I didn't realize I needed friends who sent me random stuff like this until it got sent to me. Wow, was that a powerful message for me.
If you have a friend that's going through a hard time, a message like this might be just what they need.
Reading a Terry Pratchett book is literally just: Here's a funny little joke Here's something that you can tell is a joke but don't get and will only figure out five years later Here's a surprisingly cool fantasy concept Here's a unique and well written simile Here's a lil guy Here's something that has aged depressingly well into the modern day Here's something that has aged remarkably queer into the modern day Here's a character that you can barely understand what he's saying Here is the most terrifying and deeply disturbing concept you have ever heard, casually mentioned Here is the dumbest fucking pun you've ever heard but in the best way Here is a quote so profound that it makes you view morality and the world in a different way Here is a plot twist that you can't tell if it's genius or stupid Congratulations! You've finished the book! It has fundamentally changed you as a person and you will never be the same!
Somedays are harder than others. Today is hitting me hard for some reason. I should have just stayed at work, but I didn't want to be there either. I don't really want to be anywhere right now.
"Many couples come to therapy when their home life becomes intolerable. They work on removing the bad, and the environment at home improves. Some erroneously believe that this lack of bad is good enough and do not continue the work to rebuild the good, which robs them of the potential potential for soaring to new heights in their marriage. We encourage couples to use the two-pronged approach to avoid settling for the good-enough marriage"
Married roommates, by Talia Wagner and Allen Wagner
"The general lack of openness in society does not allow us to normalize and adjust our expectations. You think that you are the only ones failing at managing it all. Embarrassed, you embellish happiness with friends and family, presenting a facade of holding it all together. There is a general sense of dishonesty about how hard Act II is and how much you struggle. There is no public discussion or acceptance of what is a very real and compounded stage of life. In its lacking, you feel as if you must pretend that everything is awesome. Because you believe that everybody else seems to be doing just fine, you emotionally beat yourself and your partner up in your mind and real life, not wanting to feel you are failing."
Totally just hit me in the feels reading this from the book "Married Roommates" by Talia Wagner and Allen Wagner.

Why are relationships so hard to talk about? I'm on the struggle bus. 2 friends know and 1 of them sprang I to action alerting the pastor of our church. I was greatful for his help because I didn't even know where to start the healing and rebuilding. I knew I couldn't do it on my own but didn't know where to turn for help. So hopefully he can get me hooked up with a marriage counselor
I'm devastated. My husband is no longer interested in me physically or romantically and only wants to be friends. We have been together since 2009. Married for almost 10 years. I just had one of my biggest moments of self growth in the last year and now a huge setback. I don't even know where to go. I can't afford anything on my own and I don't have any friends that would let me crash with them, they all have families and no room for me. Everything about our lives is so intertwined I don't even know how to start unraveling it.
Update: he says he wants to try and start over.

I graduated from therapy today guys! I mostly no longer pick my nails, have increased my confidence, increased my emotional intelligence, learned how to deal with my emotions, and feel like I've come a long way. It's very exciting.
Do you think you do this to yourself?
I think I tend to do this occasionally when my family members gaslight or manipulate me into thinking I'm a horrible person for living normally. When individualism isn't recognized, codependency, enmeshment and close mindedness causes toxic behaviours from others (imo).

Yay accomplishment. I finished the taxes today. I have to pay in butbthen get back on state taxes, net I owe about $100 not bad.
Asked my dad in November about the divorce with my mom. Happened when I was an adult but still living at home, early 20s, was in college at the time. It's been over a decade. Now, in March, my dad sends me a 22 page word doc to explain everything. I don't even know what to think now. It was not even close to what I imagined it would be. Apparently my mom was/is a covert narcissist and I can see it but never did before.
lol i hate today’s era of absolutely zero nuance takes. a friend didn’t behave exactly as you’d wanted them to? cut them off. a guy didn’t text you back instantly bc he has his own life? he’s just giving you breadcrumbs. doing something makes you uncomfortable? don’t do it anymore. someone isn’t instantly available for you? disinterest. just absolutist statements that often don’t apply to the multilayer situations of everyday life. like. stop. literally just stop it
