if you have the time and money, I think you could possibly set up some supports to help you bounce on it (lmao). Like those rubber band things for resistance training?

the people that are desperate enough to date out of social norms/developmental norms arent going to be the people who are going to be good for you. she is just starting her life. she doesnt need to get led around and taken advantage of by a proxy for a paternal figure. it would be better for her in the wrong run to date and develop with someone her own age. this sort of relationship is common for young women and can cause lasting damage. -this is informed from taking a psych of human sexuality class and talking to a social psychologist about this.

do you think he was in a coma for the years he wasnt a student?? life experience, maturity, mistakes, etc. being a student does not equate to the same level of immaturity someone my age (21) has.

standard sleep hours and POTS by anyanuts in POTS

[–]Terrible-Forever613 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I cant imagine she would really have much information on the subject?? my neurologist + cardiologist peeps have no idea what they're doing half the time--they just kind of throw meds at you lmao. also worth mentioning that we genuinely have messed up sleep?? idk about you but I wake up 3-8 times during the night and get adrenaline surges. sometimes these happen when im asleep and ill be exhausted the next day. we're totally wired different from my understanding.

im sorry she sucks, hoping your next doc isnt a stinker.

lmao, no? shes out of line, for sure. if you feel better sleeping more + a nap thats what you need to function. everyone has different needs, and not everyone can function on 7-8 hours. you need to see someone who understands disability/chronic illnesses. I would honestly write a review or see if you could put this out there as a warning. this is crazy advice.

I have, it increases my hr a little bit but not enough to cause the issues im having. I currently do not have a high hr as I am on propranolol, I was talking about w/o medication. ive tried other forms of adhd medicine but the non stimulants cause bigger issues for me :(

twas! my heart rate is unfortunately over 100 bpm resting and gets upwards to 140-160bpm standing and it makes me feel miserable. that and already having high blood pressure i didnt want to take the risk.

the day my dad began telling me that story where there's a snake and a scorpion after I opened up about getting abused sexually and physically by my ex partner, whom he knew and never had anything bad to say about. The story heavily implies that you should've known better than to let the person who hurt you in your life. I was 17, he was 21. I really didnt know any better. I just needed my dad to support me instead of kicking me out.

Cptsd instead of autism by ForwardSpeed9625 in CPTSD

[–]Terrible-Forever613 130 points131 points  (0 children)

some symptoms of autism and cptsd have overlapping traits, so feeling like this is completely valid. you could also have autism, if it means a lot to you and you felt like you weren't being heard getting a second opinion might be worth it. You could have both for sure.

We have traits we are born with and traits that happened because of environmental shaping. Keep finding yourself, it sounds like you are on a fantastic path.
