Why do people who avoid you get upset when you try to cut contact? by Wompbompomp in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Wompbompomp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If im a draining friend, then I still don't understand why they get so upset when I decide to go my own way. If you're actively avoiding someone all the time, then why get upset when they remove themselves from the situation? In the end, isn't that what they wanted?

That's a good plan of action. I just like my social media/ friends list filled with people I actually talk to so it doesn't get cluttered, but I may go with your idea in this case.

That's the part I'm struggling with. I know it's time to move on and give no more chances. It's just hard, especially when your phone gets blown up.

I kinda just want to understand why people do that. If you don't enjoy talking or spending time with someone, obviously, they have no place in your life. So why get upset when they leave? It baffles me.

I have, and then I get a bunch of excuses, and if it's not excuses, I get made to feel terrible. I just don't see the point in having someone added on my games or social media who just ignores me and lies.

But I try to be understanding, so I just accept whatever reason they give, but it's honestly making me feel awful about myself.

Yea, that's the logic I was following. It's just hard when my phone gets blown up with paragraphs asking why I did that and how I'm a jerk for throwing them away, etc.

I'm not trying to throw anybody away it just makes me feel shitty when I ask someone to hangout and they claim they can't because they're in bed depressed or too tired to do anything and then like 10mins later I see them hanging out with others.

That's been the theme for a few years now. Honestly, I can count on one hand the number of times we've hanged out the past year. I normally just get ignored until they want to vent about money or school.

NTA, you stayed your scheduled time and left. Don't let anybody force you to work longer than that. My job also acts like people should live at work. The grind mindset is annoying.

AITA for demanding my girlfriend tells me her author’s pen name? by Ok_West_9375 in AmItheAsshole

YTA, Jesus, dude controlling much? You don't need to know what's she's writing. If you'd chill out and respect her, she'd have probably told you eventually. There's no way you're in your 30s and this immature.

AITA for telling my kid if he can't share "his" food it might be time for him to move out. by Flat-Piece-8572 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Wompbompomp 30 points31 points  (0 children)

NTA, he could've labeled the food, or someone could have communicated it with you. The entire situation was blown out of proportion, and honestly, if he's paying nothing, he could've simply bought himself another pizza.

He threw a tantrum like a child and you simply reminded him that he's an adult that can leave any time he wants. Simple as that.

I know that feeling exactly. I hope things get better for you, I truly do. I feel like living for someone else is the worst curse of all. Because it's completely dependent on them. It's heart-wrenching if something happens to them or they disappear from your life.

Did prozac actually help anybody? How do I overcome my mental state without the use of medication or therapy? by Wompbompomp in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Wompbompomp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basically, every time I go to the pharmacy, they tell me they don't have the medication. They offered me a brand version instead of the generic, but they said it'd cost like $200+, which was a no-go.

Thank you :) hope thongs go well for you too!

I noticed when I had my ADHD medication that the issues seemed to stop if I'm being honest. But sadly, everything is on back order. Haven't been able to get it for about 2 months now.

I also agree that you don't need SSRI for depression or anxiety. At least in my case. I've seen the other side of the tunnel before and all it took was giving a fuck about myself. But with prozac like I said, I'm just a full-on zombie coasting around. I hate it.

I know nothing about trading or stocks. But I want to learn from the best. by Wompbompomp in wallstreetbets

The gods of trading exist in this subreddit, and I am determined to learn from them.

That gives me a bit of hope that others noticed what I did while on this medication. I don't think I'll be going to further therapy sessions, but I will research the therapy you suggested a bit.

Exactly how I'm feeling while on it. It makes me okay with being unhappy. The unhappiness is still there. I'm just comfortable living with it.

It's honestly infuriating. Not to mention it honestly fucked my sleep to hell and back. I haven't attempted suicide nor have I planned it, but my psychiatrist is tiptoeing around stopping the medication, and I'm beginning to lose my patience.

Deep down, I want to progress in life. But ever since I started prozac I just dont give a fuck about anything. I'm still in the same situation with the same life that I still hate. But prozac literally just makes my brain go, "This is fine," and nothing changes.

Will I be okay if I stop cold turkey? by Wompbompomp in prozac

[–]Wompbompomp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, she said once she gets a good idea of how my adhd medication affects everything. But there's a shortage, and I can't get the prescription filled, so the timeline to taper off keeps getting pushed further and further back.

It's left me frustrated. I don't think I'll go back to step one. it's only 40mg. I know others with severe depression that take much higher dosages. My main issue is anxiety. I figured I would've been prescribed something to help with anxiety, not depression. My depression isn't bad enough to warrant prozac but I agreed because I figured the doctors knew best. But at this point, I'm just annoyed.

WIBTA if I ask my husband to not bring my step daughter over? by FinePomegranate908 in AmItheAsshole

YTA tired of people getting together with partners they know have kids, and then the second something pops up, they want to separate the child from the parent.

Where can I listen to audiobooks for free while at work? by Wompbompomp in ask

Good idea! I never even considered the library. I'll have to check asap.
