No, she comes in at the end for any med changes. We’re changing my morning medication to see if they can keep me awake.

I wasn’t able to tell my psychiatrist. I just wasn’t ready yet. I just told my therapist, individual therapist, and group therapist today.

I’ve been having little appetite since I found out and idk. The thing that gets me to eat enough is smoothies. I couldn’t even finish my salad at lunch. It’s not eating disorder like. It’s literally me feeling nauseous and having basically no appetite. It’s weird.

I’m not sure either. And makes me sad to see you go through all of this.

It’s good of you to talk it out. You need to take good care of yourself. You can’t fix him, but you can stay strong for you.

Glad you found a space to talk about it with some people. Did it help?

Yeah. It did.
Also, my dad’s “business trip” was definitely him meeting one of the girls. I saw the texts. My mom was convinced he just got home late from a business trip and told me that, so I don’t think she knows.

learn to set up good boundaries
if they cross the boundry then there will be a concequence. for example if your talking over me. I will remind you your talking over me. if you dont stop I will walk away until your ready to talk.

That’s a good idea. Especially the walking away part haha😆. But for real, I’m going to try that.

I am reading a book on boundrys. it starts out if you get frustrated with people a lot and hold resentment your not setting good boundrys. that’s me to a T. so now I set them. if you dont show up on time and make me late. i will leave without you. i also learned to hold my teenager accountable. everytime you skip class i will take your phone for a day. he would try to talk me out of it saying he was there and they must of made a mistake. etc it’s also ok to say NO. if you dont want to do something dont feel forced tell them no with no need to explain yourself

Oh cool! Haha yep, I’m working on saying no as well. It’s fun.

Currently crying in the car outside my house cause my dad’s in there, so I can’t go in crying.

I’m tired all the time and it’s ruining my life. If I haven’t explained before, I will later, but that’s why I’m crying.

can I ask how old you are?

I’m 18. Unfortunately :laughing:

rebellious age lol living at home butting heads with your parents. I totally understand. just to think a couple more years you will be out and doing it on your own. graduate, get a good job, save money , buy a car and go find a place to rent. todays fears are tomorrow’s stories.

Haha yep.
Exactly!
