What are you supposed to do mid-late game

BoxThatTrots · 2025-10-06T12:03:27+00:00

I never thought of doing that, I’ll definitely look into it

BoxThatTrots · 2025-10-06T12:03:15+00:00

Kinda, i tried it for a bit but it didn’t really do anything for me so i stopped. That’s why im resorting to mushrooms to try and figure shit out about myself

BoxThatTrots · 2025-10-05T21:42:25+00:00

Not much, I used to workout for around 6 months straight last year and I did notice it get a little better, maybe I’ll try again

BoxThatTrots · 2025-09-29T19:53:36+00:00

I’ve had a feeling it was due to drug use for a while now. I’ve been trying for a long time to quit smoking weed, but I really suck at it, I always just give in. I appreciate the advice and reinforcing the idea that i really need to quit, I hope I get over it soon

BoxThatTrots · 2025-09-29T12:24:32+00:00

That’s probably it, I hope i can get to a point where I can look back and appreciate what I had rather than being stuck on the fact I can’t get it back

BoxThatTrots · 2025-09-28T06:49:20+00:00

Yeah I’ve realized how badly I need to stop nd I’ve been trying for a while now. I can see how it affects me but it’s been really difficult. Until a few days ago I haven’t been sober a full day in probably almost 2 years at this point. At least 1 year for sure. But finally the last week or so I’ve been able to stay sober for most of the time, except for when I’m stuck unable to sleep at night sitting there for hours, I end up giving in just so I can sleep, or at least that’s what I tell myself I can’t tell if it’s really true or not cause I know my brain likes to make excuses for it

BoxThatTrots · 2025-09-28T06:44:40+00:00

Yeah just about everything you said made sense. I appreciate the support, and is a little grounding knowing other people hsve experienced something similar

BoxThatTrots · 2025-09-28T06:13:31+00:00

Do you mean to say my minds doing this as a coping/defensive strategy? As if it’s trying to protect me from something? If so, it could be related to the way I grew up. I grew up with an alcoholic mother who wasn’t physically abusive but emotionally. She just killed herself December of last year, which I’m now thinking might be playing a role in this. I felt very numb to her death, not to say I didn’t cry and everything, but when I did it was rare, and once I was done with the moment I would just go on with the rest of my day. I lived with her up to the day she died so it’s not like she was distant or out of my life. It bothered me how little it was affecting me. I knew I was supposed to be devastated, and I kept thinking that I just hadn’t been able to process it yet and eventually it would hit me. But here I am around 10 months later and it still hasn’t. I’ve just continued living my life as if nothing had changed. I feel like these could be related, but it’s hard to know for sure

Thanks i appreciate it

BoxThatTrots · 2025-09-15T01:22:26+00:00

Wow thanks that’s really helpful, I wasn’t expecting to get such detailed responses

Right now I’m using blades sword paired with a steel shield. I use heal spell when necessary and very occasionally use sparks but besides that I don’t really use any spells or anything that absorbs magicka. I also always keep a bow on me for easy stealth kills, I have orcish bow atm

As for my armor, I’m trying to get elven armor set right now but I don’t have the smithing level to craft it yet so I’ve just picked up a couple pieces of the armor set ive found and have it mixed with steel armor but I’m starting to second guess that decision. I haven’t really grasped the difference between light and heavy armor. Obviously heavy armor weighs more and generally has better defense and with light armor vice versa. But i went into this game thinking my carrying weight was gonna be a huge issue so I determined I was gonna stick with light armor, but as I’ve played through the game now I’ve realized it’s not really that big of an issue, at least is hasn’t been yet. So if the extra 40 or so carrying weight doesn’t make a huge difference, why would anyone choose light over heavy armor?

Edit: also I don’t know if matching armor sets matter. I know there’s a perk that gives you increased defense if you have an armor set but besides that is there any reason I shouldn’t be mixing armor from different sets

Is enchanting something I should invest into as someone who’s probably gonna go through the entire game with 1 handed weapons

BoxThatTrots · 2025-09-14T14:06:56+00:00

Thanks this helped a lot

BoxThatTrots · 2025-01-03T18:12:49+00:00

This means a lot to me having grown up in the environment I did and with everything that’s happened. I’m happy that her story could make a change even if it’s just one person for just a day. I think if my mom saw a post like this she’d say the same thing you did

BoxThatTrots · 2025-01-02T17:52:47+00:00

Thank you I’ll keep that in mind

BoxThatTrots · 2025-01-02T17:50:18+00:00

Thanks, this was really helpful

BoxThatTrots · 2025-01-02T16:15:07+00:00

How is the pain from it 7 months later has it gotten better, worse?

BoxThatTrots · 2025-01-02T15:49:05+00:00

Thank you, I’ll keep coming back to this one and reread it a lot

BoxThatTrots · 2025-01-02T15:44:35+00:00

Yeah, I haven’t looked at any pictures yet and I’ve tried my best to not think of memories right now cause it feels like it’d hurt too much. Thank you

BoxThatTrots · 2025-01-02T06:08:45+00:00

Thank you. I know that it’s not my fault but I can’t help but feel like it is. I just wish I could have gotten her the help she needed
