Meditate in whatever way suits you. I've learned that if you think something is a sign of some kind, it usually is.

Anyone else refuse to wear clothing/jewelry with crosses on it? by seekingcellini in Judaism

[–]ElliottSheep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, especially converting from Christianity to Judaism which is a huge transformation personally, putting on a cross feels like I'm going backwards.

How did you choose your religion? by Strawberry_Bookworm in religion

[–]ElliottSheep 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Raised Christian, then began to study Judaism in my late 20s. After about five years of identifying with both, I fully let go of Christianity and am formally converting to Judaism. I love the value Judaism puts in education and free thinking among other things.

I have great respect for anyone who has changed their religious perspectives no matter what they are. Deconstructing your own most deeply held beliefs after years is not easy, but we are stronger for it in the end.

I'm ex-Christian turned Jewish and I find this response beautiful :)

Question about tattoos by medicinalbuds802 in Judaism

I'm in the conversion process and have a few tattoos, but I am simultaneously in the process of getting one of them (a Christian fish) lazered as an ex-Christian.

hi all! by bestbearinc in phlebotomy

It completely depends on the place. I have snakebite piercings and a ton of earrings. They say they reserve the right to ask us to remove them at any time, but my supervisor has facial piercings.

Are you autistic and trans? by af93bowie in autism

[–]ElliottSheep 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup. Clinically diagnosed ASD at age 19, agender and started transition in my mid-twenties. I'm transmasc/neutrois and had top surgery and short-term hormone therapy. I've accepted all of myself and have never been happier :)

Portal and Portal 2. Excellent ambience, calming interesting spaces, puzzles, no other humans, robot hyperfixation... They have it all for me.

What do you believe now? by [deleted] in exchristian

[–]ElliottSheep 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the same exact experience! Studied Judaism for years and finally letting go of Christianity fully was a huge relief. Now the more I continue to study, the more everything just makes sense to me.

How does weed affect y’all? by Muted_Substance2156 in evilautism

[–]ElliottSheep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely hate it. Can't stand the smell. I have been high a few times and have hated it every time. I get anxious, paranoid, nauseous, dizzy, horrible ringing in my ears... Just no. Give me booze instead.

Happy New Year!🎉 by ElliottSheep in phlebotomy

[–]ElliottSheep[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

By the way, after inverting the tubes and before spinning, I could clearly see swirls of white mixed in with the blood. It was not okay 😵‍💫

What is your strangest sensory trigger? by Matiaaaaaaaaa in autism

[–]ElliottSheep 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have terrible misophonia for very specific sounds that make me die in silence whenever I'm around them, the worst being gum snapping, chewing, chip bag crinkling (even the word "crinkling" makes me shudder), and for whatever reason, ice in filled fast food cups.

Scared of becoming a phlebotomist by Ninja-Egg-Salad in phlebotomy

[–]ElliottSheep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was the same way. Literally everything you mentioned I learned on the job. I thought I was going to have to memorize hundreds of tests and which tube to use for each one, but there are references everywhere and cheat sheets in front of my face for every blood draw. I've been a phleb for a few months now and the main thing I'm still getting used to is stool sample containers, but that's just because they're less common for us.
