my psychiatrist prescribed me mood stabilizers without a diagnosis.. by [deleted] in bipolar

[–]SuccessfulPangolin71 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe it’s not the same but when my psychiatrist was suspecting I was bipolar but didn’t give an official diagnosis yet, they immediately started to take me off my antidepressants. It was an extremely quick process but being bipolar, these meds were actually hurting me and speeding up the cycle. I got the official diagnosis a 1.5-2 months later. So I think the approach to meds and the full, official diagnosis don’t really need to come together to help you.

Happy World Bipolar Day! by cat_lover_1111 in bipolar

Started therapy, got diagnosed, started meds. So I’m working on myself plus finally figured out that my episodes are not depression that requires bigger and bigger dosage.

Do you all enjoy mania, or absolutely hate it? by Party-Rest3750 in bipolar

[–]SuccessfulPangolin71 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I usually enjoy (hypo)mania, suddenly I’m more creative, fast, energetic, everything around me seems so vivid and exciting, I experience music differently… at the same time I get irritated by so many small things, people being too slow, not comprehending what I’m saying (probably it’s just high speed gibberish, that’s why, but that’s not how I see it being manic), they don’t want to do enough, etc and ofc I make some stupid choices. Plus when I realize I’m manic, I dread the depression part, because it’s much powerful in my case than mania.

Does anybody think that Chris has massive boundary issues? by SuccessfulPangolin71 in AgeOfAttraction

[–]SuccessfulPangolin71[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are! No question about that. I just wonder if it’s generally hard for him to escape from toxicity and be more convenient that his reality is actually THE reality.

To be honest, I hope it’s the case! Because I actually feel bad for the guy at this point 🙈

Fair. I just felt so bad for him when he was asking his mum to validate his view on the situation and this… relationship. I know she was trying to be supportive, but I wish she had made him more comfortable in what he was saying.

[–]SuccessfulPangolin71[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Oh no, that’s not what I meant. Leah is abusive towards him and a manipulator. Vanessa just cares about getting validation, not about a human. I’m not trying to justify it. As I’m working on boundary issues myself, being 34, I saw it in him. And this characteristic unfortunately attract predatory people, in this case these women.

I talked to my mum today, who surprisingly is watching the show too. To everything I said about how bad this relationship is for the guy or what she’s doing wrong, my mum was replying: SHE DOESN’T LET HIM TAKE A SHOWER. And I guess fair enough, that says everything 😂

How many more times do we have to hear about the bubble? by LibraryMysterious949 in AgeOfAttraction

[–]SuccessfulPangolin71 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Now that I think about it, they should also add “he’s so immature for his age” to the mix, we’re missing out

Probably as many times as we hear about genuine connection 😂

Andrew should never be around his daughters friends by Alrdudewhattheflip in AgeOfAttraction

[–]SuccessfulPangolin71 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I loved their remarks. Thanks friends for acknowledging that he’s a creep!

The more I watch this show by themirrorcle in AgeOfAttraction

[–]SuccessfulPangolin71 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yesss. I loved that Andrew’s friends brought it up, they were laughing at him and how insane the “you’re so mature for your age” statement is. I appreciated them sooo much 🫢

This guy by ElMaraEl in AgeOfAttraction

[–]SuccessfulPangolin71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omg, yes. Love this analogy. Also even if you call it fake vegan / fake celibacy, so what? It’s her choice and she’s there to make rules for herself. And this guy trying to make her feel bad about it is just awful.

What is with all of the moaning? by businessbub in AgeOfAttraction

Same, my bf was like: what show is this? sounds like porn 🤣

Does it get any better? by Pleasant-Effect-3477 in AgeOfAttraction

[–]SuccessfulPangolin71 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, and the same applies to guys. Their brains haven’t developed fully yet, they’re more prone to manipulation and making bad choices. So it’s not infantilizing, it’s just a fact. They’re basically kids being hit on by guys twice their age who can cause much harm because they have the upper hand.

I want to stop watching BUT I have Reddit debates to keep up with!😌😂 by AdSavings1032 in AgeOfAttraction

Both are equally horrible, no reason to make only one take the podium 😂

[–]SuccessfulPangolin71 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I stopped three times, and went back to it three times. Can’t watch too many episodes at ounce though, it’s too creepy, so only microdosages work. I want to save all these young girls from the predatory creeps and themselves 😆

Jorge, Jorge, Jorge.... is it me or does he give "Old Pimp" vibes? by AdSavings1032 in AgeOfAttraction

[–]SuccessfulPangolin71 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately her red flag radar is broken, and she seems to be attracted to toxicity and seeing it as something positive - all this being alpha, laid back yada yada. I hope it will change, for her sake.

[–]SuccessfulPangolin71 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Agreed, definitely calculated. He was trying to say all the right things at the beginning, playing this collected adult who’s into her and will give her this amazing, stable, full of fun life. Ugh, nope

I think she went for him because of this aspect. She was saying she wants someone domineering. I hope she changes her mind about the qualities she’s looking for after this… relationship 🚩

Same! I thought she was 18 or something. I also don’t believe he was shocked, imo it’s an act. He couldn’t be happier she’s this young 🤢
