I’m on my second day of Lexapro and I feel high. Is that normal? Should I ask to have the dosage changed? Is this some weird placebo effect? My whole body just feels full of butterflies but heavy. So heavy I don’t want to move or do anything. But I’m not exactly tired either. Does anyone have...

We all know that there’s suicidal ideation and there’s actively suicidal. But what about when you’re in between? I live daily with some level of ideation, at its most basic where more days then not I’ve got intrusive thoughts of what if I jerked the car this way? Or took this combination of...

It’s possible that I’m just in a bad mood but this comment really irks me. Of course I’ve asked my nephew, he’s a man of few words. He was the parentified child in my sisters house. He’s the one who absolutely does not communicate when he wants or needs things because he was trained from early...

Tonight’s nightmares featured being at some kind of boarding school situation and getting paired up with this boy my age who every time we were alone would rape me. Either fully or digitally. I kept trying to get away from the school or any projects he was on but the other students seemed to...

Tonight was packed full of dreams and it’s not even 3 am yet. Only a few standout but I need to get them out. 1. I felt anger, immense anger. I was working in an office with some other people where clients would come visit us. There was a hole in the roof that was never repaired. That let...

I finally managed to quit my job which I’m hoping will do wonders for my mental health. But then my nephew is in the worst possible spot in the world he could be in right now. There’s the constant flood of Epstein news. I used to work for Lifetouch which has now been heavily tied to Epstein...

One of my nephews is currently stationed in a very volatile area. They haven’t shut down the ability to send packages yet and I want to send one off before they do again. I know to include his favorite snacks, but what else would he and the others with him like? What did you want most?

I have been trying out manifestation lately and a part of that is when I go to sleep I like to put on a meditation video from YouTube. I choose a different one every time, different creators, different videos, different goals, just to spice it up. Typically I will listen and my body will feel...

I feel like this is a relatively good thing. Cause sure not everyone has experience with it to be able to answer right off the bat. But quite a few do and it can explain what it is to those who don’t know. Then it has a decent base line to go off of from the start of the conversation.

Because that whole thread was the other users whole conversation with it. . .

To be fair, I am one who would appreciate the slang speech. When it’s formal, it feels “too” AI, too therapisty, and would put me off it completely. I like the informality.

I still want this. I have a countdown on my phone. 36 days remaining. Just don’t know that I have the guts to actually go through with it.

Starting a gun rights debate was not my intention 😅 Can you elaborate on this? (Not being snarky, I'm genuinely confused by the supposed idea that only Americans are interested in keeping themselves safe). Yes. Here is a list., here, and here. But be mindful that when an incident has no...

What do people generally use for self protection in the UK? I’m from the US so things like pepper spray, knives, stun guns, bear spray, and obvs actual guns are just a handful of things people here carry with them. I can understand things like guns and knives being banned there but from my...

I feel like I did kind of a boss move on my boss and I have no one to talk to about it. I tried to quit my job a few days ago because there’s a lot about it I don’t want in my life anymore. There’s a lot of toxicity and I bring in money from other sources. My boss called me freaked out...
