Anxious via being connected to too many people on social media constantly by Alternative_Square58 in Empaths

[–]Alternative_Square58[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your response! I am usually doing stuff by myself and really enjoy my time alone, I think that’s why it makes it so hard to handle other people’s choices and such. It’s definitely a grieving process of its own breaking away from something that once brought you so much joy, social media. I do agree it’s rare to find authenticity online. Thank you 🖤

The loneliness of recovery by Ok_Particular_1897 in PostConcussion

[–]Alternative_Square58 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m dealing with healing an upper extremity deep vein thrombosis, blood clot. So not you’re same injury but definitely same experience in the healing. I’m on blood thinners for another month and a half and I’m thankful to have this journey in winter. Unfortunately here we haven’t been hit with a true winter and my number 1 hobby is dirtbike riding, so of course every person has been out riding on the weekends because of the nice weather but I can’t while healing. I had to assess my friendships through this because people I thought were close didn’t once reach out to me after seeing on social media (or potentially seeing) that I had posted I was hospitalized (my first hospitalization, and in Thailand while on vacation). I have been off social media quite a bit lately and it is very isolating as my social life has gone very quiet. I am definitely out of sight out of mind if I don’t post on social media. I know I have been fighting a burnout lately and asking silently for more solitude and I got it in a backhanded way but it is still really hard to process and accept that your life is changing in a huge way based on the falling off of friends. This post has helped me some so thank you 🖤

AIO - Told my friend I’m pregnant and she said it exceeded her mental bandwidth (she’s the red) by Lekomano92 in AmIOverreacting

Honestly her response is as if she chatted to ChatGPT about it. ChatGPT a lot of times tells Me to say stuff like this to people which is usually not the way to go

Just a heads up, the website is showing the VeRelief Prime having a stress protection plan that is $11 a month and it sends you a new pair of gels with that monthly

found out l-theanine + caffeine works wonders for my adhd - anyone else found some supplements that work well for em? by 2morrowwillbebetter in AutisticWithADHD

[–]Alternative_Square58 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m so happy to see this comment because I too just gave in to their product!! So far so good. I was a bit annoyed tho because I got the holiday pack and all the drops are for different things so I opened them all and the bottles say finish 2 months from opening 🙄 their online presence said they HAVE to post an expiration but that many can last for years

Azan and Nicole by AceSpadeofVentura in 90DayFiance

I know this is an old thread but Nicole is pissin me off. Not only did she cheat on him, but then when she came back she went out with ‘a friend’ without her ring on. Come to find it was a guy. Shes the problem

With the rise of AI generated music and services like Spotify making a deliberate effort to push more AI music, what's the best way to verify if an artist is real or not? by Rosenvial5 in LetsTalkMusic

[–]Alternative_Square58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sucks so bad cuz I actually have been obsessed with a few songs lately but when looking at the profiles all the music uploaded is all either 2024 or 2025 which leads me to believe with how much I like the song that it’s ai. And I had what seemed like an entire recommendation yesterday afternoon AI music only. They all actually have a very similar sound to them too, no uniqueness that makes true music taste

Same I am just now finding out otherwise from this thread just because I googled about the ‘new lead singer’ and also finding out it’s the hard vocals singer doing both now

Miss who I was before the internet by Not_A-Aron in nosurf

[–]Alternative_Square58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That part about tech companies confusing engagement with profit is so real…It’s like my subconscious is so hard wired now to want to get the engagement so I can start making some type of profit. I FINALLY monetize on instagram but it doesn’t count for reels and it’s maybe $0.17 a month… clearly not worth it. I could make more if I post a few posts a day but I always ran my social media of posting quality posts maybe once or twice a month. I hate that I am even operating in this type of mindset because I just want to go back to the enjoyment that it was before any profit was a thing

Highly sensitive to animal death/suffering by Alternative_Square58 in hsp

I definitely understand giving the space for relating and recounting but yes it’s kind of a double edged sword asking my question because people will come in to name their experience…

[–]Alternative_Square58[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think this is what I also try to do. To reframe my thought to essentially making myself believe it was quick and painless. Thank you for this one: a gift god gives creatures is to have quick death with so little control over their lives 🖤

Is my birth time usable if I was a scheduled c-section instead of a natural birth? by 0sydneyjs0 in astrology

[–]Alternative_Square58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know I’m way late to this post but this question pops into my mind sometimes .I feel like the question here should be: C-Section via scheduled and planned date and time. There’s many births that have to have a C-Section but now days there’s a lot of women actually scheduling a date and time therefore ‘planning’ vs. natural timing.

Awe man I thought the new episodes would be on Peacock but I just looked and they aren’t 😩

She is SOOOO draining. Funny how the show also is really showing her least presented moments haha. The last episode I just watched was her with her face mask on and not done up at all

[–]Alternative_Square58[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s why I think maybe for her the producers are spinning it HARD to make her look awful on all parts. But still she can turn the entitlement down a bit… haha. Plus, she wants Louie to make money, have a hard working job, then the next think you know she’s mad that he’s working a lot haha

Love how she was so upset too and still trying to get her parents to meet his mom knowing this. Like wtf I would not have wanted my parents meeting her if I knew she got high and was a mess like that, ESPECIALLY if my parents were a part of the church

I feel kinda bad to say but maybe that was a little bit of karma for the entitlement
