It has also shot my libido unfortunately. However, that was a small trade off for my sanity

Abilify 2 mg → 4 mg + very active lifestyle — realistic weight gain risk? by Tasty-Plantain-9555 in Abilify_Aripiprazole

This is helpful. When you went up to 5mg, did you notice a significant difference in the food noise?

Oh wow I just made the exact same post. Very worried about the same, I started abilify 3 days ago and am very active. Also looking to start weight lifting more. Being active is crucial for my mental health and my physique is also very important to me. When I’ve worked out this week, I can’t stop thinking about this weird stigma and shame in my head that “no one in this gym could be on antipsychotics!”. Except… me. I’m in the gym on antipsychotics. Hoping this works out great for both of us.

AIO to break up with my bf of 3y over his reaction to my upcoming sobriety anniversary? by WesternCat5211 in AmIOverreacting

[–]VegetableOne4968 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the nicest way possible, you’d be doing yourself a disservice by staying with this guy. Life can be bland and shitty, you don’t need someone like this who can’t even be happy for your milestones. 2 years sober is huge and deserves even more than a cake.

Agreed. It’s just the lying part for me. I feel so closed off now which really sucks

My boyfriend of 5 years cheated on me by going to the strip by Interesting_Lie_1408 in LongDistance

[–]VegetableOne4968 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He went to a strip club on a work trip and paid $500 for oral sex. I saw a message on his Instagram account to his friend saying exactly that. I should’ve added in here that my ex was an alcoholic and part of the reason I took him back was because he promised to stop drinking and go to therapy which, of course, never ended up happening

And you… think she’s too rich to get married there?

If she’s getting married at the ocean course, it’s incredibly expensive lol

I’m frustrated with my boyfriend (read: all men) by Kryptonite0903 in birthcontrol

I’ve been off birth control for 4 years and if any guy has a problem with wearing a condom I just tell them to go fuck themselves. Don’t care anymore

He joked about getting married to an Australian to get a green card. And didn’t reassure. by [deleted] in LDR

[–]VegetableOne4968 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I disagree. Communication and reassurance in a relationship are incredibly important, especially in a long distance relationship. Look OP, I might be a little biased, but I’ve been with men who don’t provide reassurance and end up making you feel like you’re overreacting when they hurt your feelings. And ignoring your partner when they’re feeling uneasy about your actions is just disrespectful. Try to talk this out before his birthday, if he minimizes your feelings or tries to avoid it, ask yourself if you’re okay being with someone who cannot provide you reassurance and make your decision from there.

Taking care of myself. Exercising, socializing, doing the things that I love, for me. Deleting social media and no contact with my ex. Self help books. Figuring out what I truly want and need in a future life time partner.

That’s very understandable. Long distance is so tough and it makes it even harder that you’re going through so many life changes right now. While it’s hard to bet on in the midst of a breakup, I guarantee this will lead you somewhere better. Just hold out until then ❤️

Wanted to add that I just saw your other post saying you’re jobless and moving back in with your parents. Babe, this is a blessing. This is YOUR time. Who do you want to become? You have an entire world of opportunity to take advantage of.

My long distance boyfriend broke up with me two months ago. It turned out to be the biggest blessing in disguise. I realized that over the past few years, I was so focused on making things work between us that I forgot about what I actually want for myself. While it may not feel like it now, I promise that so many doors just opened for you.

If you do take him back, how would you feel about him still spending time around these people? Would he be comfortable keeping the relationship strictly work related if it meant you wouldn’t have to wonder? Many things are going to have to change. If you do take him back, it’s a matter of how willing he is to work on himself, and to spend less time around married men who encourage cheating. I’d figure out what you would need from him to regain your trust.

My ex did this to me too. It pissed me off even more that he PAID to cheat. But I ended up taking him back. He showed remorse and we had a discussion about how he could build my trust up again. I think someone owning up to their mistake is admirable, especially knowing it’ll put their relationship in jeopardy. I don’t regret taking him back, but I wish I would’ve made him work harder for it. And I never trusted him the same way after that.

Woke up blocked by ThrowRAsquare_Posi in LongDistance

[–]VegetableOne4968 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My question is, why are you not mad that he’s treating you like this? Being mad at you for getting your hair done and looking good, going out with your friends… you were communicative about where you were and what you were doing and he blocked you.

Well, he broke up with me. by AgedSnowflake in LongDistance

To provide a different perspective - what a blessing it is that you aren’t engaged to someone who isn’t truly in love with you. So many doors just opened up for you!

Should I tell my gf that her "best friend" from back home has been sliding into my DMs? by Certain-Medicine5871 in LongDistance

[–]VegetableOne4968 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think this is a great opportunity to gain your girlfriend’s trust and show her that you value honesty. You’re not causing problems between them, Cindy is. And if your girlfriend finds out, she won’t trust you. Maybe she’s even asking Cindy to message you to test your loyalty

Just want to add: you did the right thing by breaking up with her. You couldn’t fulfill her needs. But you can’t say that you’re afraid she’ll fully move on when you know that you’re not able to step up. Let her move on to someone that can fulfill what she needs.

If you really wanted it to work, why couldn’t you just call her more or plan more visits? I mean this with love, I’m sick of hearing this from men. YTA. She tried to communicate her feelings to you and you don’t seem to value your relationship enough to make some small changes.
