My boss told me yesterday I was getting an EOFY $1000 bonus which I was thrilled about, but today my payslip came in and after taxes, student loan payments and mandated retirement contributions it was just over $400. I wouldn’t be mad if my government wasn’t as bloated and useless as a beached whale and that the consultants whose salaries I'm contributing to weren’t working half has hard as me for twice the pay. And to top it all off my satisfyer died when I was right on the edge and I nearly smashed it open with a hammer because I was so furious. I’m writing this while I wait for it to charge kek

I will do it I will recover from my Ed. It doesn’t serve me anymore and now it can go. Maybe I needed it to cope or what but those times are over. I tried to recover before and I gained weight and was healthy for once only to hear that I’m fat now from so called friends. But those people are also gone thank God and I hope karma is real you toxic ass cunt. I have significant ana face and I hate it. I feel frail and old. I believe there is enough healing power in my body and I can bounce back, I never tortured my body too much. I always tried to love it as much as I could. And my body loves me so much now is time to give it all back. I stopped smoking already because I just cannot do this to my body and I bought cake and chocolate and peanut butter. The only thing I’m scared about is that I cannot keep up with exercise but it’s so important because I have an athletic body type and I look so so bad flabby. I know it’s all in me and I can do it but it’s so much my head is spinning wish me luck nonnies. I really needed to let that out.

I had issues with being bullied by an older man at work and it all finally got sorted and he got dismissed by hr so my mood has definitely picked up. I want to see my boyfriend make up for lost time. He's starting to stop texting me goodnight and this morning he's just berating me for fuck all so I said hey want me to just come round tomorrow morning so you can relax and he said great and is now nitpicking other shit.

I'm going to hell for sure. Roughly two years ago, a friend of a friend accidentally gave me bedbugs. I had 4 extermination sessions, one steaming session, and I also experimented with diatomaceous earth. The exterminators told me that there is no chance that the apartment has bedbugs as they did not find the usual sign (bloodspots on the sheets, dead bugs, feces, etc). It was such a hassle, the extermination, the dusting, etc that I sort of stopped caring if I have them or not. After a while I started getting itchy spots again but they were different - they didn't swell up, they weren't painful to the touch and they didn't itch that much so I got convinced that the exterminators were right and these couldn't be bedbugs after all. Also, there were still no other signs - no feces, no bloodsmears, nothing. My boyfriend recently moved in with me and I noticed he's getting the same itchy spots but he never mentioned and I was afraid to bring it up at all because I was afraid that he would think of me as unsanitary or something and would want to break up with me. He's been complaining that he feels tired and needs to nap several times a day and if it is bedbugs after all, I'm afraid that it could be from the blood loss perhaps??
I feel guilty and ashamed and unsure what to do. After all the extermination attempts I feel it's pointless to call the exterminators again - especially since there are still no signs of the bugs. And I mean I look for them on a regular basis - I screwed the bed apart, examined the nightstand, sprayed every crack on the walls I could find - and nothing. I just feel awful that I dragged my innocent bf into this and he's affected by it. I was thinking of maybe arranging a heat treatment secretly but I just don't know what to tell him to not come home in that timeframe? Gosh I hate myself

Same, been having an extremely rough time in life with people who keep trying to antagonize me in my work and personal life, and alcohol is really the only thing that helps given weed makes me anxious, I gained like 12 lbs over the past few mos between drinking and stress eating junk food + my friends continually buying and giving me Gatorade and high sugar drinks as chasers/hydration drinks so I'm in the same same boat. I never really drank much but fuck, people who really want to fuck up your life really make rawdogging life impossible. I have no issue giving it up but it really is great just to have a shot to take the edge off every so often. Not fat but 12 lbs feels like absolute shit on my frame and I feel like my body is weighed down. Also hate having boobs now and needing to wear a bra instead of being able to go without one

I hate living at home but I can't move out because after a month I'd go straight into debt while living on two square meters. I can't have a moment of peace and quiet to myself because every 5 seconds my family will barge into my room. I tried asking them if they could stop doing it so often but it didn't work. My friend and me tried putting together our salaries and worked it out but we wouldn't have even a bedroom. Only solution would be nightshifts so I can sleep during the day but I don't want to walk home at 4 am. Trailer parks/camping grounds are constantly being raided by the police.

I wonder if there’s something else in the apartment that’s making you react. Gas leaks can cause skin irritation and fatigue. You need to contact your apartment management so they can check into it

you should make an appointment with a dermatologist- take pictures of the rash if it’s active now so you can show them and talk to them later if you need to wait for an appointment. Definitely note how they start to appear (can you feel your skin change? Do you just wake up with them?) and how they go away (do they fade? Blister?), and note how they make you feel and how long they typically last. Mention the exterminators, and what products they used.

i posted here a few days ago really panicking & sadly things have not improved. nonnies gave sweet encouragement for me to try an snri that worked in the past but my psychiatrist has not even responded back for 5 days now (the office is so bad, they hardly refill my current medicine on time) and im just starting to feel put off from the idea of trying medicine. wondering if i should just keep trying to push through & take baby steps with as much self compassion as possible, and maybe i can increase therapy sessions temporarily.

i feel very tense, panicky, sleeping too much, cant focus. i eat enough & very clean, maybe could use some more water lately…i only take a stimulant the same one ive been on for years and supplements that have had no bad effects ever but i have noticed its been less effective (the stimulant) & i dont know why. im sober and i was drinking a lot of caffeine last week so now i havent been incase it was making things worse. i went for a walk today, trying to keep myself busy, working part time & maybe things will feel ok again.

i just feel so burnt out & stressed..so much to do, so much i truly want to do, but at the same time fighting some weird cognitive issues & brain fog & feeling of anxiety and depression yet i really want to live and feel happy?!

im trying to talk to friends again because ive been isolating myself a lot so i can try to get things done ive been slacking on but then sometimes i feel like i dont deserve to talk tot hese friends when i have so much i need to do. i make to do lists, i try to be mindful with the task at hand, i just feel this constant tightness in my chest. it wasnt like this before. i had improved so much so i just dont understand why all of a sudden this is how it must be. my period is over. i dont know what more to do. i feel bad my best friend has to put up with me being such a shell lately.

it feels nice to vent this all out…hopefully i can feel ok again if i just keep doing my best.

bedbugs are nearly impossible to get rid of. you're better off just burning the mattress in gasoline and getting a new one if you can afford it lol. they burrow and lay eggs deep inside the mattress itself, so it is very easy to miss them. you may want to try buying a really powerful steam cleaner and see if you can steam the bed a few times in the hopes that will roast them muthafuckers alive. even if it doesn't, at least your bed will smell nice.

idk if you are a burger but when we had a flea infestation in my grandparents' home a few years ago, my mom and i went to home depot and bought those diy flea, tick, and bedbug spray kits with the gallon of insecticide that you put the spray nozzle in, and i went around the house and did a full treatment every 2 weeks (which is around the time it takes for flea eggs to hatch). we also took all our bedding to the laundromat and washed everything with at least a cup of borax per load (dries out their exoskeletons). then as a preventative measure, i sprinkled diatomaceous earth on the mattresses, around the baseboards, over the carpet in the corners…all the places i read that bugs like to hide. i even went in the backyard and did this, which was sad because i ended up killing a lot of good buggies in the process, but i was so traumatized by being bitten by fleas because we were covered in bites like you were describing. the only difference here is that fleas are a little bit easier to kill than bedbugs, but the process to get rid of them is similar in many ways. it's doable but you will need to continously do this for a few months, if not a year.

This is a stupid vent so that’s why it’s here, I just need to get it off my chest. I work in PR for a conservative city, and run the social media pages. It is very Christian-focused and I guess I should have known this already going in. I’m a Wiccan myself, and I am usually tolerant to all religions, however it gets frustrating sometimes when I have to make media releases for holidays. No other religious holidays are celebrated, and certainly not mine because people here would freak out. So far I just make two separate campaigns for those unaffiliated and for those who celebrate Christian holidays and put more religious imagery in those. It feels so disingenuous sometimes, but I guess that’s part of any job. I feel that we should celebrate all, or none. Maybe I’m also just annoyed that I can’t take off on holidays that pertain to me. Cool, I get Good Friday off, but I wish I could’ve gotten equinoxes off.

oh, i forgot to mention. i also treated all of our cars, washed all our clothes (literally all of them), pillows…anything with fabric you have to treat or else dormant eggs will hatch again. the bugs will usually hide themselves in places you wouldn't expect, like car upholstery, bath rugs, even curtains can have eggs. spray down cracks in the house too, along the seams in the flooring, underneath cabinets…everywhere. anything in the house that was fabric got the run down. if it couldn't be washed i would try to steam it, take it to the dry cleaners, or spray it down with the bug treatment and then borax and diatomaceous earth. we also replaced some of our bagless vacuums as they will crawl down through the filters and just re-enter the home if you don't clean them right away. if you have bagless vacuums, you have to spread diatomaceous earth and borax over the entirety of the floor, let it sit for an hour or two, preferably overnight and then vacuum. take the canister out immediately once you are done, and dump it. if you have a bagless vacuum it is better because they get trapped in the bag and can't escape.

I met a guy at work and he's autistic like me, he's also a gnostic like me, a bookworm and cinephile and a lefty but not the mainstream type, more like a Hegelian one. He scares me, not because he's creepy or something, it just scares me to meet someone similar to me. I don't know how to behave around someone as autistic and interested in the same stuff, like it's great on one hand but idk. I genuinely want to have a friend in him but I'm scared that if I spent more time with him he will develop feelings for me and I'm not interested in relationships with anyone.

My mind goes back to my ex, who was never any better, but in my daydreams he is perfect. In this reality he knows how to love me and it makes me somehow miss him, but the memories I have aren't real between us. I wish I never met men.

I have a classmate that's the most annoying type of moid in existence. I swear to god he's either got some mental block or he's lazy. He dropped his drawing class because he's more into cartoons and drawing spheres, cubes, and still lifes (lives?) in general is too hard (it's really not). He's still in my design class though and this dude is so behind, I'm surprised he hasn't dropped out of school completely at this point. There's literally three confirmed people in that class on the spectrum and one of them is fairly slow at finishing their work, but he still turns in his stuff on time. This dude though just can't get his shit together and is blaming it on the teacher introducing concepts too fast and not giving enough time. He's literally the only person that is this behind.

I also suspect he's gonna troon out at some point because he seems to be a terminally online twitter user and thinks the tranny (ugly Neanderthal phenotype too) in class is cool and said his ugly ass dress was cute.

I have experienced gender dysphoria since I was 9 and I’m starting to realize that this is something I’m either going to have to repress for the rest of my life or give into the urges and troon out. If I do go on T I wouldn’t go out of my way to force everyone to use male pronouns for me, but I have this fear that no matter which path I choose I will always be miserable, and it will never be enough. My greatest fear is that if I go on testosterone, I’ll end up wanting top surgery, and if I get top surgery, I’ll probably still feel like it isn’t enough and I’ll get bottom surgery or something. But if I don’t go on testosterone, I will be miserable and suicidal. I have read all of the radfem/GC literature in the world and nothing has helped. I’m starting to think it’s a genetic thing bc my dad is a closeted tranny too. I am so scared, I already get sm shit as a gender nonconforming woman, I can’t imagine how much worse it is for trannies

I feel sorry that you clearly have extreme trauma about existing as a woman. Unfortunately, none of that will go away even after you cut off your tits and drank poison. It's magical thinking. You will never be a male man or enjoy male man privilege or a male man body, you will always be treated like a failed woman. On top of incurring health issues, worsened depression after the initial high wears off, you'll then either detransition or kill yourself. You should focus on practicing distress tolerance, body neutrality and procuring relationships with women who aren't retarded.

since you've mentioned having an eating disorder before then you know how things keep developing even further despite reaching the goals you've set. you're right in that you'll make yourself even more miserable but you need to know that that misery will be worse than the one you'll experience if you only keep dwelling on it without any of the permanent decisions. the only real way for you to get past this self loathing is, i know much easier said than done but by trying to change the way you think. you've said that you read feminist books on this topic so i believe you've deconstructed it but i'll still recommend looking into it more, maybe from the points of view of women who have actually transitioned and not just desisted will be more effective. also this might sound mean spirited but try to decrease your internet use for a bit, you've experienced dysphoria since the age of 9 so it's possible that you didn't use it as much then but see if anything has changed. i know it's made me feel better even if i was initially afraid as i was already internet addicted by early primary school and that much time for introspection freaked me out but it honestly made me feel better in giving me the space and time to think about things and the why and how ( they've developed into the way they are ) of them without any external interference. if you really feel like getting top surgery and have the money for the procedure, try getting a reduction first. an anon posted about having similar features itt before and said that it's helped massively with dysphoria. i truly wish you the best anon! sorry if any of this comes off as patronizing i'm autistic but i'm being sincere

I'm going to preface this by saying that I myself am a TIF. If you have Bulimia or Anorexia, you probably do not have dysphoria whatsoever and moreso have a problem with your fat deposits, which can be fixed with therapy. If you do have dysphoria, no amount of therapy has any scientific evidence to help, and HRT is not much better in terms of research, but since it's 50/50, I guess that means most doctors jumped on it instead of doing actual research on other methods or considering trying everything in the book before settling on something permanent.
Essentially, try everything you can besides trooning. Usually people detransition because it was another issue than dysphoria, they ran out of money, or they had such severe side effects they could not continue. If it helps, that's lucky. If it hurts, it's permanent. So rambling aside, try to recover from your ED first before bringing up your dysphoria whatsoever. If it helps it go away, you were dysmorphic, not gender dysphoric, and you dodged a bullet.
>>1538235
Most therapy offices in the states fire TERFy therapists on the spot if they ever say anything even mildly anti-troon. Like, it's explicitly against most offices ethics codes, so the grand majority are pro-troon and those that are not usually get fired and blacklisted the moment they say anything. The exceptions, I think, are Oklahoma, Florida, and Utah which are massive shitholes for women, especially lesbians and GNC women.
It's sad, really. I think they should at least be critical of children trooning, even if they're fine with or support adults doing it.

My coworker whos a stereotype gothic fat woman that uses gay moid lingo because shes "so gay" as a bisexual who 100% just fucks men, has decided to start calling herself autistic because of all the mental illness tiktok shit. I joked i wish i had meds because im decently sure i have add, adhd, or high functioning autism. She decided to push the conversation into "why wouldnt you want to be autistic?? Its so different" as if it was offending her when she's very much normal, lying for some weird attention. Of course i dont want to feel like a weirdo who doesn't get along with society. Ive felt that way my whole life since 6th grade or so when we were all expected to grow up. I just wanted to fit in with other kids when I'd always come off weird. Now you can't even say you're sick of being an outcast due to a disorder because normal people have decided to self diagnose as "something special". Except for them its just another "im not like the other women/men" bullshit, another "i have issues so you cant be mean to me" while people with actual needs are told to fuck off because they arent some romanticized version of special needs.

as a detrans activist the experiences I have surveyed are more that people realize that their gender recognition is only a social courtesy and not an affirmation of reality, inability to pass how they want, insular dysphoria fanning trans communities, as well as resulting failures of medicalization causing more dysphoria. i have seen little mention of your aforementioned reasons listed for detransition which makes me wonder if we are surveying entirely different demographics. perhaps we have both sought out different environments and experiences, and the people I have surveyed are successful detransitioners who regret medicalizing their dysphoria while you are reading opinions of recessive trans people who simply could not keep up with the physical requirements of transitioning + trans people who simply had to pause their transition. ofc this is under the assumption your statement is based on your personal experiences and not those sample biased studies about detransitioners. anyway there will always be a degree of sample bias to our personal opinions we form too, but we have the luxury of rationally collecting every opinion instead of those that only affirm our biases, so I thought I'd offer my experiences in return as i consider yours

I've had tattoos for 15 years. I always went for the least visable areas. I hate anything that brings attention to me in public so I was wary of that opening me up to strangers feeling like they had an 'in' to randomly critique me. Becuase it happens to women. I know why I got them.. I love them just as much now as I did all those years ago and the last thing they're about is sex or attention from strangers.

On the (very rare) occasions where any of mine show in the slightest.. the rate of me getting approached by men goes through the roof. Though its usually them chatting you up and dying to see what else you have. Men are the ones who think tattoos equal 'ooh she's kinky' They're the ones making it sexual. They're the ones that want you to lift your clothing to show them rest of the tatt. If you're someone who hates attention or has anxiety oevr strangers approaching you.. it is something to consider when you're chosing the placement of them.

Yes, this is based on personal experience, the only other detrans people I've ran into detransitioned after getting into radical feminism and feeling it was hypocritical to not detransition. I hold no ill will to detransitioners, and I think their stories are worth just as much as people who still troon out. I understand the horrors of dysphoria, just like I understand that some doctors force transition on people that don't need it. It's interesting that you had a completely different experience. The only times I think detransitioners are full of it and need to fuck off are when they think it isn't right for anybody and should be banned for adults.

Nta but I've been detrans for about a decade. I only went as far as taking hormones but my experience was that a year on them made me 'pass' surprisingly well.. and once I passed I only felt like a fraud whenever strangers read me that way. It wasn't how I expected to feel at all. I don't have massive regrets because I got to see that the thing I thought I wanted so badly.. I didn't want it once I had it. I skated a thin line where I got to pass but also could come back from it without lasting damage. I wasn't thinking about feminism att.

That makes sense, too. I have a lot of other problems, like autism that was diagnosed over a decade ago. I don't have any trauma related to being female whatsoever, so it isn't that. My dysphoria is so severe that most people struggle to understand it, on top of that, taking basic care of myself is very hard because seeing my breasts, vagina, and lack of body hair makes me panic due to feeling like my head was screwed on some innocent woman's body.

I have a friend so competitive with weight loss. I am no longer a fatty because I did the hard work. Meanwhile she’s gloated about excessive coke use, fasting, and running 8 miles a day. This all happened after she saw my hard work. Ive followed a plan set by doctors; I have not relied on drugs.
Shes now so thin, her skin looks melted off her frame. She complains about “losing her period and cant figure out why” or why her “hair is falling out in clumps.” Ive directly spelled out shes starving herself and she vehemently defends her “healthy” lifestyle while on cocaine. Girl, your mommy paid for rehab last year for your alcoholism. You are not sober, despite your narc posts on fb that are TND level.
My confession is that I refuse to play the role of “concerned friend” in her ana larp. I refuse to beg her to eat. Im over it. She could not stand the fact I am getting HEALTHY, and so she decided to obsess with being the skinnier friend. Destroy yourself/ check yourself back into rehab. Im done rescuing someone who is so vain they will destroy themselves to be the “hotter” friend. Enjoy your sagging skin, lack of muscles and balding! #thriving!!1!
Its clearer now than ever to me that she has always pinned me as the fat friend, and so I am going to keep my rhythm and not skip a beat for someone who is like this. Cant wait for her to be exposed in the ana snowflake thread. I just know her end goal is to be so thin shes checked into a hospital. Absolute cow material and I will slowly exit this friendship. What a waste of life honestly, shame on her. Shes rich as fuck but all her mental health treatments through the years has been nothing if not another performance.

Are you an autist by any chance? I think it makes dysphoria so much worse, you are more likely to develop ED and body dysmorphia if you're an autist anyway. I wanted to be a boy since I remember, I still would prefer to be born a man, but I know there's nothing I can do, I'm just coping with it day by day. I find human body disgusting regardless of sex, and if that was an option I would prefer to have no sexual organs at all, and I have no sex-related trauma. Female bodies just have more of the stuff that gross me out, like period blood. I hate when I feel like the integrity of my being is somehow violated, and that includes things I have no control over, like period pain, or any other kind of pain, that's also why I will never have sex with anyone because I don't want anything or anyone to inferfere with my body, I don't even go to hairdressers because I can't stand how they touch my hair and my scalp. I think autists are detached from their material form and they hate when something reminds them they exist in a body, it's just the natural reality of autism (for the same reason I don't like eating or grooming myself, and I never liked it, but I do it anyway because I know I have to, although there were periods of me not taking a bath for like 3 months when I was a teen, or not eating for days). It just so happens the female body has more of that stuff, from both biological and societal side. More things to remind me I exist in a body, which I hate. I just find male form more comfortable and agile, although not free from being gross. Of course, society also plays a role here, I preferred "boy" toys and I didn't like girly clothes and toys and I didn't like group activities and taking care of others, except for animals, and I was treated like a weirdo for it, but I think I would be dysphoric anyway, due to 'tism. We are able to do the math pretty early and understand that boys can like girly things and girls can like boyish things and it doesn't fucking matter, society is retarded. But that doesn't change the fact we still have dysphoria. I heard physical activity helps, but it depends with me, sometimes I feel like it indeed helps for a moment, and sometimes I feel like it makes things even worse.

Therapy is a meme, don't bother. My therapist in high school literally told me I can't be dysphoric because I don't want to cut my tits off and I don't "present" myself as a male. I already knew it won't do shit, I knew the radfem literature, I knew the suicide rates won't drop after surgery, I knew I was autistic etc. If you don't want to medically troon out, they won't take you seriously.
There's no way out imo, just cope and focus on your hobbies and physical activity if that ever helps. Also cutting off carbs and going on ketogenic diet helps.

People always tell me I have talent in drawing and painting. In art classes I got the best grade by default, teacher told me that I’m omg so talented its in my genes I have to do something with art in my life. It actually already started in kindergarten I remember now. When I draw something people come from all sides and are in awe. I know that sounds like a dirty humblebrag but it feels awful. My art is not that good, sure I can draw a portrait and it resembles the person and doesn’t look super wonky and laughable and it’s easy on the eye, that’s probably why people think I have a big talent kek. The worst thing is because of that I have these huge expectations of myself and that is a burden that kept me from doing art all together. And that would be fine. But the reason I became interested in art in the first place is a person I love so so much who is already dead and doing art is the only thing I have from them. And I feel like I should treasure that and I should start with art again. Help

People are not aware of this so it's not malicious but praising someone for talent and not hard work / skill is really harmful long term. Imagine it's the skill that was praised, it probably would encourage you to hone it as opposed to rely on some talent that was "already there". If you want to fix your situation this is something you'll have to learn to rewrite in your brain, that it's the work that deserves the praise, and therefore the process, not necessarily the result that came by some magical powers that were given to you at birth, which is untrue and takes away your control and personal input. Learning enjoying drawing as a process and not what comes out of it will take a while, but I hope you can get there. If you want to do it, it means you can, even if it takes a while.

I'm hoping this isn't the case, anon.

I also had a cancer scare but it was in my breast (lump, then doc found another when examining me). For 2 weeks while I waited for my appointment with the breast clinic, I was a fucking mess to the point where I needed to be prescribed benzos so I could sleep and not be anxious because I was just freaking out and convinced I had cancer. Luckily, the lumps turned out to be nothing nefarious/likely a cyst or something benign. I know it can be terrifying to be in that limbo of knowing something isn't right but not being sure what it is, but please try and relax as best as you can. If you can, seek specialist counsel regarding this if you feel like your doctors aren't taking your concerns seriously.

I’m so sad. I am so frustrated. I am at the end of high school now. My parents just split and my dad is moving out today. I’ve been so lonely all my life, I have a boyfriend now which I thought would make me happy but it’s stressing me out even more. He ignored me all last night and I cried myself to sleep only to wake up to a text asking me to “be honest and tell him if I actually never had a boyfriend before him” even though he is 100% my first, I’ve told him and its such a weird question and now im nervous and crying because that doesnt make any sense. We were supposed to go to the mall today but he ditched me on that too. So now I’m officially watching my childhood end. My birthday is in three days, I’ll be an adult soon. Goodbye childhood where my parents loved each other and my dad lived here. When we did things as a family. When I loved my grandpa who ended up sexually assaulting my little sister. When everything was way simple and I just wanted to play undertale and swim in the pool. I hate change, I hate growing up so much it’s so difficult right now. Nobody told me how fast It would go. I cried myself to sleep last night. I don’t feel like doing anything at all. I don’t really have friends to talk to either because my boyfriend is pretty much my only friend. I’m so tired. I wanted to have a good birthday this year because last year was so shit but Im at such a low point right now

Somebody is using MY washing machine on MY washing day! And he (with fucking awful fashion btw) took MY clothes out of the washing machine INCLUDING my underwear and put it to the side.

I manage a store and I am getting tired of the autist at work. I have tried everything to help him but I want to give up. I have to repeat the same things everyday. I can't accomplish everything I have to do cause I have to train him again and again on the same easy tasks. The bathroom is cleaned by the person that opens the store so it was always me or the other manager that would clean it. We decided to assign a day for each worker. He complained about having to clean after others. But he's the one that sprays shit all over the toilet and never cleans it, he also always clog the toilet and he never unclogs it, I am the one that has to do it cause he's too much of an autist to do it himself. It was his turn yesterday and he fucking said he hoped it was not filthy. It's all you ffs. Yesterday I bought a salad for lunch and only ate a few bites. He managed to drop it all on the floor (he put it all back in the box and I only noticed it when I wanted to eat the leftovers for diner, fucking disgusting) because his lunchbox is fucking huge and instead of emptying it he just pushes it until he can close the door. You can always hear him complain about our lunches taking space in the fridge and how his old workplace had a bigger fridge. His lunchbox takes at least 75% of the fridge space. He did not even clean up the mess until I asked him to. He is a fucking child and I am sick of babysitting him all day long.

I went to sped school growing up and the diagnosed autistic girls were super different from the guys. Either just so impaired they couldn’t speak or do basic tasks (so I can’t judge them on any of that, just irrelevant to any comparisons or judgment), or just basically normal, bright, overall lovely girls who were a bit too overbearing about anime or comics or Star Trek and a little socially inept and sometimes sensitive, the whole long low ponytail and big binder “teacher did we have any homework” kind of thing, did some cringe stuff but I genuinely loved them, meanwhile the guys were absolute spoiled trainwrecks with no decency, porn and sex obsessed and smelled horrific and harassed the girls and attacked the teachers and so on. Tiktok malingerers from the last couple years are irrelevant to me since they’re so obviously histrionic or things like that and anyone who’s spent time around a lot of autistic girls can tell the difference.

I chose the worst advisor for my masters thesis and I 100% regret it. He’s sometimes rude but he taught my favorite class and I’m a woman with an abrasive father so I figured I could handle his sassy remarks. Turns out that my advisor never answers his emails. My deadline for the thesis is coming up, so I offered to help with the paperwork since he seems busy. When I genuinely offered to assist the process he had the nerve to say if I could have helped if I had submitted the paper earlier to him to take corrections into consideration. I sent it to him over a week ago and he didn’t read it so it’s not my fault. He can’t respond to emails or provide feedback in a timely manner. Every time I’d email him he’d just forget about my emails and say that he needs to be reminded by advisees instead of…just setting a reminder in his own calendar? Fuuuuck this was the worst decision ever and I regret it so much. Just let me graduate and I will be absolutely sure to never bother you again, thanks.

I know you anons are gonna say it's obvious and classic scrote behavior that was impossible to avoid but by my therapist advice I try to not assume the worst so I ended up not seeing this coming… So I have that colleague at work, a moid, we're not close but we work together for 6 years now, recently we started playing a multiplayer game together and kinda wanting to establish a boundaries seeing that I'm talking to him more I told him directly that I only want to be friendly and nothing more and then explained to him how dehumanizing it feels to have everyone treat you as a potential sex partner. He seemed to understand at the time. But now some time has passed; I'm in the game with him and out of the blue he goes like, that was so funny when you said you have sex with everyone you're friends with, I guess it means I'll eventually sleep with you too! And I was in fucking shock, because not only did I not say that but I also really put an emphasis on the dehumanizing feeling of being in such situation. This genuinely comes off sociopathic, and so annoying too. Like sure, I'll now limit the contact but it will not change the fact that he will still be there present at work; and I'm not sure how to navigate the interaction now that he's part of the circle of work colleagues I interact with. I don't want to have to start avoiding everyone and be alone again, but seems like the only way honestly. I'm so disgusted with this situation anons.

I've been in a long distance relationship for 3 years and last month we met up for the first time. He's incredibly funny, loving, caring and seems completely devoted to me. Only problem is, when we tried to have sex he couldn't stay hard. We tried for a whole week to have sex and he was soft each time. As far as I know he's not a porn addict (don't jump me for saying this. I know men lie) and has had no problem with ed whatsoever in his life since. This has obviously made me spiral pretty badly for obvious reasons. I feel incredibly low and my already shit self esteem is now fully in the toilet. We won't see each other again for another year because we live on different continents. I love him and I know he loves me but how can I ever get over this man who swears up and down that I'm his soulmate and the only one for him not getting hard when he's with me?

I disagree with a lot of the outright disgusting homophobia I see on here lately and find it ignorant and pathetic but I am tired of that one specific brand of terminally online homosexual male that conveniently twists any critique of their embarassing arrested development into alleged homophobia. People don't dislike or insult you because you're gay, they do so because you're at the tail end of your 20s (often 30s too) and your entire vocabulary and personality is based upon online social contagion. You would not be keyboard smashing every sentence and posting constant ~shady asf comebacks~ at your ~oomfs~ if you had a fucking life or a backbone. All your language wasn't learned from being gay, it was from spending every waking hour online copying other people you admired or thought was funny. Your vernacular in totality is just you emulating another man emulating an annoying teenage girl. No, it isnt homophobic to tell you to grow the fuck up. Nobody is calling you a faggot or fantasizing about hatecriming you, you are a boring soulless Caucasian man with nary a hint of original thought and it has nothing to do with your sexuality, you just need any reach for victimhood online you can get so you can continue to shit on everyone else while being treated like a protected species.

Anon, I mean this in the nicest way possible: I don't think your boyfriend being unable to get hard is the biggest thing to worry about here.

Who knows what your bf is like 99.9% of the time you don't see him, he might have an entire double life and you'd have no way of knowing.
But to answer your question, yeah this can happen to men just because of nerves. He might also be gay and using you as his beard though, there isn't really any way of knowing. Either way, don't take it personally or let it affect your self esteem. I'm sure you are very lovely and attractive.

I've never had the best relationship with my dad, he's always been distant but now both my parents are nearing their 80s and my mom is finally telling me why she divorced him when I was a kid. According to her, he was very charming at the start of the relationship, never physically abusive, but she discovered that he was a serial cheater and she tolerated it because he was a successful businessman and gave her whatever she asked for. The final straw for her was when she walked in on him fucking her sister. She told me that when he was served the divorce papers he stalked her for weeks and one night he locked her in a room, pulled a gun on her, and threatened to kill her (then himself) if she left him.
All this time I never knew my dad was this kind of person. He never said or did outright mean things to me. The issues I had with him was that he was literally never around for me during my teen years, he was always traveling. Then cut contact with me when he remarried and had kids. Recently he's been trying to call me every week and talk, saying he's sorry about not being there but now that I know all these things about him I don't even know if I can believe him.

You shouldn't believe him. Or rather, your dad isn't contacting you because he wants to make up for how he treated you. He's doing it to lessen his guilt for abandoning you. He most likely just wants you to forgive him so he can feel better about himself.

Also, abandoning you is mean. And ignoring when you were a teenager, also mean.

Don't contact him. He's mentally ill and dangerous, I'm sorry you and your mother went through that but even in old age, he can fuck you over. Is he still rich? If so, maybe you can keep a distant relationship just so you'll be included in his will.

Since the beginning of time humans have worked through their feelings and made sense of their experiences through art, stories, fantasy, things that are made up and not actually real and occurring in real life. These are the same people who are so retarded that they think a character in a TV show saying something problematic means that's the literal views of the writer coming out of the character's mouth and the writer needs to be put in jail. They need people to put tone indicators on their posts because they can't process the meaning of a reddit comment without help. I wouldn't take their opinions to heart.

I'm incredibly sick. It's been going on since last summer. One day I was living life normally and the next I was in the ICU awaiting emergency surgery. I've basically spent 80% of the past year in the hospital and it's traumatising not just me but my family— who are financially burdened by my medical bills on top of everything.

The doctors tell me that while I'm not terminally ill I am very, seriously sick. They don't have a clear prognosis. My medical issues are incredibly complicated and it's just so tiring trying to find treatments that help. I'm on opiates now so I can function somewhat with the pain, but I still barely can leave my bed. Thankfully there's a home nurse to maintain all the tubes attached to me. Whenever I voice my struggle to my friends and family I feel like a pathetic "woe is me" caricature of my former self. I want to be strong for them. I figured posting it to online strangers would feel less shameful.

I don't understand why narcissists "like" me. They just fluctuate towards me and I feel like they show me a glimpse of their vulnerability and sides of their personality that they don't show to others. Like a girl literally tells me she's fake af by telling me a person should always say what others want to hear and keep their true thoughts to themselves, and I'm the only person she openly says it. She's faking it around others, being super charming and chatty and then calling the female coworkers who love her "bitches" and "cunts". She can't stand when I object her or I do something she doesn't like, she literally looks at me like she wants to kill me, with her bulging, creepy eyes. Another moment she can be totally sweet and caring towards me, touching me etc. I don't get it. I'm an autist, shy and quiet and I don't engage with people much, but if I have to express my opinion I always do it honestly, I said I will never pretend to be someone else, even if that means being alone my whole life. Maybe I feel like a safe option for narcissists because they know I won't tell anyone anything about them because I never engage in gossip, cliques etc.? It's tiresome, I wish I had healthy non toxic friends. I feel like this particular person often drains the life energy out of me, talking to me about other people, or passively-aggressively mocking me and criticizing me, then playing sweet with me, and then making me feel inferior again etc. It fucks with my brain

I haven’t seen my father in a long time (+5 years), now he’s staying with me for a few weeks and I reckon he’s such a boomer. I wonder when he got so bitter about literally everything. All he does now is complain and make awful remarks every chance he gets.
For example, we were at a restaurant ordering and our waiter was busy with other table. He asked another waitress to take our order and she specially and kindly explained that she couldn’t take our order because that wasn’t her table. Then my father proceeds to take his plate and ask her if she could take it away (mind you, our table was EMPTY), he only did it to make her feel obliged to do something for us.
We took the metro (which I usually never take because for me it’s not necessary) and it was delayed and pretty full (the timelines here are a mess compared to the country he comes from) and again with the long face, the sighs, checking his watch every 20 seconds and of course looking at other people in a very rude manner. I got fed up and I told him we could just leave if he didn’t feel comfortable and he goes “no, I’m perfectly fine”.
He did it again when we were taking a walk and he started complaining about the people who surrounded us and how everything has changed since he was here. He also told me that he knows he always complains about the place where he lives, but seeing the things he’s seeing here, he wouldn’t complain so much. That was kind of my last straw and I came back again at him with “yes, you’re pretty lucky you’re not living here then, eh? The misery is just for us after all.”
At this point I’m convinced he has some kind of borderline personality or something, he always has to find a reason to complain about everything, when he’s in his country, I have to spend more than one hour listening to him rambling about the same things over and over again. Here, he complains about whatever reason he can find.
It’s like he always has to be angry about everything, acting all defensive as if it was the world against him.

I've been having balance problems, which I guess could be considered vertigo. It happened very recently within the past two months. Doctors (all male) won't take me seriously and they all blame my period. NONE will give me any kind of brain scan. I'm willing to live with this dizzy/balance/vertigo problem if I know there's not some tumor eating my brain or a blood clot, but no doctor is willing to check. I am so upset.

I'm afraid I'm too autistic to play any games other than Minecraft in peaceful mode. I'm very interested in Souls games and RE games and a bunch of others, like I know a lot about the lore without even playing them, but I know from experience I get too anxious over combat, I played Breath of the wild for some time and while I loved exploring, every time I had to fight something I felt like at the verge of a panic attack, it's just really unpleasant with my heart racing so fast and feeling like I'm in actual danger. Like my brain can't separate real danger from fake one, and the medium itself being too overstimulating for me. I didn't finish the game because of that. I finished Mario Odyssey but even there I got so stressed during every encounter it's absurd. But the worst was when I fallen into the pit and I had to hide from a t rex and there was no way to get out of there without having to sneak around him and risk getting killed. It was literally my childhood nightmare coming to life, I was super scared of t rexes and aliens as a kid. After finally getting out of the pit I put the game away for a few days kek. Why can't I just enjoy video gaaaames

Jesus, that's fucked anon.

Can you take a man with you to an appt? If you have a man there, they will probably listen.

Also, make another appt, and if they still don't do it, tell them you want it written in your chart/records. Sometimes, this prompts a doctor to order the testing, because it can open them up to malpractice charges if it's written down they denied your request.

Can you escalate this and file a complaint? If you have insurance, private or govt, file with them. Also, you can file with one whatever organization employees your doctor.

Another suggestion is to suggest that someone else is making you ask them about getting a brain scan. For example, Do NOT say: “I think I have Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome.” Instead, say: “My best friend wanted me to ask you about something. I don’t even think it’s a thing, but she thinks I might have something called EDS. Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, I think? I don’t know. It’s probably rare. But have you heard of it? Do you think I might have it?”

Other examples: "My husband made me come here to get this chest pain checked out." or "My roommate said I had to ask you about having my thyroid levels checked." This approach puts you on the same side as the doctor ⁠— the two of you against your loved one.

Phrase it so that someone else is worried about you and insisting you getting the scan. Best if you can pretend it's a man and then have a man with you at the appt pretending that he insisted you come.

That sounds really tough. Sounds like your brain is really sensitive to the simulation of combat and danger in games. I'm glad that you were able to enjoy exploring and other aspects of the games you've played. There are other games like Minecraft on peaceful mode, but I get wanting to get into a type of video game that your brain is completely unsuited for. I love time management games, except I hate them because of the time limits in completing levels, but I love doing the levels themselves, putting shit together and all that.

Anon >>1538850 gave you some good advice so I just wanted to tell you, while I understand your concerns, it doesn't have to be something as serious as a brain tumor, I had the same thing and I was also scared shitless and my first thought was also that there's something wrong with my brain, like a stroke. I just wake up and I looked at the lamp across my room an I saw it lying down and standing up, again and again, it couldn't stabilize. I wasn't able to walk straight, I felt like I was moving even when I sat on my bed, I felt like I was about to vomit too. It turned out I had bacterial labyrinthitis. It can develop without any pain in your ear and it can last from 1 week to like 2 months if not treated, especially if it's bacterial, and symptoms maybe be either light or severe. I was prescribed specific antibiotics and it stopped after like 4 days, but I had to take the antibiotics for 10 days. I really hope you will get examined as soon as possible and it won't be anything serious!

I quite literally do not know how to show human emotion, especially but not limited to happy ones. I had to force myself to not make many facial expressions when I was young, so now in situations where most people would naturally emote I have to force it sometimes. You know how at theme parks and such they take photos of you on the rides? There are literally photos of me on a rollercoaster with a completely blank expression. Not even throwing up my hands. I'm human though of course, so sometimes I have genuine reactions. I've thought about practicing in the mirror but that would be too fucking embarrassing.

Sorry for the long blogpost but I grew up really sheltered so I was scared of everything and I wasn't allowed to play video games so when I started playing games I felt very similar to you. I would feel my heart race during combat and I wouldn't enjoy the experience. What helped me to ease into combat video games where playing pausable real-time games(where you can pause combat at anytime and get an overview over where the enemy is and you can get some time to think over your attack and heal your characters and so on, so it doesn't feel so overwhelming because the game gives you the opportunity to observe whats going on) and turn-based combat games(where your characters and the enemy characters takes turns attacking each other. That way you get some time to think over your next move since the enemy cant attack until you have attacked). That being said while I'm not as bothered by combat anymore I still have some games where I never finished the boss fight because bosses can be intimidating(specially in old turn-based rpgs). I also still struggled with combat in open world games, it doesnt feel scary to me anymore like it used to but I get stressed and forget what buttons to press. What helped me with this was not rpgs, but rhythm games. Rhythm games are good at making you familiar with a controllers/keyboard layout and teaching you how to response quickly to a prompt But regardless even though I'm good at rhythm games I still fail at open-world combat because the stress makes my brain short-circuit. Alternatively try playing a Souls or RE game with a friend who is good at video games. Whenever I want to try a game that has a combat system I'm not familiar with I play it with my friend who is very good at lighting the atmosphere so I feel less stress, plus I can just hand over the controller to her whenever I start to feel too frustrated. Also it's important to note that music plays a huge part in game design. If a game doesn't rely too much on music clues then just mute the game and put on a playlist of your favourite songs during combat, it will ease the adrenaline that you would normally feel during combat and make it feel less scary.

All that being said, you shouldn't force yourself into playing something you are not comfortable with. If you decide that combat-driven games just aren't for you then don't play them and ignore everyone who tries to pressure you into it. There are gaming communities dedicated to comfy games without combat. What ever you decide to do anon, then goodspeed!

>I don't understand why narcissists "like" me.
based on your description,
- you sound kind of submissive, like you don't have an aggressive, or even assertive, bone in your body and let other people run relationships.
- you provide an audience. You listen to them as they go on and on spouting their bs. There is nothing narcissists love more than an audience.

>I do something she doesn't like, she literally looks at me like she wants to kill me, with her bulging, creepy eyes. Another moment she can be totally sweet and caring towards me, touching me etc.

> talking to me about other people, or passively-aggressively mocking me and criticizing me, then playing sweet with me, and then making me feel inferior again etc. It fucks with my brain
Being cruel then sweet then cruel then sweet is a very good way to manipulate non autists and get them acting the way you want to get avoid the cruelty. Sounds like your autism protects you from this, from craving her approval, even though it messes with your head, so congrats.

You want some advice? Stop hanging out with people like this as soon as they reveal themselves. Don't keep associating with them, tell them to fuck off/that you don't befriend two-faced liars/that you are too busy to do X/do a slow fade, whatever feels comfortable.

With this particular girl, I'd advise a slow fade, or grey rock technique, because she sounds like she could really fuck with your work life, if you piss her off, by smearing you to your other co-workers and ruining your reputation at work. Narcissists are really good at ruining other people's reputation.

Also, consider reading some books on assertiveness, taking an assertiveness class.

I was talking to a friend earlier about how I've been trying to accept things I have instead of constantly fixating on what I don't have in the context of being in a relationship. So instead of fixating on how hard it is for me to picture myself being in a healthy relationship, I've been trying to reframe and think about what I like about being single because honestly I think I prefer being single and it's just FOMO when seeing other people in relationships that causes me to compare myself to them. Anyway, after I made my point she looked like she was going to say something and then stopped herself so I waited to see if she would say it and after a long pause she said "that's cool. I can't relate to that. I guess I have a different experience, but I don't really want to talk about that." And then said nothing. I don't know why that really pissed me off. I guess it sounded really patronizing. I don't mind if she disagrees with me or if she can't relate to what I'm saying, but it just pissed me off how she said it. Plus I wasn't really sure how to respond to that so after an awkward silence I said "well it's okay if you disagree with me" and after another long silence I asked her what it was that she felt she couldn't relate to about my statement. Basically she just couldn't relate to constantly comparing herself to people because I guess that's something she used to do and now she doesn't do it. I don't know why that was so uncomfortable for her to say. There are lots of times my friends talk about things I can't relate to and I carry on the conversation by asking them more questions about their opinions and insights. I don't understand why she can't just do the same for me if she didn't feel like she could understand/relate to what I was saying. Or she could have just straight up tell me her different perspective instead of me having to weasel it out of her because I didn't know what else to say.

I am not diagnosed but there is a possibility that I am on the spectrum. I have autistic family members. I always felt like an alien observing humanity from an outsider's perspective the way that people watch animals in zoos. I also have other symptoms of autism like having weird specific hyperfixations and intense sensory issues (part of the reason I have an ED is because I literally cannot stand the feeling of skin touching skin, I have to put a pillow under my arm when I sleep because if I don't I can feel a fat roll forming under my armpit)
>We are able to do the math pretty early and understand that boys can like girly things and girls can like boyish things and it doesn't fucking matter, society is retarded. But that doesn't change the fact we still have dysphoria.
This is another obstacle for me. Every time I try to talk to radfems about my dysphoria, they tell me that I don't have to be a man to like stereotypically "masculine" things. I already know this and even if I didn't, acknowledging this wouldn't be an automatic quick fix. Besides, it's not about not wanting to be a woman, it's about wanting to be a man.

I do not understand the ouroboros of pretending you have some sort of camaraderie with women when all you do is disparage them. If you aren't attracted to women and you're consumed by everything they do and obsessed with degrading them you're absolutely the dumbest retards alive like you can go dickride and be quiet instead of acting like an Alfred hitchcock monstrosity unprovoked. Some of these people are so comfortable with being ugly people that they do not even notice when they sound psychotic at all, it's just so natural for them.

Im not in an academic enviroment to type out of my internet informal way and also im in the vent thread. Do you want me to type correctly? Fine. And I will repeat myself: anorexics have an importan trauma underlying that makes them act in such a way against our self-preservation instincts denying the life drive and embracing unhealthly the death drive. Maybe the conscious justify this behaviour by "I want to be skynny like x celebrity" but in the unconscious the motives are very different and trauma rooted.
To conceive anorexia as a disease with superficial motives is to ignore the complexity of it and only produce harm. Also why do you think that women are more affected by it? not because we are dumb superficial people, its because or bodies are the only thing that we have control in a patriarchal society and thus we use it to express our negative feelings in an autodestructive way.

I used to be anorexic because I wanted to remain childlike. Most anorexics have this mindset and the ones who think they'll look like supermodels are minority. I've always had a curvy figure even when I was thin and I hated the attention I'd get from literal adult men so I thought if I got even skinnier, those men wouldn't harass me anymore. I knew one more anorexic who was sexually harassed like me as a young teenager and I think this is much more common than anons like to pretend.

Alright. It really is just the simple fact that not everybody with an eating disorder has trauma or suicidal tendencies. Other factors can also lead into it, such as OCD and a need to adhere to certain rituals, autism/sensory issues around food or even a "special interest" in calorie counting or nutrition, catastrophic thinking, personality disorders tying into self-destructive behaviors as a way to either self-punish or punish those around them, having to stick to certain rules because it's quite literally their job and best current chance of making money (typically the case in Hollywood and the modelling industry, especially with child stars), a strong desire to be cared for/fawned over and ill, etc. And yes, sometimes it really is just a girl or woman who thinks she's ugly if she's not skinny, notices that restricting is "working", and just doesn't stop doing it because she's addicted to the high of weight loss to the point that it supercedes health.
From reading your posts, it almosts seems like you have a need to push reasoning that resonates with you personally to the entire subject, and it bothers you when a certain other type of reason is acknowledged. None of these are "less valid" reasons behind anorexia. Multiple paths can lead to the same place.

I really like this reply more! But what if we add psychological concepts like conscious and unconscious, life drive and death drive? I think they expand more the picture of what anorexia is how works in our minds. And yeah, trauma may not be the only stem for such a complex disease but attributing it to only beauty standars is reductionist. So we can agree that anorexia has different stems with different triggers and an important social component?
And yeah, in my last replies I focused in the approach more familiar for me, the trauma related. I don't think that are less valid reasons behind anorexia but if you only atribute it to beauty standars and social norms really falls flat and more if you deny things like the existence and influence of the conscious and unconscious like another replies did.

I can't stand going out with friends anymore. One of them is always late to whatever place we want to go to. Now one of them moved to a place that's very far away from mine with public transport so I hope she won't invite me over too often. They often choose restaurants or cafes that aren't all that amazing. They don't want to go to bars after work as if it were a worse option than going to a cafe that closes down at 7pm and that serves expensive garbage. When we eat at a restaurant they stay as long as possible there after we finished eating, to the point where I had to often insist to pay and leave so I wouldn't miss public transport or arrive too late home. Then they complain when I have other ideas because when they want to save money and can't go eat somewhere for the month they also don't want to just hang out in one of their places (I don't have mine yet) and they don't want to just take a stroll somewhere like in the gigantic park we have here or in places they don't know all that much in the city. Now when I crave something from a specific restaurant or cafe I just go alone without telling them. I think I became very nitpicky when we see each other.

>lady from Puerto Rico ordered very expensive shoes from me and expected me to pay €30 shipping to return them AND offer a full refund (eBay ruled in my favour and she continued to harass me after the fact)
>some guy relentlessly harassed me because I had to cancel and refund his order and threatens legal action over a €20 item that I already fuckin refunded him saying he was ‘legally entitled to the product’ nigga what

i do not care if a celebrity is skinny at all. not all eating disorders are anorexia, most aren't. most young girls who struggle with disordered eating most likely have an undiagnosed form of OSFED or BDD. i have spent several years on ed spaces and most of them are just young girls who have their minds fucked by celebrity and social media. the spike in eds among young girls since the rise of the internet is no coincidence.

>>1539203
OP of the bella post. this is exactly what i meant by my post. her flaunting her disorder and making her entire brand about her starving body is just fucked. skinny people are not a problem to me in media or anywhere, but when your entire identity if your ed and it's being normalized, then you are actively harming people.

realistically you may binge sometimes due to stress. BUT the best thing you can do is to try and buy yourself time between binging. If you can insert enough time and coping mechanisms, you may be able to eliminate the episode completely. I went from being anorexic to bulimic to binge eating to 'normal', yet I have to use coping mechanisms everyday to be healthy and its always a conscious choice. I journal, go for walks, exercise, clean something, cry it out, or drink some hot coffee or chamomile tea. Taking a hot shower helps too. Reset your vagus nerve, do some yoga. Anything to try and relax your body

tell him you arent comfortable receiving a gift from him and pay him back. you really need to set strong boundaries with people like this as early as possible because otherwise he might feel like hes owed something by gradually weaseling closer and closer to you to try and not set off alarm bells in your head, and will try to make your life a living hell when you have to reject him. of course theres always the possibility hes just a friendly guy, but thats relatively rare because even if a guy is happy with just being friends he probably still wants more, and its very hard to find men who like you enough as a person to fully respect your boundaries and never try to push things further.

Sometimes I feel so alone in this world.
I have a healthy and long relationship. I have long friendships too.
But I always feel like no one would truly know me at all, like no one can understand how deep my pain goes.
I see no point in living because I lost the only person that knew me like nobody else, and she’s not coming back because death doesn’t work this way.
Since she died, I knew I would live without a purpose and without a meaning and that’s what’s happening to me. Problem is that too much time has passed now and even when I search for help, I don’t truly think it’s working.
Pills and therapy can only make you go that far but then I have to find a will I don’t have.
I don’t want to live without her. I don’t want to wake up for the rest of my life knowing she’s not here, all my questions unanswered and all the things I didn’t say when I had the time.
And of course people could tell me how she would have wanted me to live a happy life and such but I can only think that I will never, ever hug her again, because she’s just nothing more than ashes.
And I knew it would happen. Every time we argued, when I went to spend time with other people, even when I took a nap instead of being by her side, I knew some day she wouldn’t be here.
We only talked about this one time. Of course she could see how depressed I was, and she told me that she wouldn’t want me to stop everything just to mourn and that I should move on. All I could do at that time was to look at her and ask her how could she live if she lost me. And she couldn’t answer, of course.
My biggest phobia was to lose her. She was everything. I know that’s something that people tell specially when someone is long gone but it was real for me since the first day. I would never, ever love anyone like I loved her, and no one has ever loved me the same way, unconditionally. And I lost her. She’s not here anymore. And I can’t try to sugar coat it, tomorrow I will wake up and she won’t be here, even if I start talking out loud. She’s. Not. Here.
I’m still having panic attacks more than 8 years later because my mind can’t cope with the pain.
I’m sorry for my rambling. I tried so many times to explain this to everyone and it’s not worth it at this point. Nothing is.

You're right anon, I'm gonna do that
I hate men fuck I had the same situation a few months ago, I was talking to my coworker about anime and video games and I was so happy to have someone irl who shares my love for specific titles and then he invited me for a dinner and I refused and it became awkward between us ever since. Now this guy, it was the first person I met here able to have deeper and more intellectual conversations with me and we were talking about philosophy books and shit and I admired his intellect and I wanted to be his friend and he had to ruin it and now I will never feel comfortable around him again. Men just can't see women as people because befriending a woman for nothing than intellectual qualities just doesn't exist to them, they just want to be in a relationship with you or sex you, they never care for women unless they're potential partners, their sisters or mothers or their male friends' girlfriends.

It's still such a tough pill for me to swallow that I won't have my own place anytime soon, after I was delusional enough to think I could for the past couple of years. Rent is climbing and my wages just aren't enough, and I realized how much help my grandpa needs and there's no way he can live alone safely. I don't make much, but it's a comfortable living situation since my bills are minuscule here. Even so, I yearn for sweet solitude. I want to be able to parade around in my panties, to never have anyone calling for me, to never have my diet affected by someone else's picky eating, to never come home to a mess to clean up, to decorate how I want and not have towels and rugs and shower curtains I've carefully curated to be thrown out and/or replaced without warning, to not have to hide my things for fear of them getting ruined, to never have anything cluttering my space that I don't want. I know I will look back on this time of my life fondly though, so I'm trying to be mindful and practice gratitude.

4 days ago my boyfriend and I drank together and I forgave him the second he talked about how he had been treating me that week. He isn't usually like that, he had been grieving over his grandmother, so that's understandable but he kept fucking up my mood and I could do nothing to cheer him up. Once I sobered up my anger had been piling on and I expressed it to him through text that he made me feel like a fucking sponge that couldn't squeeze what he gave to me out all while he was getting drunk with friends and he gave me silent treatment for almost a day. Tells me it's because he's sad he feels like he can't enjoy anything then asks for a break to study for his midterms. I'm hurt, angry and confused but I say okay and give it to him. 2 days no contact, just now I had checked a mutual gc we're in and I see he's been pretty active and I'm like did he just want to get away from me…? I wish he had just said that.

My husband's sister and her husband are visiting. Husband is very close to sister, so we've both been anxious about making them comfortable while she's here. However I've also been busy with work and generally like my own space so tensions have been a little high.

Last night we were playing some jackbox game together where everyone gets the prompt but one person, who has to pretend that they also got the prompt. The prompt was "point at your favorite person." SIL and BIL point at each other obviously. I point at my husband. He points at himself.

I go into a "Oh, he must be the faker, he would have pointed at me otherwise" thing for the 30 seconds we get to deliberate. Turns out he was not the faker. I was so humiliated.

Later on he apologizes and says in that moment his brain didn't want to make a choice between me and his sister, but it felt so alienating to have the other couple pointing at each other, and me pointing at him, but no one pointing at me.

He already apologized and the guests are still here so I must vent online.

I AM WHAT UGLY LOOKS LIKE. Not you sally whose thin, with nice skin, sure you may have a big nose or some acne spots, maybe your hair is too thin or something but you aren't fucking ugly.
I am. I'm ugly. I think I unlocked a new way to cope with my agrophobia and get out, I need to truly train myself to view myself as deformed. Being as ugly as I am, while being fat is my personal deformity. I need to tell myself, "anon you are ugly, nobody cares about you, just go on with life. Who cares if someone thinks you are ugly or fat? Wonders why you have dark skin on the side of your ugly pie face? You are ugly. You need to get the fuck on with life or die".
And in a way it brings me comfort. I'm ugly and it doesn't matter anymore. I've been agrophobic since…2014 and I believe it picked up as extreme in..2016 or so. I have never worked, I've only gotten fatter and more mentally ill.

As the TIF who accidentally blogposted (the no1curr redtext) and a resident cow, you have my word I left the thread when told to fuck off, and it helped clear my head. I think I'd benefit by not discussing semantics while on one hour of sleep. What I said made no sense, but in an autist's sleep deprived brain it seems plausible in the moment.
I think detransitioners have a very good reason to discuss the dangers of transitioning, but them acting like just because it was right for them doesn't mean it's right for others, is retarded. Trooning out should be the very last resort, when all options were exhausted, for full grown adults, and nothing else, but it should not be banned. Risperidone, for example, worked for me when all therapy options were exhausted with little to no results. But that finally did the trick. I feel like detransitioners would benefit by realizing all things have nuance, as should other troons.
That's why I like the radfems here. Outside of /2x/ and the tranny threads, they're usually very insightful and help me learn both about radical feminism, and of their takes on everything. I genuinely love the nonnas here and want the best for them, even if they disagree with me on some things.

this is so stupid but i hate myself so much.

for some context, i'm disabled… actually disabled, i had major surgery on my legs when i was 10 years old and that was pretty much a predictor for the rest of my life. so i can't do a lot physically, which is bad enough. but on top of that, i have a lot of foods i physically can't eat, the details of which mean it's hard to eat healthy. i try. i try so fucking hard. but trying to stay healthy when i'm like this is sisyphean. long story short, i'm a little heavy. i'm not obese, but it's enough to be seen. and i hate it. and i hate myself for it. and i don't know what to do. nothing i try seems to work. every time i look in the mirror i feel disgusted. i'm not pretty even outside of that, i know because i used to be thin and i wasn't pretty then. maybe i was too thin though, that was back when i never wanted to eat at all. but even so. i don't think i've ever looked at myself and thought i was pretty. maybe 'decent' at times, in really good photos, but never any better than that.

it makes me feel hopeless. especially regarding potential relationships. at least i'm not into men, i know how they get about womens' appearances, but sometimes i don't think any woman would want me either. i have issues even beyond what i've said here and it all just crushes me. why did i have to be born with such a fucked up body and a fucked up brain?

Cut gluten from your diets, gluten sensitivity and celiac disease are being activated by covid and the vaccine. One of my symptoms before diagnosis was thinning hair and losing huge amounts. Be wary of cross contamination cause depending on your sensitivity levels even the tiniest bit of cross contamination can fuck you over.

I started seeing differences immediately upon going gluten free and my hair stopped falling out within a couple weeks. Took longer for my hair to be full again. But if I get hit with cross contaminated food I will lose a decent amount of hair in the shower in addition to many other symptoms.

If you’re prone to celiac you also may have the genes that make you unable to absorb non methylated versions of b12 and folic acid, so get a b complex with methylated b12/folic acid. Even if you don’t have the gene that makes you unable to absorb the non methylated versions, you’ll still absorb methylated versions more efficiently. Personally I use Thorne brand B-complex #6.

Does anyone else have parents who try to control you over the smallest thing and then lose their shit and want to destroy your life if you try to express that you don't want to do whatever it is they want that is inconsequential, all of the time?

For example, my parents constantly DEMAND constantly when I'm allowed to see my friends, when I'm allowed to stay out, when I "NEED TO" to go back to my MY OWN house after going out with my friends, or that I "NEED TO" go see them by x time and stay away from my own house or friends, etc. If I try to insist that this is rude, they start screaming and acting like I'm out of control for not doing every single thing they want. It's not as if I am putting off an obligation for it, but they still act like I am if I tell them they need to respect my boundaries. I don't tell them what to do, ever.My parents were barely around when I was a child and teen and kicked me out of the house all of the time, abused me, caused constant chaos. I was usually living with my exes or my girlfriends because my parents did not want to be parents. Now suddenly they want to act like they've always been dedicated parents who somehow have the right to control everything I do and when I do it, what friendships I'm allowed to have… It's really getting fucking insane. I'm going to be 30 soon. What the fuck is this.

Maybe they feel panicked like they never had control of you and they’re making up for it. What if you disobeyed them and said you couldn’t come see them at that time/day or ignored their texts/calls about “it’s time to go home now” when you’re out with friends? If they blow up your phone, if you turned it off, how do you think they’d react if you ghosted them like that? Very strange. I agree with anon about cutting them off. Maybe try to make distance and see what they do, it may give you a better answer. But no, my parents aren’t like that anon kek sorry.

This is SO first world but I'm really annoyed my mother won't travel anywhere with me. She's cloying, overbearing and disrespects my boundaries in a way that makes normies say "she's your mother you should be glad she constantly tries to take over your life you ingrate". When I visit family she completely infantilises me and it's so difficult to even respond to it in a mature way, so I try spend literally no time with her.

I'm 30 and have lived an independent life far away from them for a long time, and I think one of the best ways I could reconnect is to travel somewhere with her that we're both unfamiliar with. Go to restaurants, go on walks, she can see me function as an adult and all that. I know it isn't financial issue but it's like she's allergic, she's usually so overbearing but has been unresponsive every time I bring up us going somewhere else together or even her visiting my place. Most recent example is us going to visit family in another country for easter, I suggest we stay a night in the capital instead of heading straight to the middle of nowhere where nothing's going on and she's like hmmmm no.

I wonder how much affection my mother actually has for me outside of her obvious anxiety/codependence issues. I suppose that's the upsetting part.

Yes, I grew up with a mother like this. We barely speak because she'll start trying to boss me around long distance. She used to forbid me to see a doctor about xyz issues because it's bad and she heard from a friend/TV it will give me cancer. One of these was the actual HPV vaccine, so by the time I had control over my own life I was too old to get it.

The only solution is cutting them off. It sucks because you'll be faced with people who come from normal families with nice parents, and you'll feel jealous, but that's the only way to make them stop.

The biggest blackpill is learning that even the nicest, most talented men still end up dating or marrying a woman decades younger than him at least once, no matter the time period, pre-internet, post-internet, pre-television, no matter if his previous girlfriends/wives were closer in age, no matter if his image is 100% non-sexual, family-friendly, nothing. literally ALL of them, oh my fucking god. even the rumored "gay" "um ackshually it's a PR relationship!1" ones you all lied to me i hate you. some of these "gay" cinnamonrolls were even cheaters (with female mistresses not even male). never google nothin again. never ever ever ever

Grab a box with a blankie inside, either bring her inside or at the least, put her in the box with a blankie.

Either lay it on it's side or sit it up, depending on whether or not u can bring her inside. Then contact rescues or allow her to give birth and see if u can get her fixed for free in a bit.

>bitches the entire time about his pants rolling down which he winds up destroying in frustration anyway
>need to stop every 10 paces for him

>later gets mad at me cause he was mad at himself after I told him I was disappointed with how that went

>explodes with rage at me during the night and I wake up to him being angry

>apparently I had a high pitched moaning snore bc I propped myself up with a pillow
>explained to him that it was bc I couldn't breathe thru my nose and to next time just tell me I'm snoring
>he acted as if I was snoring on purpose and stayed salty

>took him to a pier to have lunch and we bring our dogs

>bf acts like I should be perpetually ashamed and embarrassed as if my dog threw up in a 5 star restaurant
>overapologizes to staff who dgaf, same bf who didn't even lift a finger to help me clean

>this causes a fight, ofc I was fine btw

>I drive us around in my nice sports car

>bf acts salty cause I won't let him drive it for liability reasons
>not to mention other tourists on road are being dangerous af
>a few times I encounter a stressful situation through no fault of my own, sometimes I cuss or gesture

Like some of those uwu wholesome uwu streamers and parady twitters you like are the ugliest fucking people just completely void of a human soul lmfao. I cannot imagine where these people think they will be in five years when all they do is consume negative and exploitative content meant to degrade and dehumanize women without consent. Like you think you deserve to be happy or even have the capacity for it when your entire life revolves around hurting others?

I need to keep reminding myself that I only have to quickly finish my part and then I can finally fuck off and leave this mess of a project to itself. What I need to do doesn't keep them from starting the main thing with placeholders, but there's still nothing getting done. The most work happens during meetings or while there is lively discussion, but in recent months it's been completely silent, so no one felt the need or motivation to do anything. No one talks to eachother, nothing gets feedback, most of the time no one even knows what's going on. I understand why everyone wants to leave, I do too now. I keep getting asked to take on more work because the more qualified people just don't want to do it, even though they would get better results than me. And to be honest, if they had asked a few months ago I would've fucking said yes too because I wanted to be included in everything so desperately. They all hang out together like a little clique and only talk among each other and make me feel excluded and like my work is worthless and like I'll never really be taking part in this. Do it yourself then if you don't actually want me to be in the know about anything.

I had this old blindfold laying around and realized it's basically the same thing as those sleeping eyemasks. A proper curtain situation is also important, but if you can't do anything about that I think a sleeping mask is an affordable experiment.

I just randomly remembered something and it makes me feel so uncomfortable I just had to share. When I was 18 I went on a sugar daddy app and was going to go on a date with a man. I told my mom I was going out but not with whom, just friends from school. she asked “who are you going out with, an old man?” in a joking but sincere manner. It scared me a little but I of course denied. Then the day before the date he canceled and said he could never meet someone from my country again. Because of things my mom did in the past, i just had the awful thought that perhaps she orchestrated this. There is a chance she knew all along of my embarrassing registration for a sugar daddy app which I never touched since

I had problems with binge eating before too. Nonna, please, the worst thing you can do right now is being judgemental of yourself. Binge eating is a coping mechanism for some other problems you have and it's not your fault that you cope with them like that. It's looked down upon and is considered gross, but people don't want to think about why people start binging in the first place. At least try to do it yourself, because nobody will do it. Be kinder to yourself and try to get your shit together. It will be difficult, sure. I don't know you personally, but I'm sure your weight is the least of your problems.

Last time it happened during the pandemic I moved back with my parents and spent all day every day getting high as fuck on benzos Luna Slater-style. I stopped and found a job cause I was getting depressed but this time around I don't think it's possible for my mental health to get even worse so I'm just gonna get full-on hooked on benzos and give up on life entirely. This economy legit makes me jealous of some cows, there's literally no reason to work in a professional job if you're gonna live in student digs for the rest of your life no matter how much you earn. I really just wanna give up and go back to getting high all the time, no point doing anything else.

Him being an engineer on its own is a redflag. All engineers I've known have been porn addicted mentally ill men who had commitment issues. They also couldn't get laid in highschool or college so they're very likely to chase after women once they earn good money.
If you want marriage, he isn't the kind of guy. Marriage isn't solely for kids, it's like some sort of support for you as well since him dying or leaving you would leave you with money whilst now he can just fuck off and you wouldn't get anything in return of the ten years he stole from you.

Women in general have a harder time dating or having kids later in life which is why women are the side that'll be compensated financially during divorce. If you don't feel the need, then it's not a necessity, especially if he already pays and you're stable enough on your own.

Eastern is approaching and I'm already fucking done with everything because my mum just told me that I shouldn't be rude to my brother aka not telling him that I do not like it that he shits and pisses all over the toilet seat for example BECAUSE, according to my mum, it could "trigger" him because of his mental problems. So when it happens again, I should tell her so he can explain him not do it, like if he would be damn toddler. She also told me that last time I saw him I was also unnecessary mean to him because I pointed out that he did not wash his hands after taking a shit and just walked out of the bathroom and touched all the food during dinner. When I called him out my mum got mad at me and said I was overreacting. He also tends to not shower himself for days and smells like old sweat and cigarettes, combined with the artificial smell of his energy drinks that he drinks all the damn time. When I still used to live with my brother I was always the one that had to wipe the toilet seat because nobody else bother to clean it up I'm fucking done with his nasty ass. My brother is 26 btw and not autistic or so. Also fuck my mum to give all the excuses for him.

My cousin has texted a group chat we're in with a few friends about "donating to her puppy fund." She seems to have decided to get one with her current bf (of 2 months), despite the fact that she dropped out of college, moved back home, and is now working at starbucks full time.
She was coddled growing up in terms of how money people gave her and responsibilities they took on for her, and now that she's an adult, and people have tried being more real with her about how things work, she still does not comprehend it. Her previous bf from when she was still in college bought her a baby bunny despite the fact that she a) lived in a dorm and b) had no money/job, just the spending money her family would give her. She had a meltdown when she was told she couldn't bring the bunny back home during breaks because her family has two cats (one of whom has killed small vermin) and a dog (which granted, is very sweet and retarded and ignores squirrels, but you never know).

Our family isn't some sort of redneck animal hoarders either, she just has some mental health issues and refuses to be realistic. She doesn't save money, she dropped out of her college (biology) because she got in to a "top ten" fashion school, which turned out to be an online course. Thankfully she was convinced to take a gap year, and from there, moved back home and is going to community college, which is much better for her. She's a bit of a hypochondriac, and her mental health issues exacerbate actual medical issues. She's had several surgeries for very easily preventable things. She refuses to walk and hardly goes outside besides work and dates, which is troubling when she thinks she's going to get a dog. If, somehow, she's able to get her hands on one, and her family actually lets her bring it home, I can guarantee she'll forget about it after a few months, and her parents will take over.

I think what's the most frustrating is that she's literally not someone with serious problems (like there's no serious obstacles in her life), a lot could be solved by some amount of self-introspection. We grew up together, I know her family, our upbringings were very privileged. Obviously that doesn't mean she can't have mental health issues, but the audacity of some of the things she says makes me so angry. Unironically calling our grandmother "abusive" because she's a no-nonsense old lady in the bible belt who told her to stop making a fuss over "the pasta tasting different" (cousin has ARFID). Not even forcing her to eat it, just to stop acting like a petulant child and mushing it and pushing it away and whining in front of guests. When I got in to a private school on a scholarship during middle school, she insisted on being sent to private school. From there, her family wasted thousands to send her to a private college she was obsessed with, only to drop out. She still insists that she's going to be a designer for high fashion brands in paris and italy (her words not mine), while not knowing how to sew. She's great person, but she has no self awareness and any attempts by our family to push back either don't last very long because it's easier to give in, or wind up in her flipping out, like when she was told to start buying her own gas. I snitched to about her plan to bring the bunny home (her mom didn't even know she had gotten one), and I will 100% do the same for the dog if I see signs that she's actually gonna get it. She fundamentally cannot handle that much responsibility and I refuse to let her subject her family, her well-intentioned bf, and an animal to her own retarded whims.

I don’t know why I’m like this but I become so obsessed with people whom I barely know and then my mood is completely dependent on them. I would say I have bpd if it weren’t for my non existent risky behaviour. I know it’s irrational but I can’t help it. It gets even worse when it’s people I get to know because I actually wanna get closer to them but they tend to just be infatuated with me (I promise I’m not a narcissist, I don’t think everyone is obsessed with me) and it’s all superficial so it becomes a matter of time before get bored and drop me for someone better that comes along or they lose interest and suddenly stop giving me all attention gave before. It hurts so much every time. I really don’t know why I can’t find someone to have a genuine connection with, someone who for once just likes and accepts me for who I am as a person. I have tons of issues but I’m really not a terrible person. I always internalise these things and think there must be something inherently wrong with me and that I must be really uninteresting and unlikable for people to be so hot then cold with me. I always compare myself to the other people they end up liking and obsess over it so much. This is why I stayed away from dating for so long and I think it’s best if I go back to that and never get involved with people cause clearly I’m not mentally stable enough for that shit.

Years after graduating, my time at art school leaves me more bitter than anything. It's not the financial aspect that really gets me though. It's that there were so many egotistical and pretentious male boomer professors with extremely dated views. With that there was rampant favoritism and even instances of outright bullying. There were even instances of predatory behavior from the professors towards the student body. All that really obliterated my morale and my self-esteem for a good while. I really can't believe there was a point in my life where I desperately wanted the approval of these wretched people. Furthermore, these experiences have made me grown more cynical about art in general and especially with male artists. I rarely ever actually enjoy looking at art anymore.

The only good things I can really say about this experience are that my skills and work ethic grew tremendously and that I met my best friend there. If I were to go back in time though knowing how it would all turn out? I'm not so sure if I would go through with it.

Why are some people just so fucking awful at getting in touch with others? Why always rely on that others will do it for you and then blame everyone else when you lose friends?

one of my only real hobbies (obscure internet thing, think of it as d&d) causes me such stress. it's art-based and i'm constantly getting messages like

>oooh i love your stuff so much!

>oooooh i'm so flattered to even have a crumb of your attention!!!
>ooooh i always have space for you!

but i never interact with these people outside of the table. even then the interactions are clipped, and i can tell i'm usually more excited about them than my partners.

i kind of want to do a hard reset and just wipe all my "friends" from the hobby and move on to something else, because at this point it makes me miserable to see people i've hung around for years form cliques and friendships while i'm still alone, but i don't even know what i'd do. this thing has given me such joy in the past. but the past few years? kek, they've been awful

doesn't help that there are so many gendies fucking everywhere. so i hate them for being that way but i also hate myself for not being able to connect

I feel you nonnie… that really sucks. It's the worst feeling too, because you know these people won't care if you fell off the face of the Earth despite how much time and care you might have spent in their group. I used to be a big hypeman for other people's ideas, writing, and art. I got burnt out because of this same reason - it really hurt.

Honestly, why not just shop around for similar hobbies or a different group? Or even just taking a break. I finally left, and while I haven't found a good replacement, at least it doesn't feel like picrel anymore.

I keep on watching how all of my hopes and dreams for the future that were so close to fruition are now shattering in slowmo, because of one retarded ass moid who is in charge of the country me and my closest people were born in, when we literally never voted for him. Like why the fuck would you want to have more land when the country is already the biggest in the world and is mostly a fucking shithole because you and your besties decided that your own people are trash, don't deserve to live good and you can steal all of the fucking money possible. What is the point of "protecting our country", when no one is fucking attacking us!! It's only you who is doing this shit to other people. Oh, these pesky Ukrainians that just decided to go their own way and not be your colony, why not just destroy them cos' we're soo stronkkk and best army in the world. SURE. Literal retards who should be in jail long time ago. Now you suck ass in Ukraine, you keep on borrow more and more time, when you already lived too long for a sack of shit like you. If you wanted NATO to stay away… You are the most embarassing failure of a person, since now you are the reason for NATO to exist. And of course, our main issue is these LGB, TQ, feminism, video games, anime, пендосы, opposition… children are watching all this and become nazi gays and commit suicide!! Of course our problem is not old ass moids and their asslickers trying to push for more restrictions and more escalation, right?
I hate this shit, I hate that now everyone blames people like me, who can't do shit to fix the situation. I was like a half year old when he became the president, of course it's now my fault that he's still a president. It's unbearble, there's no hope for the future, what's the fucking reason to continue pushing through? I've been depressed for a very long time, but I had hopes for the best, that good times will come and we will be able to live like normal people do and feel happiness. Nope. Fuck that. I keep on thinking about it and whining to everyone who can listen, but nothing is going to change. I don't know why I even decided to continue living. There's no point. Even if it ends like tomorrow, nothing will be the same for a very long time. Insane shit. Nonnies, when you'll respawn, never pick the мухосранск point, worst mistake of my life.

My autistic moid friend has become such a fucking creep in the while I've known him.

Apparently he was a sex pest too when he was a teenager, and he told me he thinks about me when he jerks off (wtf..). At this point I want him to fuck off but we live close and are bound to run into each other, also fucking tard rage. I wish we never met. He used to be nice, now he's a borderline sex pest.

I feel so drowsy since I didn't sleep well last night, but I'll just have to deal with it for rest of the day I guess. Because I just can't sleep right now, otherwise I'll wake up around the night-time and that'll mess up my routine more. I also can't manage to take a fucking nap, I either end up sleeping for a lot longer than I intended to (even with an alarm, I'm a heavy sleeper) or rather than helping me out with sleepiness, it feels even worse whenever I wake up from a nap. Fucking this shit. I wish sleeping wasn't necessary.

Seriously though our next generation of cloners might be screwed over for old sick people.


But if nobody can care about the children then was it because "her husband" had the right to give presents.

i hope now my roommate finally got the hint and realizes she can't force me to be friends with her. i am my own person and i am tired of dealing with pushy, aggressive, controlling people who refuse to take a hint and go find someone who cares because i don't. even after repeatedly telling her to stop bothering me, even after several meetings with the university and warnings from them to also stop bothering me, she kept doing it anyway. i know she was angry but i don't give a fuck anymore cause the bitch is nuts and again, i am my own fucking person. i am not going to be forced to be friends with someone who is clearly mentally unstable and gets triggered over every little thing i do. getting mad because i am not talking to her but am on the phone with a counselor or my mother. getting mad because i use the bathroom after her even though my bladder is literally screaming. the last straw for me was the latest bathroom episode and what i assume triggered it is is peak mental illness. it's my job to communicate and send emails to everyone in the dorm since i was hired as a rep. and for some fucked up reason she takes an email i sent encouraging people to get out and explore the city as though i was directly communicating with her and tries to set up this whole drama to reeeeeee about going to disneyland. i wish i could a-log but i don't want to get banned so all i can say is how much i hate her and how stupid i think she is, because she is an idiot. like grade a, top sirloin retarded as fuck. of course it doesn't hit her until i have to block her ass and tell her that we aren't going to be living together forever, so why do you keep terrorizing me?

I had two "best girl friends" since high school, with the first one I genuinely loved talking about anime and nerdy stuff, we had very similar interests, but then she became a tumblr TRA and didn't like I disagreed with her so we split ways. The second friend was an older girl (late twenties, when I say older woman it sounds way out of my age group) but she was fine with talking shit about some things I liked while she was very sensitive about the things she liked, so after being quiet about it for months, I just went my own way.

I miss having a nerdy friend into anime with who I can talk about my favorite boys and plots that tug on the heartstrings, but going into fandom spaces nowadays they are full of politics and cancelling people over different takes (omg you ship A and B? C is his canon ship!!!!)

Please stop believing anything men say. Rule number one in life, men project onto women. Secondly a lot of men like to waste their time, resources, and efforts into fooling a woman because he likes the gratification of you thinking he cares. These men are too common and they don't even want love, but use love to manipulate a woman. They like the idea they are above somebody and that they get pussy. I don't even think a lot of men want love at all to begin with. Women should not think they are monsters that have never felt real love or that they're broken clocks needing a fix, they flat out tell you who they are.

I'm not sure either but he insists there is a difference between "nigga" and "nigger." I once pointed out how some black people wouldn't appreciate him using either of those words and he told me then they must be ignorant. Like wtf? Do you care about their feelings or not?
Even the most touchy person would also realize there's a difference between saying something out of nowhere and repeating a phrase someone said to make a point.
Maybe he just didn't want to hear how "nigga" sounds pretty much the same thing to others? Who knows.

He didn't leave to cool off or because he doesn't want to be around you right now - he is ignoring you to punish you. He will get mad if you leave too because it means that his punishment isn't working. He wants you to pay more more attention and beg forgiveness. People like this can't be placated.

But I was feeling burnt out at that time, from the entire process and keeping up with coursework so I didn't really feel energetic enough that I gave out a stellar interview. Now that I'm feeling better I'm upset at myself that I didn't give out my best.

Yep and that's exactly what he did to me.

I quietly moved past him as he sat on the couch watching his phone. I loaded the dogs into the car and that's when he started shit.
I told him he could go with us to the dog park, although earlier he bemoaned me for wanting to go on hikes and the dog park.
He was still stuck on me calling him an idiot and whined about how I would have left had he not confronted me.
Basically I told him yes and yes. I wasn't sorry he got called an idiot because he is acting like one, and yeah had he not said anything to me I was going to go alone because he was the one who left me alone. I was angry he called me a racist, but then he tried to play like he hadn't called me one and that I was self-telling. Lmao whatever, sure dude.
He got his dog from my car and threatened to leave me if I didn't resolve this. Oh well. I left anyway.
He called his momma. I'd be shocked if anything will happen considering how good he has it at my place. His mother will probably say whatever to placate him because she doesn't want her shitball son back at her place.

He actually ordered me designer sneakers because I did all the house chores by myself yesterday, and I'm sure as punishment he will rescind that too.

Being vulnerable doesn’t mean you deserve to be taken advantage of, but if you keep attracting shitty scrotes it is a sign that you should work on your self-esteem more. Find things to like about yourself, find new hobbies/interests, and find new friends (preferably female ones bc male friends are rarely genuine or reliable). Men’s disgusting behavior isn’t your fault, but there are things you can do to make yourself less susceptible to it.

my husband and i work at the same place and we have this coworker that is weird as fuck and makes everyone who is in a committed relationship uncomfortable
>went up to our male coworker (who has a gf) and started talking about how much she likes sex randomly
>constantly claims every guy is flirting with her and it annoys her but then she invites them over
>guy #1 sent her creepy texts and she told everyone then turned around and invited him over to her place
>guy #2 she invited him in her car to smoke together then acts shocked when he made a move
>had construction workers around to fix something and flirted with them then came up and ranted about how creepy they are when they asked for her number
>talks shit about every female in the store then ONLY befriends the 1 woman who is known for being "easy" and cheating on her baby daddy
>high 24/7 im not fucking kidding she spends half her check on weed then complains she has no money for her daughter because of her "stingy" baby daddy who pays child support
>ruined my husband's proposal by coming up to me and telling me when he's going to propose

>whenever we clock in and start setting up for the workday she loudly proclaims "THERES THE COUPLEEEEEE!!"

I had a meltdown this morning because my mom was giving a lamp of mine to one of her friends without telling me or even asking. She does this a lot, as in she'll throw something out out or try to donate stuff because she assumes I don't want it. Sometimes it won't even occur to her that something's mine, even though we're the only two people in the house and she knows it's not hers. Crying over a lamp may seem dumb, but it was from my best friend in high school. We were like sisters, and after a really terrible situation our friendship became unstable until it eventually ended in a pretty messy way. I don't really talk much at all about the situation and have moved on with my life, but my mom knows how upsetting it was (I still can't even say her name).

I asked her why she wouldn't ask me before giving away my stuff to someone else, and she asked why I even cared seeing as I wasn't using it and "it wasn't special." I calmed myself down, and then asked for her full attention and explained that the lamp was important, as it was from my best friend (I haven't even said her name to my mom since 2021). My mom said she knew. I do not understand how she could know and still not think I might find it special? Her argument is that I wasn't using it. I got it in 2019, my room had a completely different layout with no space for it until late 2020. She stuck it in the basement, and I'm a little forgetful. I've had diagnosed ADHD my entire life, and she knows that out of sight = out of mind is very real for me and typically understands, she'll put things she knows are mine right where I'll see it, like if I leave a calculator out she'll put it next to my car keys. Sometimes she'll immediately put something away on autopilot which I completely understand. But still, it's not like I was completely unaware as to the existence of the lamp. If she had asked me last year or the year before I would've been wanted to take it out of storage.

All that aside, she acts as though I'm a hoarder when I'm not, because I hesitate to throw stuff away immediately. I'm very busy with classes and sometimes my room might be messy for a few weeks as well, or I might have random stuff scattered around the house (all things I use for classes btw). My mother is a clean freak, and I'm much the same, except for when we start cleaning stuff out. I still throw out a ton of stuff, but I'm meticulous and will make a bag of things that I'm unsure about, like if something could be fixed or if a friend might want it or if the item actually goes with another part. I'll steadily eliminate things from the temporary bag over the course of a week or two. She instead goes wild throwing everything into the trash or donations. I've had to go through donation bags before and take out items I know she wants/needs that just get caught up in her frenzy. When I was a kid and we were moving, the morning we left our old house she was going through the last small pile of things. She put the dog's food and water bowl frame in the trash bag and I had to wander over, take it out, and pack it in the car. Thankfully I had saved it, because at our first hotel she started getting stressed as she thought she had thrown it out. She does this regularly with things she either doesn't know the use of (technology stuff) or her own clothes because of her autopilot cleaning.

I know she hates clutter, and I know that due to my forgetfulness, there's times where I might leave something out for a week or two. It's just so frustrating to have her put away my things at random times, meaning that best case I'm stuck searching for them, or worst case, I forget about them. In the former scenario, she'll remember it's mine and ask me if I want it before she tries to get rid of it, and the latter scenario, she goes ahead and tries to get rid of it. There's not really a good option (especially as there's times where I have to leave something out in order to remember it for something a few days in the future). I try to bring all my stuff into my room asap, but there've been times where I drop something off, go out, and by the time I come back it's gone, only to reappear several days later when she gets it out of a cabinet and asks me "if I still want it." I do not appreciate being called a hoarder, she knows I have a bit of a complex about my own cleanliness as I'm very organized, have (mild, diagnosed) contamination OCD, and literally stress clean, while at the same time, I used to be very messy during middle/early high school (which I have a lot of shame about), and can let things pile up for a week or two before getting to properly tackling it. Our house isn't messy, my room is cleaner than a lot of people's, even when it's dirty. It literally all depends on if she just gets into an autopilot mood. I make significant effort to automatically clean the kitchen, and put my things in my room. Why can't she just ask before she stashes things away? She once lost a piece an expensive piece of tech my dad left over and need back because he had to return it, all because she packed it away. I got accused of losing it, because "I'm the one who is messy and loses stuff," even though it was entirely her fault for not asking someone about an item she's never seen before and knows isn't hers. That label is also frustrating because I don't lose things, she pretty much hides them. Jesus Christ I feel crazy for writing all this over a lamp

you're not crazy and your mom sounds somewhat rarted. it sucks with ADHD but sounds like you have to make it a priority to put everything important in your room because first and foremost you cannot trust her. it might seem a bit excessive but maybe literally labelling or putting stickers on your things with your initials, so she knows not to touch or to put them in your room would be helpful. is your house super cluttered, poorly organized, or is your mom just obsessed with decluttering? maybe you can try to do like weekly or biweekly declutters together.

if it's a lamp you weren't using and doesn't seem special, i get her being confused. if you don't greatly like or need the lamp, keeping it around just for the sake of a former friend giving it to you might be cumbersome, if you literally didn't even have the room for it until now. you have other ways of remembering the good times no like smaller mementos, no?

if you're messy and have adhd maybe you will benefit from the clutterbug youtube channel. you probably would benefit from reorganizing your stuff with open storage and more visible like the "butterfly" style. Also using big bins for storage (easy to put things away) or having designated places to put your stuff (like a tray) in every room so you can put your stuff there and pick it up later.

My main self-soothing method for my whole life has been imagining/planning my imminent suicide, but in the past few years I've become close with my sister (we hated each other before) and I know that I could never kill myself now because she is so sensitive and I see that it would really destroy her, especially after a number of family tragedies that have affected her very badly. I'm not sure if I have ever been legitimately suicidal but it feels like something important has been taken from me and I genuinely don't know how to cope with my emotions without the "well, I'll kill myself anyway in a few months so it doesn't really matter" mindset. Realistically I know that the likelihood of me actually completing suicide was a lot less than it seemed from how much I thought about it, but I have been having such trouble replacing that coping mechanism with something else. It was just nice to always have that option and now I don't.

I know exactly what you're going through, my mother is the same. The worst part is that you don't have security when it comes to your personal property. That is not only stressful but impacts your entire future life, growing up insecure like that.
It could have gone a few ways with me, I was concerned I would become a hoarder when I moved out to compensate. I did not, in fact I became the opposite, a total minimalist. I guess that was my defence from her throwing away everything I care about - just not caring about anything anymore.
It's not great, but it could have been worse. I love my mom to death, I really don't hold a grudge, I have now lived on my own for much longer than I lived with her.

You’re not crazy for being upset. My mom does these types of things to me too and it’s fucking infuriating. She’s putting her wants/needs above yours, in this case, her desire to get rid of stuff. She decides she doesn’t want certain things around for whatever reason (to me it seems like she purges items to make herself feel better, like to relieve anxiety or other negative feelings) so she makes up an unreasonable excuse in her head as to why it’s okay for her to throw away. You don’t come into this equation. She’s not considering your feelings on the matter at all, which is especially insane considering it’s your property and she doesn’t have any right to take what’s yours and get rid of it without asking. She doesn’t have any empathy at all for you and it’s like you don’t even exist. Anyone would break down if they kept getting treated like their emotions and thoughts don’t exist or aren’t important. Your mom is in the wrong here 100%

Thank you nona, I probably should label some things. Our house is very clean and pretty organized, she just cleans on autopilot, I've literally had her vacuum something up during conversations. She's not a germaphobe or anything, she simply puts things away when it catches her eye.

I've had the space for the lamp for ~3 years. I think I said in my post that I kinda forget about things, especially if they've been tucked away completely out of sight for a while. I'll forget about things even when reminded if they're not immediately topical, like adding a lamp to my room. I actually could use the lamp, but I think you're getting at clinging on to stuff. It's definitely true that I shouldn't insist on holding on to stupid lamp (I do have other, more meaningful mementos), it's more the principle that she would give something of mine away without even asking me, especially knowing who I got it from. It's also frustrating in general, I've had things lost for weeks, and then finally come across them, and she'll be like "oh, that's what you were looking for, yeah I put it there."

I'm very organized and quite clean, I just have a tendency to let things pile up over the week and then address them in one big go. It only takes me about an hour to get through putting away stuff, I actually do the very thing you mentioned in the last part. I have several bags, one for uni, one for a ballet studio where I work, and one for my folk dance costumes. The only reason things accumulate is that I need everything in them on different days throughout the week. The bin/bag/tray method works really well, I highly recommend to anyone who struggles with putting stuff away or forgetting items. I can pretty much grab what I need throughout the week and go

Sorry if I come off defensive, as I kinda said in the post, I was pretty messy when I was 13-15. It's been years since I was like that, but it still feels bad to be called messy, and I don't want people to think I'm some sort of slob. Again, I promise I'm tidy

Yes! Oh my gosh that's exactly it. Dare to leave something out and it's packed away at best, or given away/thrown out at worst.

Luckily, I've never been a hoarder. I do worry that I'm developing emotional problems around losing stuff temporarily. I'll get really distressed once I realize an item isn't where I thought it was, I have to find it immediately and put it away before I can do anything. Especially if I just saw it, I start panicking because of my own complex and the very real fear that my mom got to it and it's now at the bottom of a goodwill bag. I've been late to things and have had times where I'm unable to sleep because I'm so desperate to find something.

Thank you for your words, I really love my mom too and in a way I'm grateful because I've learned well about maintaining my living spaces and letting go of items (just not the lamp though), especially compared to a lot of young people. I was still pretty upset when I vented earlier, it's pretty rare for something special to get caught up. 90% of the time the only items that fall victim are new purchases or transient items that go with me on different days (rip to all my sunscreens she didn't think I was using).

She "convinced" me to at first sell it for $40, then I remember being half asleep and her asking me if we can sell it for $10 and I said "Fine, whatever." I remember the days after that realizing how I got rid of something I used almost daily and my mom tried to make it a game of us being "so fucking poor" it got put onto me. My current life is still affected by my mom and dad crying about how poor we were, despite us not really, they were just financially irresponsible, and how I currently struggle to spend even just a little on myself without freaking out about saving.

I have a strain of hpv. Regardless of healthy and safe sexual practices and frequent testing I am infected. Im trying to tell myself its not that big of a deal, but there is still so much anxiety. Ive been in a relationship for a while and when I found out I communicated immediately with my bf and he was been nothing but reassuring and sweet. 4/5 sexually active people get one of 100 strands out there but fuck. Even condoms dont prevent its transmission. At least I plan on growing old with this man.
Also, fuck my mother for guilting me into not taking guardasil! fuck her for making me feel like a prostitute for wanting a vaccine even before I was even interested in dating. Another one for the long list of grievances I have against her. Fuck her man, proving yet again to permanently fuck my life even after being no contact for so long.
I hate both aspects; the insane abusive mother who manipulated me to not take better preventative measures. And also, the very risk of being intimate with someone; hoping they are being equally honest about their sexual health as you are.

How do you even know you have HPV? In my area they don’t even test for it, even if you ask to be tested for “everything” HPV isn’t gonna be one of them. They only test for it if a Pap smear comes back wonky as far as I’m aware. Did you have an abnormal Pap smear result? How were you diagnosed? When I asked about getting tested for HPV like a decade ago at a gyno she just laughed and said that’s pointless cause it’s 99.99% likely that I already have it if I’m sexually active. If I end up with untreatable cancer I’m just gonna enjoy my life until the pain makes it unbearable and then kms.

ayrt, we’ve been trying for a while and didn’t want to stop when i started my master’s degree. it’s only 10 months of schoolwork. i thought it wouldn’t be too bad, but i was throwing up non stop for the first 4 months and now i’m just exhausted all the time. i’m almost at the finish line though. i have 3 papers left, each around 15-20 pages, they all have different due dates (end of april, may and july). at this point idc what grades i get i just want the degree lol. when i wrote my last 20 page paper i was throwing up all day and i got an A. somehow it’s worse being exhausted though because i sometimes just fall asleep doing research kek

Thank you nona. My country is extremely overpopulated and expensive so unless I win the lottery or have an excuse to move to another country there's no real chance. Sucks but I'll get over it someday. My friends have gone completely ballistic, I don't connect with them and can't connect with other people. They only care about clubbing, I'm not a friend unless I'm singing some reggae song half drunk. Norway seems like an alright place if you live outside Oslo but I don't even know the language.

Went to see the Mario movie with my aunt and my cousing, the movie was fun and my husbando Bowser was adorable. However, the experience was ruined when my aunt started bitching about me having 0 contact with my abusive brother. The thing is, I don't talk to him because he's a moody unpredictable asshole that has made my life hell. He yells and punches walls and acts insane. But my aunt insists on me talking to him because I need to experience what a family is, whatever that entails. I'm tired and I just don't want to keep living near my family anymore

I hate to use this word but this girl I know is the biggest attention seeker I know. This will be a long rant but I'm really done with her.
- She started dating this girl and now everything has to be about them and their love. Everytime something goes wrong she asks me for advice which results in me giving her and/or her girlfriend free therapy for an hour, but when I went to ask her advice about feeling lost in college she only told me to drop out and said it's ok to quit.
- We lived together for a year until I had to kick her out for repeatedly cutting and also attempting suicide resulting in me having to take her to ER every other week.
Now for some petty grating shit:
- Sitting next to her, quickly look at her phone she is listening to anime rap (it was a rap on Sasuke's POV).
- Points and laughs at me, basically. Yelling "WHAT'S THAT ON YOUR EYES? IS IT CRUST?" more than once (we have classes at 6am and I yawn a lot). Pointed at my jeans and made everyone notice there was a stain on them, saying "I really like the pattern on Anon's pants today".
- Keeps yelling irrelevant shit in class to get attention. We had kidney failure class today and she kept yelling "COKE IS MY WATER! IF I DRINK WATER IT WILL POISON ME!" in an attempt to get the professor's attention, who stayed quiet for a few seconds and completely ignored her.
- Trying to study and she kept poking the back of my neck. When I looked back she and her girlfriend would point at each other and giggle. Repeat 2-3 times.
- Finally, today I decided to start ignoring her and she spent the whole class poking my arm and slowly putting her finger on the off button on my laptop pretending like she was going to turn it off. I didn't look at her once even during this stuff, and she kept doing it.
I fucking hate this bitch.

My bird has cancer and the only way I can do anything about it is to get him referred to a specialist vet that I was told would cost me thousands. There is no way I can afford that. I have already spent hundreds of dollars trying to treat her symptoms and it is such a fucking shitty feeling not having enough money to save my bird. The only option I can take from my veterinarian is to basically give my bird palliative care. I wish so badly I could do more for him but I just can't with the cost of living.

What's at the bottom of the abyss? The fact that you spent hours of your life watching kiddy torture porn written by a pedophile. It only seems good because he's set the ultimate bait - the literal unknown. People are so starved for decent media that a narrative with an eldritchian mystery and decent pacing is seen as a masterpiece of storytelling. The reality is that everything that happens is merely a setup to enact the author's various violent fetishes upon a cast of terminally innocent and unbreakable children. They never learn. They never grow. They never mature. They traipse about haphazardly into one abuse after the next. Occasionally a narrator reminds us that the abyss is a spooooky place, as if we forgot inbetween the gargled screams of anything remotely cute and childlike. Once the facade slips it becomes remarkably predictable and stale - despite the otherworldly setting. I'm somewhat ashamed to admit it became a comedy of sorts, predicting which sick fetish would next beset our poor protagonists. Nothing could even surprise me after a point. I started to wish he'd turn them into sentient soup again, that was at least interesting. And it's here that I realized that I had become the meme. I had gazed too long, and Akihito Tsukushi had gazed into me. 4/10 the background art and ost were alright I guess.

I stopped reading the manga (which is even worse than the anime) when it crossed this line, as weird as it sounds it got boring. People weren't exaggerating when they said that it's full of pedo torture porn from the start, that's exactly what it is. Nothing more, nothing less. People keep reading because they want to know what's at the bottom so they push through it and become desensitized, thus it loses the shock value and turns the series into just a fetish show reel. I actually don't understand how it got a big budget adaptation when looking back the plot is just a shoddy glue holding together a bunch of kids being abused in increasingly more surreal and violent ways.

God fucking damnit. In hindsight, I should've waited a bit longer since I still had about two weeks left to open up a case but I didn't know until I fully read the policy guidelines after the fact. Fucking hate retail headaches, especially since I brought the situation on myself instead of being more patient and messaging the seller before jumping to opening up a case. I guess I'll keep this in mind next time but I just hoping I can still get the dress and not be totally fucked over.

I read an r/babybumps post on reddit where a woman was asking if it was alright to smoke weed while pregnant, comments of course told her no but she said it helped her eat and sleep. It actually gave me nightmares, I had a dream last night I smoked a shitton of weed and got too high, and only after being too high I remembered I was pregnant. Woke up in a panic. Told my friend about it and apparently she said that's not unusual, she's in a lot of mom groups and they call themselves "Marijuana mamas". Fucking stoners.

My only adult irl boyfriend was a jerk and not well liked by many, so he was the only experience I consider as a real relationship and it was utter shit.(it ended with him beating me) That was a decade ago, after that I “online dated” some moid for the next decade but he would never budge in trying to spend time with me irl. I fantasized living happily together everyday but all for naught. It kinda upsets me a little because I fantasized such trivial domesticated stuff like grocery shopping or running errands and really romanticized doing that with him for so long and then now starting to fear I might be terminally ill. I wish I would have fantasized and spent all that time on something else instead of wasting my precious time on someone who couldn’t even bother to write me a letter. I’ve mentioned to him I think I might be fatally ill and his response didn’t seem very concerned… which I expect. I know mentioning I have very limited time left still won’t convince him the urgency there is for him to move his ass into gear to spend these next precious moments with me. My life was wasted on someone who didn’t care and I’ve been the fool.

he is an awful, irredeemable person who doesn't give a single shit about you and you need to delete his contact info off everything and never talk to him again. Most normal people wouldn't even act that cold to a fucking stranger who reveals they're terminally ill and you're supposed to be his girlfriend?
>My life was wasted on someone who didn’t care and I’ve been the fool.
You can't blame yourself for expecting basic human decency. you are not alone, many women stay with shit men because they project their humanity onto him, expecting and believing he has something inside his heart. It often takes a big event like this to reveal the illusion. Don't waste another second on him and do something nice for yourself.

If an influencer was caught fucking a 15-year old the teenage girl would be blamed and ostracized for it while the predator walked away scotch free. Like remember when everyone pointed their fingers at Keeks for her boyfriend's death when he literally died running away from cops who were going to arrest him for being a drugged out pedo fucking 12-year olds? And that was a completely normal way of how things just were, it's not like that event was one of its kind.

crossposting from the shay board but i am trying to quit smoking high thc amounts (dabs/concentrates) and i am in a hell of my own making right now. ive been able to go 15-17 hours without smoking at the longest but then i start puking bile and having diarrhea and shaking. copy and pasting cuz sick and lazy: im this anon and im back cuz im in shaynus hell. having diarrhea, i puked bile this morning, and i feel awful. this must be what shayna feels like every day. ive actually smoked myself into a shayblivion. i even took dabs 4-5 times yesterday and still felt sick until late in the evening (last time i smoked was 3 pm and i did the same thing the night before. this morning i have sadly dabbed twice because i couldn't handle the pain and agony i was feeling in my body. i am running low tho so i think i will be able to successfully wean myself down to a point where i can stop and it wont be so bad. but i know smoking is prolonging my pain. i may have CHS and im definitely experiencing cannabis withdrawal syndrome. any nonnas have any any tips for me in this time to help numb the physical pain? should i repost this in /ot/ is there a good thread for this?
TLDR: need help with chs/cannabis withdrawal symptoms any nonnies been thru this?

I just want to remind everyone that the most important thing is to be in good health.
I went out to pick up a package and I saw 1 child bound to a wheelchair , 1 adult with some kind of handicap, bound to a wheelchair and one adult with growth deficiency ( it seemed like a 7 year old, but when he turned he had the face of an adult) .
Acne, hair loss, weight and all these are other problems are superficial issues compared to what some people deal with. Hell, even if you're ugly, at least you can walk, you have both legs, hands, can think, can talk etc
be grateful for every little thing, you really don't know how lucky you are

Cbd anon. No thc. It helps. Lots of water. Avoid stuff hard on your hormones and focus on stuff that balances them. Sit in a warm, not hot shower, no peppermint stick to ginger and such. Peppermint relaxes the band on top of stomach and will probably make the sick feeling worse. Make sure you’re getting enough sleep. Big changes like this stress out your system.

Late response but I am teetering on that category unfortunately. However I do not see others my size, bigger or smaller, as unworthy. Hell I can look at someone bigger wearing a cute outfit confidently and like it perfectly fine. It's something that's 100% internalized which is part of why I know logically my thinking process is stupid. It's just hard to get out of the spiral once you're in it.

Can you take an antihistamine anon? Cold compress, I always used to do chamomile tea bags soaked in ice water when my eyes would swell from pollen season. You can also try natural antihistamines like stinging nettle if your maxed on traditional. Strong black tea and honey to help the airways. If you have too much mucus running down your throat gargle warm salt water till you gag, it will down the mucus and let it come up to free your throat so the honey can soothe it, and the caffeine in the tea will help open the air way a little. Avoid bananas they increase mucus. Feel better ♥

If pseudoephedrine is legal where you live go get some. If ephedrine is legal even BETTER get some of that. Don’t bother if the only thing legal where you live is phenylephrine - it’s been proven to be entirely ineffective at doing anything at all when taken by mouth, it literally has to be given via IV for it to do anything.

And regardless of whether you can get pseudo/ephedrine or not, what the other nonna who replied to you said still applies! Cause she gave you good advice (idk about the banana thing tho, I’d have to look into that personally but everything else is solid)

i used to be a hardcore shipper until a few years ago and i always defended fujos because god forbid women do anything but GOD fujos are annoying. it's come to the point that i see anything ship related and find it cringe. even worse when you try and browse normal threads in m and suddenly fujos are smearing their disgusting rape kink all over the thread.

I have always been a fujo and fujo defender because lots of the backlash against fujos is uncalled for but at the same time I feel like fujos have a tendency to victimise themselves. Like when they talk about how they aren't welcome in ANY fandom spaces that is obviously not true. Slash ships are popular in most fandoms as long as you don't call yourself a fujo you can get away with fujo behavior

yeah i never had any issues fitting in in fandom spaces because i wasn't a retard and knew that my gay ships would never be canon and that's what made writing fic or drawing fanart fun. i feel like many fujos are the kind of girls who also claim that they are sooo not like the other girls and that they got bullied by girls in high school and that's why all women are evil and men are good ackshooally.

I've been homeless and I come from an abusive family. I have no support system or friends. My entire life people have treated me like shit even when I wasn't homeless. I don't think I will get employed ever again. I've been suicidal since I was 12. I have 14 suicide attempts. I've never really had friends or anything in my life. Any support system. No matter where I go people treat me like shit, don't listen to my issues, give me pointless advice, or simply I being approached by people that want something out of me. Men that want me to be their girlfriend, people that want to.steal my ideas, people that just want to argue with me and give no fucks about the fact that I've been trying to kill myself since I was 12.

people are very fake and unconditional love is super duper rare. Almost every relationship is transactional.

You being so vulnerable and having to grow and mature so fast through life's difficulties made you hard to "digest" and people could not tolerate that. Of course this can trigger other's difficulties, but people will very often drop you if you're not within easy reach/easy to them.

It also seems like people don't realize that if you've had faced rejection from other from a young age, of course you're going to have behavioral quirks or things that may seem "off".

I'm not trying to make you more desperate btw, I've just had it with how fake people are and I resonated in my own way with what you said.

>>1542189

It feels like if you're not performing your gender, the more you're seen as mature-looking and it may put off others.

They really do expect us to dress and act like we're 15 until we hit like 28 and then we've expired and are spoiled goods and we should immediately switch to granny attire lol

I understand that this post was made because you feel ugly, but from my experience, people tend to behave this way to women who are not gender performing as they should. They will immediately bring you down if you're not a caricature for the male gaze. I wish you had better self view, but I'm glad you're you.

Thanks. That's actually very empathetic. It genuinely gave me a sense of reassurance to have someone actually understand my situation instead of some fake "it will get better" or "I'm so sorry". Those types of answers or reactions annoy me simply because they are entirely useless and when I tell those people to fuck off. They act like I'm evil and unempathetic. Simply, that kind of advice does not work and it is self centered on the part of the person that is saying it.

Your reply is actually very understanding and empathic. I think most people do not understand what empathy is. It isn't telling someone "I'm sorry" "It will get better". It's much more than that.

I went through a lot of hassle to buy my crush a present, I went to a another town before work, then I missed a bus which wasn't my fault and had to take another one or otherwise I would be late to work but it stopped in a totally different part of my hometown and I had to walk for like 40 minutes to get to my house, and then take my stuff and go to work. Kek I finally gave it to him and he said thanks but like I didn't see any emotion on his face and then he said he's tired after work and he can't think straigh and that he will message me later or something and he walked away. I felt brushed off. Now I regret giving it to him, we're not even a couple and it's not his birthday or anything, I just wanted to do something nice for him but it really seemed like he didn't even want to talk to me, even though before it felt like he was really into me.

Someone I know just died very suddenly, and the obituary isn't online yet. It's only been a day and there are already multiple really fucking weird AI-generated "obituaries" about her, I'm guessing they get triggered by a lot of people googling her name + location + "obituary" since they want to find out what happened? It's so fucking offensive because the real obituary isn't up and won't be for a longer time than usual due to circumstances, so everyone googling is going to be reading these retarded broken english and untrue shit. And this must happen all the time since if a young person dies in a tragic way everyone does google it to find out what happened.

Of course there are retards in Russia but not all of them, and telling me I'm fucking supporting any of this? And then she said I was black and white thinking 'like always'.

Sorry that wasn't clear, I meant "what happened" in a more general sense as in if the person is actually dead and if it was a suicide, an accident, an illness. In my country the obit doesn't say what specifically happened but they normally say where the person died, could say if it was sudden or peaceful, if there was a long illness, etc. If you suspect suicide or something like that then you can normally get a confirmation from the obit ("x passed away unexpectedly at home").

There’s this girl I met a few times in uni when I was hanging out with my friend who’s friends with her and I didn’t care about her then at all but I went out with that friend again one time and we ended up seeing her there too and she came over and hung out with us for a bit. During this brief interaction she gave off this super confident charming vibe and kept staring at me while smiling and I really started to fold. From my impression and from what I hear about her she’s really a fuckgirl who discards girls quickly but I’m so mentally ill that I can’t stop being curious about her. The problem is that I’m new to all of this and don’t have any dating experience so someone like her should really not be my target rn and second of all I really don’t know how to get close to her since she’s just casual friends with my friend and I don’t want that friend to know about any of this so I can’t even ask her to help. Ever since that day i to find her in uni but I barely do and when I do it’s just me being awkward and avoiding eye contact cause I’m nervous. I hate this so much I wish she had never given me that tiny bit of attention and messed with my head like that.

AYRT and I'm a bit late, but, sure, maybe I don't understand the politics. But what negotiations are there to discuss with this bunch of retards that are ruling Russia rn? Give away the whole ukraine like some of especially loud ones want? Honestly, Ukraine should just have all of their borders the same as pre-2014 and just have their own leaders that they'll choose themselves and idk if Zelensky is a puppet leader or not, but before him there were russian puppets leaders, which is not that much better. I only heard about bio labs from russian propaganda shows, so i really don't trust any of that since they only speak in a language of lies. I really don't want any negotiations with these people, i want putin, united russia, duma and the whole current regime gone. Hate to use this word, but they are faschist as fuck, bunch of old people, their nepobabies and asslickers who decide what other right to take away from people, what else to steal to buy themselves a new huge ass house in some eu country while pensioners get less than 10k rubles a month since "oh, there is some cheap pasta, that enough". I hate that to divert attention from actual shit happening in the country, they focus their hate on lgb people. Hate that they take children away from people who are not agreeing with the regime. I hate that people can't say anything or even fucking like a comment with an opinion that is differing from the "correct" by government's standarts. I don't like USA much but what USA instigates there that makes taking a piece of another country (Crimea) and, later, invading and trying to take more land okay? Especially when living in your own country sucks and has lots of shit that needs to be worked on. Russia is not just wants USA to fuck off. They want to be this another important country in the world, just like USA or China, since putin has some small dick complex and being irrelevant like that is not enough. But they can't do it any other way, they don't gave enough shit to produce something important without stealing shit, they can't help other countries to be noticed, they just can't do fucking nothing else to actually mean something, but they miss USSR times when everybody was oh so afraid of us. So the only fucking thing they can do is scare other countries, scare their own people, threaten everybody just so other countries would fucking give a shit and give them attention just like they think they deserve. Because being just a big country is not enough anymore, now the quality of living is a priority, which they just don't want to work on. Sorry, went on a whole another unhinged tirade here. But i really don't see any point to agree to any of their demands and let them continue acting this way, they won't be satisfied with anything, not after a whole year of this war. And it will only give them more power to do this shit again if someone doesn't do what they want.

sure nonna,I'll list some of my interactions with these guys, note that I've never slept with any of them (which made them very sour kek)
the age of everyone was 26-29ish, I haven't greentext storytime'd in a while so excuse my retarded way of telling things
case #1
>liked me as soon as I joined the company
>shy introvert, asshole (as I would later find out)
>mutual friend hooked us up, sort of
>go on a few dates, we actually have quite some stuff in common, especially niche hobbies and shit
>side note:I was depressive at the time and I'm not really the type of woman to chase men
>dude actually wants me to cut my nails and not wear short skirts
>wot.jpg , lolno
>he stops talking to me all of a sudden and acts like a salty bitch
>I don't know wtf is going on and I panic a bit and get saddened by this
>break down and cry when he accepts to talk to me at one point
>he labels me emotionally unstable
>doesn't want to admit his judgement is wrong
>later hooks up with the most hypocrite girl in the team and throws me some arrogant stares as if he's some kind of alpha when in reality he has a smol dick ( I know because he told me this and grabbed my hand and put it there. ew)
>I,being emotional back then,cry again at one point
>nonna gets her shit together later
>realized she dodged on hell of a bullet
>common friend later tells me how the faggot bragged that he thought I might kill myself (lmao) bcz of his rejection and that he could've pumped and dumped me
>mega lol,as if he could, he was virgin (not saying it as a mean thing, but he had some retarded expectations and his sex brag was retarded)
>he also says he likes one type of girl and hooks up with the COMPLETE OPPOSITE, the most vanilla boring manipulative bitch you can imagine
>to this day laugh every single time i remember or when i see him and his gf on the street
lesson learned, bullet dodged
case #2
>after #1
>meets me during some event and likes me
>I know he likes me
>opposite of #1 : extrovert, large social group etc
>drags me in his group to various activities
>I have 0 feelings but since I'm an introvert and I was adopted by an extrovert I figure I might as well play along
>things are fun for a while
>red flags start showing during the nights out with his other guy friends and how they treat him like the leader of the pack
>everything he says is law
>at one point accuses me of doing something I didn't
>other guys don't say a word although they saw everything and what he said LITERALLY did not happen
>he tells me to "get up and leave the table"
>lol wtf,I take my purse and leave, go home and enjoy my videogames and animu
>the rage dies down and I am invited back into the group again
>I'm just gonna fast forward here because a lot of shit happens, but I basically made it clear before that I am not interested romantically in him, everything culminates when all of a sudden I am not being invited to the gatherings and nights out anymore, when if some of the girls in the group (there were 2) ask about me, it's crickets
>later find out from a former girl in the group and love interest of said alpha male that this happened to her too, she was kicked out when she wasn't of interest/didn't give in to their advances
>nonna ends up realizing all those wasted nights out could have been spent doing things I actually liked
>lessons learned: playing an extrovert when you're an introvert is so fucking tiring, I've since learned to say a big fat NO and do the shit I like
In both cases I acted very nice, shy and sometimes sad (because of depression). Apparently you ARE NOT ALLOWED to be sad because then you are eMmOtiOnaLlY uNsTaBlE and something is definitely wrong with you!
Case #3 , during case #2
>friend of the alpha male
>likes me but is afraid to tell me because alpha male has his eyes on me
>dude is actually attractive and nice, shame he lets that alpha wannabe faggot walk all over him
>I'm nice to him, he gives me hugs sometimes , I hug back
> this displeases the alpha (kek)
>he always pics on this guy and makes fun of him for liking me in their meetings ( I find out via someone else)
>even if he still liked me after I was kicked out he was afraid and did not talk to me because of alpha faggot
Case #4 is a copy-paste of #3, except I actually liked the guy but he always chose the alpha faggot and the group instead of me
If you're a woman in engineering and you're somewhat good looking you are fucked
>talk to guys
>you're a slut
>don't talk to guys
>you're a bitch
my best guy friend said the same thing when I told him these stories, there was no win for me in these situations
There are some other cases too, those are the most notable tho
I was just being nice because this is how I was, I have since then learned that it's good to be a bitch sometimes and to say NO.
On the positive side, there were some really good and level-headed male engineers I interacted with, but all of them were married
then the pandemic came, I kinda miss the work shenanigans and retarded drama but everyone is prolly married by now except me lol
I hope this entertained you at least a bit, I surely was amused when remembering this.

I feel like IBs have gotten weirder over time. For example an odd trend I've noticed exploding in recent years is that a nonny will say something, and someone will relate that person to a super specific group or person, even if what they said has nothing to do with it nor is the common behavior among that group, almost as if the comparison solely was made because someone said something cringe.
Also, throw in how some groups are supposedly super annoying…except, you'll see people whining about them and bringing them up in super random situations and exhibiting the obsessive behavior far more than you'll actually see the group in question being annoying. Are people just uncomfortable with insulting people at face value now? Is it that IBs have become more algorithmically minded than truly anonymous? I'm a retard so I wouldn't know, but it's really off-putting.

I feel even worse now. My family was sick with covid and recovered, and since I was always staying away from them I managed to avoid it somehow and I keep getting negative results for covid so I'll go to a doctor and see what meds I should take. But my family is so nasty I wouldn't be surprised if I caught something from them anyway. My father showers one a week, and I was going to shower this evening. I saw that he took the clean towel I was going to use after my shower, used some product or medication for his disgusting feet, didn't wash his hands afterwards and used the towel to dry himself off. He then put the towel back as if nothing happened and my entire family was yelling at me for being disgusted by this. He threatened to punch me even though I'm already sick and put the dirty towel in the closet with all the clean towels and bed sheets. No wonder I have no many fucking skin problems and get sick all the time with apes like this. They're the same retards who think an entire family drinking from the same cup of water is fine and harmless because "we have the same genes so you can't catch the flu if I have it!"
