Aww, thanks Pug! *curtseys* haha. I feel like wine, just getting better with age. Can’t wait to be a super model by 80 lol

Thank you so much! I think the change was definitely more mental than anything. I was so depressed and anxious back then. I was also struggling with suicidal thoughts. I wasn’t living up to my full potential because I didn’t see that I had any. Now I feel like the world is my oyster and I am...

“People can see that you don’t value yourself and approach you because they know you won’t set boundaries. This always benefits them, but never you.” - that was the most painful thing I have heard in a while, but I know it’s the truth. Therapy is tough.

I’m feeling pretty dejected. I put someone up on a pedestal only to find out that they didn’t deserve to be there in the first place. It’s funny how I think I am ugly and am really attracted to this guy and he is only interested in me because he thinks I am physically attractive. Fuck my life. I...

Damn, that really sucks. I’m sorry, Pug. Back surgery isn’t so bad… I mean, I guess I have never had it, but I talk to patients all the time who say it has helped them a lot. You have definitely given me more incentive to protect my back, so thank you for that lol.

Lol Have you ever been to a chiropractor? I wonder if that would help you. Yeah, getting older sucks. I have lower back pain too, but mine is because my hip flexors are stronger than my core; I have been trying to strengthen my TVA. It’s a lot harder than you’d think.

Yeah, that’s understandable. I’m sorry you had to go through that and you’re having lower back pain. Is it from an accident or something? (sorry for prying, you don’t have to answer if you don’t want to)

Glad to hear it! I went back and read your post, what an ordeal. Why did you have to get an epidural?

Lol I keep telling myself the same thing. Thank you, I think it will be a lot of fun 😊. Yeah, these fires are ridiculous. I keep hoping for a year without a drought or where we aren’t encircled by fires, but I don’t think that will ever happen.

This is so perfect. Your animated gif game is unparalleled 😂

Hey Molly, good to hear from you ❤️. I’m sorry you feel like this too. Being a human kind of blows. That’s a good idea — I actually have a trip lined up in couple weeks, I am flying out to California for a few days. Maybe I will come back a new person lol.

Thanks, Pug. You’re too nice to me. I’m just in one of those “I wish I could peel my face off and exchange it for another one” type moods 🙁

I feel shitty about myself today. I feel very physically unattractive. I am experiencing a lot of familial pressure to get married or inquiries of if I have met someone. It makes me feel 10x worse because I don’t think I will ever get married. Like no one will ever desire me in that way. I would...

Thank you so much for this. That’s some sage advice. I feel like that’s what anxiety is: control. You’re certainly right, though - I keep “storytelling” as my sister says. I really don’t know how he feels or will react to me, I just keep assuming; it’s making us both look bad. I keep pinging...

Thank you Lily, I appreciate your response. I’m happy to hear that your faith in God is helping you cope with anxiety and feelings of loneliness; those are both difficult to live with. I am not a particularly religious person myself, however I do believe that everything happens for a reason and...

Thank you for sharing your experience. I know this is something I need to do. I have good insurance so it should only cost me $25/session if they’re in my network. I have gone to therapy on and off throughout my life and it has helped - it has just never been long enough to see major...

Hey Pug! It’s good to be back, actually - I really missed everyone. Thank you for your input, I know I need to find a counselor. It’s difficult where I live because there is such a mental health crisis. I have left a dozen messages hoping to have someone call back, but a lot of them aren’t...

Hey guys! Long time no post, I hope you’re all well (as well you can be with anxiety, anyway). I realize this might be a problem better suited for a therapist, but I really need help. I have realized over and over again that I have intimacy issues. I keep everyone at arm’s length so I don’t get...

What a weird fucking year. My ex moved away for a few months and I am so much happier. I have had opportunities fall into my lap and am making somewhat of a career change. No matter how shitty life feels, it always gets better. I am so thankful for everything.

I’m really fucking irritated. I know that we’re not dating anymore and are just roommates, but I have a schedule. I hate having people over and you know that. I hate that you wait to have people over until 3 in the afternoon and they don’t leave until 8 pm. I have to do laundry, get my stuff...
