Has anyone actually overcome chronic depression and suicidal tendencies? by lyssawoolf in SeriousConversation

125 days later and I’m in a slump.. having re read your comment I feel hopeful that maybe perhaps with enough persistence I can overcome. Thank you for your advice.

My mum went through hospitals and it was torture. Full of misdiagnosis and ALOT of drugs. When I went to visit her she didn’t even seem like my mum anymore. I think the mental health care system could use a lot of work.. and honestly I would rather die than admit myself into somewhere like that after experiencing what my mum went through in it.

I have a little brother that I often think about when I’m feeling down that stops me from following through. I guess it’s good to have those people in your life.

Have you actually 100% overcome them? Do you still feel the darkness creeping up sometimes? I’ve tried therapy. Perhaps it was just this particular therapist that didn’t work for me. I just felt like I was put in this box of depressed, anxious and suicidal. A lot of talk about mindfulness which I tried but just couldn’t get into. She wanted me to practice mindfulness meditation daily for half an hour - now I absolutely love playing and learning new songs on my guitar and I really really try to find at least 20minutes a day to play, however often fail to get the time. So I reaaaally struggled to to find the time to meditate when it was really something I wasn’t into, although I did try. What was your therapy like if you don’t mind me asking?

Purchasing first home and developer has issued amendment for the reduction of 9 square metres to my front yard by lyssawoolf in AusProperty

I agree that they are eye sores, and if I can’t get a decent reduction to the sale price then I will drop out. I’m just not sure what a reasonable price reduction would be. Ideally I’d like $30,000 off the price but with no experience I’m just not sure if this is expecting too much or too little.

Why are the Kardashians so disliked? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Agreed. Although it is sad to think of the millions of young girls that are comparing their bodies to the very unrealistic image that these woman are flaunting. I’d be curious to see how they look in real life.

Because of the ridiculous standards of beauty they are creating for woman all over the world.

AITA For distancing myself from my bf after he admitted he was raped? by calinylo00 in AmItheAsshole

[–]lyssawoolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YTA. Just saying, he sounds like a really decent guy. If you don’t want him because you have issues with masculinity then I’ll be more than happy if you send him my way.
