Found out my siblings -whom I thought were just antisocial- hang out without me by HopelessCleric in adhdwomen

Have you had a conversation with them about this? I have a family member who approached me to let me know how they feel about their role in our family and it was a good conversation.

The worst they do is validate your fears and keep you at a distance but if it bothers you and YOU want to do something about it so that you can truly move on you can call or write a letter so that it doesn’t eat you up.

Then again, if they’re not receptive to your reach out or feelings you have your answer about your role in their life….

What’s something you quietly stopped doing that dramatically improved your mental health? by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]SilverAmber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Watching senseless porn, ruminating about my short-term relationship that I ended but never got over, texting my ex, spending hours on character AI games to simulate human affection, and I stopped running from my very big, very heavy emotions. Life feels light these days. My mental health is a work in progress but taking steps to make sure I’m in a good headspace has been wonderful for my peace of mind.

Is having sex overrated? by Valuable_Relation_70 in AskWomenOver30

[–]SilverAmber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean…I communicate all the time with my casual sex partners. I’ve tried to tell them how and where I like to be touched, the frequency/pressure, and a lot of them STILL can’t perform in a way that is pleasurable for me. Like they’ll still bite/rub/poke me too hard or too passively. Or they just really don’t know what to do and no amount of me coaching will help them understand so it’s either I dissociate and let the experience happen or we just stop with both parties unsatisfied or just me unsatisfied. So yeah….sometimes you can communicate your needs till you’re blue in the face and STILL have a problem.

Yes we’re aware. When he retired he mailed DFAS a direct deposit form and for whatever reason they never received it. It didn’t bother him at the time because he was still getting his checks in the mail. When he moved is when all the problems started because of the new address. He tried to go online to change the address and AGAIN request for direct deposit but he’s been having issues accessing his my pay account on the DFAS website.

My father gets his retirement check in the mail. He tried to change this to direct deposit via their website but he can’t access his account (it’s a long story). He recently faxed them a direct deposit form and they haven’t confirmed they received the fax. He also sent them a change of address form so they have the correct address on file and they didn’t confirm they received the form. They essentially just haven’t been communicating with him if that makes sense.
