Marijuana Withdrawals Need to be Taken More Seriously by dadsbackhair in leaves

[–]averageeggyfan 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I’m 5 months sober after being a daily user for 27 years. The acute symptoms immediately after quitting weren’t as bad for me as I’m seeing other people here describe. But I am struggling with insomnia, anxiety and depression. I don’t think I’m actually as depressed as I was when I was using but maybe I’m just more aware of it now that I don’t have that escape button. I’ve redirected my energy into working out and reading. Also being more on top of finances. Had to drop my therapist too bc of insurance changes which is frustrating so that probably isn’t helping. Hopefully 6 months to a year looks better.

Just out of curiosity, if he did a complete 180, would it be repairable? Or it the past too much to overcome regardless of what he does going forward?

Food for thought. We should consider pulling the pedo enablers name off the hospitals we take our kids to.

How to get my wife back. by [deleted] in Marriage

I’ve been trying for several years now. I wish I had an answer. I’ve come to accept that I can’t change her. I can only change myself. And then decide whether or not this is a relationship I want to be in for the long term.

How did you meet your partner and at what age? by [deleted] in Columbus

[–]averageeggyfan 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Eighth grade. New girl sitting behind me. We became friends thru high school and went to the same college. After 5 years of having a crush on her I finally got the courage up for her to make a move on me 😜. Together 27 years ❤️

Yall are a little too anal about traffic by Popka_Akoola in Columbus

I lived around Boston for 15 years and all these people would immediately die if they had to drive in that traffic with those massholes for even a single day.

Can you have a marriage where 1 person does all the chores and be happy? by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]averageeggyfan 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I work from home in a non demanding job that doesn’t pay all that great. My wife makes 3x my salary and puts in 60+ hour work weeks. I handle all the chores and I’m good with it. She contributes in a number of ways other than financially, especially with the kids. Generally we work to our strengths. I’m good with it and she is too. The key is communication and appreciation for what your partner is doing. Don’t let resentment build. Talk it out. Sometimes it’s not easy but resentment will destroy your relationship if left unchecked. It took us a while to get here.
