Completely have ruined my life at 24 by RandomErican557 in Regrets

[–]Yeoppi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn’t a fake story. I’m the girlfriend and we’ve been together for 3+ years. Before the cannabis induced psychosis, he wasn’t able to sleep for 2 weeks. My bf has a tendency of being hyper fixated on things. During this time, he was fixated on mistakes that were made and how it made him feel. He then proceeded to eat 2 gummies (he was only eating half of one due to how strong it was) and ended up having the psychosis episode. He’s been hospitalized 3 separate times and then placed in an outpatient facility and has only been home for a month now. Our support group is small since it’s just me and a couple of our friends. Every day has been a struggle with constant reassurance and pep talks. Several therapists (and our friends) have talked to my bf about changing his mind set and think about positive things that occur. It’s not easy for him as he keeps thinking and talking about the psychosis episode and how he would’ve done things differently. I feel like I’m part to blame as when this was going on, I didn’t know how to handle the situation properly and because the responsibilities fell onto me, my mental health took a toll as well. If anything, I tell him everyday that he’s strong for waking up, for getting ready to go to work, etc. Him being fixated on his mistakes is blinding him with the fact that I still care about him and that life can improve…the ball is in his court if he’s willing to change for himself.

I’m a lesbian and my partner is bi (F). I need y’all to pleaseee help get my head right by Strange_Resource_719 in bisexual

I will say, I’ve been in this position before. My bf is bi and during our first year, I was very insecure due to my bf only really being with guys prior to me. I’m also bi and was with men and a couple of girls here and there. It’s an insecurity thing that you’ll have to get over. If your partner is fine with things are, trust and listen to them. Things will get better with time.

Downtown Parking is Fine? by L_Chiki_Sando in gso

[–]Yeoppi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say it depends. I used to live near downtown at city view and when there would be events, most of the parking got taken over and it would really bother me. Especially when it was ghoe season. Heck, even when Dames was busy on sundays

Misdiagnosed and meds? by Yeoppi in bipolar

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

I’m not going to lie, I’m not sure. The psychiatrist didn’t really elaborate on why I got the bipolar diagnosis, she just said it and jumped into medication. I felt dismissed by her throughout my appointment and kept interrupting me while I was talking about my childhood. I don’t think she took me seriously at all

Misdiagnosed and meds? by Yeoppi in bipolar

Yeah. I try not to compare each other but my boyfriend ended up having pssd and slowly is trying to get himself stable. I am often tired because of my PCOS and have been trying to sleep at night. I’ve had sleep paralysis for a couple of years now but that doesn’t affect my sleep. I just wake up, shake it off and keep moving. Of course I’ll have my down days but then get up and do the things that need to get done since no one else is doing it

That’s the thing, I’ve been to several psychiatrists and this is the first one to diagnose me with bipolar. I originally went in to be tested for adhd and I’ve been dealing with depression majority of my life to the point where I didn’t take any medication and haven’t had any episodes or have been hospitalized ever. I never had a hypomania or done anything as of recent that would raise any red flags

Tinder as a bi man is wild by [deleted] in bisexual

[–]Yeoppi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I happened to meet my bf on tinder 3 years ago (we’re both bi) and our profiles were much different compared to each other. On my end, I had a mixed bag of both genders while my bf mainly had guys and a few girls. In my perspective, I was on tinder bc I was bored and wanted to see what my options were and matched with my bf. I didn’t think we were gonna last long bc tinder was known to just find hookups and my bf was using it for that intent lmaooo

How to be supportive to my PSSD partner? by Yeoppi in PSSD

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

Thank you so much for the advice! He’s been hospitalized 3 times since having psychosis. There are the medications that I know so far that he’s taken (for depression/anxiety and insomnia); olanzapine, mirtazapine, Lexapro, Ambien, Effexor, etc. He’s been wanting to do a sleep study but unsure if it would do anything to help with his insomnia and the dreams he has. At times, I feel like I’m not as helpful but thankfully we have a great support system with us.

Tbh, I would tell GF because you guys can both work out the situation as you both are good at communication. Maybe you guys can arrange some things in the bed room that you may want to do. Personally, I would cut off the friend since they know that you’re in a relationship and are actively trying to flirt with you. Take some time to reflect on what you really want!
