When you sabotage a potentially perfect day by pretending to be sick just because of a chance that the other people will cancel and that would hurt too much.

I hate the world we live in. I don’t understand the need for such violence. It never ends. There’s never a pause to just breathe. There was so much I disagreed with him on but I want to take a moment to just log some of my favorite quotes from him. “Education should focus on teaching...

What would you do with your last 100 days?

Ideation is really bad. So bad that I have set a date. It feels weird to say there’s also a plan because I didn’t exactly plan it right now but I already formulated the how years ago. I just swore I wouldn’t go through with it and kept it as a comforting talisman in the back of my pocket. I...

Oh I’m positive she’s not actually losing weight with it, that was just context for how I got familiar with it.

Has anyone used vibration plates as a like somatic healing thing? My sister got one and is positive it’s helping her lose weight which had my mom buying one. I am working on weight loss in a different way- but when I was doing research it seems like the vibrations can act similarly to somatic...

I guess the biggest fear is rejection. That if I don’t get things perfectly right, everyone will see that and see that I’m truly just a horrible person who has been manipulating them the whole time and then they’ll walk away and I’ll always be alone in every capacity. I know that’s not rational...

It's definitely both. So many past experiences have informed how I go forward, for better or worse, and the lack of control then is definitely something I am trying unconciously to fix. @Sideways those are a lot of great tips, thank you! @arfie thank you for your tips as well. But radical...

Just that question really. How do I ease my anxiety enough to stop trying to control the future and situations?

I know this is bad. I know it’s something completely selfish and f*cked up. I won’t do anything, frankly I don’t have the balls to. But I really, really, really want to hurt myself just bad enough to be in the hospital for a week or two simply for the sympathy of the people around me. Their...

Our public schools have mostly 3 types of classes: mainstream- where the majority of students end up; SPED- where students who have needs that are more significant than a mainstream class can allow go; and AP- usually only once in high school and is for the students who excel beyond what the...

I’ve met someone and he is one of the best humans I’ve ever encountered. He is this incredible person and I just know I’m going to f*ck this up. We’ve been talking about a month and a half or so and we are taking it slow and cautious because of course we’ve both had our share of trauma and...

Thank you all. I’ve taken some time to absorb what y’all have said and evaluate my own things and clearly I still have a lot of work to do in this area. I find it extremely hard to say no if something is within my capabilities (and sometimes even when I’m not as capable as I like to think I am)...

What’s the actual difference? Is there a difference between being selfish and being assertive? How do you say no to things without it being a selfish action on your part?

Fell back asleep and this time an undeniable nightmare. This one was . . . different and I have pain in my whole arm as a constant reminder. Real, physical pain, from the shoulder down. The dream consisted of parents, a couple of children, and the father of the father. I and someone/thing else...

I realize given his resurgence back in my life (though thankfully very minimal) that technically it makes sense that I’m having frequent dreams about my ex. Processing shit and all. But I’d like to stop now. We’ve processed enough. It’s been years. The first dream sucked but in a weepy...

I’ve been watching some tv stuff about psychology and find it interesting how different peoples’ baseline brain world/thoughts go. Apparently some don’t have images/videos and some don’t have any inner thoughts I guess? Mine is just a constant narration of things I have to do next or commentary...

Well I checked my DNA thing I did a while back cause as more people do it, the results change. And this is the newest addition, granted I know 1% means absolutely nothing but I found it ironic given what I was just lamenting about. Content removed for potential copyright infringement. Contact...

Today, or yesterday now I guess, was Holocaust Remembrance Day. I wish I could find more about my ancestry. I have a fair bit of knowledge from some strings but others are such a brick wall (thank you name changes). Both sides come from the Germany/Poland/further Eastern European area and came...

Let’s talk the gym. Or more specifically body changes. I hate it. It’s put me into the worst kind of funk. According to the scale I haven’t lost any pounds. But according to compliments I’ve gotten and the way some clothes are, I’ve at least slimmed down more. I hate the compliments...

There’s a lot of thoughts and feelings happening that I have to try and parse out. Most are stupid or selfish or just nonsensical. But I need to write it all out and dump it out of my head. I don’t even know where to start. I’ve been overwhelmed, a lot lately. A lot of that has to do with my...
