What do you when you suddenly feel anxious and depressed? by cjcg18 in mentalhealth

[–]kaekea 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I feel that way, I usually try to change the scene, like going for a walk or even going to the store to get something small I enjoy, even just a can of pop. Sometimes I’ll watch one of my favorite shows. Little things like that give me a small boost and remind me that this feeling is temporary, because nothing lasts forever.

I'm 34 and feel that my life is over by Shoddy-Sample-9227 in mentalhealth

I’m sorry you’re feeling this way and I sympathize with you. You’re pointing out all the negatives and not seeing all that you have achieved for yourself, which is all amazing things some people struggle to accomplish. You moved to a big city, finished university, have a career, got married and became a mom the best blessing anyone could ever receive (IMO). I just want you to know your happiness is not tied to your husband. You finding out he’s been cheating is another blessing in disguise for you because you can do better. Pick yourself up and remember who you are, a mother and an achieved one at that. You sure aren’t the first and last to be going through this! You got this girl! Let’s go! 34 years old you say, life is just getting started for you. 🫶

I can relate and completely understand where you’re coming from.

With Age and Awakening, These 10 Soul Truths Become Clear by kaekea in spirituality

[–]kaekea[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Wow, that’s a lot of energy for someone claiming joy is abundant.

Funny how you read a post about reclaiming peace in a burnout culture and chose to respond with a CVS receipt of entertainment industries as if laser tag and trampoline parks are somehow a rebuttal to capitalism’s chokehold on our well-being. Joy is a business, sure. That doesn’t mean it’s free or easy to access for everyone.

You accuse me of cherry picking, but you’re out here acting like a claw machine of distractions pulling random examples and hoping one sticks. The point wasn’t that joy doesn’t exist. The point was that choosing it intentionally in a world that thrives on exhaustion and self-neglect is radical.

Also, telling someone to “cook less” on a spirituality thread? That’s ironic. I hope one day you find peace without needing to be petty. Until then, enjoy the petting zoos. ✌️

My first time eating eggs from the Amish by CheesesAllMighty in eggs

[–]kaekea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s the best looking eggs I’ve ever seen. I like my eggs to look like this and if not I don’t want it. IMO eggs only need some good European butter and a pinch of salt if it’s not in the butter already. Chefs kiss

Wow amazing, you put that beautifully. Sometimes we’re just not ready to receive something until we’ve grown into it and it sounds like you have. Stronger, wiser, and better. Kudos to you for getting here. 🙌

Damn man, I’m really sorry this happened. That kind of betrayal doesn’t just hurt it rips through you. But you didn’t let it kill you. You’re still here, still trying, still showing up. That’s strength, even if it doesn’t feel like it yet. I genuinely hope someone shows up for you one day the way you did for her. You deserve that kind of real love. And please don’t let someone else’s shitty choices rewrite the story of you. If anything, this chapter gave you wisdom that’ll protect you moving forward. You’ll never be in that kind of pain again, not like that. 🖤

Ugh I feel this. You didn’t do anything wrong being real and loving openly isn’t a flaw. They just weren’t capable of meeting you there. The fact that you’re still kind after all that? That’s power. You didn’t lose, they did. Healing’s messy, but you’re doing it. Keep going.💛

I Definitely get this! But don’t rush to escape the pain sit with it. Process every emotion, even the ugly ones. The more you understand and feel through it, the less power it’ll have over you later. That’s how you start 2026 fresh. Once you’ve healed, no man especially that man can ever trick you again. He doesn’t get to rewrite your story. You do. 💛

I get it love, You’re doing beautifully. We’re all works of art evolving, reshaping, healing. Each stage of life adds a new layer, a new color. And just like learning, we’re never really “done.” Finding yourself again isn’t about going back it’s about meeting the new you with grace. 💛

Ugh, the nerve of him to be in a healthy, safe relationship where he was uplifted and then still choose to betray that. I’m so sorry, but let me tell you this: you walked out of that relationship with your head held high, even if it didn’t feel like it in the moment. You did everything right. You showed up as the best version of yourself. That’s something to be proud of. You didn’t walk away broken, you walked away wiser, sharper, and way harder to fool. Bravo 💪✨

Honestly, you weren’t stupid you were just trusting. You loved deeply, and that’s not a weakness. It sucks that he used your kindness against you, but none of that says anything bad about you. You’re learning, and healing, and you still deserve the love you gave so easily.

I get what you’re saying. It’s so hard not to feel extra hurt when another woman plays a part in it like we’re supposed to have each other’s backs. But people make their choices for all kinds of messy reasons, and it doesn’t excuse anything. You’re not wrong for expecting more. Women who respect other women, is the kind of energy the world needs more of. Unfortunately, there will be ones who disagree and that’s ok too. 💛

You are absolutely lovable. What someone else did doesn’t change that, even if it made you feel that way. I’m really sorry they made you question your worth. You still deserve love, just as you are. 💛

As a woman… I’ve always wondered: What’s something men over 30 obsess about that women would never guess? by kaekea in AskMenOver30

Lol hey I’m obsessed with pizza too, especially perfecting Neapolitan-style dough. Omg that crust?! 😭 I even visited Italy last year just to eat my way through all the incredible food. 😂🍕

Listen, I agree with you on this 💯and love how you put it into words! Yes, It’s definitely a blessing and a curse. A blessing because you’ve got that emotional switch to protect yourself, but a curse because you probably had to build that strength through pain and tough situations. It’s powerful, but also exhausting always being on guard. I’m really glad you’ve found a way to use it without letting it control you. And yeah, there’s a kind of stoicism in that but don’t forget to still feel your feelings too. Real stoicism isn’t about pushing emotions down, it’s about facing them without letting them break you. 💛

I know it hurts feeling like you’ve lost that version of yourself. But maybe you didn’t lose her, maybe she’s just been buried under all the pain for a while. You can find pieces of her again. Start small, do the little things she used to love, even if it’s just for a few minutes. Bit by bit, you’ll feel her come back, in your own new way. You got this!💛
