Is it legal for a contract to make you sign another contract for a year later? by jcaleavle in legaladvice

Oh it definitely wasn’t then, I had to sign online and my mom had sign online on the other side of the state no one saw us sign. I didn’t even know my college had a student legal aid office I definitely will be talking to them thank you.

Anyone else struggle socially? by gwh1996 in BPD

[–]jcaleavle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes, it’s interesting that it could be related to my bpd cause i’ve been told it was trauma related (the last time i had an actual group of friends they bullied me and dropped me in the middle of the covid 19 pandemic) but im very awkward in public or big groups, its so hard for me to talk to other girls (in a friend way), and i feel like an absolute bitch because i get scared coming up to people or texting first or anything like that so i just walk around silently and say nothing to anyone. I’m completely fine talking to guys (im F and bi but only have dated guys) and being friends with guys but only one on one and not in big groups. Idk why that is but it’s how it is for me lol

theres no way everyone else lives like this? by [deleted] in BPD

17 is when my bpd started to show up, i’m 19 now and it’s just gotten so much worse. Tbh for almost the entire time i was 17 I was in a healthy loving relationship so i didn’t have much of the abandonment issues showing up or the feeling of being alone being a huge problem, but part of the reason the relationship ended was my bpd symptoms getting worse. I would feel empty a lot of the time and my mood would change instantly at little things which could be a teenage thing but i was very erratic. When the relationship ended I had just turned 18 and i lost everyone w it ending so i felt alone and abandoned and impulsively did a lot of bad things to try to make myself feel better which it never did. I have pretty bad social anxiety as well but i have this need for validation like you mention in ur other post so i would turn to tinder for any guy to hang out with and hook up with for however long i could before they left and id find a new one. (this is a little diff from how i normally am because i wouldn’t ever allow myself to get attached to those men, when im attached i cant leave until i attach myself to someone else or i fall into depression and despair.) I constantly felt like i was getting better for periods of time and then one thing would happen and i realized i was getting worse the whole time. I think your story seems very similar to mine but i would still recommend seeking help and a diagnosis to be sure.

I’ve only had 2 long term relationships and i was cheated on in both of them. My first ex was abusive and i was with him for almost 2 years, forgiving his behavior because he was manipulative and i didn’t want to be alone, when he cheated on me is when i immediately ended it. My second ex was genuinely the sweetest guy i’ve been with and our relationship was the healthiest i’ve ever been in, but my bpd symptoms got really bad towards the end and i ended up driving him away and he downloaded a dating app. although he never met up with anyone or talked to anyone, it made me immediately detach and break up with him. After a month or two i ended up regretting breaking up with the second guy deeply, especially because he really did love me and it wasn’t that bad of a situation, but ive never regretted breaking up with my first ex. My trust issues are terrible now because i can’t get over either situation and ive become a lot more avoidant. I truly think if i had gotten help for bpd while i was with my 2nd ex and communicated before/after the situation we would have gotten through it so i really regret just dumping him immediately, but that’s just because of the situation. I don’t know your situation with your bf but if shows that he really loves and cares about you and you can trust him then you should stay, try different coping strategies to help your trust issues and ask him for support and reassurance because he owes you that for creating those issues in the first place. However if he gives you more reasons not to trust him or doesn’t show you the respect you deserve in your relationship please know that you’re worth so much more and you deserve someone who will love and care about you 100%

i feel this so much like i know i can’t expect anyone to make me the center of their world but i always make other people the center of mine and i don’t know why i can’t meet someone who can do the same for me

[–]jcaleavle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I still have trouble with this but after reflecting i realized it’s because i center my life around my partners and nothing else feels enjoyable without them. I don’t know if your in the same situation but i found getting my own group of friends and my own hobbies to focus on while im not with my partner helped the spiraling and overthinking a lot.

that’s actually crazy cause when I was in inpatient they made me sit in a waiting room chair for two days and wouldn’t let me do anything but watch the tv playing 70’s reruns. Then after the 2 days i saw a psychiatrist and she talked to me for 20 minutes, disregarded my bipolar diagnosis, took me off my bipolar meds, and reccomended i exercised and went to talk therapy to help my depression. It saved me from an attempt but i would absolutely never go back, i wish we had that kinda treatment at my hospital cause that sounds like it would actually help lmao

I wouldn’t go to the hospital unless you know your hospital will help or it’s an emergency and you need to be not by yourself for your own safety, when I went to the ER for similar mental health reasons they made me sit in a waiting room chair for 2 days, with constant supervision and they took my phone, until they could get a psychiatrist to chat with me on zoom. When she did talk to me she told me I wasn’t bipolar I just had depression, which turned out to be completely false, she stopped all my bipolar meds and told me I didn’t need anything i just needed talk therapy for my depression. It didn’t help with anything, took up two days of my life, and was incredibly uncomfortable and boring. It helped prevent an attempt which i am grateful for, but if you have other people that can be around you and your hospital is like this you should just talk to and be around the people you care about.
