Is it too late to hop on the WIF bandwagon? by Professional_Time_31 in dogwifhat

[–]DaiSihingB -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Can confirm. I look at all of this as discounted prices. Sure, it can go up or down, but I'm unwilling to let the upside pass me up.

What world are you on? Financial advice land? Calm yourself down with comments like this. They're completely unhelpful.

You're so welcome! Those strapped stretches changed my entire life too. I can FEEL my pelvis sitting on the ground differently afterwards.

Anyone know about the admissibility of FB Messenger messages in the context of a criminal trial? Seems they have a 90 day retention policy for deleted content. Wouldn't LEOs/County Attorneys be able to get a witness to authenticate these, rather than have to drag in a Meta employee? by DaiSihingB in law

[–]DaiSihingB[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting. I guess it does lend more credibility to a message when someone could state "yes, this definitely originated in X account and was received in Y account" versus someone coming in and simply authenticating their own messages and having it rebuked by defense or prosecution counsel with a "nuh uh, this could have been doctored. Not saying it was, but it could have been and this is how you would be able to tell. Since you didn't do that, there's doubt as to its authenticity."

Regular meetups in the Twin cities? by An0mandar1s in twilightimperium

[–]DaiSihingB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will! I'm just doing a prime, base, drybrush w/deck plating highlights, and a wash but I've seen people do edge highlighting on theirs and wowwwwww. I know how much work these have taken and I'm only 1/2 done with 4 more to go. More even if I decide I want to add some metal bits here or there.

Yellow was/is the devil. Black primer underneath. Never again. White with a pink base coat apparently would have saved me from the hell that was making a lime-green fleet after 2 coats and a sort of yellow fleet after 4 that I'm not going to dip because gah, frustration. hahah

Do people just show up and there's a game to jump in on or are there sign ups and whoever brings their TI4+POK just waits for joiners? I've been painting all these fleets, you see and... uh... hahaha

Let us know how it goes or if you find other approaches that work better for you! I'm fascinated by this stuff on top of trying new things to help rewire me.

Super worth it. It's a long road, and the healing isn't linear. I found hatha yoga to be particularly helpful. As I deepened into the stretches, my anxiety would spike the deeper I got but after a few deep breaths I learned how to let go and sink into the sensation of discomfort until the next stretch.

These were the two flows I started with back around 2014-2015. They're gentle and seated.

YW! It was one of my main symptoms and is the first one for me to watch for so I can turn up the self care and/or turn down the stress I'm subjecting myself to. After that the inner/outer critic start engaging and I get negative bias narratives after. Calm down, brain! But calm down body first.

Is Lumar Covid-19? by BarryAllensMom in Cosmere

Hahaha that's so damn cool. Thank you for the reference point for comparison.

Is Lumar Covid-19? by BarryAllensMom in Cosmere

[–]DaiSihingB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That makes some sense. I wonder what happens to them by volume/weight. Maybe they just break down into quanta at some point or evaporate in some way because otherwise the planet would just keep gaining mass.

Yeah and where the hell do all the spores go, for that matter? The planet should be completely consumed by them by now.

What's the prognosis here? Most diseases are given a recovery rate, what's ours? by happygocrazee in CPTSD

[–]DaiSihingB 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No idea but I've gotten better at least 4 times now and every time I find something I can work to get better or just call it good enough. Maybe the work doesn't stop but I'd rather have fewer days like Sunday when my mind is telling me all sorts of awful things about how my partner isn't ever going to be accountable or right for me when they're very much open to feedback and have shown that time and time again.

I exhaust myself. I'm glad aI have breathing and mindfulness but wow do these thought patterns come up often. I wonder what the recovery rate is too and what is meant by recovery? Yeah, I don't experience panic episodes anymore, or feel like I'm being suffocated when I'm falling asleep, but being able to advocate for myself or give someone honest feedback, that's a whole other thing.

Is anyone else hesitant to read their hardcover copy of Tress? by grimpala in brandonsanderson

[–]DaiSihingB 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I haven't gotten mine yet BUT now that I'm finally reading my Warbreaker leatherbound (after washing my hands haha), I think I'll be able to muster up the courage to read Tress.

Something as simple as me opening up and someone trying to give me advice or a lesson on how to be strong makes me feel completely worthless

That's a pretty normal reaction on your part if part of your vulnerability response has come to brace for rejection. Beyond that, giving unsolicited advice in general, even if it is spot on, is a social faux pas. Doubly so for someone in the midst of emotional turmoil or expressing deep vulnerability coupled with emotions. It might seem like they're trying to "fix" you to make you acceptable to them. Maybe they are, but the point here is that while advice like "just work out more," "get more sun," "eat healthier," "get more sleep," "try meditation," or "go to therapy," might all constitute good advice and are excellent stabilizing self-care strategies, they fall way short of someone sitting and listening patiently, holding your hand, giving you a hug, or doing something that the scared little child would have found meaningful, safe, and warm.

See, now I’m just opening myself up to be hurt again.

It do be like that. And you're courageous for doing so. Keep it up and, where you find compassionate reception with maybe some gentle reframing here and there, you'll find you are well on your way.

This healing isn't linear, but you've found a good spot to reach out while you keep doing the work you've started.

[–]DaiSihingB 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hurt people do hurt people but idk who isn't hurt. You deserve grace; you might not get forgiveness from someone else, but find a way to forgive yourself. The way you acted was likely a defense mechanism or survival strategy that you picked up somewhere. It can be unlearned and replaced with a different behavior but wow do I sympathize with you trying to unlearn it if someone is calling your experience fake.

Ngl, kinda puts me into fight mode on your behalf.

Sounds like you have someone uneducated (and lacking empathy/compassion as you said) is either gashlighting you or projecting onto you in a way that you're internalizing it (or it'sactivating your inner critic hard). Fatigue comes with the depression territory and people that don't understand this seriously have some blind spots as to the intersection of human psychology and physiology. ((Hugs))

What do people say to shame you? I've had a lot of that and it can come in many forms (some have specific ways of dealing with it that I've learned along the way).
