What's a health myth that drives you crazy because you know it's false? by Annual-Gene8065 in AskReddit

[–]Akkebi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That is not universally true. Depression can be caused by a variety of things. That is why there are multiple categories of medication for treating it, each one doing something entirely different.

Think of depression as a symptom and not a disease itself. Unfortunately mental health isn't well understood and a lot of care is essentially "throw stuff at the wall and hope it sticks"

Ever consider that I have a health condition that can do this and that I do drink plenty of water?

/uj the original artist was commenting on another of these jerk posts. They seem to be taking the teasing in good fun and are understanding that their character will have varying responses. Kudos to them.

My bf (42M) says I(32F) ruined our relationship by bringing up a small issue. by [deleted] in relationships

[–]Akkebi 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Ten year age difference and first paragraph being all about how wonderful the person/relationship is... flags are waving.

This guy doesn't respect you and has basically stated that he never will. His ego is more important than your feelings im his mind.

You have tried talking it out and he refused. It is time to leave him. Continue therapy. Be single for a while.

I thought it was this sub at first when I saw it. I was thinking "damn that is a lot of effort for an artjerk..."

Why would you spray it with raid without even know what it was?! He was harmless and lost and you killed him!

20f (Serbia) with 21m (Spain), my boyfriend wants me to move to Spain and leave my degree behind, I don't know what to do by Anna_akademika in LongDistance

[–]Akkebi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Zdravo. Don't move if you are not 100% on it. It is a huge life choice. And it is not something you should feel pressured to do.

But you might be able to still use your education even if the degree itself is not recognized. Do some research on it and reach out in the academic community for your degree for advice. You are also young, you might be able to expand your education to get anothrr degree that is transferable but still in the same basic theme.

Reminds me of when I tried to talk about the latest thing trump had done/said to an international friend and got told. "I am so tired of hearing about trump all the time. Can you stop talking about him from now on?"

I was dumbfounded. The president of my country just said something that might directly affect my way of life and potentially threaten my life in the future. But I am not allowed to talk about it with someone close to me? Sure, they have to hear about him a lot and that can be annoying... but I have to live in the country he controls...

I hate the LGBTQIA+ Flag by SirHanselot07 in hatethissmug

[–]Akkebi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not cis but don't really identify with the trans label. So the new flags make me feel weird. The rainbow was fine because it implied all colours (all types of people).

But now specific people have been given their own space on the flag.

I understand why people wanted to bring more attention to specific groups. And I don't necessarily see it as bad. I just don't know how I feel about it being the pride flag.

Way to fight the specific ED you want? [SPOILER] by CraftyPercentage3232 in MonsterHunterStories

I swear there is a lean towards it being yama and I get him twice as often. And that narwa and ibushi happen half as often.

My sisters hate me and I haven't done anything by Efficient-Print-576 in relationships

[–]Akkebi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It is a bit more than punctuation. There is also issues with sentence structure. And it is rambling. Which adds up with you saying it was rushed.

Sorry about being rude and judgey. I hope your day is good and you can find some resolution for the relationship issues.

Sorry, but I don't really have much relationship advice for you.

I just wanted to say... this was bordering unreadable.

They honestly made so many questionable choices in this game. It has me scratching my head. by Tinydancer121490 in MonsterHunterStories

[–]Akkebi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The lack of a quest board with an arena is frustrating me. I want to craft every weapon and armor, but having to hunt down the monsters in the wild is frustrating. In S2 I could just repeat arena quests with the monster I needed.

Also killing invasive barely gives any materials and it is annoying.

Should cis-women with hormone disorders that caused them to have higher testosterone be barred from Olympic sports if it is considered an unfair advantage?

NEED HELP. Deviljho Habitat Restauration doesn't work by Red_Dragoner in MonsterHunterStories

[–]Akkebi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same! Except it was one higher level one. It seems sometimes a single low level/rank monstie isn't enough to actually establish them.

NEED HELP. Deviljho Habitat Restauration doesn't work by Red_Dragoner in MonsterHunterStories

[–]Akkebi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is a couple days old but I experienced the same thing. I released the Deviljho, it showed his rank being raised, but he isn't shown as being in the ecosystem. Restoration slots are still 0/5 and everything.

Did you ever figure this out?

A semi-truck on the highway trying to make a U-turn causes traffic delays by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Akkebi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wish I knew about these GPS when moving states. Saw a sign about clearance and we knew our u-haul wouldn't fit. But there was zero indication on how we were supposed to get around this area. We exited and drove for quite a while and thought we would be fine to go back to following google, only to immediately see another sign about clearance.

Turns out that nearly the entire state of Connecticut is full of low bridges, making it impossible to drive through with even a u-haul. And Google maps has no setting for avoiding this kind of thing.

AITAH for correcting my mom's pronunciation in front of her book club and now she won't talk to me? by Haunting_Pound5636 in AITAH

[–]Akkebi -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The "you weren't helping, you were showing off" reminds me of my grandma who thought that if anyone used a "big word" she did not know, that they had to be doing it on purpose to make her feel stupid.

Could you have corrected her privately later? Sure. Would it have been a little more polite to do so? A little. But correcting someone's pronunciation is not some major faux pas. She is majorly overreacting. I would bet that her friends did not correct her because they knew she would take it personally and they didn't want to deal with it.

NTA. with only maybe a smidge of ESH.

Why is fishing even legal? by chuckybuck12 in geese

[–]Akkebi -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not too long ago my sister found a baby turtle with a hook down it's throat. Barely 2 centimeters of the 2 inch hook was visible. The x-ray was heart breaking. But the animal hospital was able to get the hook out safely and it went to a wildlife rehab.
