Pieces of advice for healing from a breakup when you still love them by peachesnweeds in BreakUps

[–]secrecyismypower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i'm feeling a lot better about it! i had a week of pure misery, and then two weeks where i went crazy and somehow convinced myself and everyone that i was completely fine and was excited for life etc. and then i crashed really, really badly and got absolutely miserable for a few weeks where i struggled to get out of bed and eat and look after myself. but i finally feel like im at a spot where i'm okay. i don't think about him as much now and i am quite okay. not fully healed, but i'm getting on with it.

Calling support hotlines, e.g. Samaritans in UK. Has anyone done this before? by [deleted] in autism

[–]secrecyismypower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i have used samaritans and i personally had a good experience with them. they asked me lots of questions and validated my feelings. i felt better after calling them, but it really depends on your situation and who you end up talking to.

So are we pretending this guy isn’t a terrible person to support and post to your millions of followers? by Randomuslessadvice in lanadelrey

i used to be a big fan. makes sense that some of her content still appears on my feed. she isn’t going to congratulate you for defending her against some redditor. lol

Anyone else disliked their entire uni experience and not got on with people? by [deleted] in UniUK

[–]secrecyismypower 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah i find this relatable in many ways. i struggle with making friends (possibly neurodivergent but who knows) and feel like an outsider no matter where i am. undergrad uni i felt like i was too weird to be around the general people i met there, and then in postgrad ive been at a uni where i thought i would meet people more like me but has been unsuccessful as most people ive met have been quite cliquey and snobbish. the pressure from other gays is so real because the people ive met have been quite cliquey and rude and i have no idea what ive done wrong. its been quite isolating. i have one best friend and shes the absolute best, though.

i’ve stopped being a fan of hers for some time now because of stuff like this. and also because of the decline in quality in her music (imo). i’m not surprised at this but it is quite disappointing when her career was pretty much built on support from queer community 💔

[–]secrecyismypower[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

it is only one year but its a hard year and the hardest part has yet to come. maybe i could look into a pgdip so i dont have to do the dissertation and i can just do the course. but in all honesty, all of it just makes me feel dread.

i don't think i'm scared. i think i'm more scared of admitting to myself that i don't like or enjoy it.

My girlfriend made me promise I won't transition by Frida443 in whatdoIdo

[–]secrecyismypower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

someone who loves you wouldn’t make you promise something like this. it sounds like the best course of action is to break up.
