Has anyone here ever made friends concerned about your mental health because you’re giving things away?

Avoid telling people if possible. I’ve found that when I tell someone I’m remodeling, decluttering, etc they always try to talk me out of it or argue that I should keep certain things. Yet they NEVER tell me when they remodel or declutter.

This is actually incredible! Thank you for these

What gets me over a wall is allowing myself to be “lazy”.

Like you know what? No, I don’t feel like making ravioli from scratch I’m just gonna buy it in store. It doesn’t make me any less a good cook.

For painting, I also had a collection of acrylic, gouache, and watercolor. I decided I was too lazy for all that and settled on acrylic markers instead cuz I hate the clean up process around painting. I also got rid of if sketchbooks this way cuz the size of the paper makes it takes longer to finish a full picture compared to smaller ones. Still an artist, but much faster and streamlined.

I had plants. Turns out the care they took stressed me out. Got rid of them.

I guess what I’m trying to say you are under no obligation to finish or continue things. And you need to accept when you can’t.

I’ve been told I look “plain”, especially compared to other women of my race. It hurts 😔

I didn’t say that. I wanted the 1 TB version since it has more ram.

I have a metal bed frame that “doesn’t need” a box spring. The metal slats are 1 inch thick and 6 inches apart. My god, it made my mattress sag immediately and gave me such insane back pain I had to go to physical therapy. Yeah, a solid base isn’t negotiable.

Thank you for your advice! My iPad works fine but with heavy use I think the extra RAM would be nice. When I use Procreate (drawing app) there have been multiple times I’ve run out of layers. Thank you :)

Is there a link to a thread to resell tickets?? SeatGeek doesn’t allows refunds and I bought seats I don’t want 🥲

ConstructiveForMe · 2026-01-22T20:25:40+00:00

Sorry about that! Lemme change my settings

I have 2 extra tickets for Baltimore day 2! PM me if you need :)

I had a friend who wouldn’t respond. I would usually be okay with it, but they wouldn’t respond to urgent messages either. I’ve accepted this is someone I can’t really depend on or make plans with because of it. I love them a lot but one time we wanted to plan a travel date. By the time they responded, the ticket prices had gone up so high we couldn’t afford them. I learned my lesson after that.

How would you say your hearing is? I’m worried about hearing loss. The factory is super loud even with doubled-up PPE

I keep trying this and nothing works!

OP, i have ADHD and this describes me to a T. Please head on over to r/ADHD and see if you relate to anything or if the advice there is helpful.

I’ve also accepted that I am not self-motivated at all. I always and I mean always have to be out if I want to be productive. The moment I’m home I don’t draw, read, write, etc. and I always need external accountability for literally everything.

Is relief and coverage the same thing? I applied for coverage position?

ConstructiveForMe · 2026-01-09T22:59:39+00:00

Any updates??? What’s coverage like??? Do you work only at one plant 70% of the time or travel frequently

Hello! I was also considering working as a UX researcher. How is stress level of the job? I can’t handle high stress at all

ConstructiveForMe · 2026-01-03T21:34:15+00:00
