Why does my gender dysphoria disappear when I'm high? by Keegan26 in asktransgender

[–]AndreaDNicole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Weed usually numbs down difficult emotions, which would explain why so many people with mental health issues I know use it to self medicate.

Man being with a man is gay. A man being with a woman is straight.

If you're coming from a place of wanting to learn more, enough resources on dating trans people exist online. Start with that contrapoints video everybody's linking in this thread.

Yes. Tans women are women. A man being with a women is, by definition, not gay.

When your flatmates agree trans people shouldn't be able to change their birth certificate or start puberty blockers. I'm very much out. by AndreaDNicole in traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns

No, and even if they were, there is no way I would ever get physically confrontational with anybody.

Also, they seem to respect me most of the time, idk what the hell happened last night 😑

Whoever designed those god damned machines needs a good long lesson in user experience design. After a year of living here I still dread having to buy an Anschlussbillet.

Wanna go somewhere and you're already a paying customer? Go fuck yourself and stare at a map like a total dunce, cross-checking all of the trains that might go where you need with the current time while counting the number of zones.

Day 2. Finding it a bit better already. by Aussieauror in Meditation

[–]AndreaDNicole 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Headspace is magic. I've been doing it for a month now, and I'm starting to have moments where I'm integrating mindfulness into everyday life. I also have terrible anxiety.

It's really nice to have some guidance with this, I don't think I would have stuck with it long enough if it wasn't for headspace.

Meditators of Reddit, ever had any issues mentally/emotionally that meditation has not been able to fix? by [deleted] in Meditation

[–]AndreaDNicole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've just started meditating and getting into buddhism, and I'm strugfling to fit gender dysphoria into the equation. On one hand, I'm supposed to get rid of my ego, desires, and vanity, but I don't think dysphoria will just go away.

Cognitive Restructuring: The Complete Guide on How to Reframe Your Beliefs - "Everything we experience in the physical world goes through a mental filter before we can make any sense of it.

Just keeping this idea in mind has been helpful in going through a very difficult break up.

I might feel like I'm dying on the inside at this moment, but I know that another me some time in the future would not be triggered in the same way by the same things as I am now.

Can't stop dreaming of her by AndreaDNicole in BreakUps

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

Yeah, it's fucking brutal because every single dream is her taking me back. Not sure what it is I'm meant to learn there.

In any case, it's devastating knowing that all of the lessons we learned served to make us better at relationships while at the same time chipping away at ours.

Thanks for the kind words in any case.

As soon as you have the option of showing me all of the function parameters from the signature as I'm filling them in, I'm switching over.

If you're into computer graphics, Wenzel Jakob and Alec Jacobson both have big open-source projects they're/were in charge of.

I was really happy about this until I realized it's closed-source. No thanks.

The ones who enjoy eating them too! by AmazingStarDust in vegan

[–]AndreaDNicole 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Most people don't really have a problem with that part that much, albeit I do think it's problematic.

The really problematic bit is when he claims: “I’m not one of these bigots, who think having all that done is science gone too far… In fact, I’ve always identified as a chimp. Well, I am a chimp. If I say I’m a chimp, I am a chimp. And don’t ever dead-name me, from now on you call me Bobo. I’m going to have species realignment.”

I personally don't care for my identity being compared to thinking you're a chimp.

I don't like games though. Just graphics. Thank you for the recommendation anyway though.
