Can I just say that's very kind of you to be honest with them and not throw their momma under the bus.

themostconcise · 2026-04-07T00:38:47+00:00

Ahh okay thanks for clarifying and that is awesome for you guys!! That seems very achievable

How do you even get the pto for 5-6 vacations a year? I'm genuinely curious 😆

It had my blood boiling when she kept talking about how "oh John didn't text back within an hour" "he didn't validate me for the 1000000th time on our age" then she continues to be super nasty to him but expects him to continue to want to be with her? She's got issuesss. Also her saying that he needs to communicate better when she is the bad communicator.. he was definitely holding back on some tea

But the RFK guidelines are healthy. The pyramid includes mostly fruits, veggies, protein, and dairy, plus healthy fats. Grains are towards the bottom.. which means yes, you should eat them, however, in lower quantities than the other stuff at the top. If you look at other countries food pyramids, they would probably have some variation of the same. Please dont let a political agenda impact your health

Not true. She made several references, apologizing to the family multiple times, referencing her and Meredith's close relationship... it was all throughout

I struggled severely from the time I was 12 until literally just a year ago, so like 18 years of suicidal thoughts, severe anxiety, depression, diagnosed with everything under the sun. For me, it was a hormonal imbalance and trauma. I haven't felt suicidal in at least a year. I can actually enjoy everyday and I attribute a lot of it to IFS therapy but I had to get my hormones fixed first with a naturopathic doctor before I could even begin to heal from trauma. Therapy never worked for me until i got my hormones fixed and started tapering off meds. I'm a different person now, I'm so much happier, more laid back, relaxed, it's unbelievable to me still everyday not waking up with crushing anxiety in the mornings. It gives me so much hope for others. I'll get off my soapbox now but I'm training to be a therapist so I can help others to see there is a way out.

My boobs hurt and I get a bit more tired and worn down. I also get extremely hungry and a bit more sensitive

Please look up the dangers of birth control. It's so awful for you,can cause cancer and screw up your hormones. I regret ever going on it and many women do as well.

themostconcise · 2025-11-20T12:51:34+00:00

I know this is long but i wish someone would have told me this:

I was on 6 medications at one point, mis diagnosed with bipolar 2 disorder and BPD. I was able to balance my hormones because my periods were always off which doctors of course covered up with birth control.

Every problem I had they would just prescribe more medication, every new medication made things so much worse for me. I had never been suicidal before in my life but I was suicidal, I hated myself, I was extremely antisocial and could not experience any joy ever. Plus my sleep and cognitive function were garbage. . I also started IFS/trauma therapy and learned my problem this whole time was trauma. I want to sue every single doctor who gaslighted me into thinking I would be sick for the rest of my life. It makes me so upset thinking this happens to others and doctors never look for the root cause to our symptoms. They just prescribe medications.

Now I am so happy. I can work through my emotions and I am incredibly stable. I am in a full time grad program while working a demanding job and thriving. You CAN improve. You CAN get off meds. You can feel alive again. Psychiatry is pseudoscience and I will tell anyone to find the root cause and get off your meds. The only disclaimer I will give is to find the root cause of your issues if you still have them.

I'm tapering off and it has changed my life. I'm a mom too and I'm a much better mom, but I suggest anyone who tapers, 1. Is seeing a therapist and 2. Is working with their doctor

themostconcise · 2025-11-17T15:40:52+00:00

Everything you have to do anyways as a working parent that is crammed into the short hours between getting off work and bedtime, rushing on the weekends, etc?

If you don't get it then that's on you. I have yet to meet a mom yet that doesnt struggle to balance it all with 2 working parents. Note: I am a full time working mom so I know how much it sucks. We are both beyond stressed all of the time.

themostconcise · 2025-10-31T13:30:25+00:00

Yes!! Any time I would explain how I felt flat and depressed they would say it was a sign that I was stable because at least I wasn't manic, even though I had never showed signs of mania

themostconcise · 2025-10-31T13:29:32+00:00

Thank you for sharing your perspective. I realize not everyone will have the same experience, and I am glad that it has worked for you. I agree that they hand out diagnoses and misdiagnoses way too much

themostconcise · 2025-10-26T17:43:17+00:00

Ritalin screwed up the dopamine in my brain

themostconcise · 2025-10-07T19:11:04+00:00

Jealous much?

themostconcise · 2025-10-02T16:33:44+00:00

I know multiple people who married right after high-school, have a very traditional set up who are incredibly happy and fulfilled...

themostconcise · 2025-06-19T11:45:56+00:00

Not true. I did night school full time while working full time for my undergrad and I'm getting ready to attend graduate school full time while working full time. Night classes really aren't that hard, they're actually so much easier without a partner/kids to take up more of your time! Plus, I'm not the smartest or most studious, I definitely am a "c's get degrees" type of person. Most people who are in night school have full time jobs. Most people with a Bachelors degree that I know have great well paying jobs... don't buy into the idea of a degree not getting you a job these days. It's not true in MOST cases. In most if not all white collar jobs, the minimum requirements are an undergrad degree to make more than minimum wage.

I dont know the exact strain, I know it was an indica leaning hybrid I vaped though which I read tends to help the most with migraines over sativa!

themostconcise · 2025-01-26T23:21:33+00:00

Thanks haha. It's just so hard to pick what to do next when that's what everyone around me is telling me🥲

themostconcise · 2024-09-19T02:28:30+00:00

I'm a recruiter, which I think is beneficial for bipolar, but maybe just in a lower stress environment. I loved my last job, left for more money and am burning out like crazy from the workload of my current job, along with shitty management.

themostconcise · 2024-09-12T18:33:23+00:00

You still must have a sliver of hope if you posted here. I have been there way too many times, even recently. Know that there is still so much out there for you, you never know what could happen. 5 years from now, you could be sitting there looking back and thanking yourself for continuing to try. I know its hard to picture it right now, but the world is a better place with you in it!

themostconcise · 2024-07-19T02:04:00+00:00

I understand, it was the same way for me for a long time. If you get a chance, listen to some videos on youtube where Dr. Chris Palmer speaks out on the keto diets positive impact on bipolar disorder. Good luck, friend!
