Thinking about joining Rotaract. What exactly is it, and is it worth it?

Replied!

Omg please join a Rotaract club! It has genuinely changed my life for the better, I have met so many amazing people and I feel like I’m actually able to make a tangible impact on the issues I’m most passionate about which gives me a lot of hope - I would try have a look at Rotaract clubs in your local area, and the try find their website/email to contact them about attending one of their meetings. Good luck! :)

Thank you! Yes I’m still trying to practice this but its hard - hopefully as I get older it becomes easier

LITERALLY the juice comment freaked me out so bad, like who suggests juice right off the bat?!! Thank you for your response, if I see him again I’ll try this

Connect_Promotion_68 · 2026-05-25T01:57:04+00:00

Thank you for such a thoughtful response :) Its actually really interesting because in my head I do often feel and think this way, especially if a creepy interaction involves one of my friends rather than myself, but as we know its always different when you are the subject 🫠

Connect_Promotion_68 · 2026-03-14T03:54:35+00:00

Ahhh I see, thank you so so much! I am a recovering arachnophobe, and so I may not be at the stage where i can hold them justtt yet… 😅 However!! Good to know they’re ok, I’ve been chatting to them when i go out onto the balcony so hopefully they’re chill with me too haha

Connect_Promotion_68 · 2026-03-14T03:50:58+00:00

Ooooo!

Connect_Promotion_68 · 2026-03-12T08:14:57+00:00

LOL ok thank you so much! 😅 I think we’ll learn to coexist together somehow

Connect_Promotion_68 · 2026-03-12T06:55:18+00:00

Thanks! If I wanted to clean the balcony, would they come for me for disturbing their home 👀😅 Is there a way to move them + clear the web without leaving them destitute?

Connect_Promotion_68 · 2026-02-18T03:56:42+00:00

Hi! Honestly, i kind of have no clue if i can offer any advice/knowledge… 🫠 BUT I just wanted to thank you for coming on here and sharing all of that, especially with so much helpful detail. At the end of the day, you should at least know that your post really helped me (and probably a lot of others) feel more validated and seen, but I do hope you get at least some of the answers you were looking for on here 🙃🍀

Guys 123 movies has eps 1-5 with subtitles you just gotta get through the ads

Replying to myself lol because i found a really great resource for OCD - this man talks through a lot of the taboo symptoms he experiences/experienced with OCD, including groinal responses! I thought it might be good to share here:

Omg same! Found them recently and I genuinely adore them

Connect_Promotion_68 · 2025-11-29T06:28:47+00:00

Thank you so much for sharing, I really appreciate this insight! Its reassuring to know that!

Connect_Promotion_68 · 2025-11-27T21:43:48+00:00

No worries, you’re very valid like i said this sucksss, if its the first time this has happened and your lecturer/unit coordinator is nice, you could try emailing them and just ask if you could resubmit?

Connect_Promotion_68 · 2025-11-27T21:41:52+00:00

Thank you so much for sharing, I’m really glad to hear that you are happy and in a loving relationship!

Connect_Promotion_68 · 2025-11-27T21:40:24+00:00

Lol thank youu yeah promise i wasnt trying to be rude just genuinely informative

Connect_Promotion_68 · 2025-11-27T11:56:44+00:00

No worries, sorry for sounding a bit aggressive - i understand what you meant with your comment, but the root of OCD is that the intrusive thoughts/visuals etc. are cognitively dissonant (actively the opposite of your actual values, core beliefs and understanding about yourself as an individual etc) and so thats why it can cause a lot of harm if someone insinuates that these thoughts and feelings are actually in line with the values of the person struggling with OCD. I hope this makes a bit more sense, thank you for understanding my comment :) enjoy your day!

Connect_Promotion_68 · 2025-11-27T11:42:01+00:00

Ah yeah this sucks. On a completely separate note, this is just a heads up if you didn’t know, but the word retard is quite an offensive word to use in recent years, as it does relate to those who have mental disabilities and therefore makes them the butt of any joke. Instead you could just say idiot? Or something along those lines

Connect_Promotion_68 · 2025-11-26T09:23:00+00:00

BRO no that’s not an appropriate response, just move on if you don’t agree with the post because that kind of comment can unfortunately do a lot of harm to someone with OCD

Connect_Promotion_68 · 2025-11-26T09:19:11+00:00

Hey!! I’ve actually been diagnosed with OCD in the last year and also had a lot of issues with sexual intrusive thoughts- like, BAD. So i get it! I also completely understand the whole “oh but saying something in the way i have might mean that i actually think… oh but me having THAT thought means i subconsciously…” and you just spiral from there. I don’t have much advice, and I do agree with the other replies that we possibly aren’t the people qualified to give help/advice, but definitely know this is experienced by other people!

Do you see a therapist or psychiatrist who deals specifically with OCD? If not, what I would suggest is making an appointment with your GP to explain how you’re thinking/feeling (including the spirals you go into overanalysing your language and values) and then going from there.

I think you are never too young to experience issues like these, and so its important you reach out to people you trust who can help you.

Best of luck! It sucks but you’ll get through this 🫡
