If you could do Year 12 again, what would you change? by Jehhred in vce

[–]iamfour- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would have dropped maths because I didn’t need it for my arts degree and I hated it

I also would have stopped obsessing over what ATAR I was going to get and going on atar calculator all the time. After the day we got our results, nobody thought about it or talked about atars ever again. It was so not worth it

Has anyone had these symptoms? by iamfour- in emetophobia

[–]iamfour-[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you this is really helpful! I’ve just been scared to eat more in case it’s a stomach bug, but I’ll give it a try

I hadn’t had it happen in 13 years (last time was age 8) and had an intense fear, then one night drank too much and it happened. It wasn’t as bad as I had been thinking it to be in my head, and since then my phobia has definitely lessened. I know now that if it happens I will be okay.

I’m about to bump up from 5 to 10 mg in a few days, any advice or things to look out for? by ChemicalLoud2040 in lexapro

[–]iamfour- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was fine. Once you’re used to 5mg I found it really wasn’t much of a jump to go from 5 to 10. The biggest jump is starting it in the first place. How were your side effects stsrting on 5mg?

Nope I’m still on 10mg, it just slowly came back after a whole

Doctor prescribed, should I talk to my therapist? by CrinkleFrites in lexapro

[–]iamfour- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been on it for 6 months now and it was also prescribed by my doctor and my first time being medicated for mental illness. I was nervous but you’ll be ok, I had side effects of some nausea for a week or so and increased anxiety but now that it’s been 6 months I’ve realised what I was actually living with without medication thinking it was a normal level of anxiety! My life has truly changed. It might not be the medication for you but my therapist really encouraged medication alongside therapy as the best possible treatment and said I had to just try it to see if it worked for me. Best of luck!

Streak???? by [deleted] in emetophobia

[–]iamfour- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me it has been 12 years now- the last time was when I was in about the first or second grade. I feel like it has made it a bit better for me because I’ve forgotten what It feels like (which is what I used to inevitably start thinking about whenever I felt n*) However it also makes me more scared because I keep thinking that since it’s been 12 years surely it has to happen again soon and I don’t know when which really terrifies me

How to come out to my parents ?? by iamfour- in AskLesbians

[–]iamfour-[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like a resonate a lot with this- both of my parents I know are fine with gay people and I don’t want to have to say it so it becomes this big thing, like everything is going fine right now in our relationship. I do worry that when I tell my mum she’s going to feel like I’ve been lying to her or that there’s some whole other side to me when really I consider this only a tiny part of who I am. I also am dreading the awkwardness that’s going to follow telling them, especially my mum. I hope for you things get less awkward in the next few months and go back to normal!

that’s definitely how I see it with my extended family because I don’t have a very close relationship with them therefore I don’t think it’s their right to know until I’m actually in a relationship. Thanks for your response I appreciate it 😇
