I’ll guess I’ll probably give you 4 followups.

I might actually do this tomorrow morning… that would be pretty great.

Well congratulations!!

That's fucking wholesome

I’m lucky with this one, but with every medical emergency I’ve had she has taken me to the doctors and has never once complained as she does worry about our physical health. But sadly I can’t say the same for mental health. I remember once when I was about 13 I went to my mom after a long chat with an Internet friend, and told her that I was suicidal, and she brushed me off. A year after that she found me crying in my room and I told her again between sobs that I just wanted to die. She said it was just hormones and that it wasn’t real. I remember her telling the doctors that “[she] had no idea what was going going, I didn’t know that [OP] was depressed, [OP] never told me anything.” While I laid in the hospital bed after overdosing for my first time. I remember her after that, threatening to drag me to the hospital and get me admitted again whenever I had a severe panic attack about going to school, and at one point she actually did it. She said it was because “I don’t know what to do with you”. The only physical health issue I ever faced when it came to her was because of my self-harm. It got so bad to the point where I cut my legs so deep you could see the fatty tissue, and one of them got infected. I told my mom because I was really worried and she told me to “clean it out and put polysporn on it.” So I did. Every day for the next week. I scraped the infected tissue out with my nails and put polysporn on it every day until it healed because I was too scared to ask her again. Fuck that sounds really bad typing it out now.

If your significant other was cheating on you, you wouldn't want to know?

Im in therapy. It wont help though, i have absolutely no idea what set me off last night. I dont know what to work on.

Maybe ill figure it out soon though

A better solution, beside just swearing off drinking, might be therapy. Confront the issues and put in the work you deserve that to yourself.

Feel better! I want a follow up on this though haha

Instructions unclear…

“Happy wedding day lactose intolerance! Hey don’t write that, her name is Alex”

Oh that poor woman. Honestly you did the right thing. I'm sure she's devastated but it's better to know than to have things hidden

Jesus Christ. If you break your arm, does your mom convince you that you don’t need to go to the hospital because someone else broke both their arms, so it could be worse?

Your mom relying on you like a friend rather than actually parenting you, and minimizing your very real problems (not enough drinking water!! being baited into a suicide attempt!!) growing up in that household as if they’re no big deal, is manipulative as hell.

Anyone can sue anyone for anything, does he have a valid case, no. Fuck those cheating assholes for putting you all in that position. They get what they deserve hopefully. And even though the wife is distraught I am sure she would want the truth.

Honestly my only goal in life is to be comfortable. I’m going to college to hopefully get a high enough paying job to be comfortable and not have to live paycheque to paycheque. I just want to be ok in life at this point. 3 more years and then I can finally be on my own.

I also stopped smoking weed on my own lol. I got tired of it because it was so readily available to me, same with alcohol. I started both at about 14 and at 19 now I barely do it. It’s useless to me, because I hate the thought on being dependent on something so shitty. It’s just not worth it

An actual Reddit happy ending. That's rare. Happy for you two.

My issue is that rent is extremely expensive where I’m at, with 1 bedrooms starting at $1000+ if you’re lucky enough. I want to move away, but I just can’t

idk why you're getting downvoted. It's literally just ashes. I had my father cremated and yes I hold on to the ashes but I wouldn't flip the fuck out if something happened. He's dead. And this . . was a dog. Memories and pictures matter 100x more.

Well this is cute as fuck, gonna sign off the internet tonight with this. ❤️

"Piss is natural" yeah ik thats what ur going to respond, please stop. You commited sexual assault. "it was just piss" ok? your point? You could say that for literally anything. "It was just a handjob" "It was just oral" "it was just cum"

You used her for sexual gratification without her consent. it was sexual assault.

The place we lived at before was $3400 per month, as the city we live in is really expensive. Their cigarette addiction isn’t helpful either, but they both have decent jobs now and can afford rent, the only reason they’ve borrowed money is because they had rent due and immediately after, my cat got into a accident and had to be put down, plus she always pays me back. I know my home life isn’t perfect, I just think it’s personally not that bad compared to other people. My parents have been lazy before with my mom refusing to work a lot of the time, and I also resent her a lot for the things she has put me through. But we’re living rn and that’s all that matters. I don’t want to ruin my relationship with her or my family by any means

It's nowhere near instinct.

Many years ago before I figured out I was an alcoholic I was heavily drinking at the bar. I insulted one of my oldest friends and his fiancée. That night I lost that friend and it wasn't until a few years later did I realize I had the problem. You may lose your friends, but it's ok. You will make more, but what you need to do it figure out why you got so angry and aggressive and fix that part of you. Not drinking will only solve a surface problem and until you get to the root of that problem you won't truly make a difference that will lead to life-long change for the better. I wish you luck and a peaceful future.
