The Wednesday Wellness threads are meant to encourage users to ask for and provide advice and motivation to improve their lives. It isn't intended as a 'containment thread' and any content which could go here could instead be posted in its own thread. You could post:
-
Requests for advice and / or encouragement. On basically any topic and for any scale of problem.
-
Updates to let us know how you are doing. This provides valuable feedback on past advice / encouragement and will hopefully make people feel a little more motivated to follow through. If you want to be reminded to post your update, see the post titled 'update reminders', below.
-
Advice. This can be in response to a request for advice or just something that you think could be generally useful for many people here.
-
Encouragement. Probably best directed at specific users, but if you feel like just encouraging people in general I don't think anyone is going to object. I don't think I really need to say this, but just to be clear; encouragement should have a generally positive tone and not shame people (if people feel that shame might be an effective tool for motivating people, please discuss this so we can form a group consensus on how to use it rather than just trying it).
Jump in the discussion.

Notes -
I know what you mean.
Many of the possible organic causes are horrible.
The Elon Musk delusion has persisted since April / May.
Since July, she sometimes seems afraid of me. Has claimed at least at twice thqt I'm abusive but was unable to articulate any actual abuse.
I think I've already used all the let's go get you checked out attempts I'm going to get.
Many of them aren't though! And some if treated may remit.
With respect to timing .....not really brief, but things can get better spontaneously shockingly far out. The human brain gonna do what it do.
The increasing paranoia is concerning but not as unilaterally bad as you might expect, while getting worse is obviously not a good outcome, it can sometimes lead to treatment that makes things better in the long run!
Try and recruit as much support as you can. :/
