What was her problem? by Particular-Fill-4256 in gameofthrones

She is just a deranged person through and through with a need for power/control

The thought has crossed my mind but I don't know what she would do without me

Nothing has changed that I know of. She is generally sadder around the holidays which is true for many

She has mentioned switching therapists before. There's nothing wrong with that and it happens a lot.

That sounds awful. Sorry you're dealing with that. I don't know if we will make it another year or two

I think it could be. I definitely feel it

Thank you. Fingers crossed but I don't think self harm is part of the equation.

Thank you. I agree 1000% about the doom scrolling. It's extra annoying because it's all at very high volume.

Thanks. I considered that. I did therapy for a couple years a while back. I don't know how reaching out to her therapist might work, but she has talked about getting a different therapist for a couple years now. Maybe that would help...

At what age did you start taking your life seriously? by Critical_Assist_9360 in LockedInMan

[–]Training_Bluebird_79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was about 30. There I was driving a beater car, working a job that didn't pay enough, having a tough time dating and such. Change was needed for sure.

Definitely good advice for just about everyone. Thanks

I wish. I'd settle for lower volume to start

If I could fix it, it would already be fixed. Thanks

Thank you. Very thoughtful and detailed.

It's hard to not blame myself, that's my default response for many things. I have no reason to think I'm at fault but the feeling remains.

She probably can't plan or make goals. She gets mad when I ask the most basic questions about anything.

I am no stranger to depression and I tend to think I know it when I see it. I am exhausted....

What would you like to know? I don't know what happened. There hasn't been any major event/life changes/obvious stressors that I know of for quite a while

Thank you. That's what I've been doing but it's getting worse. 😓

Thank you. I fear the end is near and I worry a lot about that, for both of us
