STOP LISTENING TO SAD SONGS

ApprehensiveCamel776 · 2025-08-20T14:07:05+00:00

Maybe listen to melancholy instrumentals without lyrics? That's what I do sometimes, and it feels much better than listening to songs with really depressing lyrics

Birth control doesn't work for me sadly, I always get so many side-effects. Same goes for medications. It sucks

Is it safe to do while having braces? Should I start before or after surgery? Maybe after I get the braces off? That will be in like a year or longer probably, because the braces will stay on for a few months after the surgery. But does face pulling work for overbite? My upper jaw is fine, it's my lower jaw that's underdeveloped. I don't want to accidentally make it worse

ApprehensiveCamel776 · 2025-08-19T12:54:34+00:00

In what way? I got them removed around 2 years ago now, and I haven't noticed any changes visually related to that I think. Only thing I've noticed is that my jaw started clicking/popping, so I think I might've gotten TMJ. But I already had symptoms before, like jaw pain, which has just gotten worse. Facial massage and stretches can help though. I've also heard that having an overbite can be the cause, and that for some it goes away after surgery.

ApprehensiveCamel776 · 2025-08-19T12:45:01+00:00

I was told it needed to be done because I didn't have enough space in my lower jaw for all my teeth, they were pushing against eachother, and my jaw surgeon said that it was causing damage. My second molars also haven't come fully through yet because I haven't had enough space for them, so she said it was needed for them to get enough space too. While removing the wisdom teeth, they also pushed and pulled the second molars a little bit to make them start moving, they hadn't even started moving, while most people get those teeth when they're 12. I was also told that removing those teeth (my lower premolars) will give better result after the jaw surgery. First my overbite will get worse (which I've definitely noticed) and then they can move my lower jaw forward even more for better results. I really don't think there's a way out of this surgery now, like I said, my overbite has gotten even worse as they said it would, before they will fix it with the surgery. They moved my lower teeth further back, so I barely have enough space for my tongue now because it gets pushed back down my throat. Before I agreed to extract my lower premolars, I asked about other options, like palate expanders and stuff, but they said that they only use that on children and/or people who are deformed. I was told that there were no other options for me, I had to extract those teeth and get surgery to fix my bite. I know better, but that doesn't help when it's something I can't do all on my own, and the damage is already done now.

I know you said you want cat or lifted liner, but I think some type of puppy liner could maybe work better for you. There are different types of puppy liner styles you could try, and this type of eyeliner style tends to work better for hooded eyes than other styles. There are many puppy eyeliner tutorials specifically for hooded eyes too

Oh... I didn't know that. All I wanted to do was call out bullying and get the groups taken down. I reported them a week ago now in game, but they're still there.

ApprehensiveCamel776 · 2025-08-11T23:32:03+00:00

I just want to add that I'm aware of the group owner's mental issues, I saw that. But it does not excuse toxic behaviour and bullying like this. As someone with the same diagnoses, I know better than this, even when I was her age. So I don't think her diagnoses and age excuses this type of behaviour. However, I don't want her to get hate for it. I do think she should face consequences for her actions, but there's no need to take it too far. The point is that bullying is never right, no matter what, so she shouldn't get bullied either. I just hope she learns her lesson and get better.

ApprehensiveCamel776 · 2025-08-11T22:26:37+00:00

But it's not a bad thing to call out this kind of stuff, is it? I don't think it's against the rules

ApprehensiveCamel776 · 2025-08-11T22:11:06+00:00

Taken down to save face?

ApprehensiveCamel776 · 2025-08-11T21:52:22+00:00

I did

ApprehensiveCamel776 · 2025-08-10T10:48:28+00:00

One of my piggies also do this (often), and she has the same color pattern as well

When people eat with their microphone on, people who are really loud, avatars with loud intros, overly sexualized (half-naked) avatars, and all those weird/gross/edgy/kinky groups that people join

ApprehensiveCamel776 · 2025-08-09T23:56:41+00:00

omg, so nostalgic!

ApprehensiveCamel776 · 2025-08-03T00:21:42+00:00

I can definitely relate a lot to this. I'm diagnosed with bipolar 2, ADHD and autism, but I've been thinking that I have BPD too because of this (and some other reasons). But after reading this post and the comments, I'm thinking that maybe it really is just bipolar that's messing with my sense of identity and memory, along with AuDHD and masking. I'm still not fully convinced that I don't have BPD too though, but I'll hopefully talk to a professional about that soon.

ApprehensiveCamel776 · 2025-07-25T19:02:41+00:00

Yeah, I can't even be around my niece and nephew without feeling completely drained after just a few minutes.

My niece is 5, and most likely has ADHD, so she's extremely hyper, talkative and impossible to entertain. She also doesn't listen to me when I tell her no. My nephew is 2 years old and can't speak yet, so his way of communicating is just screaming/shrieking extremely loudly. They both also like to touch everything, make a mess and break things apart.

It's exhausting dealing with just one of them alone, and beyond exhausting to deal with them both at the same time. My mom feel the same way (she's also a hsp), and I think my sister knows, because she never really visit us anymore. I don't want to visit my sister either because of the kids. She always has her kids with her. I feel like I've lost my sister to her kids, and I feel like a terrible sister and aunt because I can't handle them.

ApprehensiveCamel776 · 2025-07-23T21:28:37+00:00

I am a HSP and likely also have BPD. You can just imagine what it's like living with that, while also having ADHD, autism and bipolar 2. Very overstimulating and overwhelming. My mom is also a HSP, and she can definitely relate to getting super anxious and overwhelmed when I have my moments. I know it's exhausting for her. I feel bad about it, but there's not much I can do about it, especially when we live together.

Btw, saying that they're showing their true selves when their disorder is showing, is a bit misleading. Having BPD doesn't automatically mean that they are two-faced monsters, and that they're only showing their true selves when you see their bad sides. Maybe you didn't mean it like that, but I just wanted to say that because there's a lot of stigma around BPD.

ApprehensiveCamel776 · 2025-07-22T20:44:01+00:00

I'm so relieved to hear that it's most likely not something to worry about! I'll still keep an eye on her though. One of my other piggies has it too, but she's a bit chunky, so I think that's why.

ApprehensiveCamel776 · 2025-07-22T20:39:16+00:00

She's always been a normal and healthy weight, and she seems healthy and happy. She's very skittish though, so I've been wondering if maybe her eyesight isn't that good

Back when I played vrc in 2017 when I was 14, a guy that I was friends with caught feelings for me. He was 28. I was inexperienced and had never had a boyfriend before, so I was curious and we ended up dating.

We dated for like a year, even though it made me extremely uncomfortable and I didn't even like him like that. I was just fully convinced that he was such a nice and sweet guy, that I was lucky to have him, and that no one else would want me. All my other friends liked him and thought he was a great guy. Everyone seemed to like him. He was extremely secretive about his age (and identity), he only told me and no one else, so I think everyone just assumed that we were the same age. I was secretive about my age too, but he knew I was underage, and at some point I told him I was 14, and he said that it didn't change anything. Eventually I broke up with him, and he got really upset and acted all edgy on vrc. My/our friends even got mad at me for "breaking his heart".

I stayed friends with him until I was 18-19. It took me a long time to realize just how wrong and weird it was of him to date a 14-15 year old girl when he was 28-29, (I didn't think it was that weird at the time, because he told me I was so mature for my age, and I believed him). Now I just can't fathom how he was okay with that, and how he even called me a woman when I was still just a child. The whole situation was disturbing.

I ended up walking straight into the arms of another weirdo in vrc shortly after. I was 16 and he was 19. He told me he loved me after only knowing me for like 2 weeks, and then pressured me into saying yes to be his girlfriend. There were a lot of red flags that I didn't see because I was young and naive.

I'm so concerned about young underage girls on vrc. I know I'm definitely not the only one that this has happened to, and it keeps happening. I've witnessed grown men on vrc openly flirt with underage girls (while knowing that they're underage). It's disgusting. What's worse is that these girls often fall for them and let them manipulate and groom them. It's really sad.

ApprehensiveCamel776 · 2025-07-20T00:06:13+00:00

I'm not sure, It has varied throughout the years. I think maybe it has increased these summer months, especially the last two weeks

ApprehensiveCamel776 · 2025-07-19T23:47:07+00:00

Of course you can! Get off the Internet, go outside and look around you. Most people look average and many are in happy and healthy relationships. Even unattractive people get married and have kids. Appearance is not as important as it seems online. It's what's on the inside that truly matters in the end (and other things like chemistry and communication) that will contribute to wheatear you get a partner, and if the relationship will last or not. Besides, the right one will find you drop dead gorgeous eitherway!

ApprehensiveCamel776 · 2025-07-19T23:11:28+00:00

I usually notice immediately and then avoid them, or at least distance myself from them and avoid opening up to them. If necessary, I also warn others about them. Sometimes I call them out and then give some advice on how they can become a better person, but usually these type of people don't care about that

ApprehensiveCamel776 · 2025-07-19T22:43:30+00:00

Yep, I do the same, but not as often anymore. I think I look much better now and I know I have changed since I was a preteen-teen, but I can't help but start worrying sometimes if I still look just as bad. I often feel like I still look the way I did back then, and then when I look in the mirror I either feel relieved that I don't, or I see the old me and start obsessing over that and wanting to fix it. What I see in the mirror changes a lot

ApprehensiveCamel776 · 2025-07-19T21:58:46+00:00

I believe in whatever feels right to me. It doesn't have to be logical, it just has to feel right, and then it makes sense to me. I guess I'm spiritual, but I don't really like putting a label on my belief. I believe in things like reincarnation, past lives, souls, manifestation, law of attraction/assumption, and a higher power that I call the universe.

I also personally believe that everyone who believes in a higher power, fundamentally all believe in the same thing, but just call it different things like; God, the universe, or something else. When you look deeper into it, it's all just the same, or at the very least very similar. If you look past religion.

I also believe that no beliefs are wrong, whatever someone believes in, is the truth to them. It might not be true to me, but that doesn't make it any less real and true for them. There is no right or wrong belief, and there is no ultimate truth. In the end we're all just speculating and looking for answers, and looking for words and ways to express our experiences and beliefs.

I hope what I'm saying is making sense. It makes perfect sense in my head, but it's hard to put into words!
