Calm down, it only hurts because it’s true.

No, this is what I call Catholic Vegetarianism. They will eat meat but will do it in such a way that they won't allow themselves to fully enjoy it.

Look i know exactly what you are talking about on the line between enabling and support (and i have erred on the wrong side of that line in the past). The problem is there is a notion the depressed people are lazy and just not doing their part (that this is true for some percentage of people). I’ve also tried the…

You know, one of the things that helped put my relationship with my ex in perspective was reading through the comments on articles like this one and reading other people’s experiences. It’s really important to know that you aren’t the only one who has been or is going through something like this and to see what has…

It would be really nice if we could destigmatize mental healthcare in this country so that it could be just an other part of healthcare, which most people would also still neglect. I'm sure he thinks better living will cure that bum knee of his too.

At least with my experience, that was a big part of what we tried to work out in therapy before splitting up. Unfortunately once boundaries have been defined, enforcing them is often a rather daunting task, and requires at least some cooperation from the other party.

Took me quite a bit longer than you to get there, wish I figured it out sooner. Everything you said is dead-on.

Have you thought about couple’s counseling as kind of a therapy Trojan horse? It’s not meant to trick your wife into therapy, but for one, having you to go with will probably get her to go. Getting her in the routine of going to therapy, even for something else, might push her to getting treatment for her self. On top…

You seem to have a lot of resentment about this issue, you should probably work that out. Your post sounds very much like the “bootstraps” thinking a lot of conservatives like to champion. I also recognize that I don’t have the patience for being in a relationship with someone who is depressed either, but this stuff…

I think you actually did a fairly good job of being balanced here, and it’s clearly written by someone who has personal experience dealing with these issues. OP’s point is so many of these articles are written superficially and do put a ton of pressure on the supporter’s role to just grin and bear it. It feels really…

Dude, what in the world compelled you to use FB like LiveJournal and the only me function? You want a platform you can write on from anywhere, get a gmail account and write notes in Google drive. Sorry, I know that’s already in the past but I’m just astounded that someone would enter personal things on a website that…

You seem tedious.

Fuuuucccckkkkk, Every team is going to waive these around while he’s on the field. Hilarious trolling that I’m going to get sick of approximately 3.425 weeks into the season.

Don’t you guys remember this from the SAT?

Sweet, moving to Micronesia to be a walk-on for their FIFA team.

Thanks this really is the best advice I’ve ever gotten on picking up women.

Keep at it though. Talk therapy has its place, but does almost nothing to help with managing BPD symptoms. I hope you can find a DBT provider soon it will be worth the effort to find one.

This thread is why we always hear about celebs being into some weird shit, because apparently people will let them do any they want with them (not that there's anything wrong with that).

It is! #GoGMen

Would humans have furry tails, or odd hairy skin like the rest of our bodies? I think this would greatly affect the range of depraved sex acts people would use their tails for.
