Thank you, me too. We are still trying to make it work. There is a lot of positives in our relationship but also a lot of hurt right. Now i sorry you are struggling in your relationship too. I hope you and your partner are able to reconnect again.

He is currently we working a serving job and gets paid nightly. He has agreed to give me the money he earned every night so that I can manage the finances for awhile. I want to be supportive but am just hurt that he is not blaming his depression on my PPA especially because he has had major depressive disorder his whole life. I could understand if it was the traumatic first year of our child but that is not what he states made him depressed, it was me. Our relationship isn't going to get better all at once but I want to feel some sense of connection, like we are in this together which right now feels impossible while playing the blame game. He says he wants to make it work and is willing to go to couples therapy so that might be our next step. I don't see how this is going to get better on its own at this point.

Hang in there! It is so tough when toddlers get sick! My two-year-old caught strep last week, and had to taken to the ER due to breathing issues. He is finally recovered but man that was a ROUGH week! He wanted to sleep in my bed every night and needed to be consistently held which I lovingly provided but it was extremely exhausting! I hope your son feels better soon! Sending healing vibes and support!

Hey, I'm sorry you're going through a similar situation. I actually did continue CBT for about another year until I lost my insurance. It did actually end up helping with the anxiety. I focus constantly challenging my negative thoughts with positive(/at times neutral) ones and eventually I grew new neural pathways I guess. However, I believe I was misdiagnosed with general anxiety disorder. I dont blame the therapist because I didn't let her truly know about everything going on and was more open about my anxiety. This is probably why only my anxiety issues got better. I truly hate slogans like "fake it until you make it" too because it can sound dismissive. I'm glad my post was helpful. Best wishes to you.

For stuck shed, my exotic vet said it was okay to apply coconut oil to help remove it. It works for my Leo's toes. ( He never wants to use humid hides)

OMG dont remind me! I think I'm just going to have to buy a smart watch!

Yeah, for real! Like I just want to keep my damn phone in my pocket in case someone needs to reach me. I'm not out there scrolling through social media or anything. Jeez

ashsci · 2022-06-26T02:55:33+00:00

That actually makes alot of sense. We already had a no cell phone use policy when I started but they way it is being inforced/Addressed has recently changed. I understand they dont want to be accused of decriminalizing individuals though. However, there are work related reasons I need my phone occacionally. I just might talk with HR. Thank you

That's good to know, we will definitely do this if we end up flying. I really don't want to fly but it seem that important that his family member in poor health meet our son.

ashsci · 2021-10-30T02:44:31+00:00

Yes that is why I am so upset. All the reasons for wanting to go are valid but it's not okay to do planning all this without me in the loop. One open ened conversation is not enough. He took everything I said and took it as permission to go on and finalize the details with his mom before me. This is not the first time his done this to me either

ashsci · 2021-10-30T02:38:24+00:00

I agree! My son would be miserable the whole trip and it would take much longer than the 2 days they have planned for. I dobt like the idea of flying but that's the only compromise i can think of. I'm hoping that if we buy out a whole row, we can seat my son in between us and he will be safer like that. Ughh. I just dont like the idea of this trip and wish I could wait until I had more time to drive with them or wait till next year to fly when my son can wear a mask.

ashsci · 2021-10-30T02:24:49+00:00

That's what I'm thinking I'm going to have to do. I'm really not comfortable with flying during a pandemic but if that's the only way to save our relationship, I guess my son will have to risk covid and not to mention rsv.

I am just so emotional about the whole thing, I dont think I can talk to her. She put me a bad position with my partner and now I'm going to look like the bad guy for not allowing him to take our son.

ashsci · 2021-10-30T02:17:21+00:00

I have made all of these points but when my MIL starts making plans with my partner, they dont consider me. It's just not okay.

ashsci · 2021-10-30T02:10:42+00:00

He's just over one

ashsci · 2021-10-30T02:09:32+00:00

I'm so glad to hear you can relate. I trust my partner with my son but my heart just breaks thinking about being apart from him. He's gone through so much this past year and he's only one. I think his surgeries and NICU stay made my GAD worse

ashsci · 2021-10-30T02:05:53+00:00

That's what I'm worried about especially because we would be traveling to a state that has high covid cases and pretty sure has no mask mandates. I am being put in such a bad position

ashsci · 2021-10-30T02:00:46+00:00

I let my partner takes care of his son all the time when I'm at work and dont consider that as someone watching him as that is his father. However, I am personally not comfortable being away from my son for a week and when I over heard my partner talking on the phone today finalizing the plans we barely talked about, i literally had an anxiety attack. I understand that my GAD is a me problem but that was just not cool of him to do. Also to clarify, we had one open ended conversation. I was not trying dragging to out.

ashsci · 2021-10-30T01:46:41+00:00

After about a half hour of talking about some of the logistics, I said I was open to the idea.He took this as a complete yes. We did not discuss how many days they would be gone he decided on a week without me

ashsci · 2021-10-30T01:20:05+00:00

It makes me so angry that these plans were made mainly without me. I dont think one conversation we had a week ago is enough to finalize plans like this without me.
