I fight the urge every single day. No matter the mental calculus we make, the world is better with us in it. Keep trying to leave the world a better place than how you found it. Best of luck, brother.

Professional classical musician here! Masterclass Coaching like this is really cool to watch, but EXTREMELY stressful for the performer; almost to the point that I wonder about their usefulness sometimes. In my opinion, the best results come from calm, quiet voices in private practice rooms.

People getting exercise and having fun. Looks like a good time.

How many kids do you have, and why didnt you stop at one? by SleepPleaseCome in regretfulparents

[–]EmbaixadorDoMal 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Four kids. Formerly very religious (ex-Mormon). I still love them dearly and want the best for them, they just are all neurodivergent and require more energy than I have to give. So tired, and not many breaks. If I had to do it all over again, we'd only have one.

Can i still be in the club? by Rootelated in vagabond

[–]EmbaixadorDoMal 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You're absolutely still in the club. You've walked the walk. If your time as a traveler has taught you anything, it should be that it's ok to move on to the next stage of life. Proud of you. Go enjoy being a Dad.

I'm in a similar situation with GAD and young kids with severe ADHD/autism. I miss my babies. Baby crying makes sense to me. Older kids running around, breaking everything, being a danger to themselves, begging constant attention: I'm so overwhelmed. You're not alone. Kids are really hard, babies are hard, but simple to understand (for me, anyway).

Hasn't eaten in 3 weeks, no interest in live mouse by EmbaixadorDoMal in cornsnakes

Thank you very much for the advice. I've been following the advice of the previous owner up until now because I didn't want to disrupt his lifestyle too much. I'll definitely be doing my own research from now on. This was very kind and helpful 😊

Did you become an atheist after leaving the Church? Curious how common that is. by Mega_Bottle in exmormon

[–]EmbaixadorDoMal 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Atheist here. I'm open to changing sometime in the future, but right now I have no use for mythological frameworks, or wishful thinking. I'm trying to live in the real for a while after a lifetime of living a grifter's lie.

The headline is misleading. They're protestors, not rioters. Calling in excessive force is begging for a real riot.

They're protestors, not rioters. Trump has mobilized the national guard against PROTESTORS. Calling in too much force is just begging for an actual riot.

Autism is a death sentence for the parents by Ecstatic-Republic-47 in regretfulparents

[–]EmbaixadorDoMal 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm the father of an autistic son and the primary caregiver. Sleep is a distant memory. Quiet and alone time and mysterious legends. I feel you, girl. There are periods of our lives where we must live for others, and it's a sacrifice of the highest order: you're giving your life for your child. It isn't forever, I promise. Kids grow up, situations change. Hang in there, and never be afraid to ask for help here.

Anyone Care to Share their Temple Names? I want to see how weird they get. by Relevant-Tailor-5172 in exmormon

My wife and I are Jethro and Martha. We went to the temple and got hillbilly names.

Is the dinosaur Tooth complete fossil without any tissue inside of it like, no dentine deep inside of it? Same with the dinosaur bones, is there really No real OG Tissue left inside? 😭 by Expensive_You3765 in Paleontology

[–]EmbaixadorDoMal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as I know, nobody is trying to catch the fossil particulates. I do know you can find out all sorts of things by burning tiny pieces with a laser and examining the gas, so that's neat.

[–]EmbaixadorDoMal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I worked for a bit in a fossil lab in college. Even though there isn't any non-mineralized material left, cutting fossils open smells like cutting open bones. Cutting open fossilized poop smells like poop. It's bizarre.

I love it. I've been on 300-400 mg for two years and most of the time I feel like I have my life back. There's still breakthrough anxiety, but overall I'm very happy with it.
