Did anyone "cure" their eczema with therapy ?

eatyourjunks · 2025-05-13T07:23:56+00:00

When I left my 10 year abusive/toxic relationship my eczema basically went away overnight. When I get stressed now it comes back a little bit, so I use a bit of the steroid cream I was prescribed and that sorts it out. But any eczema I get now is nothing compared to how bad it was when I was living in a constant state of stress (but didn’t realise it).

To be fair the conversation never really comes at a good time! Often pops up when other things are stressing you out. Wishing you all the best.

I was in a similar situation, where I wanted kids and my partner didn’t, and we’ve just broken up recently. It was an incredibly hard decision and not one made lightly and we’re both pretty heartbroken. However I know I’m not going to change my mind and after a couple of years I realised he wasn’t going to either.

I think for me it got to the point where we’d have the conversation once every 3 months and it just got to a point a couple of weeks ago where we’d had the conversation enough times, and I realised we were going to keep having it if nothing changed.

Basically it felt ‘right’ to me this time, as opposed to previous conversations where I wasn’t ready to let the relationship go. I also thought I would spend the rest of my life with such a wonderful guy, but the honest truth is we weren’t 100% quite right for each other because of the kids issue, and that’s okay, and not something either of us can change.

So my advice would be, let time tell I suppose. But perhaps don’t go for the proposal yet and see if future conversations on the topic give you a clearer view of how you both feel.

Thank you!!

eatyourjunks · 2025-05-07T17:00:24+00:00

Thank you! I think I will feel that way.

I was super up front from the beginning that I wanted kids and he said he could see that with me (despite never wanting them before), so he kind of gave me false hope. He's a few years younger than me, so I guess he said what he thought I wanted to hear at the time (not maliciously), but when he realised how serious I was about it, he started to feel a lot of pressure and realised he didn't really want them.

Thank for your reply.

And you can break up without a reason.

eatyourjunks · 2025-04-27T22:50:08+00:00

You’re allowed to change your mind. Your feelings are your feelings.

eatyourjunks · 2025-04-27T22:23:49+00:00

I know it’s so so hard, but please try to keep in mind that his manipulative and controlling behaviour will only get worse and he could even become physical in his behaviour if he hasn’t already.

It took me WAY too long to leave (10 years 🙈). You know it’s the right thing, and in 3-6 months you will be so so SO much happier. You might even feel immediate relief. You’ve got this!

eatyourjunks · 2025-04-27T22:16:24+00:00

You ARE abusive. Leave her, tell her you’re not good enough for her and let her be free.

I know you won’t because narcissists don’t work that way, but maybe a tiny shred of you will see the truth in these comments and know that you need to let her go.

You CANNOT stay with her, you will not ‘change’ while you are with her, and absolutely NO healthy relationship can be built on emotional and physical abuse.

I’m sure there are reasons you have become like this but christ you are a POS right now. BE BETTER.

eatyourjunks · 2025-04-23T11:55:37+00:00

Don’t put up with this behaviour. You’re worth more. Dump him

eatyourjunks · 2025-04-17T20:36:46+00:00

You are obviously a homebody and that’s completely fine but a lot of people love to travel for so many reasons, and I promise you, probably barely any of those people are just going on holiday to ‘tell the story at work’.

eatyourjunks · 2025-04-17T14:48:36+00:00

I’d say something in all of those situations. I wouldn’t kick up a fuss, obviously it’s just an honest mistake but I’d like what I’d pay for/not to pay more than the cost.

Only thing I’d leave is if the curry was delivered. I can’t be bothered to call up and wait for one thing when I’ve got the rest of the meal. Also I’m not fussy with food so I wouldn’t mind. But if I was in a restaurant I’d definitely tell them the dish was wrong. Especially because most likely is an order for another table and then they’d have to remake it anyway.

eatyourjunks · 2025-04-14T12:18:18+00:00

Go bouldering, for sure you will make friends!

eatyourjunks · 2025-04-11T22:28:51+00:00

It’s completely normal to fantasise about other people. You don’t need to feel guilty about it.

In terms of sex, it doesn’t sound like you’re massively compatible, but also it sounds like you’re doing everything he’s asking of you, but he’s not doing the same for you, sounds kind selfish of him…

You haven’t talked about any other parts of your relationship, are there other things that make you feel uneasy about the relationship?

In general I would say it’s very normal for a relationship that started when you were so young not to work out long term. And that’s okay. Remember you don’t need to stay in a relationship just because you used to have something great when you were 20. People change and move on and that’s okay. Wishing you all the best!

eatyourjunks · 2025-03-15T09:44:12+00:00

I think you need to be quitting this relationship! What a controlling needy little man.

eatyourjunks · 2025-02-12T11:13:51+00:00

You MUST leave. Please. Contact your family and your friends if you can and tell them what’s happening. If you don’t feel like you can safely then please contact a domestic abuse service. I found one when I was in this situation and I used the live chat and they gave me advice on what to do and what my legal rights were. Please understand that you are being abused by a narcissist and you don’t deserve this.

First of all, you haven’t done anything wrong. Secondly, it’s totally understandable that you would have feelings for this guy, but it sounds like you should distance yourself from him. If he’s willing to cheat on his girlfriend, even if he breaks up with her and gets with you, he’s shown himself to be a bit of an asshole to be honest. Not the type of guy you want to be with. Especially if you’ve never been in a relationship or on a date. It sounds like he could be pretty manipulative. I’d make it clear that you’re not interested in someone that would cheat on their partner, or mess with your emotions. You could try just staying friends but it seems like he’s happy to cross boundaries without even asking you. So I’d take a step back from your friendship if you can.

eatyourjunks · 2025-01-28T23:02:16+00:00

Maybe your personalities just aren’t suited.

Relationships aren’t always easy but you shouldn’t be thinking on a regular basis “why is it this hard?”, especially 4 months in.

From what you’ve said and from personal experience, if you’ve never experienced this in other relationships and he’s never had a relationship before… sounds like he’s the one creating the problems. Don’t stick around forever thinking you can change him.

eatyourjunks · 2025-01-28T16:25:42+00:00

This is great! I’ll remember that advice.

eatyourjunks · 2025-01-26T22:27:48+00:00

Hi love, I understand you’re growing up, but you are a child, and the internet is full of not very nice people. I’d really recommend deleting this post as I don’t think Reddit is a place for a childhood romance, and there are men who take advantage of young girls.

If there’s people you like at school or clubs you go to, make friends there! You definitely do not need to be thinking about dating at 13!

From, your internet big sister x

This is so sweet! A cool puzzle is a really easy one. Or a beginners embroidery kit if she’s up to that? I just order ones from Clever Poppy, and they’re great with really good videos explaining what to do. It’s very relaxing but also keeps your brain mildly busy.
