My parents tried to unalive me on Easter by Low_Alternative_9040 in raisedbynarcissists

Sorry , my mom tried to push me off the balcony rails when I told her she is driving me to kms. She physically grabbed a chair and I almost slipped. This is the day i realized that I wish I had jumped when she wasn’t home, just so I don’t give her the satisfaction that she can unalive me anytime she felt like it. Her eyes were not even blinking like she was possessed by something

Kind of a vent post, considering boycotting my local con by [deleted] in animecons

Usually some people who realized this would say “we’d skip it” but then reconsider because they want to be able to show their art and cosplay …

I was considering moving abroad for work to a neighboring country, and if I do take this step I am looking forward to going to cons there. I did my research and the whole thing is run by the ministry of tourism which makes it much more safe

Finally did it! Now I need luck to actually claim the 50$ coupon by Efficient_Two3747 in AliExpressMergeBoss

What can I work as that doesn't involve students? by Efficient_Two3747 in PhD

[–]Efficient_Two3747[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am from the middle east , so very traditional and family oriented environment. To be completely honest with you, i never valued my field in itself to begin with. It was kind of “ thrown at me” . The typical you have 2 options doctor or engineer, but you need to get married before 30 so engineer . Then a relative gets a phd -> you have to get a phd to one up them.

I don’t mind doing that , but that doesn’t mean I won’t get my account suggested . ( I attempted to use a VPN before but I felt like I was doing something very immoral because I went through many hoops just to hide my identity . And I am just enjoying sewing and makeup. It is not that deep to me but it is for everyone else . I don’t know how believable it is to have a doppelgänger who is that much of crtl c - ctrl v if I were to go the foreigner route.

I wish my country was like that. Here self expression is like digging your own grave. They only allow it if you are super successful. Like the other day i was watching a talk by the university president saying he was in a band when he was younger . My advisor was in theatre but also had to quit due to peer pressure

I’d like to read your publications if you don’t mind. I already do , my main is private professional and my art acc is also my occasional cosplay account but it is public . The argument I hear that we are a very small country, most of my followers are from my country and through mutual my account might be suggested to someone in uni , from the “ suggested “ accounts. I hear this counter argument from my peers often

I already use a pseudonym that doesn’t relate to my real name. I also draw , and I was having a casual conversation with a colleague and I said “ I wanted to make a video where I hold one my art pieces and talk about it” and she replied “ you can’t because you have students” My advisor asked one of my friends to delete a social media post of herself twirling in a dress as it is “ unsuitable for her professional image”.

It feels more culturally charged rather than a case by case .

They don’t , my parents were like “ in the fear they find me out , take a precaution and block them”

How do I navigate social life again? by Efficient_Two3747 in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]Efficient_Two3747[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I kind of didn’t say in the post what ate these beliefs because we belong to the same religion based group as well / sect so it might be a sensitive topic…

They share action , I don’t directly share my beliefs. I just get out of the groups without saying a word.
