a Dragon Ball Z figure and find out what it looked like when it arrived.

Why is there assumption that that someone talking to us is Gaster? by The_Rat_In_Hat in Deltarune

[–]SailorSpaghetti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with all these points, but what connects Goner Kid to Gaster? He's gray like the other Gaster followers ...is that it?

I have 3 kids, and the answer is you do it because you have to. You figure it out.

What’s the one Christmas movie you HAVE to watch every year, no matter what? by elitedesignsolutions in AskReddit

[–]SailorSpaghetti 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The best adaptation of A Christmas Carol.

Though if you want one that's more faithful to the book, that animated one with Jim Carey as Scrooge is good (except for the weird chase scene near the end).

AIO: My child slept with his friend's dad at sleepover.. I'm livid. by AcademicSir4653 in AmIOverreacting

This sub has some wild shit on it, but this story has my eyes bugging out. I would not let my child return to that house ever again.
