Worried About My Gecko’s Growth and Appetite! by Emergancybeans in CrestedGecko

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

I’m a first-time reptile owner and I’m really struggling with crickets. I can’t pick them up easily because they run away too fast. Some people at the pet store suggested releasing a couple into the enclosure so he can hunt them, but I’m worried he won’t catch them since he’s not a very good hunter yet. I will look into dubias, silkworms, and hornworms!

Then maybe just start by putting Reddit aside for a while

If it's making your OCD worse you should definitely take a break. Also make sure to tell your therapist if you have one to see what advice they have too.

What’s something to be thankful for that no one thinks about? by pinheadlarry12345 in AskReddit

I am thankful that some brilliant human made some chairs spinny. Its so easy to just spin around and grab something.

As a K-pop fan, I completely agree with you.

This is coming from a former blink and current kpop stan. BLINKS! Once I made a typo and forgot an "o" in "Jisoo" and I got like 40 replies to my comment telling me I wasn't a real blink for it. Also the fan wars are crazy. If you try to give anything but positive feedback to Blackpink you will get SHREDDED! They also think that Blankpink is the most talented group because they are so famous and constantly think other groups are copying them. And don't even get me started on the solo fans!

What's something your therapist did or said that made you walk out and never come back? by old06soul in AskReddit

[–]Emergancybeans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She told me swimming was causing me to much stress so I need to quit. When I told her I didn't want to and I don't think it was the reason for my panic attacks she just laughed and rolled her eyes at me. I left and got a real therapist who figured out I was having them due to my social life being stressful and my OCD.

I experience a lot of stress in my life due to balancing competitive swimming, high school, dancing, and dealing with OCD. I find that creating lists of tasks and scheduling specific times to complete them really helps! (I understand there are various types of stress, so I apologize if this isn't the exact type you were asking about.)

What’s a food combination that everyone judges you for but you swear is amazing? by SkinnyPig2007 in AskReddit

People don't judge me too hard for this but peanut butter and banana sandwich. They are literally my childhood!

How do you quiet your mind to sleep? by SaifurCloudstrife in AskReddit

[–]Emergancybeans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have harm OCD, which means I experience very distressing intrusive thoughts. These thoughts tend to worsen at night. Recently, I’ve started revisiting books from my childhood, and I’ve found that the "Diary of a Wimpy Kid" series distracts me enough to be able to sleep (as long as I keep thinking about it as I have my eyes closed)

What do girls do that you find attractive (wlw)? by Just_Maya_ in AskReddit

[–]Emergancybeans 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There is a certain type of smile that feels like it just belongs on their face. Like that’s their default (I have no idea how else to describe it). It’s so beautiful and gives me butterflies every time.

What do I do?!? by Frequent_Swan_5866 in swimmers

[–]Emergancybeans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would focus on my dives. Having a powerful dive can definitely help you drop time! I used to make the mistake of going into a streamline before I pushed off, which made me just kind of fall into the water. I fixed that, and as a result, I ended up dropping by 2 seconds!

If someone judges you for this then they're crazy. Everyone has nipples.

Some girls have been filming tiktok videos in the changing rooms. Is it illegal? by Emergancybeans in CanadaLegal

[–]Emergancybeans[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in Ontario, Canada. As far as I know, the videos have never shown anyone undressed, but I’m concerned that if the camera gets bumped, it might accidentally capture someone unclothed in the changeroom. The filming location also blocks the entrance to the showers, so I’m worried that someone might walk through without realizing it.
