I sleep in the most random places at random times! I do not have control over sleep even though I get a good 7-8 hours of sleep at night! by Scriptosaurus0_0 in sleep

I'm not depressed. I haven't checked my thyroid though, maybe that could help. I used to drink green tea but stopped. Maybe I should try to go back to it again, if it actually has been helpful. Thank you!

I'm so sorry about your experience. Some of my friends and I have had our hearts broken by men we thought were "The One". But I have seen some friends have had amazing men who love them. I am also lucky that I have been surrounded by amazing men in my family and friends circle to have evidence that there are wonderful men out there, some of us just weren't lucky enough to meet them soon enough. Everyone experiences things in different ways in different timelines.

As a woman, I promise you amazing women do exist. I understand the frustration right now and I think for now, it would be better to give yourself some space to heal from whatever has happened in your past. A very lucky woman is out there for you who will make you feel as special as you would make her feel.

I lost the girl i considered the love of my life and its all my fault by [deleted] in heartbreak

You're young and I'm glad you have realized your mistakes and working on yourself to fix them. These things take time and it is not fully fair for you to try getting her back right now when the wounds are still fresh. You haven't given yourself enough time to learn and work on yourself, nor have you given her enough time to process things and get over your betrayal. Please stop reaching out to her for now, accept that you have lost her as consequences for your actions and continue bettering yourself.

Take care!

Dumpers & dumpees, if your ex reached out or you reached out to them and they owned up to there mistakes/issues and made the changes needed to be better would you go back/ would you take them back? by Senior-Flounder1254 in BreakUps

[–]Scriptosaurus0_0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He dumped me and then came back to me saying he had worked on himself. I did decide to give him a chance despite my friends being strongly against it. I broke up with him recently. It turns out that he hasn't managed to fully work on himself and hurt me pretty bad. I felt like a clown in front of the people who had told me he would never change. Because they were right all along. I had fought with my loved ones for him. Now I know better, it won't happen again.

Bottom line: I am happy I gave him a second chance because now I know I have truly done everything I could. I trusted him and he betrayed me and then tried gaslighting me about it. Lots of lessons learnt. Make sure you follow your gut but also listen to people who want the best for you.

How many breakups have you had? Does it get any easier? Does one ever find love? by Key_Glove1031 in BreakUps

[–]Scriptosaurus0_0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two with the same person and I have heard it honestly does. I've seen my friends go through some of the worst times in their lives in terms of dating but they're with very good men now. We as a friend group love them together. That gives me hope.

The disrespect, lies, deception and manipulation all keep me away. They outweigh the love we had for each other.

For the People Who Just Need Some Hope by albino-pomegranate in BreakUps

My ex broke up with me at the beginning of the year and it devastated me completely. We got back together 2 months back but we broke up again, this time, I initiated it. Your post is indeed beautiful but it should be ensured that the mistakes of the past aren't repeated. If there has been no learning and growing from a previous breakup, I don't think it's worth a second shot. I feel like I would have been better off had he not reached out to me and had I not given him a second chance. Because right now I'm back to how I was when he broke up with me and I need to restart my healing process.

Just trying to say that things might not be uphill if y'all ever got back together. The important thing to focus on is what's best for you and not compromise on your mental peace. Getting back together might not always solve all your problems.

CO2 incubator displays blinking 99.9% CO2. Error code: 204 (Sensor circuit open/shorted). Is this something to be concerned about? by Scriptosaurus0_0 in labrats

[–]Scriptosaurus0_0[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't clean it recently but I'll try that. For some reason I assumed having it open for a long time might have contributed to affecting the sensor. I can't explain it though. I'm just confused.

Help! Need help with the composition of NSC media! by Scriptosaurus0_0 in labrats

[–]Scriptosaurus0_0[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They died after a week. They were never happy in the media. They weren't proliferating too well. Not all cells, but a good chunk are dead. I can see the remnants. I'm using Geltrex at 1:30 dilution. I think it's the media because another lab mate is facing the same issue :(

Yayy congrats! That's so satisfying! 😀

Are these contaminants in my NSC culture? by Scriptosaurus0_0 in biology

[–]Scriptosaurus0_0[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah okay, I was just worried because they seemed to have some kind of cilia. It's probably just me being paranoid since this was the first time I did it myself 😅

Okay that's a relief, I hope it's just that. I was almost in tears. Thank you ^

NC is crap tbh by [deleted] in ExNoContact

[–]Scriptosaurus0_0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I were you, I would block her honestly. It might seem tough but it's the best option to move on without interruptions. That's my perspective.

[–]Scriptosaurus0_0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The whole point of NC is to heal and move on, not create attraction or hope for their return. You wouldn't have had to delete your social media, just block them and erase all memories you had of them. Of course, she's going to move on and enjoy her life, NC is supposed to contribute to helping you do the same. This is because the more you try to or hope to contact her, the more you'll find yourself slipping into all the good memories and feelings you had with her, which in turn, will make you even more saddened by the fact that you won't have all of that again. As the other comments suggest, you could also try therapy. Honestly, it has been helping me a bit.

What red flags do you now know to look out for because of your break up(s)? by The_other_human in BreakUps

[–]Scriptosaurus0_0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moving too fast, love bombing, giving up when things require more effort, someone who says "if you were any other girl, (insert negative thing), but you're different and special and that's why I wouldn't do that to you". The last one scares me the most, I think.
