>>2215248I can't say if you're depressed but I'll give my experience with anti-depressants. I take Amitriptyline. It didn't make me better but it evened me out so I could work on myself. I felt really out of it the first couple days. Medication should be a second choice if you can't pull yourself together. I was barely able to leave my home without feeling like I was going to explode. I'm better now, I'm not fully ok, but I take it when I need it and I went on a hike yesterday. That was unthinkable before.
That's my opinion, talk to a doctor and don't trust random poster's opinion on a anonymous Turkish pottery gossip image board.

How important do you think chemistry while chatting is? I've been talking to this guy, and when we are face to face or on the phone I have a great time with him, but texting with him is really… meh. It's like he turns into a millennial while chatting. He uses tons of normie emojis and writes pretty formal sounding walls of texts as if we are writing each other e-mails instead of on Whatsapp kek. It's cute how much effort he's putting into talking to me and I know that what it feels like irl is the most important thing, but this just kind of makes me less excited to chat with him throughout the day. Sometimes all I want is a short, casual conversation about what I ate for breakfast or something, and due to conflicting work schedules we also can't meet up or call every day

>>2214978I know why it's a stupid question, it's more that I want more opinions than just mine and one of my friend's on the matter. A friend of mine (another one) has been fucked over long term by covid for her career, she was jobless for over a year after finishing her internship and graduating from university. Then she found a shitty office job. She quit is as soon as she found something better that pays a lot compared to her degree, skills and experiences, but her employer and client were pretty much treating her like a pariah, in a way that could legally count as harassment based on our country's labor laws. She left but negociated with her employer to be able to earn unemployment benefits she accumulated and have more free time to send applications and do job interviews. It's been over a year since then and she's always the second best if she even gets job interviews because companies want engieneers, which she's absolutely not, so she's still unemployed but I think she's aiming too high and should get a less interesting job for a little while until she gets a better opportunity. Her parents pay for everything but she could be kicked out of her place and not be able to find another apartment if she doesn't have her own income in our city. If she moves anywhere else she won't have any job opportunities and no more interviews at all so that's not an option.
Here's the question: am I right to believe she should just get a shit job like anyone else for a few months just so she could get money and be allowed to get unemployment benefits again after running out of it recently? She always acts like she's so unlucky when I had to work for a shitty call center for nearly a year because I was also screwed by covid, and unlike her it wasn't even my fault and she would have had more opportunities if she didn't repeat a year in university to begin with.

>>2218232Nona, I am in the ana-chan depths right now so maybe I can help with a reminder of what it's like. It's embarrassing the older you get to still struggle with food, it can be so isolating too. Being the person who doesn't participate in social activities or the snappy bitch with ana brain is humiliating and people will avoid you. There's also the depression, if you were fucked up before becoming an ana-chan, I promise it's infinitely worse because now you really don't have the energy. If you want to continue the ana-chan, kiss any hobbies, interests, education or even work you may have a goodbye because you'll turn into a hollowed out husk of a person, your life will revolve around food. I'm the same as you, short and "unfortunately" shaped, despite my BMI being in the 13s I am still unsatisfied with how I look. I understand your frustration with being a healthy weight and looking much higher, it sucks to have that kind of blow to your confidence. It's important for you to remember that you are a living, breathing person, not a doll or mannequin. Your/any woman's wellbeing getting ignored so you/she can look "good" (which is a forever changing standard) is a misogyny psyop. You deserve to be more than your aesthetics, your life has so much more value than bullshit terms like a muffin top. Think of all the things your body can do for you, think of all the ways your brain can work and think of all the memories, skills and personal growth you have waiting ahead for you in your life. Don't throw all of this opportunity away for nothing. ILY nona, I hope this can do something for you and I'll keep you in my thoughts. I hope you can make the right decision for yourself, I know it's not easy, but you've already come this far.

Women are better at playing mind games but are socialized to "be nice" while constantly giving males the benefit of the doubt, even in cases of blatant disrespect. Women come into their power when they realize the vast majority of men are only worthy of being used like tools in a shed, and not of the affection and admiration they crave from us. Its why (actual) "misandrists" don't give enough of a shit to actually hate men, while misogynists hate women. The opposite of love is not hate, its indifference. And it kills scrotes when women are indifferent. That's why they rage bait women who chose to be single and childfree so hard they neglect their pickmes and spawn.

I got a call from an unknown number last night (didn't answer) and a text immediately after saying it was my friend and her husband. That struck me as weird since they both have individual numbers. Why would they share one?? So I called the number back this morning and the guy on the other line asked if I was someone else then said it was a wrong number. I asked my friend if she knew anything about this or if you she recognized the phone number and she said no. We're both kinda freaked out. Am I being scammed? Is she? Should we be alarmed?

No. 2221307
>>2221092Tough to say, but make sure you have a good chore schedule. Do it together or portion out what you do. I found doing chores together with my bestie was pretty good. Kept us accountable (depending on if you have similar work schedules or whatever).
The biggest gripe I had was when she invited people over and eventually, her boyfriend. Just be clear on what protocol you have on guests and how you interact or don't with them.
Also, it might be nice to schedule out things to do with each other like watching tv, eating dinner or whatever. Nice homely bonding experiences.
Communicate when you have a problem like IMMEDIATELY. Don't leave it to fester for days on end/weeks/month. If there's something wrong with your bestie's housing habits/the applicances, tell her straight up and tell her you expect her to also bring shit you do that irritates you. It might feel like shit for a second, but you gotta compromise.

No. 2221452
>>2221440You have to understand that in a lot of cases the BPD woman goes above and beyond when she's in love. This makes the moid feel valued and speshul. They get extremely close, then because she was probably abused emotionally as a child she is ultra sensitive to any perceived shift in emotion, his eventual "settling" emotions mean that to her he is secretly annoyed and hates her, then she splits and realizes he's a lazy piece of shit that doesn't reciprocate the intensity of live she feels so now she hates him, this makes the moid feel abandoned, he might say sorry and give her the validation she wanted, this redeems him in her eyes, then comes the codependent love bombing again, then the cycle repeats. It's an incredibly addictive cycle. This isn't the only kind of bpd relationship cycle, it's not really talked about outside of having children but look up the bpd parent archetypes and the archetypes of the bpd enabler. Uncontrolled bpds tend to pick partners that enable them, "need" them, or they choose partners they idolize, or partners that supply them the "unemotional" dynamic that probably caused them to have bpd in the first place.

No. 2222063
>>2222042sounds dumb kek, periods happen based on cyclical progesterone levels and touching yourself isn't going to influence that. If anything it might worsen things since stress can cause late/heavy/painful periods
The most realistic thing you can do to influence it at this point is to take ibuprofen, which can delay your period and/or make it less heavy since NSAIDs affect your blood. Of course be responsible about it and don't overdose or rely on it regularly as a crutch but for some women it can be a useful tool every once in a while

Whats the fastest way to lose weight? not trying to anachan. Is running two times and week and counting calories enough to lose 10kg by february?
No. 2222664
>>2222658That alone isn't going to be enough unless you're going extreme on both running and the calorie restriction (do not recommend this). Try adding some or all of these:
>Swap out for more nutritious ingredients when cooking. (For example, I love swapping oats/oat flour in place of wheat flour for baking because it's got more protein and makes me feel fuller without eating as much)>Do low-intensity exercises daily>Find more ways to move your body (I sometimes swap out my computer chair for an exercise ball to bounce on. Movement = calories burned)>Go easy on soda/caloric drinks>Stay hydrated (being thirsty can sometimes make you think you're hungry)Keep in mind that muscle is denser than fat, so if you exercise more, the number on the scale might not seem to change much. Measuring your waistline or doing a fat-pinch test is a better way to tell if you've "lost weight". Good luck nonna!

also, you should bring it to the vet soon so it can get its shots/neutered. there is probably a local trap neuter and release program that can provide you with a trap to do so (i wouldnt try to pick her up to put her in a carrier unless you want claw scratches). dont be scared to call, they are usually run by old people that like to help others. good luck nonna!

>>2224520It depends on what your hair is like first, like if it's fine or thick, if it's straight or wavy, etc.. But usually to give volume like this, either put your hair into large rollers before bed and apply hairspray lightly, OR when you wake up in the morning and shower, dry your hair with medium volume with your head upside down. When we dry the hair with heat, we wanna dry the hair the opposite way we want it to fall: i.e., if I want my hair to swing to the right, I'd position the hair dryer so that it blows my hair to the left. If we dry our hair upside down with heat, it makes the root of the hair stand up and gives more volume. If you want more in-depth advice, go to the hair thread on /g/.

This is a very stressful question for me to ask. I'm not disabled, I can walk just fine, but I have a problem in my lower back involving my sacrum that over time has gotten worse. Sometimes I'm in pain, sometimes it's all bearable and I can forget any uncomfortable sensation. But when I travel long distances, like a long car ride, bus ride, airplane ride etc my back hurts so much that it's basically impossible for me to move without having to constantly take a rest from the pain, sitting down for long periods does something to my back. In those moments, I've considered using some type of mobility device, but the thing is, I usually can and should be walking, I try to push myself because the thought of having normal days when I literally feel nothing and can walk like always, and other days when it's so unbearable that I end up crying, makes me feel completely stupid, like some kind of munchie failure.
I've seen anons criticizing munchies for being able to walk sometimes and then using wheelchairs other times. I don't want to be that, I want to walk despite being in deep pain. I don't want to be a munchie. What the hell am I supposed to do?

No. 2228009
>>2227958I'm not sure that's true to begin with. Men are less concerned with, or aware about, jail sentences for specific crimes, it's more what they think they can get away with. Rape can be passed off as consensual sex, turn into a her word against mine thing, it might not even get reported, etc. A dead body is undeniable proof of a crime being committed and a much, much bigger piece of evidence to deal with.
Not to mention most of the time rapists don't even think they're committing rape, they do mental gymnastics to convince themselves it's ok and women want it and as long as it's not literal back alley stranger rape it's fine.
No. 2228017
>>2227958I don't know how to answer the first part of your question. Wish we could get rapists arrested in the first place, but it's already an uphill battle for so many reasons. I'd just like to see the laws enforced to start. But it is really that bad. I experienced rape in high school and it took me 15 years to move past it. That only happened once I was able to stability in my life overall: healthy relationship, secure housing, stable job, good support network, long-term therapy, etc. All this helped me to heal and I'm so happy to no longer be haunted by what that man did to me long ago. But some
victims are never able to move on and continue to live with PTSD years after the rape happened. It's heartbreaking.

>>2227958I’m of the opinion that prison is too cushy, first we need to make prison a punishment again. No more cell phones, no more tvs, instead we go back to good old fashion landlines and hard labor. The prison industry being for profit has to stop and it needs to become an underfunded cesspit that enables the enslavement of antisocial scrotes. As we know men are their best selves when consequences are unpleasant, so consequences need to be traumatic. If they don’t like it they could just not offend? As for whether execution should be on the table and how it encourages rapists to murder their
victims? Easy fix. Any scrote ACCUSED gets the axe, no more he said she said bullshit, no more innocent until proven guilty. If scrotes don’t want to be accused of being rapists they need a female chaperone and a curfew. And if that’s not a solution for them they’re welcome to police each other, go back to dragging out and beating to death rapists/pedos and taking their derangement out on each other rather than women and children, that’s literally the natural order.

What does it mean when people say they'll feel the spicy food later at the toilet? Does it burn your butt like it did in your mouth when you ate it? Even though you don't have tastebuds in your butt? Or does it just mean you'll get diarrhea from eating it?
I have eaten spicy food many times but I've never felt anything out of the ordinary afterwards, yet time and time again I hear people say it like it's a given when eating spicy food.

>>2231078I struggle with maintaining a calorie deficit consistently to lose weight. I should only be eating around 1200 calories a day and I deeply resent that. Not to mention I drink my calories a lot, not alky though. Delicious food that literally brightens my day and puts a smile on my face is abundant and available. It's not that I am eating goyslop and sweets, most of what I eat are nutritious foods which is why I believe I have skirted many health issues in spite of my weight.
I only ever lost weight when I was in college drinking water only, exercising four hours a day, and eating only two of picrel a day. I was dropping a half pound on the scale every other day, I remember how giddy this made me feel. If I cheated, I would purge. Also helped that I hated myself and was broke so I didn't choose/couldn't afford happiness even if I wanted to eat yummy things. I mean, this is back when I thought Applebee's was good dining kek.

Ive calmed down with the binging so all i have to do left is start exercising.

I exercise in waves, I have trauma and bad feelings tied to exercise. I go through cycles where I will go to the gym consistently for a couple months and then 4 or 5 months of not going because some bad bullshit happens to me or whatever. I wish there was a way to trick my brain into seeing it as a reward but alas, I gotta force myself to go or no dice. Not to say I am completely sedentary though, I do enjoy physical hobby activities such as hiking and swimming–it's just hard setting aside dedicated time for those activities now that I am an adult with a management job.
You may be onto something about hormones. My mother forced me on depo provera from 15 years old to 17 years old and I remember a fuck ton of weight gain from it. Also I had the arm implant for several years of my life nonstop and noticed weight loss was difficult during those years when I had it. I started spironolactone for hormonal cystic acne which went away completely (too much androgens?). I also chalk it up to being stressed all the time, hence my brain seeking tasty food for a boost.

>>2231098When I needed to lose weight the only thing that worked for me was fasting. Eating only every other day. I found I wasn't over-eating on the "on" days, either.
It was too many mind games and overwhelming when I tried counting calories or measuring food, just having the super easy set rule of "Don't eat today" made it so simple. (I could still drink 0 calorie stuff.)
Wouldn't recommend this to people with eating disorders I guess, but it's an easy way to cut your calorie intake

>>2231113Nta but it depends, i am prone to binging so something like fasting would just
trigger my binge eating. I know because i used to do alternative day fasting and all it did was make me pig out.

Gimmicks like fasting, keto, diet etc can cause more harm than good.
No. 2231154
>>2231111>>2231113i feel like what you eat matters too as your body processes each food differently ex. 1200 of too much carbs, too little vegetables, protein and additives to food and cooking like corn syrup, sugar, flour, etc. that is found in sauces and seasoning vs mostly amounts of vegetables, protein and carbs with controlled sugar, sauces and seasonings. A lot of people get the misconception that all that food does is put weight in your body, when that's probably the least important thing. the whole point of consuming food is fueling your body so your organs can function even if you are sedentary and maybe even especially if you are sedentary since using your brain for prolonged amount of times also needs nourishment
that's why so many anachans act cowish. Also remember that weight gain can also be a sign of an underlying problem, its like breaking out, its your body signaling that there is something wrong.
>>2231113Were you overweight at those times that you needed to lose weight? I feel like sometimes people have a set weight and it can sit a bit higher than average. Also, how old were you? i find it hard to believe that a let's say a 25 or 30 year old woman should eat the same as she did when she was 15? also i think its normal to weigh a bit more, but that's just kind of a thought i have.
No. 2231225
>>2231078According to BMI I'm "just" overweight now so it's not like I'm obese… but it's largely because I grew up chubby my whole life (family habits got me addicted to sugar) with a super skinny best friend. In our mid 20s it flipped; I finally got control of my weight through cutting out sugar from my diet and exercising regularly, while my best friend gained a ton of weight.
My friend started encouraging me to eat more unhealthy snacks so she wouldn't be the "the fat one" even when time and time again I explained I was trying to not eat such things. That I couldn't eat them because I would end up on a binge. She would look so disappointed and hurt when I said no, always guilt tripping me. So she eventually managed to rope me into eating my "
trigger" foods, which did exactly that -
triggered me into binging and I ended up gaining weight. And I haven't been able to bounce back since. Years of healthy eating went down the drain because she couldn't accept that I was trying to be healthy. We're still friends but I'm still distraught she did that to me. I really hate sugar, but I'm addicted to it and can't go even a day without eating something sugary. It's secretly driving me insane and I don't know what to do. And no one takes sugar addiction seriously, people just don't get why I'm struggling so much.

>>2231976It’s partly to do with changing trends in marketing. Games like the Star Sue ones in your picrel were made because companies in the 2000s were really excited by the marketing potential of web content, particularly flash content which was interactive, new and exciting. That’s why all the big toy brands invested into making their own websites with free games for their products, like everythinggirl.com from Mattel. Probably a lot of kids in the 2000s would first hear about a new toy line through that website. It was the same in Korea hence the abundance of Star Sue games, which would get reuploaded onto US sites.
In the 2010s flash was no longer mainstream, apps were the new big thing because they had the marketing potential of web content, but could also be monetized with freemium bullshit. So web games faded into the background and they got weird. With web games getting less traffic than they used to, the developers would make more shocking games to catch attention, which is where the weird bootleg Elsa dentistry games come in. There were also ugly and weird flash games in the 2000s, but they don’t get remembered so much since they weren’t as popular as the cute ones.
I agree that trends in toy design have gotten a lot uglier. In the 2000s a lot of the designs were based on anime, like Winx, Littlest Petshop, the MLP reboot. I think the anime influence on western toy designs created a nice aesthetic, that was cute but not too cutesy. A lot of toy designs now just seem to throw everything into the mix hoping something will stick, sparkle, rainbows, glitter etc etc. I don’t see a lot of toys that have the personality I remember toys having in the 2000s. The quality is probably also worse. The toy industry isn’t really doing so good since kids prefer video games and YouTube videos to playing with toys. Im sure that plays a part in the ugliness. Of course I am also biased by nostalgia at the same time.

>>2235452Is this an American thing? Black people (or at least Africans) are also shorter. That being said, I think 5’7 is tall-ish for all women, unless you’re like Scandinavian.

>>2235746That's not a stupid question.
If you don't let her watch TV at all hours, tell your husband to stop watching TV and do chores/go to bed/do homework, when she's able to see and hear you telling him that. Any rules you make for her are now rules for the whole family. When she sees that you aren't picking on her she'll be less hostile.
How does your husband deal with this? If he lies back and does fuck all it's no wonder your stepdaughter is mad, the one person who was a constant in her life is ignoring all her needs. If he only sides with you, or if he lets her do anything she likes, she might see you as the bully who made everything worse. It's not going to be a walk in the park either way but you need to talk to your husband and make sure you're both on the same page. Find a compromise, maybe she can watch TV all day on Saturday or her birthday, but on other days she has to do something else. Like the other nonna said, find out what she likes, see if you can bond with her over it. She might be very protective of her interests so that might take some time, but when she opens up to you, talk to her about her interests like you'd talk to an adult, so she feels like you're taking her seriously. Never make light of anything that's bothering her, no matter how retarded it is. I don't know what happened to make her birth family split up but it's possible that she's using the TV as a coping method and when you take that away from her she feels like she has nowhere else to turn. Family therapy would help a lot tbh. And definitely make it clear that you're not trying to replace her mother, that's a big worry for a lot of kids.

Bonding is no issue, we talk, we draw, we go hike together with the cats, I truly do or try my best. Feeding the chickens, cleaning our terrace, she can be such a wonderful kid— until you tangle tv or tablet in front of her for "being good", "ive been good the entire 20 min in the grocery store, (but rode in the cart and said "no, don't! Everytime we try adding shit to the cart and no. No!) so what do i get?" she'll start throwing tantrums, wakes us both up at at 4:30am simply bc she woke up and KNOWS dad might cave.. she's 7 by now I'm just so angry at this point, so are there books bc I might kill my partner at this rate but do want to do okay by this poor kid

>>2235746>>2236205Isn't it a bit convenient for her father that stepmom is the one doing the work, doing research, actively asking for help? Shouldn't he be the one who does that research and then informs you: this is how we're going to do this from now on.
I'll fully admit that I have limited context and insight in your relationship so maybe I'm misinterpreting the situation but you wouldn't be the first woman who assumes responsibility too quickly and easily in a relationship..

>>2235746>>2236205>"[a] rebellious kid that clearly hates my guts"She is only 7 years old, she's too young to "hate." It's cliche to say, but hate is a very strong word. She's too young and immature to really understand what that feeling is, or how to express it. As an adult, it's hard to put ourselves in the minds of children because they're operating at a cognitive level very different from ours. At most, your step-daughter dislikes you, and this is normal for young children when they're introduced to new authority figures, like in mixed-family systems. It's difficult, but try not to attribute adult emotions onto her. She isn't having behavioural issues because she "hates" you; her behavioral issues aren't a reflection of her feelings towards you.
I think the deeper issue in mixed family relationships, especially when young children are introduced to a step-parent, is the issue of distrust. I recall a scene from a television show wherein two characters (a father and a step-mother) discuss the step-daughter. At one point, the step-mother quips something like "You'll always be responsible, you're her father. You can never stop being her father. But at any time, I can stop being her step-mother." What the step-mother is implying here is that she's only a conditional mother - that if she were to divorce the father, the semi-artificial relationship she has with her step-daughter can be severed. It's an interesting scene because I think it really speaks to the internal, maybe subconscious, fear of a young child in this situation. There is a latent fear of abandonment, formed from the initial separation of the parents, or a death, that exists in the step-child. This problem is exacerbated when presented with the step-parent. They don't want to experience abandonment again: they are afraid to experience that pain again - so there exists within them a certain feeling of distrust towards the step-parent ("Will you leave me too? Will you abandon me?") that makes forming a relationship difficult. Relationships are built on trust, so the challenge for the step-parent is to establish a strong sense of trust. Building a loving relationship will natural blossom from this trusting relationship.
>How do I build trust with her?Just like you would with anybody, by being there for her. By creating activities that just the two of you do together, and always at the same times. By taking her out 1-on-1 with you for a mother-daughter day. By introducing her to your family. By including her in your activities or chores or errands. By playing with her and having fun with her. Trust takes a long time to build, especially in mixed family systems for the reasons mentioned earlier. It takes a lot of time, especially when the visitations are less frequent (i.e., bio-mum has her for a week, dad only gets her for weekends), but with dedication and willpower that bond can be created and maintained.
>"until you tangle TV or tablet in front of her"Children between 6-10 should be allowed less than two hours of screen-time per day. If she's getting any more than that, you and her father are doing her a disservice. It's very difficult for parents now to control screen-time, but it's so important. Limiting screen-time and setting healthy limits on tech use is just as important as keeping the cleaning chemicals out of reach, or as keeping the guns locked in the safe. Overuse of screens will do just as much damage to her as poison. Please discuss this with your nigel and create a comprehensive screen-time plan. This looks different for everyone, since not all screens are "equal," e.g., do facetime calls with grandparents count towards screen-time?
>"but [she] rode in the [grocery] cart"7 years old is too old to be riding in grocery carts. It's no good babying a child, or treating them as though they're younger than they are. It stifles their personal development. She is no longer an object in the ways infants are; she is her own person now. She should be going to the grocery store
with you, as an active participant in the activity, not just being dragged along as
part of you. Perhaps this is a microcosm of a deeper issue in the family-unit that needs to be addressed. To go on with the grocery store example, there are lots of ways that she should be included. Before you go shopping, you could show her the weekly flier (if it's electronic, print it out for her) and ask her about what foods she'd like, or ask her to write down her own list of 1-2 items, maybe ask her to check the fridge and make a list herself of all the things that are running out (of course, check some time before you ask her to do it). In the grocery store, she should be walking beside you (holding hands or not, depending on your living area and the safety), and she should be asked to put things in the cart, or even encouraged to pick out something she'd like (i.e., in the cookie aisle, you could ask her to pick out her favourite cookie or a type she'd like to try).

Then throw the hair and moldy food out into the trash bin. Do it on a full moon, as the moon becomes smaller his hair will become smaller with it.

>>2237486You should look at the ugly man psyop thread. You probably can tell when they're attractive but you're confused because media tells you these ugly guys are valuable and handsome. Example, Matthew Mc Conaughey. Shilled as a catch in the 90s. It's confusing and makes you challenge your own judgement because you're told it's the best. You'll know when you find someone attractive. You won't need to question it. It's very rare to see a man who is actually good looking, that is the source of your confusion.
