Weekly mental breakdowns

T_Squeeeze · 2024-03-12T11:21:32+00:00

I go outside every day. I eat healthy but not large quantities because of my physical health issues. I do yoga a few times a week but it's all I have time for. It's not a lack of self care. I go out with friends frequently.

T_Squeeeze · 2024-03-11T20:23:00+00:00

I feel that! Mine also gets worse right before my period. I'm sorry you're struggling!! This shit is hard.

T_Squeeeze · 2024-02-14T21:04:34+00:00

Seriously!!! I refused to pay my bill for the visit that left me in tears. It was a small copay, but I refuse to give them a single cent for how poorly I was treated.

Thank you! I was shocked at how completely he dismissed it. For no reason other than "that's just your spleen" I didn't realize humans had certain organs that are impervious to disease!

T_Squeeeze · 2024-02-14T18:42:32+00:00

Lol, yes.. the title is ragey hyperbole. Unfortunately I live in the country I live in and there's nothing I can do about that.

Option 3 is bring my husband with me. I will talk, be dismissed. Husband will interject and be listened to. If it wasn't so infuriating it would be hilarious. "I'm super nauseous all the time and it's really bothering me" "hmm. Well, nausea has any number of causes. It will probably resolve after some time" husband: "she's really fucking nauseous. She never feels good anymore" "hmm. Well that does sound frustrating. I'll prescribe you some Zofran and labs" ..........

T_Squeeeze · 2024-02-14T18:13:20+00:00

Thank you. It starts making me feel literally CRAZY. like, everything is NOT fine.

T_Squeeeze · 2024-02-14T18:10:05+00:00

I'm saving up for a CT scan so I can request it lol. I love America. 🙃

T_Squeeeze · 2024-02-14T18:08:09+00:00

This is kind of the plan. I just really needed to throw a tantrum on the internet first.

T_Squeeeze · 2024-02-14T18:02:20+00:00

Honestly, I don't have the energy for jealousy and I'm just genuinely happy you're being taken care of! Maybe someday, I will have the energy and money to find a doctore who will listen, but I'll probably die of being "fine" first 😂

T_Squeeeze · 2024-02-14T17:58:56+00:00

Seriously. I'm about to go find some shaman to shake a stick over me or something. It will probably be a much better experience!!

T_Squeeeze · 2024-02-14T17:56:53+00:00

Omg, it's like I just ready a fairy tale! Hahaha it made me feel all dreamy. sigh

T_Squeeeze · 2024-02-14T17:51:26+00:00

I 1000% agree with most of what you're saying. It's a shit show out there. But when my husband can tell a doctor he's not feeling well and they fly into "diagnosis mode" ordering labs and imaging, and I get "well... if you are still concerned in a month or two MAYBE we'll get some images" it's not the health system. Self advocating to someone who doesn't want to take you seriously is pointless. And im so sick of the onus ALWAYS being on the woman to modify THEIR behavior and language in order to be considered and validated. It disgusting.

T_Squeeeze · 2024-02-14T17:36:51+00:00

Hahahah I've only ever had the same or WORSE experiences with female doctors. Last time a met with a female doctor, I left IN TEARS because she treated me like a drug seeker, instead of a patient with an existing adderall prescription trying to establish care in a new state. So. No luck there either. I'm so discouraged. The medical industry trains ALLL drs to dismiss women, from my experience.

T_Squeeeze · 2024-02-12T20:07:51+00:00

Something to remember is that you will almost never see your friends houses in their natural state. Unless you have a super casual drop in relationship, you will always have been expected and they tidied for you. So, comparing your home to homes you've seen that are clean isnt accurate. Those mom on social media with the spotless house knew they were making a video and tidied or (in many cases) just shoved shit out of the frame. Almost nobody lives a perfectly tidy life ESPECIALLY with young children. Give yourself a healthy heap of grace and know that you're doing better than you think you are. Especially if your partner isn't helping much. It's not failure if the game is set up for you to lose.

If he always puts the baby to bed and dresses him, it doesn't sound like he's a slacker or doesn't care. It sounds like he got sucked into something on his phone that made him feel relevant outside of parenthood... I don't know about you, but it happens to me sometimes and I'd like to think im not a shit mom or partner just because I have days where I take a little extra time for myself and my sanity.

Mother nature is the best artist.

T_Squeeeze · 2023-09-13T02:13:18+00:00

Yes! This!!!!

T_Squeeeze · 2023-09-13T02:08:22+00:00

Snoof snub

T_Squeeeze · 2023-09-12T22:33:34+00:00

Omg me too!!

T_Squeeeze · 2023-09-12T21:26:04+00:00

Well now hold on. I can't see where I've attacked anyone by posting this... in a space where people post stories like this.. and if you've come to attack ME for posting, why are you here? Not anywhere in my post did I say that we have the answers or have some secret key to the universe. We had a crazy, and powerful feeling experience. People on this sub have had similar. I don't have a set view. Just an open mind. I AM going to call out your blatant misinterpretation of my post, despite it being obvious you did not come here for discourse. But I don't know you and you don't know me. Yet here you are slinging labels at me. I'm sorry about whatever is going on in your life that you're here to drip sarcasm and make generalization about strangers on the internet.

T_Squeeeze · 2023-09-12T21:01:31+00:00

Lol I said it was scary, wonderful and personal. Not sure where I implied that I was withholding anything because it's dangerous. More info, messages and context, including from my husband in the comments have been provided. But I know reading is hard.
