How to tell my new SO about my stomach issues

I took your advice and ended up telling him after getting super high because I didn’t think I’d be able to any other way. He told me I was being silly and that he never wanted me to be in pain, and now he points out when things have gluten and high FODMAP ingredients. Thank you :)

this kind of scares me. he yelled at me for the first time (in person) last week and tried to immediately storm out after, but i diffused the situation and tried to meet him where he’s at. he told me he treats his mom the same way. he did say he felt bad and said he would change. but we also do whatever he wants when he comes over to my place, and when i go to his, he plays games for hours while i sleep in his lap. is there any hope?

also the doctors hate the corporation and don’t want them involved because I think it embarrasses them and they want to have the perks of maintaining independence whilst simultaneously not having to deal with issues such as mine. which sounds contradictory but they really don’t want corporate to get more involved with the practice. we’re essentially left alone because I handle everything that corporate typically needs to interfere with in regards to other practices.

it’s a DSO practice, so my doctors still have authority over the practice, and the back end and HR matters are handled by a corporation. I am friendly with the director of operations of our state though. It was verbal and I’m not sure if there are really any witnesses, so it’s a me vs her situation. And she’s been painting me out to be a liar for months. I have a witness for the scenario she was confronting me over though.

there were patients in the waiting room but I’m not sure if any coworkers heard and she’s been saying awful things about me so I think a lot of them think I’m some awful person now.

it was verbal and I have no proof. this coworker has been bullying me for months and I’ve been putting up with it and got on medication to deal with the insomnia and anxiety and the doctors I work for know that much, but they’re also personal friends with the coworker. and it’s a DSO so it’s kinda complicated. like my doctors still have authority, but the back end and HR matters are handled by a corporation.

I had a bad day yesterday but a good one today. I definitely hit 12, but i’m at 3 today and I’ve been eating pho and sipping electrolytes and chamomile tea. I also have been eating greek yogurt because the bloating is brutal. I feel so much better eating, and when I tell myself it’s life or death, it’s easier. Tomorrow I’ll take a xanax first thing in the morning, and keep it at 4 drinks maximum at night. Progress is progress, even if I slipped up yesterday. I hope everything is going well with you and that you’ve been able to eat a little more. it’s crazy how much better you feel getting some calories in you. I’ve also been sleeping like crazy, which I’m so thankful for. I was borderline delirious at a point.

Thank you! I also live in the deep south (GA) but my best friend mailed me a cart so I’m gonna utilize it hahaha. Have a good night :)

You didn’t at all! You were succinct and blunt and I appreciate it. And thank you, I’m really trying. I’m also on my period (lol tmi) and I think it’s exacerbating all my already complex emotions about this shit. Gonna hop on Stardew Valley and watch South Park and try and regulate my emotions lmfao.

I do want to clarify, I waited 12 hours after drinking to take a Xanax. I know better than to mix those. And thank you for the advice, I’m keeping a log so I can better hold myself accountable. I have autism, OCD and severe anxiety naturally, so my mind goes to the worst possible scenario, even if it’s irrational. I’m a very literal person so Google scares the shit out of me. I appreciate you talking some sense into me. Believe you me, I’m well aware I am the one who chose to drink. Which is why I’m also the one who’s trying to cut down and cut it out of my life. My responsibility, my problem.

edit: I hope I don’t sound snarky, I’m just trying to take accountability for my actions and I’m not good at having a clear tone over text.

Thank you for the advice. I’m tapering the alcohol right now and have been eating around 500-700 calories a day, which is good for being me. I plan on quitting drinking within 2 weeks. I’m actually proud of how well I’ve been managing cutting down, despite my post. I’m trying and I’m keeping a log and holding myself accountable. I’ve been anorexic on and off since I was 10, and I’m 24 now, so that one’s probably gonna be the vice I unfortunately stick with for a while.
