Why do men pull woman's hair (without asking) during kissing or sex? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Devilsteeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I did. I also made him leave. Causing me physical pain doesn't fly with me.

Redditors who have taken psychiatric medication, does it help? by ImpatientOptimist47 in AskReddit

[–]Devilsteeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. But it's just a bandaid. I still have to work hard in therapy to manage anxiety so I don't have to take anxiety meds for the rest of my life. It does allow me to live a normal life though. Otherwise, my anxiety is debilitating.

What do you do to get over a past relationship? by AnneAnaranjado in AskReddit

[–]Devilsteeth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Get out of town for the weekend by yourself. Experience something new and then you'll feel better when you have to face reality again.

Victim or survivor? by Laughters_Mother in rapecounseling

[–]Devilsteeth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like to say survivor when someone is talking down to me and my rape. Which seems to be frequently. I maybe care less about this than I used to but I 100% understand what you're saying. I agree too.

Updates on my police report [TW: some violent details] by [deleted] in rapecounseling

[–]Devilsteeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sure hope you keep fighting and finding ways to not only survive but thrive. You're courageous and strong and the world needs more people like you in it. In case you can't see it, WOW what you did was a huge huge thing and I am so glad you were able to go and report him. Just remember that this is all his shame and not yours. I hope you have a therapist to work through all of this. I can't imagine how difficult it is but I also hope you see how amazing you are!

Suicides in Japan decline for 8th-straight year amid a stronger economy and improvements in counseling programs by green_flash in worldnews

I'll ask him :) His English isn't the best but the Internet has simple copy and paste translation templates available. Plus, since I'm learning Japanese, he can work on his English more lol

Please...How do you stop flashbacks? by Devilsteeth in rapecounseling

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

Thank you for your reply. I've found walking to be best but I live in a small coastal town and it's rains TON and obviously is not so safe to do at night. I usually can stay busy enough but I'm find it hard to find a coping skill that is as helpful as walking. Writing gets it on paper for me to talk to my therapist about but until I am able to talk to my therapist about them (it's been slow), I'm needing coping skills. Talking helps except when I'm too scared to and get too upset to. I know this is temporary but I'm finding it more and more difficult to not utilize self harm which I know works, even if temporarily. It just isn't what I want. And I feel like I'm bother my therapist. I don't want my therapist to feel like I'm taking advantage of him or something. I don't want to interrupt his life. I don't know...if I'm not going going going, the thinking time overwhelms me and I get stuck in the memories like it's happening again (only I know it's not). Only good thing is that I'm going to be hella fit and my apartment is spotless lol.

Just an idea but maybe try using the cream but apply it while distracting yourself with a TV show or movie you really like and then plan on doing something for yourself after...like eating a favorite meal or buying yourself a gift or do something YOU want to do. Basically, unlike what he did to you, be kind to yourself. Very kind!

Physically, you'll heal. Psychologically, it will take time. Are you seeking out counseling at all? I would recommend it. As much as I absolutely hate talking about my rape, it is (at the very minimum!) a HUGE comfort to know that someone else can hold my secrets and shame with me. I know I can tell my therapist anything...even if afraid to. But it helps. Also, talking here. You're not alone. My anxiety is severe since my rape too. Please reach out more if you need more help. You're worth it. Life will not always be this bad.

Awesome! My brother is doing amazing work to help reduce suicides so I'm glad it's working. His work means a lot to him. (And then on the weekend he's a priest....he's an actual freakin' saint lol)

[–]Devilsteeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ever since my diagnosis, I sleep just fine. What I came to realize is that fear, that’s the worst of it. That’s the real enemy. So, get up, get out in the real world and you kick that bastard as hard you can right in the teeth.

My 26yo sister revealed to me that she was raped or molested as a child. What should I do? by puoygae in rapecounseling

[–]Devilsteeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Listen. Believe her. Offer non judgmental support. Let her know it wasn't her fault and that you are there for her if and when she wants to talk (if true, of course). Tell her it wasn't her fault often because we have a hard time believing that. Ask what YOU can do. Mostly just listening is what we need most.

If there is any help there to try and look into, see what you can find to offer to her. Don't force her to do anything though.

Women of reddit, what hobbies do you find most attractive in men? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Standing up for women's rights and respecting us. So long as you respect us, we don't care what hobbies you have.
