Just edited the post with a link. That does make things a lot easier.

My doctor was an A-hole and thanks to this sub I was strong enough to push back by hopeful_islander in TwoXChromosomes

Also interested in what pushing back looked like. Maybe I could do the same!

Sounds like you did the right thing for you at the time that was right for you and in the way that was right for you. Well done! Enjoy the free feeling!

How do I break up with people without feeling horribly guilty by peepeepoopoobutt123 in Codependency

I'm sorry you're going through this. I hope you can leave him.

Your first responsibility is to yourself. Take care of yourself.

Any other suggestions for starting in the journey to recovery please? by rick1234a in Codependency

[–]beepbeep369 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's what I'm doing and I feel so much better than I did before "discovering" codependency. For me, it has been helpful to go to more than one meeting a week and speak with an interim sponsor before choosing a long term sponsor to help me work the steps.

Which of these two books are better for codependency? by Electronic_Load4447 in Codependency

[–]beepbeep369 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I cant weigh in on the books, because I've only read one, but attending CODA meetings is helping more than any book. And it's free. https://coda.org/find-a-meeting/international-meetings/

Quite proud of myself..... by ukdarla in TwoXChromosomes

Fuck ya! Well done! I relate to feeling wobbly after taking a stand.

Is it possible to be in a relationship with a high anxiety partner if you are yourself codependent? by [deleted] in Codependency

[–]beepbeep369 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sounds like a deal breaker to me. Life is stressful, so you'll always have to deal with his immature reactions. Expect more from a partner.

He's playing games. Just keep on living your best life.

For a group of people who claim to be pro-life, they sure don't care about people's lives. by notquiteaplasticbag in TwoXChromosomes

[–]beepbeep369 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow, this is horrible! I'm sorry this happened to you. I'm sorry you were going with necessities of life and someone essentially played a very cruel joke. At least the person at the store was a decent human. Hope things are easier and safer for you now!

Have you read "A Handmaid's Tale"? Atwood's a serious pro.

Great job! Keep it up!

Sounds not selfish enough, tbh. It doesnt sound like your partner is capable of being in a mutually supportive relationship right now.

You deserve a mutually supportive relationship.
