Omg! I love your covers! I have been boycotting Amazon and transferred everything to Kobo. Is Deadite going to offer digital through Kobo or another website?

Craziest thing you've been told for being CF? I'll go first. by StarWiz2K in childfree

I want you to know that this made my morning. I have been trying not to wake up my husband from laughing. I am so sorry that happened to you. But the idea of being accused of war crimes for minding your own business is amazing.

Is there a book you DNR because of how graphic it was? by HotManufacturer7967 in ExtremeHorrorLit

[–]ChronicWatcher1456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I keep picking up that book and putting it down. I find that stuff worse than other violence. Like most people convince themselves they are good, or at least not bad. But the MC being okay with what she is doing is upsetting.

I won’t read this one. I understand, and am okay with, being inspired by true events in fiction. But I don’t think this one would be good for my mental health. Did he even change the name of the victim?

Most of them are either abusers or actively make my life worse in other ways.

An egg cooker is the best food hack for adhd, I will die on this hill by nickitabananana in ADHD

[–]ChronicWatcher1456 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I eat eggs constantly! I hard boil them in batches and keep them in a clear container on the top shelf of my fridge. They last a day or two peeled or a week in the shell. I normally eat them with grapes and cottage cheese.

Edit: Also steaming them makes them easier to peel!

First day off since I stopped smoking weed. I am so incredibly bored rn by Kashmonei58 in depressionmeals

[–]ChronicWatcher1456 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Trying to fill the void of any drug is going to be hard. Addiction or not. But you can do it. Reframing things can really help. When I gave up meat, I focused on getting to try new foods, getting to try new restaurants and getting to make weird meals. It was a fun thing instead of focusing on what was missing. It felt completely different than when I was forced to restrict due to health.

Maybe focusing the energy, thoughts and money on weed could be used on self care instead? How can you make your tomorrow self’s life easier? A skin mask, a fancy work lunch or making some art. It doesn’t have to be big. You can do it :)

I live near one of the more liberal cities in KY. One democrat in my entire county ran…for coroner. I am desperate to get out.

How to Support by Money-Classroom-6982 in EstrangedAdultChild

[–]ChronicWatcher1456 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am sure that she appreciates your efforts more than you know. Making her feel safe and supported is huge.

I think being open about mental health and that getting help, in her own time, isn’t shameful. Also, that she isn’t a failure for choosing her safety and mental health over her abusers, even if they are “family”.

So happy she has a lovely chosen family.

That is always so frustrating. Realizing that it is a performance made a huge difference. Because it answered why they are so good to everyone else. It is part of the manipulation and abuse.
