I (25F) was in relationship with a man (29M) for 1.5 years.
He was suffering from mental problems and was under medication for his mental heath.
Doctors diagnosed him with Depression, anxiety and schizophrenia.
I was always by his side even I know he is not normal cause I really loved him.
What happened its been few days that he is so down and last night he told me that he wants to commit s suicide by the end of this week cause he is not fine and every second of his life is a torture for him.
I talked to him for hours but unfortunately he said that he already took his decision and will do it by the next weekend. The last words I had with him was like I love you take care and get a nice funeral for me.
His words drove me crazy and I called 911 immediately!
By the way we are in a long distance relationship (6-7h drive far).
So polices went to his apartment and arrested him with handcuffs and took him to hospital!
After few hours he contacted me with massive abusing words and threats such as uploading my naked pictures and sexual videos on internet, stabbing me by knife and also making legal problem for me because I contacted 911.
And I immediately had to contact police again and they came to me and I reported everything cause I was scared!
I as a human had to do this cause he is my partner and I could not see him ending his life and I knew about his decision.
So I had to block him! Cause he was sending me back to back abusing words and very bad words to me and my family.
Did I do something wrong?
I am scared! Police told me I am safe and he cannot do anything.
He has my address, my work place and everything.
My mental health is in a very bad situation.
I need suggestions and help.
Thanks

My boyfriend (29M) and I (25F) have been together for almost a year and a half. We are in a long-distance relationship and live about a 6-hour drive apart. During this time, we’ve managed to see each other every 2–4 weeks. For both of us, this is our first serious relationship and first love.
The problem is that our relationship has been full of arguments.
My boyfriend has completely cut off contact with his entire family because he believes they are toxic and have tried to harm his life. He also struggles with serious mental health issues. He was on psychiatric medication for a while and is still receiving psychological treatment.
Today, I went to work, then stopped to do a little shopping while we were on a video call, and after that I went home. Like almost every day, we stayed on the phone after work and planned to talk until we fell asleep.
Out of nowhere, he started an argument.
He said so many things that completely broke my heart. He told me:
He isn’t happy in this relationship.
He regrets spending so much money on me and on this relationship.
His ex was better than me.
I was the biggest mistake of his life.
I don’t put enough effort into the relationship.
There were many more hurtful things that I can’t even list.
Then he started insulting my family. I finally lost my patience and replied, “Maybe you should fix your own family first.”
I know that was a very sensitive subject because of what happened between him and his family. As soon as I said it, he hung up and blocked me everywhere.
A little while later, he called me again only to tell me that he hates me and hopes I “die like a dog.”
I’m completely heartbroken.
The hardest part is that despite everything that’s happened over the last 1.5 years—the insults, the disrespect, the constant arguments—I still love him.
I’m living far away from my family. They are over 10,000 kilometers away, and I feel incredibly alone. I’ve been crying for hours and I don’t know what to do anymore.
I’m scared that if this relationship ends, I’ll never be able to love someone again. I don’t know how I’ll ever forget all the memories we made together.
I know he has mental health struggles, and I genuinely feel empathy for him. But I also don’t know whether his mental illness explains this behavior or if I’m just making excuses for someone who is emotionally abusive.
Has anyone been through something similar? Is there any hope for a relationship like this, or am I holding onto something that’s already gone?

Hi
I did surgical abortion back in June 2nd when I was in my 5th week of pregnancy.
I got my period on 29 June and just lasted for 2 days
It was a very mild period.
Usually my periods are 4-5 days.
Is this normal?

I live in Montreal and I craved kurdish food (kalana) which is originally from Kurdistan of iran
Anyone knows where can I find it?

I found out that I am 5 weeks pregnant at the end my the may and did surgical abortion on 2nd June.
When should I do the baby check again to see negative results?
Is it too early to do it!?

Hi everyone,

I’m a 25-year-old woman originally from Iran. I moved to Canada alone five years ago to study.

For the past several months, I’ve been feeling very different, and I’m starting to wonder if I might be depressed.

I feel hopeless about life most of the time. Over the last year, I’ve gained about 10 kg because I keep eating even when I’m not hungry. I don’t enjoy spending time with friends anymore and usually prefer to stay at home whenever I’m not working.

I’ve stopped taking care of myself the way I used to. Things like doing my nails, wearing makeup, or even basic self-care feel exhausting. I get sad very easily and cry a lot. Sometimes I just sit and stare at one spot for no reason.

Nothing seems to make me genuinely happy anymore. I used to love going to concerts and spending time with friends, but now I rarely feel excited about anything.

Unfortunately, I also don’t have a supportive partner. We’ve been together for about 1.5 years, and when I try to talk about how I’m feeling, he tells me that I’m “crazy” or that I have mental issues.

Recently, I went through one of the hardest experiences of my life. I became pregnant and found out when I was about 5 weeks along. I decided to have a surgical abortion.

My partner doesn’t even know this happened. I couldn’t tell him because he wanted the baby and I didn’t. We’re not married, I don’t fully trust him, and I don’t feel that I can rely on him to be the father of my child. I’m also not ready to have a child right now. I feel like I need to build a stable life for myself first.

Since the abortion, my mental health has gotten even worse. The whole experience has been incredibly painful, and I’ve been carrying it completely alone.

I don’t know what to do anymore. I know I need help, but I don’t want to take antidepressants.

Has anyone experienced something similar? What helped you?

Hey everyone,

My scooter was stolen around 9 PM at Hillcrest Mall in Richmond Hill, Canada.

I had gone to Starbucks for a coffee and to do some shopping. My Segway G3 Max was locked outside, but when I came back, it was gone.

Fortunately, I was able to track it using the Find My feature. The GPS showed a location about 3 km away from the mall, and it was pointing directly to a specific house.

I immediately took an Uber and went to the location. Once I arrived, I called the police and explained the situation. Since it wasn’t considered an emergency, it took about two hours for officers to arrive.

When they did, they went to the house and were able to recover my scooter from the thief.

Unfortunately, the scooter wasn’t working anymore, and the location had stopped updating in the app. After investigating, I discovered that the thief had opened the bottom cover of the scooter and unplugged the wiring, likely to prevent it from turning on and transmitting its location.

I just wanted to share my experience and hopefully help others stay vigilant.

If you park your scooter in that area, make sure you use a strong lock and, if possible, an additional security device. I’m very lucky that I was able to recover mine.

Stay safe!

Hello everyone. I was on my 5th week of pregnancy and did my abortion about a week ago through surgical method.
But I still have bleeding (not too much) and also pain (like period cramps)
Is this normal?
I appreciate it if you can share your experience with me🩷

Hi everyone,

I’m 25 years old, and I wanted to share my experience because I was extremely scared before my procedure and spent hours reading other people’s stories.

At the time of my abortion, I was somewhere between 5 and 7 weeks pregnant.

At first, I planned to have a medication abortion (the abortion pill), but after doing a lot of research, I realized that for me, the bleeding and cramping sounded more intense than I was comfortable with. So I decided to have a surgical abortion instead.

Honestly, the word “surgical” sounds much scarier than the actual procedure. In my experience, it felt more similar to a gynecological exam than what most people imagine when they hear the word surgery.

The procedure itself was very quick. I lay on the exam chair with my feet in the stirrups, and the doctor performed the procedure. It was a suction procedure that took less than 5 minutes from start to finish.

The pain was much less than I expected—about a 2/10 for me. Everyone’s experience is different, but I was surprised by how manageable it felt.

Afterward, they brought me to a quiet recovery area where I could rest. I felt a little dizzy, so I stayed there for about an hour before taking a cab home.

Once I got home, I ordered my favorite food, got into bed, watched Netflix, and relaxed for the rest of the day. I had some mild cramping afterward, similar to period cramps, but nothing severe.

I know abortion experiences vary from person to person, but I wanted to share mine because I was terrified beforehand, and it ended up being far less scary than I had imagined.

I hope this helps someone who’s feeling anxious about the procedure.

Hi everyone,

I found out two days ago that I’m pregnant, and I’m currently about 7 weeks along. I’m 25 years old, living alone in Canada, and after thinking about my situation, I’ve decided that I’m not ready to have a baby.

My parents don’t know that I’m in a relationship, I’m still focused on my studies and building my future, and I don’t feel able to raise a child right now.

I have an appointment tomorrow for a surgical abortion at a clinic. I chose the procedure instead of the abortion pills because I’ve read that the pills can involve more bleeding, pain, and recovery time, and I feel more comfortable with the clinic procedure.

I’m feeling very scared and overwhelmed. I’m also going through this mostly alone. My boyfriend doesn’t know that I’m having the procedure tomorrow, and I’m struggling with a lot of anxiety about it.

If you’ve had a surgical abortion at around 7 weeks, would you be willing to share your experience? What was the procedure like? How was the recovery? Is there anything you wish you had known beforehand?

Any advice, reassurance, or personal experiences would mean a lot to me right now.

Thank you.
