Follow up from last years edition (https://manifold.markets/TheWabiSabi/what-will-happen-to-me-in-2024-add)
I will be 100% honest on all questions asked below to help you make the right bet.
1,000@TheWabiSabi is this a typo for “with”, or is it about responding to something she communicated to you?
@snazzlePop adjusted! :) we broke up 4+ weeks ago and are still in relationship therapy, but im not hopeful.
By “not hopeful” do you mean to say that you’re not feeling like it’s likely that you’ll get back together, but in your ideal world, you two would?
Why did you two break up?
Why are you still in relationship therapy? (What’s the goal from it?)
@snazzlePop we do still love each other, but our dynamic isn't good anymore after 7+ years. Also it looks like we have a different vision how our ideal relationship would look like.
@snazzlePop she broke up because see felt trapped in the dynamic of not giving her enough space, we we're already in counseling for 2+ months at that point.
@TheWabiSabi searching for one on a daily basis now. Yesterday had my first interview which went great but wasn't selected because of better candidates.
@TheWabiSabi stress is a MF, lost 2.5KG already after my breakup two weeks ago. No intention to keep losing weight, so will keep an eye in this.
@TheWabiSabi Kudos on starting therapy. Kudos on feeling what there is to feel (rather than avoiding / anesthetizing emotions).
Wishing you ease, comfort, and a greater sense of stability/security this year. 🧡
For what it’s worth, three remedies that I believe are particularly helpful for depression (though not a substitute for treatment/medication) are:
Exercising on a consistent basis.
Staying connected with other people (to get support and also to have opportunities to give it)
Engaging in activities that were meaningful before becoming depressed (e.g. hobby, creative project, educational pursuit, and/or whatever else used to bring joy)
