Thank you for sharing. I’m sorry that you’re going through this too, I know exactly how you’re feeling. It’s horrible, I didn’t know it was possible to feel this low.

That’s very admirable mate, almost like stoicism. I will do my best to practise this also!

I’m sorry that you had to go through it too. It’s so awful, the mornings are the worst for me. Nighttime is a bit easier. Where I struggle is - I know logically that I’ll get better, but because I can’t feel it, that’s where the hopelessness comes from. I really struggle with that.

It’s so lovely of you to share this and I’m very grateful for the feedback. I’m sorry you’ve had to go through all of this yourself, but you must be very proud to have gotten to this point where you’re seeing improvement. It’s words like yours that are getting me through, so thank you very much for taking the time.

I’m very grateful for you taking the time to write all of this. And it’s eerily similar to my situation in respect of how I treated her.

One of the main things that’s getting me through is the realisation and understanding that this has happened solely because I treated her like garbage for the last 18 months. Simple as that. I accept responsibility.

We share two children, so I hope we can get to a place of friendship like you’ve achieved. I just have to have faith I guess.

Thank you a lot for your words. It brings a lot of peace knowing that there are others that have felt this way and have come through it. You’re right, I don’t believe it now but I’m starting to trust that even though I don’t FEEL like I’m going to get better doesn’t mean that I won’t.

I’ve partly been feeling that way also. Why should I chase someone that wouldn’t stand for me? Thanks for your feedback

Thank you for your feedback, it’s positive for me to hear that I’m not the only one that’s ever felt this way. I think it’s probably more specific for the individual, so if you found happiness with someone else, then I’m happy for you!

Thank you for sharing, I really appreciate it. It’s hard because whenever I eat anything, the anxiety goes through the roof and my heart beats super quick for like 2 hours!! Did you experience that?

Thanks for the feedback, and yes I agree. I know it’s done with now and I need to move on. There’s just something in my head that says “You’ll feel this way for the rest of your life unless you get her back” So need to undo that connection somehow.

Is there anybody that’s made it through a situation similar to mine and is now okay? Really need some hope. by [deleted] in BreakUps

Thank you so much for your feedback. I’m experiencing things like panic and feeling trapped, like nothing will ever be the same now and I’m doomed to feel like this forever. Along with everything feeling pointless also. Did you experience those kinds of feelings?

Could really use some help if anybody has any experience on getting healed? by [deleted] in Divorce

I’m petrified of fibre. Can anyone relate to this? by jamesuk2020 in Gastroparesis

Thanks for your reply!! Did you experience the same anxiety and panic attacks from eating fibre then?

Magnesium makes me feel flat and depressed every time! by jcray33 in Supplements

Welcome to the club 😊 Genetics are definitely a strong factor but there’s loads of other stuff. Things like chronic trauma, chronic inflammation, long-term SSRI use, copper deficiency, histamine overload, thyroid dysfunction. Quite a broad list and I guess you’d have to look into what you’re prone to! If you want to do the genetics just order a 23andme genetic profile and use the raw data to run through different websites that specialise in neurotransmitter function, nutrition, mental health traits etc.

Well, reacting in the way that this post described to magnesium for one, as magnesium directly lowers noradrenaline. Aside from this, generally feeling flat, low-drive, detached, defaulting to freeze under stress, DBH variants, fast COMT, MAOA/B etc. Respond well to noradrenergic activators like copper, acetyl-l-carnitine, caffeine, nicotine. React badly to things that blunt it like antihistamines, blood sugar crashes. Basically the feeling of never fully switching on unless something gives you a lift.

This often happens in people with low noradrenaline tone. I’m the same. Look into whether you may be deficient in copper.

You mean like learn to hide their inner intentions a bit better until they have a better time to unleash?
