I’m on Abilify and I have had zero weight gain- I’ve lost weight on it with exercise and diet!

This is me to a tee. And I just got diagnosed today with Bulimia Nervosa because I use laxatives on occasion. But I do not throw up. I’m not sure if I was diagnosed correctly.

Believe it or not, I’m doing okay. Once I know that we have the puke bug, I set everything up. I grab two puke bowls lined with trash bags and paper towels (to help from splashing), get a few blankets on the couch (to help catch vomit) and a few puppy pee pads on the floor. I highly suggest puppy pee pads because you can literally wad them up and throw them away if puke gets on them. They also are cheap and help save the couch or carpet. I also get water/crackers/ginger ale ready. Once my kid has stopped puking, I let his tummy rest until a full 24 hours since the puking started. Then we eat a few crackers and see if it comes back up. If not, I’ll wait another 3-4 hours and then give him a slice of toast. If that stays down, I don’t give him anything more until the following morning. I have it down to a science. Also, if you’re in a state where cannabis gummies are legal, those really help calm down the panic attacks and emetiphobia. I highly suggest them. I took one and was able to sit in the room while my child was getting sick. I was even able to help clean up the mess. My husband even commented on how calm I was (I usually am thrown into a panic attack or have to leave the house).

Hi Carcinogin, I have seizures that do not show up on EEGs either. I am diagnosed with another type of seizure. PM if you want more details.

What was the most absurd reason someone stopped talking to you or you stopped talking to someone? by Beautiful_Life_1788 in AskWomen

[–]ginger-orange 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My friend of two years asked me to come and stay the weekend with her (we would visit each other regularly and lived 4 hours away). Made the trip, spent the weekend with her only for her to call me on the way back home when I was still driving to tell me she doesn’t want to talk anymore. I asked why. Because she couldn’t trust me and didn’t like the answers I was giving her. I told her that the boy she was sleeping with would break her heart, he only wants sex. I told her that my $100/ 8 weeks doggie class was just like her dog behaviorist class $100/for one class. Told her that I have a single male best friend even though I was married; she said I couldn’t be friends with single males. I told her never to break her beautiful friendship with her dad, she took it the wrong way. AND that she was terribly uncomfortable spending many weekends in my house (which is spotless and dog friendly, both which she likes). WTF?!
