Shoujo Phoenix I don't see it as a huge deal either, but it's been things like this that has resulted in our biggest arguments. Rather about me avoiding extended family things...and well, it almost led to her breaking up with me (I think).
I could just tell though that she was disappointed and it makes me feel so bad.
Pi: I'm fairly certain I have some sort of anxiety. It prevents me from going to class at times. It's just getting worse with age. sweatdrop Perhaps you should offer to plan some sort of extended family thing with her? I know you're uncomfortable hiding your relationship around them but perhaps if you're mentally prepared and doing it on your own terms with an event you're ready for, it will help you become more comfortable in the more 'sprung upon' events in the future and show Marni how you're trying. It's kind of a 'meet halfway' thing.

3.14 I don't know if I have mentioned it, but that is what I take medication for. It's actually an anti-anxiety/anti-depressant. (Lexapro.)
When I don't take it, my thoughts become irrational. I become moody. I throw tantrums and become paranoid. That all bottles up and causes super anxiety attacks.
Defiantly something I am not proud of. I tried to control it without medication and wow, that did not work. I finally broke down one day to my Mom and she made me go to the doctor. A few years ago, I was diagnosed as having depression. I went on Zoloft and it had some pretty adverse affects; the ones that increase thoughts of suicide sweatdrop So needless to say I went off that. Haven't been interested in psychiatric drugs since. I went to a psychologist for a few years and stopped going mid 2005 because I felt able to deal with myself.
Being in a relationship has changed things in an interesting way. Like you, I becomes irrational and moody which leads to some bad arguments. At the same time, I feel like I am strong enough mentally to cope with myself and think lower of myself if I am not able to...which is probably damaging within itself.
I just hate arguments. They always feel like my fault.

It's kind of a 'meet halfway' thing. Last time this all went down, I went upstairs to take a breather after 5 or so hours already spent around people.
Not a pretty result. We talked it out though...and things seemed to have gotten better. Of course, since then, there really hasn't been any big family things sweatdrop
It's not so much her as it is her mother wanting to save face. And she'll do that to make her mom happy. For me, there isn't much say in it then.

Cynder Phoenix Goliathane Apparently, I not only got eviscerated, but also rendered sterile. (Scroll up a bit, though I quoted the message. First vamp to hit me like a man.) Also: Sup Kin. heart I actually disemboweled someone with an attack to the eyes. I can only hope I made the Gator Proud. You sure as hell made me proud. /gg (Also, after like forever, finally got to Elder. I feel all noob because there are people who are like "lol i got elder/slayer in one kill" and it took me nearly two days. Well, only 90 or so bites, but a LOT of tries (I just went for the jugular most of the time).) Pi, you're on Lexapro? I'm actually taking that myself right now. It feels...it's actually been the most agreeable thing I've been on. I haven't had severe effects going off it (well, offline; online, the week I ended up missing was hell for some of my friends), but it's certainly a godsend when I'm on it. I've had fairly few side effects; like, with Wellbutrin (I think), I ended up sleeping all day, and even switching to Celexa upped my drowsiness. (And I talked to my doctor, and they're isomers - or the same molecule, just rearranged a bit.)

I've been on it for about two years. It's the only drug I have ever taken so I can't compare it to anything.
The only side effect I really get is a little drowsiness, which doesn't bother me because I take it before I go to bed.
If I do forget to take it more than one day, I get moody...usually only towards my boyfriend. sweatdrop
