@kjdelay1 ❤️❤️❤️

Sobriety Birthday today marks NINE years of sobriety for me. What a weird, wonderful and complicated journey it has been. Getting help was the hardest thing I have ever done, but has brought more gifts, friendships, and relationships that I could’ve ever anticipated.

@drandyphung Because they aren’t fossils

Damn, it hurts but the truth.

@BiggestComeback I could put an IV in that arm through Twitter, those veins are popping so much!

It must be back & biceps night… I still have to squeeze in a 5-mile run before bed.

A solo amazing singer- cannot wait to see him live in concert again!

@lovewins11011 @Theholisticpsyc Oof- that hits hard. I have a couple very specific memories like that from my marriage 😔

@greerplastics @Theholisticpsyc Yep. And their rage is like this 👇🏻👇🏻

People with narcissistic traits don’t have a fully developed sense of self. It’s a developmental emotional injury.

@lovewins11011 @Theholisticpsyc Such a good description! And the jello is angry and blames you

@greerplastics @Theholisticpsyc Like trying to mail Jello to the wall! They are master deflectors Catch them lying or cheating and it somehow is our fault and we end up apologizing….

mom life is when your measuring spoons have disappeared so you have to measure out 14 1/4 teaspoons of baking powder for pancakes

@lovewins11011 @Theholisticpsyc The response you get when trying to hold a narcissist accountable is just mind blowing

@Theholisticpsyc I am glad you are posting about NPD. NPD can be very destructive to relationships. They typically lie easily and become enraged when challenged or disagreed with. They also have a strong aversion to accountability for their actions, believing others’ feelings are irrelevant😔

@seizuresalad Seeing your doc once every three years will keep you on the patient roster. Otherwise it’s generally a several month wait just to establish care if you do need to be seen. Plus even super healthy people have recommended screening tests, like mammograms and colonoscopies

My doc is making me come in for a “wellness check” on Friday. I tried saying “no thanks I’m good” but apparently if I don’t go in, they remove me from the patient roster and I have to find a new doc. People can’t just be healthy anymore without a doctor validating it.

@Theholisticpsyc Well, my ex refused to contribute to the household finances and did the bare minimum to help out. It felt like living with an occasionally helpful teenager. Is that a parent-child dynamic?

Let's talk about it... HAVE YOU EXPERIENCED THIS DYNAMIC IN YOUR RELATIONSHIP? How so? and what did you learn from it? 👇 Comment below.

Is your relationship with your partner actually a parent-child relationship? Here's how you can tell: (take a deep breath before reading)

@AzzizahYork So this is a tweet about… me?

Question: Your housemate never initiates conversation. She says hi if you bump into each other in common areas but generally avoids interaction and keeps conversation to a minimum, what conclusion(s) do you reach about that person and their reasons for that?

@Theholisticpsyc Umm.. all of them?

Who was the first person who taught you your feelings don’t matter?

@SurgeryBro I was sobbing

I convinced my girl to watch The Last of Us. Saw episode three last night and she was crying by the end of it. What a great show…

@Theholisticpsyc So true! My first relationship after marriage was so intense! Three months in, I realized it was because he was a raging narcissist. That’s when I decided to look for reliable and stable. Someone who’s words matched their actions.

@ARODMDPHD @Nedu_MD It was… not fun. But my (ex)husband wasn’t bringing in an income for any of the three pregnancies, and I’m solo private practice. Thank God I had easy deliveries!

@greerplastics @Nedu_MD Wait what…10days???!! that’s an insane timeline.

@WFKARS Well… yeah. Kinda

@kjdelay1 F- all the way

what grade does your day get A-F?

@bradchoosefi A divorce

What were your best purchases, both big and small, in the past few years? Mine: Small: Blackout curtains (shades) & daily contacts for dry eyes. Both game changers Big: Hot tub. Couldn't pull the trigger on this for years, but finally did and love it. Use easily 4x per week

@Theholisticpsyc Okay- I feel seen. Even as an adult I’m the invisible child

Let's talk about growing up as the invisible child:
