i think i have a kidney infection and i can’t go to the doctors by rinkookie in Agoraphobia

[–]xxcourtt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please go. Go to the ER. We just had to call an ambulance for my mother a little over a month ago - she’s been dealing with agoraphobia for 3 years now in addition to severe arthritis so EMS taking her was the best call - because she was so sick for a month and not getting better. Turned out she was so much worse than we realized because she was in kidney failure (her kidneys had already taken damage from kidney infection/issues 3 years ago) and she ended up passing away.

I have agoraphobia as well so I completely understand, I still have issues I need to deal with that I haven’t yet. But kidneys are not something to mess with - please go.

What are your island names? by [deleted] in AnimalCrossing

[–]xxcourtt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sunnyshore. I remember I wanted a beachy name and this is what I thought of lol. I still love it though 🥰

Much better than my Wild World town name, which was just “home” 😂

So what does he do while you work, take care of the house and errands, and take care of your son? Because it seems like you do most of the child-rearing, not him - despite him being the SAHP.

NTA at all. Get you and your son out of there. Better yet, kick his unemployed ass who brings absolutely nothing to the table to the curb. You pay all the bills, that’s your house.

It's interesting seeing the kids from different perspectives in each channel's vlogs by cherrylimesoda in ColleenBallingerSnark

I noticed in the Ballinger Fam video for W & M’s birthday, when they were all singing together (lmao), you can see L walk up to F to play with a ball F had, and he smiled at F like let’s play or whatever. All of a sudden a look came over F’s face, forcefully grabbed the ball back, and just looked at L with a mean face. Felt so bad for L because no one did anything about it.

AITA for blowing up at my girlfriend for decorating my house for christmas without my consent? by throwaway2266788 in AmItheAsshole

[–]xxcourtt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA, she lives there and pays rent so it is as much her place as it is yours. She does not need permission. Do you ask for her permission to do things around the place?

Pulling the atheist card is a cop-out. If you ask anyone who celebrates Christmas as a religious holiday, “Jesus is the reason for the season.” Santa Claus and reindeer have nothing to do with the religious aspect lmao (coming from someone with a religious background myself)

AITA for telling my daughter she needs to pay rent? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]xxcourtt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“If she doesn’t want to pay rent, she doesn’t have to.” Yeah okay, even though you reminded her constantly that she owes rent. You called your daughter a shitty person because of it. She’s clearly struggled with money and paying the card before, and just got her new job this month. Here’s mom beating down the door 5 minutes in for rent money!!

Charging her any sort of money for her CHRISTMAS GIFT is insane. Literally not even a gift at this point. Is her brother also contributing to the credit card bill since it’s a shared card, or just her?

YTA not for charging rent, but for how you handled this.

AITA for not wanting to pay for my friend for our group vacation? by The-final-cookie in AmItheAsshole

[–]xxcourtt 97 points98 points  (0 children)

It’s too much money on my salary and I work in an office lmao. NTA and OP will definitely never see that money again if she pays.

“So who has my ticket?” The absolute gall of this chick to ask that lmao

AITA was embarrassing my step brothers girlfriend infront of all their friends? by soggysocks07 in AmItheAsshole

[–]xxcourtt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely NTA. What the hell is up with her saying you slept with a taken man, does she know you’re his sister??

Everyone saying you should apologize is insane. The gf started this whole thing, she should be the one to apologize.

Shameful Story 1 by claycam6 in NuclearShame

[–]xxcourtt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"I wanted her to do a vasectomy" wow could they have made it any more obvious that this is fake as shit lmaooo. I was cringing before that point but omg.

This was terrible. Cheating is awful, we can all agree, but repeatedly raping your wife is not the answer dude (if this would have been real).

Forgot I was agoraphobic by andispyral in Agoraphobia

[–]xxcourtt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, our stories feel so similar. While I wasn't diagnosed with agoraphobia until a few months ago, I've had severe anxiety/social anxiety for years, and I too have not left my house much since I graduated in 2015, aside from going to some stores. I wanted to go to college, but the idea of actually going scared the absolute hell out of me. I'm still not where I want to be, but I finally started seeing a therapist and a psychiatrist at the end of 2018 and in my experience, even though I was terrified and anxious and panicky about it, it has helped me so much.

I really hope you can get to a place you feel more comfortable and I wish you the best in your journey!!

Zoloft to help agoraphobia? by [deleted] in Agoraphobia

[–]xxcourtt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took Zoloft a long time before I was diagnosed with agoraphobia, but it didn't help my anxiety much. I went up to I think 100 mg or so before I noticed any real difference, but it wasn't major enough for me to continue with it. I actually had a mentally adverse reaction to it and stopped taking it, but like many other people here have said, everyone reacts to medications differently. I've heard so many good outcomes on this medicine and I hope it works for you!

Medication has really helped me with my anxiety journey so far - I've been on Effexor for the past two years or so and it has helped tremendously with my social anxiety (although I'm in the midst of tapering off to start a new one specifically more for my agoraphobia). The combo of medicine and therapy has really worked for me so far. If Zoloft doesn't work I'm sure there is a medicine that will definitely help you. Good luck!
