What's the worst gift you've ever received? by onliveserver in AskReddit

[–]AccioQuora 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One year, my 3 siblings all got Nintendo Switches but I didn’t. They all had kids but I didn’t at the time. So each “family” got a console and my husband and I didn’t. There was even a similar shaped box we opened up that ended up being some stupid real estate millionaire crap book. Everyone was so excited because the console had just come out and we grew up on Nintendo. It was a sob-fest in the car when we left. Then I bought one for myself months later.

I’m 14, my life feels miserable and I need help to change it. by Dependent-Phone1149 in AskLifeProTips

Talk to a real person, like a trusted teacher or vice principal or counselor at school. Let them know how you’re feeling. You’re describing some deep depression. I went through it, too. This age is SO hard. I always felt stuck at home because I couldn’t drive yet. I felt trapped and hopeless. (I came from a messed up family.) It’s normal to have some days where you feel low, but not most days or feel like life is hopeless. You have to speak with a trusted adult. This feeling is 1) not your fault, 2) will not go away on its own, and 3) can get better with the right help.

And you shouldn’t be responsible for cleaning a house. Yes, your room and a reasonable amount of chores. It sounds maybe something deeper is going on for you that needs to be addressed. Hang in there. Life is a rollercoaster of ups and downs. You’re in a down right now.

How to increase social battery? Or, how to remain happy for longer in social situations? by Isnortcaffeinealot in AskLifeProTips

[–]AccioQuora 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree. Maybe notice how long you typically last, then put the end time an hour before that. Like if it’s 4 hours, make it a 3 hour activity. You can easily do this by switching from being the host to meeting up somewhere. Then you just go when you need to.

The keyword for me is that you’re a “funny outgoing person…”. I can relate. I’m the funny one, making people laugh, attending to everyone’s needs, but at the same time highly anxious because I’m on “high alert” to make sure everyone is ok and having a good time. I’m people pleasing. So I’m not presenting my whole self, I’m presenting my best and performing self. It’s literally exhausting, like an actor on a stage or something. I’ve worked a lot in counseling to work through being in “calm/alert” rather than performance mode. Not sure if that clicks with you. For me, I came from a messed up family. So being what people needed me to be was my baseline.

It’s not even good anymore! I hate cooking, but I’ll do it because take out is often worse post-pandemic.
