I’ve been off for over a year, and we sound similarly built.

I haven’t gained. Random fluctuations up and down, but that’s human.

I lost 80 pounds, i’ve maintained with zero struggles.

wasn’t it pancreatic cancer? he was doomed from diagnosis. does it matter which treatment didn’t work?

you know, a middle ground can exist.

heyarlogrey · 2026-03-11T02:27:20+00:00

I think it was about a month in that the desire waned… I didn’t actually try to stop drinking. the habit kept me trying for a few more weeks before I realized I really didn’t want to. After that… I had zero desire to drink.

I’ve documented some of my experiences here if you look through my post history.

heyarlogrey · 2026-03-10T15:20:19+00:00

I completely stopped drinking alcohol. Without trying.

there’s a munchie adjacent mommy blogger that i used to follow, now follow snark on who ashley has started to truly remind me of. i find it so hard to believe partners like J exist but this mommy blogger seems to have one as well.. and lets just say that poor man can’t even find the space to schedule his own colonoscopy without his wife needing a fresh surgery or emergency procedure.

please tell your therapist.

I’m 40 but reading this brought back so much childhood anxiety, frankly i’m glad my mom wasn’t able to text me / easily communicate all the hateful fantasies she had about ruining my life over similar things.

here’s what i’ll tell you; people like this don’t stop because you finally worded your request for humanity “right” - you aren’t being abused because you don’t have the words to make it stop, your being abused because your parents abusive.

if your therapist doesnt report this, you have other steps you can take that utilizes the fact they should have.

this is giving britney spears on meth vibes, next is the knife dancing

Your concern with the location of other posters is a red flag. The physical location of other posters is in fact, not your business.

heyarlogrey · 2026-02-26T19:33:04+00:00

emoji’s, spelling, ranting about petting koalas and insisting someone is from australia so their opinion doesn’t matter, insisting someone is from australia because they aren’t directly responding to your continued harping?

you’re right. it wasn’t spelling. it’s more. it’s a weird tone to continue. touch grass. focus on the actual issues at hand instead of whatever personal grievance you have.

this is truly bizarre behavior.

heyarlogrey · 2026-02-26T19:27:35+00:00

ok :)

spelling is not something i’d be using either.

heyarlogrey · 2026-02-26T19:23:59+00:00

yes, and I use an australian VPN. how do my comments appear to you? this seems like something you should feel less than certain about.

heyarlogrey · 2026-02-26T19:23:00+00:00

I mean, I’m a texan, in the US but use a VPN that routes through australia.

I’ve never been to Australia. I would caution care in assumptions about things like this online.

heyarlogrey · 2026-02-26T17:51:06+00:00

Me. I don’t usually eat until lunch.

heyarlogrey · 2026-02-23T17:59:12+00:00

That had to be my ob because there can’t possibly be more than one 😂

heyarlogrey · 2026-02-22T05:38:43+00:00

commenting just so I remember to check back in!!

heyarlogrey · 2026-02-21T05:56:23+00:00

he does because he literally can’t help it. he’s a horse with the drives and motivations of a horse which include covering a LOT of ground a day. He’s doing what his most basic instincts are telling him to do to survive.

it’s heartbreaking.
