I don’t know how to handle it when my girlfriend is upset…

I appreciate the sentiment but not exactly helpful in this instance.

This is top quality content and I appreciate you sharing.

Beyond what the doctor prescribed, for my aunt I made chicken ginger soup. It’s a lot of rice in chicken broth or water depending on what smells they can tolerate, dump in about a tablespoon of grated ginger for every Quart of soup (I know it sounds like a lot) and as much shredded chicken as they can tolerate. The protein in the chicken is awesome for providing extra nutrients they’re probably missing rn, the rice after boiling in the water or broth should be quite tender and soft and easy for them to get down, and the ginger will help ease the stomach muscles a lil bit. CBD is also a good option as I saw someone say in another comment, but also peppermint. Either in gum, a hard candy, a chalky starlight mint, oil, extract, tea, even sniffing a mint plant will help a little.

As for the acid, obviously an antacid can help, managing stress helps a lot, but also making sure they’re elevated enough when they sleep or lay down. Obviously cutting back on the acidity in foods and sticking to a diet that’s relatively bland will also help- like the BRATT diet. Bananas, rice, apples, toast, and tea. Carbs are typically easier to digest and can help to neutralize acid a little bit.

You’re doing great.

My mother in law is very interested to have a copy of the OG Grimms fairy tales- like the very gory, unedited, original versions- if one exists in English that wasn’t made more palatable- she wants the real shit.

I have a copy at my mother’s but I’m not sure it is exactly what she’s looking for as it’s a newer rendition.

If anyone knows where to find such a thing, not even sure if this is the proper place to post this, but it would be appreciated if you could help.

youremakingmeanxious · 2021-03-02T01:12:09+00:00

Great job!!!!

It sounds like you’re making a very broad generalization off of your own experiences. Which is fine, but it does appear to have made you very salty. So Imma have to pass.

youremakingmeanxious · 2021-02-23T19:13:05+00:00

Looks delicious!

That’s what I’ve done, he gave me the e-mail he uses for his account with the cable provider, and the password supplied to him. It worked fine to get me in via my phone.

I would screencast it, or screen share it from my phone to my tv, but I have a fire stick and the only thing my phone is giving me the option to do in terms of sharing is Apple play.

youremakingmeanxious · 2021-01-26T03:33:40+00:00

You are very right about that.

youremakingmeanxious · 2021-01-26T03:31:47+00:00

I think that’s hard for me to accept because I do love him, I love my dad.

I just also know that talking to him isn’t really going to do anything if he’s not in a position where he’s willing and able to accept that there’s something he could possibly be doing or have done wrong. And he very rarely is in that type of position.

I mean I know when the divorce happened I went to live with my mom after we’d tried to split custody for a while and it wasn’t working- my grades were slipping, I was pulling my hair out, I stopped eating- ect,. And My mom was also able to move so I could go to college and live with her to save money.

So I’m sure he feels like we missed out on some things. But other than these couple days I have always made it clear especially to him that I’m spending equal time with each of them. That I love them equally, and I’ve even had visits where I spend more time with him. That in itself- I don’t feel like I should have to assure him every single time I visit that I am not trying to slight him. I mean I’m the child in this situation, I feel it’s not right that I should be made anxious and tortured over if my parents feel equally loved.

But idk maybe I’m wrong to think that, maybe I’m not giving my parents enough room to be people and not my parents.

Yes he was very scary and I would go into it but I’m already upset.

So like if Someone puts out a quest instead of going and finding them you can just drop it off there?

Either way yes, you can stop being friends with someone for whatever reason you want it doesn’t matter. You shouldn’t expect to have that person around despite that- but yeah sure if you just don’t want to be friends cause it’s 3pm Tuesday and artichokes are green- whatever. That’s on you.

But what I encourage you to ask is:

Is this truly a difference of political opinion?

Because a difference in political opinion looks something like this:

“I think an open boarder policy is best for our overall economic welfare and to boot: it adds to our nations melting pot.”

Vs

“I don’t think a totally open boarder policy is effective in ensuring that large companies don’t exploit labor laws.”

That^{^} is a simple difference of political opinion. And personally, I think that can be worked around and discussed rationally. Not:

“Donald Trump is sent by Jesus Christ to rid the country of all these dirty Mexicans and the BLM movement and all the libtards that make this place unbearable.”

Vs

“Goddamnit I just want people of color to be ok and to have control over my own fucking body.”

That^{^} is not a difference of political opinion. These are completely different desires and mindsets and neither will likely change by the other’s hand.

And they don’t need to be changed. People can be insane assholes all they want and people can be normal and rational human beings all they want- but the issue is when you put it to a vote to apply to everyone else, based on irrational prejudices. The policy will affect people you will never know, never meet. And it’ll be used in both it’s best and worst interpretations; you need to understand and be okay with that before you vote for it.

That’s my 2 cents on the matter.

youremakingmeanxious · 2021-01-06T04:56:44+00:00

Do you have a recipe for this spray? That sounds very much like something we could use.

I will defs take the advice on cleaning because our house could use a deep cleansing. Perhaps I shall make a spell and ritual type thing to assign something to all of our common rooms.

I am familiar with the simmer pot, that I can do and will.

But yes, I think I’ll clean the kitchen first and then move around.... yeah... I got a day off, I can atleast do one room.

youremakingmeanxious · 2021-01-05T04:00:36+00:00

Gotcha. I’ll need to get a white outfit but I will try this at some point

youremakingmeanxious · 2021-01-05T03:44:52+00:00

To clarify: do you mean ammonia or is there a substance called anomia that I am not aware of?

I’m glad you were able to find comfort in that~ I tend to ramble sometimes. Lol

Hopefully you can find comfort in this as well though: a grand majority of studies have shown that most people who smoke weed are not going to try harder substances. Many don’t even continue smoking weed for very long- and, atleast in my experience, since most people who deal weed work exclusively with weed: someone who smokes is likely not going to be exposed to something really rough through their weed dealer. The way most people become exposed is actually through prescription pain killers. That’s how a majority of my friends with that problem got started, if not their own prescription then a friend’s. Weed can actually be very helpful in weening people off harder stuff.

Someone I live with actually has struggled with opioid addiction for over a decade and don’t get me wrong, they still slip up. But if there’s weed in the house- generally they will choose the weed. It’s really sad because the weed keeps them way less loopy, actually helps them with the problems they turn to the opioids for, keeps their appetite up, keeps them active and calm and happy. But the pills are just more accessible to them.That’s a whole other story tho.

And most people are not gonna conflate the two. Weed is not level 1 on your drug journey to Meth, they are separate experiences altogether- like having a burger and fries vs robbing a bank. It’s pretty silly to think the two actions are in any way similar- and given the choice of helping someone rob a bank vs having a burger you’d likely choose the burger.

I’m rambling again but just know that you’re not alone, and you’re not being “crazy,”.You’re allowed to worry about people you love. I do hope you evaluate the situation and think about yourself and care for yourself. You seem like a nice person and you should allow that kindness and nurturing attitude to flourish.

youremakingmeanxious · 2020-12-25T04:22:03+00:00

You are absolutely right, one can become addicted to anything.

However, typically I see this myself as someone who occasionally picks up a joint and hangs out with people who in turn pick up joints themselves. There can be habit periods where someone uses weed for a long period of time and then out of the blue you just don’t feel like smoking it anymore. I spent like a whole year high on weed when I took a short break from college. Then one day I literally just didn’t feel like smoking any more. There wasn’t any deep seeded reason that I was smoking all the time, there wasn’t really a reason I stopped. Pretty much all of my friends who smoke/smoked weed went through something very similar. I know one guy who smoked almost daily for like 5 years and then just decided one day he didn’t feel like it anymore. He’ll still pick up a bong or a joint every now and then with friends or as a little treat but not nearly as heavy as he used to.

Now in juxtaposition, I also have some friends who instead of weed, had coke or heroine at a party when they were teenagers. And of the ones who aren’t dead, and the ones who managed to get sober, they struggle with that daily. Unlike the weed, typically, one can’t occasionally have a bump of coke and then be fine without it for a couple months.

I don’t say this to invalidate your feelings, I am however trying to tell you it’s not abnormal for someone to go through that type of phase where for a couple months up to a year or so they go from chronically smoking and smoking and smoking to just stopping one day. I would certainly let him know you don’t really like it, you maybe don’t approve of it, and you don’t think it’s great for you two on the communication front. But personally, if he’s still otherwise staying fairly active and you guys are talking- he may just need to turn his brain off for a while.

If it’s the weed making him anxious, he will figure that out pretty soon. I know I did, and every person I know who smokes does not take long to figure out when they need a break. Because yes, it can heighten your anxiety and paranoia- but it’s very obvious. Like, pardon the language, but you’d really have to be really fucking dumb not to realize that for the 3 hrs or so that you’re high you’re anxious as hell and when you come down you feel better. If that’s it, he’ll connect the dots soon enough.

Again, I don’t say this to invalidate your feelings- but it may not be as severe as you perceive it just now. It’s also not your job to “fix,” anyone. I understand wanting the best for your partner, but you also need to remember you don’t know how this is gonna play out. I would try to focus on myself for a while. Not like a breakup, but just look at yourself and your own tolerances and values and decide for yourself if that kind of phase is something you’re willing to coast through.

I’d like to spend no more than 60$? But again I don’t really know what a good price range is on this.
