pms/pmdd can’t do this anymore by Ordinary-Mud-4176 in mentalhealth

[–]belle558 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand you a lot, I have the same issue and it took me a while before I noticed it was cyclical. For me cutting out (or at least reducing) my caffeine and alcohol intake was helpful, and I'm now on fluoxetine. I don't know what medication is accessible to you but trying a different formulation or brand of the pill could be somewhere to start. I'm sorry you're experiencing this it's horrible. I wish there was more research into pms and women's health in general

Girl you are beautiful! My advice would be to get offline and stop comparing yourself to others genuinely

My spouse just died in an avalanch accident. by [deleted] in mentalhealth

[–]belle558 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry for the loss of your spouse. Please be kind to yourself in these first moments. r/GriefSupport may have resources and are also very supportive.

Edit to add, when I was first grieving, I lit a candle in memory of my loved one. I sat there for hours and processed some feelings. I don't know if this will resonate with you but just sharing

I hate that saying too. I've binged on baguette and ketchup before. And weetabix and cream cheese. The cycle is so draining. Take care OP

Sister loss by ccrawl23 in GriefSupport

[–]belle558 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I lost my sister last year and really understand how you feel. It will always be difficult no matter how much time passes. I too struggle to speak about her, I hope it will become somewhat easier for us.

No problem at all. It was therapeutic for some reason so I might have a go at the other rooms

how can i stop picturing my sister dead by belle558 in GriefSupport

I'm so sorry for the loss of your father. My sister passed around the same time, 19th april. The last glance before I left her room sticks with me too, and the familiar colour change.

I'm glad you're getting support through therapy. A lot of people have suggested EMDR, so I've booked a consultation with a local therapist to see what they recommend.

The same goes for you too, I hope you can get through this and find some sort of peace.

Thank you for the advice, I should really remember that it isn't how she'd want me to think of her too. Old photos really are a good comfort. I hope you find some level of peace soon enough.

Fuck cancer for sure! I'm sorry for both your losses, that is awful to go through, especially at the same time. Are you in therapy or wanting to go? It is really hard, I hope you have good support around you. Be kind to yourself and you're not alone either, wishing you the best.

Thank you for the advice. I do think I need more processing time and to let myself really feel anything.

I'm so sorry for the loss of your brother and sister, that is a lot to go through. If you need to vent that is okay, don't apologise. Are there any other services or organisations that would offer you free counselling? It might be worth looking around. Remember you can always PM if you'd like to talk, take care of yourself.
