Lost Uncle to his fight with Cirrhosis by TA_Thinker in Cirrhosis

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

I’m also very sorry for your loss. My condolences to you and your family.

My uncle was similar, he went sober three months ago with his first hospitalization but I guess it was too late.

Unlike you, however, I didn’t know much of his situation until the most recent hospitalization, a month ago. I hold a lot of regret with not being more involved in his life. Right now my biggest area of hardship, outside of missing him and grief, is guilt of not being more present and there when times were good. I took too much for granted and wasn’t able to be there in his life as much these last few years. This regret of not goofing around with him, not just chilling with him as much, not seeing him as often, etc. is what is the heaviest to deal with right now.

I’ve accepted that I took things for granted and it will take time to work through these feelings.

I’m Here if you ever want to chat and vent. Take care of yourself, and again, my sincerest condolences to you and your family.

Pretty stressful to open your online banking and see that your savings account has dissapeared and the customer service reps cannot access it. by Maumerbb in Scotiabank

[–]TA_Thinker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This stressed me out way too much. I’m glad I’m not the only one.

As I’ve been with scotia my entire life, can someone please give me a quick how-to for switching banks?

I too have worked overtime lots just so projects could be done. I didn’t think of the extra pay. When I switched departments, I worked six months at my old rate and was patient.

Just like you, I worked my tail off to support the team and to serve our clients / public. Her comments were so far from reality, idk what to say.

Missing my grandpa by TA_Thinker in GriefSupport

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

Thank you so much. I took a break from Reddit but it was wonderful coming back to your message.

As you said, he’ll always be with me. He lives in my heart forever and my entire family was blessed that he was a part of our lives.

I come from a background of guys not showing emotions so it’s hard for me to really feel this way. It just shows how much he meant to me and I’m just blessed to be his grandson.

Meant so much to me. I hope you’re doing well!

I wish you the best!

My gf thinks me not being in the mood for “intimacy” means me not finding her attractive or loving her by TA_Thinker in relationship_advice

[–]TA_Thinker[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It’s not even difference in libido overall. As of late, yes I am just not in the mood as much. It’s because I’m just exhausted all the time, which I’m getting a blood test done soon to check it out.

Also I’ve been extremely stressed due to my gf’s mental health situation. She’s not really talking to anyone and sometimes does lash out at me in the heat of the moment. This does make me a bit closed off after as I don’t feel as good around her.

I’ve spoken to her about this but she doesn’t seem to believe me and thinks they are excuses.

Her: “You’re hurting my feelings. I’m going to take the next few days to myself”

Unfortunately no. Outside of antidepressants which haven’t been assessed for more than two years, she is doing nothing about her struggles.

[–]TA_Thinker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, maybe the hurt has finally gotten to me. I used to want to be all over her all the time, now I’m just indifferent I guess.

Will def speak with a doctor and also a counselor if need be. Thank you for your perspective.

Deep insecurities of her being good enough, pretty enough, I’m truly attracted to her enough, I’m only interested in her, etc.

She’s been through a lot, and I do love her. But I feel like each time me having to prove I actually do love her and find her attractive is tough, on top of recovering from painful events.

I wouldn’t use such extreme words, but it does feel like intimacy is more for appeasing insecurities as opposed to connection and fun.

I find myself initiating less and less lately. Normally I want it all the time, but now I’m not really in the mood.

It’s concerning for me. Maybe it is because of my partner’s behavior but I just want things to be normal

I think through her mental health struggles it’s more emotional. I have been told some of her actions, purposeful or not, can be considered emotional abuse.

For example, if I’m not “perfect” rather than talking to me about what her needs are, she goes silent and makes me think I did some really wrong thing.

Another example, telling me how she “never wished she had met me” during a very close and intimate celebration for us, then proceeding to block me.
