High thoughts sober is why I need THT my brain never stops. Yall help ground me ❤️

Story one - valid point from the commentor with CPTSD diagnosis (complex, not chronic), as I have that diagnosis too. I went through my fair share of inappropriate and embarrassing crying outbursts, however, always had the self-awareness to excuse myself or advise people around me to ignore the crying (not ideal, but it worked at the time). It would genuinely happen out of nothing sometimes. However, it's not okay for the husband to be treating her like a child, it doesn't help. The lady needs loads and loads of therapy to be better and the husband and close family are the ones who need to point her on that path.

Story one sounds like she may be high functioning autistic, possibly with some childhood trauma she may or may not remember. I have a family member who has similar reactions and didn't find out until 30's that they were on the spectrum. Also, girls who are high functioning are often not diagnosed until adulthood if at all since they usually mask better than boys. I also have my money on the MIL casting herself in a MUCH better light than what may be factual. I think she's been letting her irritation show from the beginning and the girl is probably aware and stressed because of it which makes her a lot more easily triggered.

I’m on the highest dose of Prozac and I still cry about everything 😭😭😭

I need a lawyer/attorney something I need help.

Amanda

I'm having a hard time getting a lawyer. I've got 3 kids at home and we are 23 days in and apparently even though I signed on to legal aid a week after he went to jail apparently he got help using legal aide and I'm SOL

Amanda

Gosh, yeah a completely different state than Washington. I’m truly sorry that does not make any sense. If you do need help finding a shelter in your state for finding resources, let me know! I want to help any way I can!

Lauren

Tennessee

Amanda

I scored an 86 on mine. But I already knew I was in a crappy marriage

Amanda

Definitely therapy is the best thing

Amanda

Morgan your so sweet your crying because you have empathy! Your not a heartless asshole!

Amanda

Where is this? That is insane! Our shelter is guided to help lift barriers to finding jobs and assisting in finding resources for survivors to keep their jobs or find better ones. I truly do not understand.

Lauren

The dv shelters here wouldn't take me because I have a job. Say it's too risky.

Amanda

I work as at a domestic violence shelter as the children’s advocate in Washington state. We have emergency shelter and transitional housing programs. I always listen to all of the stories survivors have shared because every bit of information helps with my work. No matter how many stories I hear, it never gets easier but it is amazing being able to provide housing and 1 on 1 support. I love hearing the the awareness being brought up and hearing your opinions as well. It’s almost cathartic like talking with my coworkers listening to the podcast when these stories play. As for the immediate close tabs, most services related to violence in any form, especially DV all have the pop up easy accessible to 1-click exit to a browser. It truly is an amazing tool and I hope you sharing on the pod helps someone in need!

Lauren

Story one sounds like she may be autistic. Or does have an issue with regulating feelings. I am and I cry at peoples stories. I can imagine myself in their shoes and it brings on heavy emotions ❤️ also remember that when someone shares their experience they are doing it to validate what your story most of the time. That’s a HUGE part of ADHD and they aren’t doing it for attention or to put the conversation on them

Bethany Tilling AKA BirdWitch

Since reading this story I realize how much I tear up lol gotta look into this prozac

Two Hot Takes

Thank you :) I always mix it up because it is from chronic trauma!

Two Hot Takes

I love your videos!! Just a note, C-PTSD is complex post traumatic stress disorder, not chronic!

Lex

The abuse story is exactly what I have gone through and gave me chills but also gave me so much clarity on how much I went through with something like this for 6 years until I finally left.

Jena Spano

I don’t know if I scared a cow where I’m dog sitting from squealing so freaking hard about hearing that Natalia, which is my baby’s middle name called her. I am so happy right now thank you Two Hot Takes.

ashley hoover

THAT IS SO COOL! Our bodies are so wild

Two Hot Takes

Soooo up until I got on Prozac...I cried...A LOT! Sometimes more emotionally triggered than others but being medicated changed my life. I

Mighty MB

The last story reminds me of Kevin can F*** Himself

Isabel De Armas

I have too someone posted the link here. Their comment says the story is fake but possibly someone else’s husband wanted to do this for them BECAUSE of the tiktok so it could still be a true story just sounds a lot like the tiktok

Ally Gilley

Fun fact about crying: there was a study done that looked at tears produced in response to different emotions (happy crying, sad crying, angry crying, etc) under a microscope and they were each chemically different because it’s the body’s way of releasing the hormones associated with the emotions to help relieve an overload of that emotion!

Saachi Mehrotra

I SWEAR I’ve seen the makeup resin thing on tik tok

Greta Plagge

Awe that’s so sweet!

Emily Lever

Not gonna lie it’s actually really cute but still that’s a lot of product wasted

Haley French

I don’t use the app. I watch on my MacBook with safari. It finally worked after closing the page and logging in/out a few times.

Hannah Bryan

That is beyond strange.. I would say delete your Patreon app and redownload. That usually fixes a lot of glitches. Let me know if that works otherwise I'll help troubleshoot with ya more

Two Hot Takes

Speaking of haunted.. I hope you guys do a spooky episode! I love those ones 😁👻

jami love

I use to ask about the ex pretty early on. Just to see how they would talk about their ex, it's so telling.

Nicola Vos

Someone please helppp. Patreon won't let me watch a few of the videos posted, this one included. When I go to watch, it says "please log in to verify you're not a bot." I am logged into my patreon account and YouTube account. There is a link that says "learn more" but when I click it my screen just goes grey. Has anyone else experienced this?

Hannah Bryan

It was a gift from a listener in Denver. It is so so incredible and as comfy as it looks!

Omg i saw a TikTok where a guy took all of his girlfriends makeup and put it in resin “as a gift”. It has to be the same story

Nadja Kruse

As someone from New York who moved to Spain the lack of directness has been the hardest thing for me to adjust to here. It is so hard to find friends who will have those conversations as opposed to just gossiping about their frustrations or in this case, Reddit. Trying myself to have those hard conversations seems to offend people- it’s for some reason that I’ve yet to understand not that culturally accepted to be direct about personal conflict. I found myself sometimes asking people to not talk so incredibly bad about others I knew to me as it made me uncomfortable. It’s turned me into a total hermit (I am moving soon). This story didn’t surprise me at all. The weight of her job is extremely important here- especially in a country with a nearly 30% youth unemployment rate… but I still agree with you guys. It doesn’t make sense to get this angry when someone is preparing to get married, to me.

Cortney Mykins

Morgan where did you get that blanket Justin is using? It’s spectacular 🤩

Emily Lever

This podcast brings me so much peace after such a long day
