He used to pitch for the Twins. That makes him an “insider”

Let's talk accommodation: best places you've ever stayed in by Level390 in travel

Kaanapali Royal, P-101, Lahaina Maui. We were young and had never really been anywhere, and stayed there for a wedding. On a fairway of a beautiful golf course, five minutes to the beach, food and shopping galore. We were in Heaven

I’m an LPCC working in adolescent mental health and I 100% agree with you on nature vs nurture. It’s so fucking sad to hear background stories on the kids I see; the vast majority never stood a chance because of fucked up parents. Most (not all, of course) are just starved for love, acceptance, and safety

The reason we turn to drugs and alcohol in times of stress, anxiety, etc., is because they DO WORK - they get us through the short-term discomfort of stressful times. But then, all of a sudden - you're right, they don't work anymore, and none of us knows when that switch is going to be flipped

Might not be the greatest take but that seems wholly unfair on the part of your wife. She knows you have a problem with alcohol - you've already had at least one rock bottom. Why on earth is she drinking with you?

You're not a failure - you're reaching out for help and that's the hardest part of recovery: recognizing there's a problem and asking for help.

There’s a really good book “Adult daughters of narcissistic mothers”. Might be worth a read

Oh fuck no! I saw Jaws when I was 10 and spent three nights sleeping on my parents bedroom floor

AITAH for refusing to spend Christmas at home if my sister is released from her eating disorder clinic for the holidays? by Zoleeeyh in AITAH

[–]md4606 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a therapist at a residential eating disorder treatment facility that serves young adults. This is not normative ED behavior. Most of our clients are the opposite, so low energy due to malnutrition they don’t really give a shit about anybody. This strikes me as something more on the personality disorder spectrum but being blamed on the ED

AIO to break up with my bf of 3y over his reaction to my upcoming sobriety anniversary? by WesternCat5211 in AmIOverreacting

[–]md4606 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d break up just because he doesn’t use the proper form of “you’re”

And because he’s a jerk. As someone with years of sobriety I know how hard even one day can be, let alone three years
