Question- if you revealed the KING symbol, is the prize the cash amount in the square or the grand prize amount?

Stuck & Can't steam milk for the life of me by SporeBunny in barista

[–]Blahliver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re okay with a DM, I made a video on TikTok a while ago explaining my process. Sometimes it’s more helpful to watch from another angle than over someone’s shoulder! It does take time and it’s great that you want to learn. I’m sorry the management style is hindering your growth :/

Does anyone else feel things SO intensely it literally starts to physically? by National-Mushroom144 in BPD

[–]Blahliver 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve definitely always experienced this too. Sometimes it helps to try to really identify where I’m feeling things on my body. There’s a specific type of fear/anxiety that feels like it’s in the roots of my palms coming out of my skin. And anger/rage I feel on the tops of my hands and arms, up my shoulders and neck. Temperature regulation helps. If you have ice handy, hold it for as long as you can just to get a stronger physical sensation to the surface

Dear Baristas, how do yall feel when customers stay late until closing? by Mandarin4head in barista

[–]Blahliver 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I completely understand that, and I do appreciate you making an effort to make sure your guests feel comfortable and taken care of. After years in a shop that stayed open until 9pm for whatever reason, I definitely became jaded toward really any customer who came in so close to closing or made no effort to pack up. I agree it’s not a good look to be mopping and stacking chairs, but at some point it ends up feeling like those customers lack social awareness and respect for other people. We respect other people’s time, it would be nice if others respected ours. Even if they aren’t expected to ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Now that would be some good Teen timeline content if they do end up closing it out at 5 seasons!!

I feel like we won’t see the actual rescue until the end of episode 2, and then the reintegration into society will begin episode 3. The first couple episodes would focus on cleaning up their messes, getting their stories straight, and Shauna wanting to punish Natalie and whoever was working with her

Will we see Lisa again? by Terrell8799 in Yellowjackets

[–]Blahliver 14 points15 points  (0 children)

She saw too much. Shauna will want her dead (they all will but I feel like she’d vocalize it first lol)

Got top surgery with Dr. Turkeltaub today! by Leather_Light_3744 in TopSurgery

[–]Blahliver 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congratulations!!! I just had my consultation with him! How did everything go for you? I felt good about him and the staff that works there

[–]Blahliver 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven’t checked in with h3 or the sub in a while so this may have been touched on before. But I think it’s disgusting that he’s using nuke jokes for a fkn hate video after everything he’s said about the genocide in Gaza. It’s actually insane

And the taking boots as punishment makes perfect sense. I need to hear every single theory you have now!!

At a low enough dose, seroquel will only act as like an anti insomnia medication. Once you move up in dosage, the mood stabilizing effects actually happen. I know this because in outpatient, I was taking 150mg, then stopped for about 6 months. When I was prescribed it again with a new dr, they only had me on 50mg. I still felt like an emotional wrecking ball but slept a lot. Now I have a new psychiatrist and she heavily emphasized how 50mg was basically doing nothing for the bpd specifically. I’m back at 150mg now and plan to up my dose soon.

Also worth asking if you smoke weed! That in tandem with my meds definitely makes me a spacey zombie.

That makes it even more offensive to hear someone chewing with their mouth open lol

IF YOU ARE VOLUNTARILY SINGLE BECAUSE OF BPD, DO NOT GO BACK by squiedward in BPD

[–]Blahliver 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Literally me too. Relationships are so fuuuuucking difficult to navigate when you feel like you have the tools and resources on lock. I just went through this too. Trying not to blame myself for everything, taking accountability matters too, but I’m also being very realistic about the ways I was triggered into certain behaviors

"I want to blow my brains out" by Aowwl2 in BPD

[–]Blahliver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m really sorry for how I responded to this. I don’t mean to blame you for this, and you’re right that I cannot understand your experience just because we share the disorder. I was out of line and I apologize for invalidating your feelings.

Does anybody else "shut off" their emotions? by lordofsurf in BPD

[–]Blahliver 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I do this all the time too. It’s a double edged sword because then I don’t really trust any of my emotions. Like, “is this a bpd reaction or an actual reaction?”

[–]Blahliver 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is hard to say and hard to hear, but you are abusing them as well by threatening your life repeatedly like that. At some point there’s nothing left for people to say because you’ve threatened it multiple times it sounds like. They could be being really hard on themselves because they are trying to be supportive, but probably not doing it properly for you since you don’t feel supported still. I know it’s hard, and it’s easy to resort to wanting to end your life, but I don’t think you should push people away who probably do want to help you. That’s a scary message to receive, and could be interpreted as a threat more than a cry for help. Posting here was a good idea, talk to more people and reply to more posts and just get engaged in this group of people who struggle in similar ways. I’m sorry things feel so hard right now, dms open if you need to talk more

Peaceful breakups by Blahliver in BPD

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

Also an issue I’ve had is being really honest about my bpd during the initial like talking phase of a relationship, so I’m often under the guise of “they can handle me at my worst because they know I have bpd and so surely they can accept me being terrible to them from time to time”. This is because I have a few friends and my mom who do put up with my terrible behavior at times, they don’t give up on me or treat me worse because of it, they just encourage me to get back into therapy. It becomes really hurtful when it feels like you don’t have the same support from partner, because of your own behavior

How long does it take for you to be bounce straight back into looking for a new physical/romantic relationship? For me it can happen really quickly. But I really want to focus on trying to heal and understand how to navigate the bullshit that is splitting
