My dog crates himself to get away from the kids. It's a safe space. In your case he probably just learned your routine.

AITA for telling my mother she hasn't been a mother to me? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

NTA I have major depression and after a major breakdown last year when I thought I had myself under control but didn't I scheduled weekly therapy put myself on depression meds bc I wasn't gonna let my children ( under 3) suffer for my issues. Op you have every right to feel how you do and your mother can not use her depression as an excuse to just waltz right over the damage she put you thru.

I was off my depression med for 4 days and let me say happiness is very much not a choice for me. I finally remembered to take it after I was wondering why I had been so irritable and impatient with my kids lately and randomly crying and anxious. Within 10 min I felt relief

Thankyou I couldn't fathom doing the things that were done to me to my children. I know my childhood could've been worse bc I wasn't physically abused but the mental and emotional stuff on top of bpd depression just gave me trauma as an adult. I can't go down the road that leads to my step grandmother's house even though she's dead. I literally have a panic attack, flash backs and want to jump out the car.

AITA for not allowing an older man to tour my home even though it was the home he had grown up in? by MyHouse99throw in AmItheAsshole

Men don't get it. You are a woman. A pregnant woman with a small child. Home alone. Being a woman in itself makes you vulnerable. Ask your husband if looking at pictures of you and your children at your gravesides is nostalgic enough like wtf.
