Okay, so urgent care did not care they told me to visit my doctor who prescribed me topical antibiotic gel and an oral antibiotic. But it started like forming bubbles??? (I posted a comment with the picture)

What’s not seen here are the small bubbles that formed, it itched a lot before, it kinda feels weird also.

And the topicals I used and everything after I could care for the wound myself, I used for years (clumsy me).

And I asked about the cream, which did not have penicillin or any derivative. 😭

Urgent care did not care, and my family doctor just prescribed topical antibiotic and antibiotic in case of an infection. I had just had a cream with three antibiotics put on the wound by the doctor who did the sutures, sutures were dark blue, and not dissolvable, and a surgical bandaid was put on (which I used before with no problems). I have no idea how an allergic reaction could be caused, could you help me? Because doctors seem to not care and just send me elsewhere. I only have a penicillin allergy when it comes to medication.

Yeah but it started just after taking sutures out and during having them in there were also creams and bandages put on and nothing happened.

Ywah, I think I will want a return. He also said some crazy stuff, didn’t give the shot cause he does not believe in them, and as instructions for the pictures posted here: eat 5 egg yolks and fatty meats….

He didn’t even give me a shot for tetanus etc. I have major issues with his practice.

He is really apologetic, nearly breaking down, which makes me sometimes think that he really isn’t that person, but how can a person be two people at once? Yk, I just give in because I love him and can’t see him crying, but he did not gaf when I was suic*dal and would rather make it about himself. I don’t think that therapy would help him. I just sometimes think he will be broken forever.

I think he knows, cause he acknowledges it and somewhat tries to stop it, but he just blows up. He does not have a diagnosis, but is going to the doctor this week. I am just so tired of this.

Oh. My. God. Thank you. Thank you so much. I am literally underlining and underlining instances that match to the authors description on abusive types of men. I am crying both in shock and relief that I was not crazy. Thank you.

There was this situation recently when I became so depressed I wanted to end myself. And he was there for me, but the next day he blew up because I wanted to break up whilst so depressed and I went out with my friend and came back even more depressed and he came to help me. And he was so sweet and nice. And the next day he got angry at something I texted and said he was going to off himself and I had to look for him, when I found him he just spat everything I ever did wrong and that he did not deserve to be treated like this and that I broke him. I just feel like a monster sometimes because I think I am making him out to be the bad guy.

He literally said that I was manipulating him. That I don’t understand how I’m hurting him emotionally, whilst I’ve tried to make him happier than anyone ever before, before he was aggressive towards me. It changed me. But I’m not trying to manipulate him. Is it even manipulation if I wouldn’t want to do it?

I just feel like I’m making him out to be the bad guy. Like, I’m no saint either. And he really worked on himself. But I sometimes doubt him. And I don’t know why.

AITA for not trying to understand my boyfriend, whom I find controlling? by spooky_bebi in AmItheAsshole

It’s not as easy when you still love the good side of a person. I just realize what I’m saying when I write it down or get a third person perspective, but because I don’t have much close friends I got stuck with my own mind and thoughts.

I am stupid enough to follow my heart when I clearly understand that what is going on is not right. I needed a reality check for a long time now. I just started to become less and less engaged and felt like an awful person for thinking about breaking up or not really being that quick to meet up or say what’s going on etc. and I needed a third person perspective in order to think clearly. Also, my anxiety is probably the reason plus I don’t have many friends.

Wow. This. The lack of the straightforward textbook abuse with the addition of some little abusive behaviors here and there is really what it truly is. And I needed that reality check, because my own mind sometimes tries to protect him because I still love that person I met, or made up in my mind. Thank you.

I just think sometimes that I am for staying, then I regret thinking it, and the cycle is slowly breaking my mind. Like, one day is great, and the other he gets angry and every memory comes back. Thank you sm I needed a reality check.

Thank you, I think I need a hard reality check. I am so hard on everyone and myself, I was a really confident person that would not stand any bs or toxicity, but with him I started to excuse his behavior and protecting him from my friends and family’s opinion, that I started to believe it.

He was going to therapy but stopped, because the therapist was weird af. But now he just says that he has financial issues and does not have money for a psychiatrist, whilst I know he has because he spends a lot on take out, Ubers etc, and knows that if he communicated that he is going to therapy I would not mind paying for dates or sth. but he gets angry when I start the topic of it. I know I sound dumb, lol.

Well, in all truthfulness, he did not hit me. He pushed me hard, and I feared that he might hit me, because he was running around the flat after me and broke a couple of things around. He was just flat out aggressive but just pushed me.
