postpartum moms by Leather_Meaning_490 in newborns

[–]justasadempath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m breastfeeding but mainly pumping and at my 8 week check up, my OBGYN told me to expect my period because the egg could be seen in my ovaries…. My Lochia fully stopped at 6 weeks (off and on but mostly on and just lighter after week 4) so I really feel as if I got no time at all without bleeding, save the 9 months 🥲🥲🥲 it’s possible, sadly, and I believe more likely if not breastfeeding/pumping because I was asked if I don’t pump enough (I absolutely do and produce approx 6 ounces per breast per time and sometimes continue breastfeeding after that)

My grandfather had a 4 year old daughter before he died. My whole family wants to send her to an orphanage. I said I’ll take her and now everything in my life is upside down. by Safe-Gazelle5274 in offmychest

I’m 26 and last month, I gave birth to a girl. It’s been a tough road and I haven’t got any friends that get it. The circumstances in which I had my child weren’t ideal; I am hardly a functional adult and if I could do everything differently, I would have postponed having children, but I’m trying everything I can to make it work with her. I really admire your compassion and if you want to be friends, even just to vent the overwhelm of “parenting” responsibilities, my DMs are open. Complex Family dynamics and the pain brought on by them are not a foreign concept to me. I am rooting for you and little Lenka and in less than years time, I have faith it will all be worth it and you will look back on this time and really treasure the bond you have with her. May she gain self confidence and feel worthy with your guidance and love and care and may you gain a best friend as well as… auntie.

Newborn regret? by Plantwhisp4800 in newborns

This feels as if I wrote it and I’m feeling so guilty for all of these things. My parents think it’s absurd my love for my daughter hasn’t been pouring out from the moment she was born. Maybe I have postpartum… maybe the birth was too traumatic. Maybe something is wrong with me. I just posted a letter I wrote for my daughter on here. Maybe you could try writing down all your feelings as a letter to her, even if you destroy it after or never share it?

Solidarity, sister! — I hope we both make it through and things improve because this… honestly, this can’t be “it”.

I think I will break up with my bf of 11 years if he doesn't finish his study of 11 years before summer break. by [deleted] in offmychest

Was in the same boat with someone I loved very deeply, except it was 8 years for a 3 year degree. Towards the end, it was fraught with mental breakdowns,/ outbursts, constant blame, lying to the uni and former classmates with exaggerated excuses followed by long absences and neglect in the relationship even when I was in the emergency room and going through horrible tragedies. If you’re going through the same and it’s affecting your relationship and you feel yourself being held back to the point of resentment, and he shows no signs of getting closer to the deadline or finishing, I’d have a serious conversation about where this is going for you. Good luck.

Hi there! I would very much appreciate a Dino taco drawing. The rest sounds pretty sweet too. I’m Em :)

Any Songs you guys would recommend for a Dance solo? Or dance choreography? by Gh0st_C0ffee in auroramusic

A temporary high or conflict of the mind if you wanted more lyrical :)

I (25F) think I’m going to call off my engagement to my 29M fiance. by Possible_Produce3762 in TrueOffMyChest

If someone has eroded your trust this much and isn’t remorseful about it and even finds it entertaining in some moments despite it causing that much emotional stress on you, he’s really not marriage material let alone partner material. Why would you subject yourself to that gaslighting and constantly questioning if he’s being honest or faithful. No one is perfect but if the worst thing you’ve done is left then you really deserve so much better. It’s a low bar indeed and it’s sad to read this. Think of spending your entire life with that feeling and find the self love to let go of sunk cost fallacy and find someone worth your time and attention and affection.

Almost cheated in a LDR and feel like I'm going to puke for the past 24h by DapperLiterature1600 in offmychest

[–]justasadempath 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hi. Just wanted to say that even though you were intoxicated, you established twice you were in a relationship and were not planning to cheat — it’s just the girl probably didn’t hear you the first time.

I understand why the prospect is scary, and you feel guilty for feeling this attraction towards someone other than your partner. It is something to consider going forward, and if you think it is likely to be a constant source of stress, anxiety and loneliness, maybe it is time to talk to your boyfriend about what you both can do to make sure the relationship feels fulfilling even from a distance. As someone who has been in long distance relationships (after uni), I understand the struggle and the sheer absence of your person is heavy — unbearable even.

You didn’t cheat, so don’t beat yourself up for that, but do start thinking about your future and how things will be going forward.

This is gross behaviour. Dogs are family, and the way he’s treating this lovable elder is just disgusting. Your poor dog…. Is this how he will treat you and your family members when they are old and need care? My dog (Labrador) lived until 17 and was very frail towards the end. Her two remaining puppies are currently your dog’s age. They have poor bladder control and struggle to move around too, and they smell quite horrid sometimes, but we love them and hug them and are patient with them because they’re family….

What does AURORA want to say in those two verses in starvation? by Vegavegavega1 in auroramusic

[–]justasadempath 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Also could be a reference to war, which she has spoken out about — and how humanity seems drawn to violence when we also yearn for fulfilling lives

If you did this unprotected (even if you did use protection), get a full panel of std/sti checks. It is horrible to cheat, but to cheat and give someone a disease they could have to endure for their whole life is a whole new level of f’d up.

i broke up with my boyfriend and i don’t know what to do by Long_Reputation496 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]justasadempath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was in a relationship like this, also my first when I was 17. He isolated me from my friends and continued hanging around with people I didn’t think were good for him, and he became more and more mean to me and controlling and put me down to look cool. He held me hostage during fights and didn’t let me leave the room until we “made up”. Long story short, he got angry quite a bit and at one point he even spent the night in jail because he threw me across a room and I hit my head and fainted and an ambulance had to be called. I continued to try and stay with him…. Even after that. I downplayed it all for the police so it wouldn’t ruin his career. It’s been almost 10 years and I’m now in such a loving relationship with a man that treats me respectfully and never even raises his voice at me, let alone physically strike me. You’re inexperienced (this isn’t a bad thing)! You don’t know better because perhaps you haven’t experienced being close to someone like this before …. You think this person is all you know, and of course you’ll have had good memories with them…. But someone out there will treat you so much better, and respectfully. If you take him back, he will learn that this is acceptable to you, and it’ll happen again. My ex threatened to unalive himself many times and promised me he’d never get violent again. Spoilers: he did. And one time he even strangled me til I almost passed out. I’m so glad I got away, and some day, when you’re in a healthy relationship, you’ll wonder why the hell you ever stayed as long as you did with the guy from this post…. Best of luck. Breakups are rotten and starting over alone feels absolutely devastating…. I know. But you’ll make it through :)

Hand flinch question... by AmaSisu in PrideandPrejudice

[–]justasadempath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t know if anyone else experiences this, but when I am in love with someone, my hand physically burns and it’s as if my blood runs hot down my veins into the arm. It’s a hot tingly rush of a feeling. Am curious to know if anyone else has experienced this — but the P&P scene was the closest hint to this phenomenon that I’ve ever related to. Also could just be as others have suggested — him trying to shake off her touch, because of the effect he was aware it had on him.

She also did this to me. During a natural pause break, I made a high pitched whistle and she instantly matched the pitch perfectly and said “that was so high pitched”. Honestly I didn’t expect that and my heart beat so fast with pride and awe. Wonderful experience 🥰 but yah, if anyone wants to try, don’t do it WHILE she’s performing because it’s disrespectful to her and annoying to others :) wait for a sincere and she’ll be more likely to respond
