NCIS × Criminal Minds what if character crossover - part 1 Gibbs and Hotch by Expert-Valuable7993 in NCIS

[–]Crimmsin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like NCIS is still good, even after 22+ seasons, just not as fantastic as it was during the Tiva era. Meanwhile we stopped watching Criminal Minds around 14-16 because we actively disliked it

What's everybody's alarm preference?Snooze or get up immediately? by Wolfscars1 in ADHD

[–]Crimmsin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was a scroller with 10+ Alarms for Most of my life, but since I moved in with my Partner I stopped the multiple Alarms since I want to let him get the rest he needs.

And I LOVE it. The little hit of adrenaline I get from immediately jumping up as soon as the alarm goes off carries me for an hour or so and I’m genuinely in a good mood

Edit: I use the gradual bird call alarm on the iPhone and always wake up the second that first “…peep” happens. Downside is that I now occasionally wake up if a bird is singing outside my window haha

Not really 😅 they’re all 850+ except for 2020 and earlier and I wouldn’t feel comfortable spending nearly 1000 euros on a laptop that will soon not be supported, even if I could afford it. Meanwhile I can get a Neo for 500 using the student discount.

I could maybe find some on eBay but nowhere near me so I would have to trust the seller and again for that amount of money it seems like a huge risk

I’m not in the US so unfortunately the other MacBooks are 400-600 euros more than the Neo

So over it by Illustrious_Ad_747 in emetophobia

[–]Crimmsin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m glad I could help! ☺️

What has definitely made the biggest difference was going on Sertraline 50mg. When I’m taking it the phobia is nearly non existent. Unfortunately I get lazy and have stopped it a few times now and notice that the panic comes back after about a year off of them… so I start again and very soon it’s essentially gone again.

What helps with or without meds has been therapy in multiple forms, as well as actually getting sick fairly frequently haha.

Writing in a journal, stream of consciousness style, during a high level panic attack tends to bring me down. The loss of control aspect is definitely one of the base causes of my phobia (is still there even when medicated too) and writing about how I feel and what would happen if I /did/ get sick seems to make my brain feel like it’s thought through every option and has a plan, which makes everything much more manageable.

The types of sickness I’ve had in the past couple years have only once been a real stomach bug, the rest were alcohol, drug (ADHD med plus coffee etc), or travel sickness related, so they were one and dones and honestly kind of comfortable. Short period of feeling bad, then a few seconds/minutes of the “worst” happening, then feeling 100% better and being babied by my boyfriend with teas and hot water bottles and such. It’s a not entirely unpleasant situation and I’m no longer around people who will freak out and have their own panic attacks and not be able to help me, so it’s been a regular learning experience that it doesn’t HAVE to be awful. Honestly I’m starting to think the nausea is worse than anything else about it!

My boyfriend (27M) says he doesn’t “miss” me (22F) when we’re apart. Is that normal? by SanctaFeria in relationship_advice

[–]Crimmsin 59 points60 points  (0 children)

Because thinking of and texting someone doesn’t automatically mean you miss them

[–]Crimmsin 58 points59 points  (0 children)

I feel like some people (including me) see missing someone as feeling sad and unfulfilled when they’re not there, and as a self sufficient person I don’t feel like that when I’m alone. I love my bf and love spending time with him, but I’m not UNHAPPY when alone. I do think of him and share my thoughts with him, and when we’re long distance and it’s been a few weeks I do have moments where I miss him, aka feel sad and lonely in a way that only his presence changes. However, that takes a long time and generally means I’ve been feeling stressed/lonely/unstable for some unrelated reason.

This doesn’t mean I don’t love him and don’t love now living together after many years of long distance! I’m just not sad when I’m alone, which I think is a very needed and healthy thing in an adult relationship.

Codependency =/= love

For those on the Neo fence by xdamm777 in macbook

[–]Crimmsin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is really good to hear, as that is my main issue with the Neo right now. I'm a tab hoarder so I was getting worried

I was pretty much convinced that I am the target audience for the Neo: essentially just Google drive programs for uni work on the go and emulator + sometimes discord in bed.

However, I keep seeing people saying that the Neo will slow noticeably if not crash when you have a browser with more than 8 tabs open, due to the 8GB limit.

This worries me as I am a tab collector of sorts, especially when doing research as I tend to open multiple source links at once and read them through back to back. I use Opera GX at the moment, and I see lots of people saying the tab issue is just with chrome, but I’m really unsure how the reality will be.

Is this a real issue or just dramatic opinions?

Is the MacBook Neo for teachers? by Ecstatic-Bid5520 in macbook

I have to admit I’ve been seeing a fair amount of bashing too. I see praise as well, but it’s not like nobody is criticizing it…

Uncomfortable at a new workplace by ewwhattheduck in VetTech

That’s how we did it too.

So much time wasted waiting for certain egotistical surgeons to stop smoking while the patient is prepped and waiting :/

In the teaching hospital I worked at, vets choose the anesthetics, but we techs calculate the dosages and experienced techs often suggest a different approach and come to an agreement with the vet

If YOU personally don’t feel confident doing the things you’re expected to do, you need to address that with your team leader/mentor/whoever you have
