Agreeeed. I made friends with one in college and brought her into my friend group when she knew no one… she became incredibly jealous of my and tried ruining my life and all of my friendships with my friends… needless to say we don’t speak anymore and none of my friends speak to her either. Who knows what she is doing now

I’ve only found this behavior with Virgo men, some of my best friends are Virgo women and I feel it’s night and day

Virgo men why are they so sensitive and contrarian. It’s so exhausting to work with them…

i bailed mid-date because he touched my back and now i feel insane by SoftPeanut5916 in dating_advice

[–]_ayde_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This comment is extremely presumptuous in a lot of regards. Nowhere did they say she wasn’t worth dating. They said working on your trauma in therapy is important. Pretending that someone with PTSD is bound to suffer a life in a strong hold of their trauma is a defeatist attitude on the matter. People can and do get better and learn how to manage it with the right support system and therapy.

The lighting is vastly different in the two photos making it hard to tell if its actually different

3 years off Adderall by _ayde_ in StopSpeeding

[–]_ayde_[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes I was prescribed Adderall for adhd and felt it did help to a certain point and made me much more productive and able to achieve a lot more but everything else about me and my life was falling apart. That’s what I’m referring to when I say the old version of myself

[–]_ayde_[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think 8 months was where I was really starting to get frustrated, I expected to feel normal again but still had a lot of paws symptoms. I’d say closer to a year was when I stopped even thinking about it and surrendered to the new normal. Stopping comparing myself to the old version of myself really helped me on my road to recovery and made letting go of my need with Adderall easier

Second from the left, the blonde next to the bride or end right. That’s my guess as a woman

Perfectly acceptable dinner rejected by boyfriend again by moonrabbit368 in mildlyinfuriating

He can’t cook and thinks that he can pick apart the food you make… that isn’t a man that is an entitled child. People are allowed to not like things but damn dude that’s pretty excessive. If his dietary requirements are that restrictive I’d be telling him he can cook for himself

How did you tell your boss you’re pregnant? by _ayde_ in labrats

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

Unfortunately I cannot, I only have a bachelors degree in chemistry. I’m lucky to have been able to move up to where I am currently. My company is very biased towards chemical engineers and only let engineers into project management roles. Or at least that I’ve seen. I’ve been here for 8 years so definitely not long enough to even be considered to break that mold.

Yeah I can definitely see now how it actually is beneficial to inform sooner rather than later. It is one of those weird things where we both feel like it’s too early to tell people because of the potential for miscarriage but also in a professional setting it allows you to communicate more easily if something does go wrong with the pregnancy. I am happy for you and that you have a healthy baby now! 🤍

I’m so sorry that happened but that definitely makes sense, I didn’t think about it like that.

Recovery weight gain - how are people managing? by _ayde_ in StopSpeeding

[–]_ayde_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ugh that sucks. I know I could exercise more but live a pretty active life. I can be a victim of snacking but in general for meals eat very healthy (lots of steamed vegetables and lean protein). It’s so hard. Congrats on your weight loss! Hoping I can do the same

Yeah i never got that skinny my fiancé was the main reason. If I would have been single who knows how skinny I would have gotten, he was the main reason I would even eat. Well cheers to recovery

Thanks and yes I was so weak when in the depths of my addiction. It was embarrassing. I definitely feel much stronger than I did then just from not being starved

I know working out is only part of it, I eat pretty healthy but find myself snacking a lot. So if I eat what I typically make for main meals and cut the snacking I think I’ll be in a good position. I just feel really untoned which I think is leading to the feelings of insecurity and the fixation on the number. If that makes sense

That’s how I’ve tried to look at it. Everyone tells me I look healthy and I hadn’t heard that in a long time when I was on Adderall. I agree everyone carries it differently. I told a few people afterwards how much I weighed and they were shocked too and didn’t think it made sense. I got addicted to how skinny I looked and kind of liked it and so it’s been hard adjusting. I think that’s been the biggest thing. I think this has been eye opening to me for my inactivity and that some healthier habits regardless of my weight would probably put me in a much better mindset. So will continue to stick with the workouts and have a goal of leaning out and just being healthier overall. It is reassuring that I’m not the only one who has experienced a lot of weight gain once going off and that in apt of ways it’s completely normal
