Reactions from OH when taking MN advice

[Boomerwang]

My DP has often used the phrase 'it's all in your head' when it comes to things such as taking medication for depression, and just today when we argued about his use of the phrase he said 'it's that fucking mumsnet isn't it?' which was true. I'd been reading the stately homes thread from 2007 and although I have a balanced relationship, I wanted to nip this oft used phrase in the bud as I found it patronising, as though I was being silly.

Any other (hopefully empowering) stories from those who read MN and used it to make a change to your life?

I wish I'd had MN when I was younger and when the DCs were small. I may have done things differently.

For me MN gives me a place to discuss matters when I have no one else which is most of the time

When relationship with XDP ended a couple of years ago, I could write down all my feelings about NC on here rather be tempted to text them to XDP.

Its where I come to often about all sorts of stuff.

And Cognito , as usual, is spot on.
