Oh man, I'm hearing more and more about medication side effects. She's the first one I've dealt with on meds (but not the first mentally ill one).
My ex has BPD its what made us split apart it was an ugly mess she wanted to see me pay for supposedly hurting her feelings. The meds she was on gave her side effects, nights she couldn't sleep she would get night mares, all kinds of other side effects like body odor, no interest in sex. Its time to run once she's on the toxic stew of pills she's on them for life.
The nightmares have been happening, yes. Luckily no BO and sex has been fine. Was there anything specific that made you decide to end it or did you just have enough? Even though I really like her, I don't want to put in the time for a medicated girl that might not get better.
Give it time with the meds the side effects will mount up and they will become noticeable. As for me and the ex she had mental illness it was hard to handle her at times we ended up parting ways because it wasn't working out as I said she had BPD. When things ended it turned really ugly between us its made me vow never to get involved with a mentally ill woman ever again its not worth it. They will never change, once they get on the medication their body gets addicted to it, if they ever have to get off the medication it can be pure hell. I don't know what your situation is like but its time to make an exit plan, keep in mind she may go ape **** on you all I can say is good luck.
Thank you for the insight, sir. We just started going out over the summer when I was excellent but once school began, she's a 180 degree different person. I've been tolerating the new personality for the last two weeks and it's time to call her out on her behavior. I really like her and it'll hurt should we part ways but I've survived breakups before. I wouldn't want to be burdened with this much longer as the stress and angst are killing me.
Let me guess she said she suffers from "anxiety and depression"?.
Yes, I found out as a fly on the wall during a conversation with her mom that she casually mentioned going on SOMETHING (I don't remember the name) that her doctor recommended. I immediately googled it sitting on their couch and it was a mood stabilizer
Yep its not like fine wine, deal with mental health women don't usually get better with age.
They get worse. I wasted 3 years.
Go read my posts and examples..
Stabilizers are usually prescribed for bipolars, but you probably know that by now from her actions.
LOL isn't that the truth, my ex caused me a lot of stress when she really ramped things up she wanted to see me pay for what I did to here holy crap I never seen a woman so vicious. She would constantly pick fights with me she loved drama, things would be going along okay, bam out of now where she would start a fight it would be a good one, she would stop talking too me. Anytime I asked her if she was okay I would get the " I'm Fine" I knew damn well she wasn't. The guy she's with now bends over backwards to make her happy, he spends thousands doing it, as I've said before I'm pretty sure he's an NPD so they are feeding off each other.
Yes.. As the stress is mounting up from school, she's been on the semi-depressive side for a couple of weeks. I cannot imagine what she'd be like without the stabilizer.
This is everything I was afraid of. I've only been through two weeks of this and I'm at my wit's end. I shall reading your posts and regarding them as holy writ, sir... Thank you.
Thanks for this. It's actually the exact point I'm at. I talked to her last night and some other stress-related ailments popped up. It's like one thing after another.
