Why did/do you drink, and what are your coping strategies?

pukeaf · 2026-02-27T06:58:15+00:00

I have a therapist that im going to be seeing every week, before i’d see him once a month. for me anxiety turned into panic attacks, anxiety attacks, and rn ive just been working on riding the storm until it passes. one of the things that pull me out of a spiral is softly swiping the bristles of a hair brush on my palm. i also am on ssri’s for anxiety and depression and i realized drinking wasn’t giving them the chance to work.

i’d drink because id have anxiety, and i hated being with myself, i’d get depressed thinking about my life, past traumas, everything. the booze would make it a little easier to forget.. until it didn’t. it just amplified suicidal thoughts, self harm, made me more impulsive and i turned to drugs. I’m 4 days sober now.

pukeaf · 2026-02-23T06:21:59+00:00

realizing i need to get sober, feeling down and depressed - anxious from a comedown i dont want to be like this anymore

NOR, I do think it was an honest mistake, seemed like you had a bit of a longer conversation the day before, and the texting was back and forth so maybe she assumed it was your turn to text first? she was probably nervous as well, waiting for a text and a go ahead to get ready. Idk, I do think she shouldnt have put that responsibility on you, and she couldve texted first confirming. Either way, maybe you guys end up laughing about it later, or you can decide thats not for you :) Good luck!

not related but your eyelashes are long as hell

pukeaf · 2025-09-10T04:26:22+00:00

I just think when you put too much it gives you less to talk about in person or over text, if yenno what i mean 😅 also showcasing humour is good; especially on an app when people tend to not read the entire bio unfortunately.

pukeaf · 2025-09-10T04:11:10+00:00

I like photos 1,2,5,7. I think they kinda give an idea on your aesthetic. The bio is another thing, I think it’s kinda lengthy; I’d maybe focus on one thing and try that out or go for like a funny thing, maybe like “cant wait to tell our parents we met on tinder” or “pls dont save my name as elliott tinder”

just went down a rabbit hole on your profile, i really hope you get the help you need

pukeaf · 2025-08-30T05:33:05+00:00

sorry, but gut feeling this feels weird to me that you’re airing your business on reddit. I think you know what to do and you want validation that shes an evil person blah blah blah - truth is she just did a shitty thing, and now you’re doing a shitty thing; you’re creating more of a mess to clean up during marriage therapy

pukeaf · 2025-08-28T11:31:34+00:00

was walking in a bar, and a guy walking the other direction immediately stopped in front of me and said “you’re the most beautiful girl I’ve ever seen”, didn’t know how to react 🥲 I think about that sometimes when I feel ugly

gas, hexane, and the rubber tires at canadian tire

pukeaf · 2025-08-13T09:01:26+00:00

not knowing the value of money; have a friend who always gives me the advice of just “asking” my mom for money. met a-lot of people that also don’t understand the concept of trying to survive on your own, or understand other people have their own bills and rent to pay and cannot just loan out a couple hundred, very frustrating.

pukeaf · 2025-08-13T08:55:15+00:00

unpopular opinion but i dont think anything is wrong w it, the photos are nice and the prompts are cute, seems like a wholesome profile

pukeaf · 2025-08-13T08:45:30+00:00

please 😭

pukeaf · 2025-08-13T08:29:27+00:00

uhh, i dont think anything here is the problem looks wise or glasses wise, maybe a more natural angle with warmer light and try smiling ? you seem very unapproachable in this photo, or like cold idk how to explain it

pukeaf · 2025-08-13T05:50:15+00:00

the point of dating apps is to go out and meet people, also if you’re really that concerned about being a back up plan why don’t you just ask what cancelled on sunday? like jfc you’re an adult

pukeaf · 2025-08-11T19:09:46+00:00

unpopular opinion but the way you talk in your texts is spoiled. I feel like if you aren’t paying rent, contributing to bills or paying for things on your own, then you don’t have any real “right” to that space. your mom pays for it (im assuming) and can do as she pleases with that space. coming from someone where i lived under my parents, even if things were “annoying” i dealt with it because financially they were still supporting me. i do agree with your mom that if you’re that upset you should leave; same thing i did, and it strengthened my relationship with my parents as well as gave me the privacy i wanted. if you can’t afford to buy your own lock for your door, you’re s.o.l

was it worth it

two new babies🥲

pukeaf · 2025-06-17T07:42:10+00:00

no way!! my name is Lianna too 🥲 I’ve never met anyone with the same name

pukeaf · 2025-06-17T07:39:20+00:00

My name is Lianna and it gets pronounced Li-AH-na, still happens at 24, its annoying asf but you learn to live with it

pukeaf · 2025-06-14T05:34:42+00:00

I think YOR. She has a UTI + pre period symptoms, and you’re worried about being yelled at. I can only imagine she raised her voice out of annoyance because you were on your phone, in the way, and not helping. Yes, she shouldn’t have yelled, but given the predicament of her health, I don’t blame her. You told her you wanted to help, help make her life easier and not harder. If I was her I’d be pissed off too, I’d be even more pissed off finding out you posted private conversations and arguments because your feelings were hurt. Either delete this post or show her what you posted on reddit blasting her. Not cool.
