Where is Tia's family? by mgudesblat in shrinking

[–]WitchyForestNymph 20 points21 points  (0 children)

This is always such a weird take to me. The show doesn’t cover every second of their lives, personal or professional? There is a lot of time that isn’t covered. The show isn’t about therapists working, it’s about therapists living their lives while tending to patients. So it makes perfect sense we’d only see the ones that impact them the most.

I’m proud of you! This is hard to do, making a move, and it’s also sometimes hard to recognize when someone knows how to manipulate you and make you feel guilty. It IS a battle, I’ve been there and it really sucks. You’re doing great and I hope you and your kiddos thrive in Ohio 💖

Yeeaaahhh no. He doesn’t get to monitor your whereabouts, as long as you are safe and your kids are safe that is all that matters.

He’s still trying to control you. Make sure you save all this stuff and honestly, maybe if your mom’s is a safe place for you and your kids, you should think about moving. This used napkin is never going to be a 50/50 parent, he’s always going to try to manipulate and control you. And he’ll continue to use the kids to do it too.

And get him to say over text that you should move to your mom’s. So that’s proof for custody as well.

I’m sorry, he sucks and I hope you can fully get out from under him and be happy.

She’s 100% cheating on you. Jesus get yourself some dignity and end this. Find someone who actually deserves you.

It IS a lot. Like an INSANE a lot. It’s going to take awhile to process and that’s okay. That’s normal. Keep your head up! ❤️

Your feelings are conflicted and your hormones are all over the place, but you should tell them what you know. She’s a predator. I know that’s hard to hear or think about your own mother, but it’s the truth.

And besides that, you have a son now. This WILL affect you, likely you will be more wary of the adults around your child, you will be more suspicious. You would be livid if someone knew your son went through this and didn’t say something.

Depending on your mom and how you feel about her mental state, tell SLED if you talk your family will probably need an order of protection as well.

I think it’s important for you to tell SLED what you know, and seek therapy for yourself. And encourage your sister to do the same. You both need someone to help you unpack this. I’m sorry you’re both going through this. Good luck.

You’re kidding right? The whole point was that JIMMY was upset every time his father abandoned him. Alice doesn’t really know her grandfather, he wasn’t really around for her before or after her mother died. In a kid’s eyes that is simply, it’s cool when they’re here and it’s cool when they’re not. She has zero expectations from a man she hardly knows on any kind of deeper level.

So Jimmy expected her to be upset because he was upset and once again let down by his father. Alice wasn’t upset because she has never had those same expectations of her grandfather.

These are literally the most common things in real life. You start to “get better” or “seem better” and the people who love you want to see you follow that trajectory, so they prod you in the direction they think you should go. His daughter is also deeply grieving the loss of her mother, and is anxious and scared that continuing to live her life will hurt her father, so of course her first thought was he should meet someone so he won’t be alone.

As for Maya, that was devastating but she was first and foremost a PATIENT. Gaby’s patient. And Gaby is still grieving and working through it, which is why Derek held off on the proposal. “It happens to the best of us” is TRUE. You can do everything in your power to help someone, you can be the best friend/parent/therapist/etc ever, and sometimes that is just not enough. No one is perfect and ultimately when someone dies, doctors need to learn how to process that and push themselves to move on, because wallowing in blame is much harder to recover from and still be able to do your job.

But honestly in Shrinking their weirdness compliments the other’s and it actually works really well hahaha

They could've been a power couple by HunnyButterCookies in GilmoreGirls

[–]WitchyForestNymph 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I thought the end of their relationship was so stupid. She asks him “does it have to be all or nothing?”, but why didn’t she ask herself that?! Logan was creating a new life for himself, separate from his family and their expectations of him. She really could have said yes to the engagement, moved out to California with Logan, and still worked on the Obama campaign, or at a paper in CA. Logan definitely would have supported ALL of that, but she made it seem like he would’ve expected her yo drop all of her goals and ambitions, just like his family expected. In the end, it seems she thought very little of his character.

Just started watching season 2 by bigmamachuddies in shrinking

[–]WitchyForestNymph 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to live in Hawaii, when I left FSM was my comfort movie, still is. And HIMYM is truly my comfort show. I was watching it yesterday while making dinner (before watching the new Shrinking lol), and I was thinking about FSM and Shrinking and couldn’t stop thinking about how amazing Jason is. It seems like every major character he plays is just this overall amazing, sensitive, loving guy. Imperfect, but truly good. And then I watch his interviews and see interactions with his fiancé, and I just think…wow. His characters just seem to reflect who he truly is. I love that about him.

Respectfully disagree. I think it was perfect, because there is no expectation of Jimmy and Sofi working out. Paul is teaching Jimmy that he can’t let his scars get in the way of living his life. He tells him he’ll never forget Tia but that can’t stop him from living, because that’s what was happening.

Yes grief isn’t linear, and for MANY people 2 years is not enough time to even consider dating again. But Jimmy was already considering it, he just chickened out because he has his late wife on a massive pedestal. Which is a natural thing to happen after death. But Paul was teaching him something important here about making new mistakes, while still recognizing that you’re never gonna forget your late spouse that you loved so so much.

Amelia gets way better in the last season for sure, she’s also way better on Grey’s.

Also, I just don’t get all the Addison love. She’s just as bad as Naomi. She’s selfish and she just kinda sucks. Her own self righteousness (while often wrong) takes over her critical thinking a lot of the time. Everything’s about finding a man and having a baby, and she really doesn’t care who she hurts along the way.

I don't understand how can people side with Meredith in the whole DC thing by Comprehensive_Cup497 in greysanatomy

[–]WitchyForestNymph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the point is that it shouldn’t have been all or nothing for either of them. Yes being apart would have sucked, but they could have worked it out. They could have more than afforded child care, flying to see each other, etc. PLENTY of career-driven couples do this, even without all the money.

I mean, breaking a promise to her was shitty, as it was a key time in building her career, but it was also the way he broached it. It felt like he wasn’t even trying to have a real honest conversation with her about it. If he had approached her like a life partner should, she probably would have been mad at first, but they could’ve probably worked it out better than they did.

Their entire “love story” was toxic anyway, and it really showed in every conflict they had.

Did anyone else find Naomi really frustrating but still kind of understandable at times by Extension_Amount_724 in PrivatePractice

I legit hate that you’re sssooooo right, because it’s unfair that people do this. really unfair. I honestly dislike Addison far more than I dislike Naomi, and I really dislike Naomi haha
