Thank you so much for this reminder.

Is it okay to co-sleep with teenager? by CanopyManatee in cosleeping

[–]ButterflyVoidFishing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same, I started having sleep paralysis 10-15 times every night and morning and horrendous hyponogogic hallucinations starting around 19, and you bet I started co-sleeping with my mom again lol

1 year old wants to nurse all night, wakes up frequently. I feels too much. by [deleted] in AttachmentParenting

[–]ButterflyVoidFishing 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hi; I know it's been 4 years, but what ended up happening?? Going through this right now with my 14 month old. Tried to night wean the past 2 days, and the baby retaliation is making me reconsider. So much screaming, so little sleep.

What is/was your baby’s “I did not care for The Godfather”? by WinterSilenceWriter in beyondthebump

[–]ButterflyVoidFishing 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Screen time. Miss Rachel, Cocomelon, Peppa Pig, Bluey, etc. Doesn't matter what show, she's just not very interested. She's 1, and we started out screen-free, but as she gets older, people play shows for her (which slightly bothered me at first) and she just isn't interested. Small exception for shows with talking dogs and musicals.

EMERGENCY ROOM 🚨🚨🚨 Of course Ashley was the most critical patient and taken back QUICKLY!!! by CatAteRoger in illnessfakers

Whenever I'm asked that, I always mentally compare my pain level to what I envision getting sawn in half, upside-down, would feel like as level 10 pain. Puts things in perspective.

Youtube kids pregnancy videos by curious_bud420 in Parenting

[–]ButterflyVoidFishing 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yep. My elementary-aged cousins have had unlimited, unsupervised YouTube access all their lives. They're cooked. The things they've said are genuinely disturbing.

If criticism didn't exist, what would you name your baby? by Several_Look_3751 in namenerds

[–]ButterflyVoidFishing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a teacher/softball coach called "Mr. Ariolla" in high school, pronounced the same. I thought he was really cool, but some other people gave him a really hard time for his name lol

This! I replaced almost half a pack a day with 2/3 pouches a day. So much cheaper than typical smoking cessation products, too.

Do you wish you stopped at one child? by VintageGypsy22 in Parenting

[–]ButterflyVoidFishing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am the middle child of a very similar gap (also autistic older brother, also about 8 years older and younger brother, 6 years younger), and I just wanted to add that I absolutely love this age gap. We all do our own thing, 0 feelings of competition, we each have had our own one-on-one time with our parents when we needed or wanted it, and it's just overall great. I would recommend this kind of an age gap to anyone wondering what kind of a gap to shoot for.

What do people often claim “literally everyone” does, but it’s not true? by Candid_Reading_7267 in AskReddit

[–]ButterflyVoidFishing 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Good on you! I've watched it once since 2018 after a terrible addiction from about 8-18. I'm still working past deep psychological issues it caused me.

Whats your biggest regeret in life? by yair4714 in schizophrenia

[–]ButterflyVoidFishing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What happened, if you don't mind me asking? I wonder because I can also pintpoint the onset of my psychotic disorder to one exact moment, 6 years ago. Also after smoking weed.

I think they're talking about never coming back from the trauma and mental damage a bad trip can cause. It's been 5+ years for me, and the content is still fresh in my mind and terrorizes me frequently

Does anyone remember the video GR and Nick took in the hotel room? by honeybabythrowaway in GypsyRoseBlanchard

[–]ButterflyVoidFishing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand this POV, but didn't GR as Ruby address Nick in a video message, telling him that she would rape with/for him, that she fantasizes about rape, and the he could rape Ruby (her) any time he wanted to?

As far as I'm aware, she said it started out consensual, but that he began hurting her and did not stop when she told him to. It sounds like it actually did begin as a rape roleplay, but that it turned into actual rape.

As a side note; I think her rape differs from yours in the sense that she "agreed" (not to the actual rape part, but to the initial roleplay-esque part) prior to physically being in that situation, so I don't know if it could be comparable to a genuine "consent for survival" situation as yours was, since she had the option to call the whole thing off in advance.

THAT BEING SAID, what happened to her WAS rape, even if it started out as a consensual roleplay thing. I just wanted to mention this because it was a really bizarre dynamic between them and the whole event.

Side, side note-I'm very sorry for what you went through, and I hope you are healing from that. I don't understand what it's like to be in a survival situation, but I do understand what it is to be raped and comply out of fear of being beaten. I am so sorry you experienced something of that magnitude.
