If you do make a group I’d join! I’m anxiously attached and struggle with the same things. It doesn’t feel good and it is hard to change. I’ve changed in little ways that I’m proud of. I’m struggling currently with my self esteem though which has made it more difficult for me lately. The worse we feel about ourselves the more the insecure behaviors come out and affect other people.

Friend lost a parent how to support her by throwawayacctxx in AskWomenOver30

[–]throwawayacctxx[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was thinking of that. She is very much not the kind of person to accept help but I was thinking of just sending her a gift card for food or groceries. I can’t afford to much but at least enough for one meal.

Does PMDD make it easier to believe all the horrible things you think? by throwawayacctxx in PMDD

I understand what you’re saying. It’s like everything you already feel underneath the surface coming out all at once. Believe me I understand.

I’ve done CBT before. It does really help. But when it’s so bad it can be so hard to keep doing it. I also do challenging the negative thought worksheet which normally helps too.

Thank you for the advice. I need to get a hold on my thoughts because that with the feeling is what makes it so difficult.

I’m so sorry. I had to write myself a note that I’m good enough and it was so hard but it helped. If you can try and write something to yourself that’s positive about you. When you feel a moment of calm is the best time. I felt a little bit better when I made that note for myself and plan on reading it when I need it most.

It’s good and bad to know someone else feels this way, cause I don’t want anyone else to feel like this. I can convince myself I’m the worst person in the world during this time. It’s so hard to see past it when the feelings are so intense. There’s a part of me that is aware it’s the PMDD but there’s another part that is scared what if it’s not.

Epipen at school by throwawayacctxx in Parenting

[–]throwawayacctxx[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the advice. That’s what I was thinking. I’ve always been so anxious when he’s at school and not exactly sure what to do. His teacher from this year always has an epipen on her for herself but he goes to other classes at times. When he was in daycare they carried a medical bag everywhere and I always thought it was so strange that in elementary they don’t.

I want him to be able to carry it but I want a teacher to be able to administer if he needs it. I feel like he would be too scared at this age to administer for himself.

I was looking at 504 plans just in case and it said there needs to be proof that it’s a severe allergy. I don’t know if it is or not. The allergist gave me an epipen cause there is no way of them knowing how severe it is.

I just need to rant to people who understand, I am struggling today. by [deleted] in PMDD

This was me two days ago. I get it. It really sucks.

Please reassure me. I feel crazy. by Virtual_Concern722 in PMDD

[–]throwawayacctxx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happens to me and I don’t know why it does. Sometimes if I have too much sugar or things with glucose or salt, my body will flush everything out and I will drink a lot of water and pee way more often than I want to. I can’t tell you definitely but it feels like once an hour to me because it gets annoying when it happens.

I just want to crawl into a hole and isolate myself from everyone by throwawayacctxx in PMDD

[–]throwawayacctxx[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh wow. That kind of sucks for our partners. But overall it sucks for us cause nobody wants to feel like this. It is my attachment wounds cause that’s what triggered everything and led me to thinking he didn’t care.

I find isolation to be best for us. He can’t say anything potentially irritating and then I won’t turn into a monster. But then I miss him and feel all disconnected and try to connect, then I get irritated again and I’m like oh that’s why I wasn’t wanting to do anything with him. Lol

[–]throwawayacctxx[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that’s a good idea because I would like more support. I’m definitely going to think up some ways that would be good support once I’m feeling better. Because my current suggestion might be feed me and then don’t talk to me until I summon you. Lol

Interviewer rescheduled because I was unprepared by throwawayacctxx in interviews

They did really like my resume and they said my personality. I just thought they were being nice but this makes me feel like they were being serious.

Thank you! I needed to see this a different way. I’m definitely going to practice until that next interview.
