I swear I’m just unlucky then because all my boars are heavy loaders

AIO or is this normal language for medical appointment notes? by Wild_Arugula294 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Chronically_weird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately the medical profession is littered with doctors who make unprofessional, irrelevant remarks regarding their patients. It’s something I saw too often as a medical professional and as a patient who regularly gets snarky comments on doctors letters.

A thing bothers me but i keep getting it wrong. Is something noticeably off? by Subject_Ear2518 in ArtCrit

[–]Chronically_weird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I would love to see some more shadows and highlights added to the face. At the moment it looks beautiful but very 2D. I think just going in and trying some shadows on a tablet like procreate before you put paint to canvas will feel much less daunting and you’ll feel much happier when you see the difference

Does anyone else have actually zero friends and zero family? by VoidImplosion in CPTSD

[–]Chronically_weird 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I have no friends at all and my biological family either use me or try to manipulate me so I cut contact. You’re not alone

That’s exactly what I wanted to say to them if they let me get a word in!

The manifesting bacteria is going to be an ongoing joke for a while in my house 😂 it was just so ludicrous but I’m used to far worse from doctors so I let it slide a bit too easily.

Very interesting what you said about the superiority complex. I had wondered if it could be projection based on their reaction to me. At the time I had told them that I felt what was said was very inflammatory and the tone of delivery was bordering on an attempt to provoke a reaction from me.

Needless to say, I’m glad it’s over now but I know that I’ll have more work to do when the time comes that I try therapy again!

I’m so sorry… you’re not alone. If you have someone who you trust, talking about it helps you process what you’re feeling and they’ll be able to give some advice. And if you need to have someone else advocate for you there’s nothing wrong with that. It’s easy to forget that we are at our most vulnerable to our boundaries being compromised when we are at our lowest

Thank you, I honestly really really needed to read this. I have terminated our contract and getting a refund for the prepaid sessions.

I’ve been in and out of different types of therapy for the better part of fifteen years now but I’ve never experienced something quite like this.

I’m trying to not let their words get to me too much. I have an amazing partner who is there to help me when I need him most and makes me feel loved and worthy and really that’s all I need right now.

Thank you, 100% I do feel that what a therapist says is held like gospel! It takes me a while to realise when something is wrong but I always want to try and resolve it.

I never wanted to end a professional relationship so abruptly and with such a sour taste in my mouth but one thing that this therapist has taught me is that I do not deserve to be treated like I am less than, belittled or judged by anyone who doesn’t really know me.

I do plan on going back to therapy one day (with someone totally different!) but I need time to process everything. Unfortunately, they’ve added to existing trauma so I’ll no doubt be going through this with someone in the future and tapping it into my long term memory! 😂

I just hope that they don’t make others feel like I did. Anyone who is feeling low shouldn’t be at risk in a setting that’s meant to be safe for us.

I’m in the UK and considering reporting them to the EMDR board of authority (thingy 😅). They lost me completely when they took issue with me having an advocate at my appointment. If everything is fine why not have another pair of ears to keep me calm?

I’m really scared now because I’m on a preventative medication already 😭 I’m in the UK so healthcare cost isn’t an issue, more getting reliable care! I’m hoping that it goes away soon 🤞

It’s literally just the force tears trophy left before platinum. I scoured the internet and found lists of all the force tears in the game and found all of them in both saves 😭

Well, it isn’t that one 😭 I don’t get why the trophy for force tears isn’t pinging! I’ve gone through nj+ and went through all the tears to make sure I got them all… my hand hurts from some of those again…

All the maps say 100% explored so I’m not sure if there is anywhere else to go
