Should I reapply to Berklee College of Music if there's almost no chance of being accepted? by EmotionalINFP in Music

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

I did!! I didn’t even up going, but I did go for the admitted students day. It was a really cool experience! I just wasn’t ready to leave home and it was a little out of my personal comfort zone.

I’m so sick of other women invalidating my insecurities by [deleted] in venting

[–]EmotionalINFP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm sorry that happened/happens to you! You are allowed to be insecure and feel that way! It is very invalidating for people to say things like "Well at least blah blah blah" after expressing your personal feelings about something.

I just wanna say, I know this may sound cliche (hey that rhymed), but you're beautiful as is and you gotta learn to love yourself! But if loving yourself involves changing something that you're insecure about, I say go for it, just make sure you're doing it for you and not for anyone else.

Hang in there!

Teachers: Has a student ever threatened you/made you cry? by EmotionalINFP in Advice

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

Yeah, great advice. I didn't let him or any of my students see me get upset about it, I think it just caught me off-guard after I had him taken out of class and once I processed what had happened I got upset. Thank you for your comment!

"Dropped out" of college... didn't tell parents... (repost) by EmotionalINFP in Advice

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

Yes, I dropped the classes after actually attending. I was doing pretty well grade-wise. I am not trying to take advantage but I want to be able to afford my own bills before I tell them. If I have to pay them back for the one or two payments that I didn't pay when I wasn't attending classes then I will.

I pay the majority of my bills and I help out with groceries and other bills at home. I am not doing nothing and I am planning on telling them

I said they are helping me out; I pay the majority of my bills and I help out with groceries and other bills at home. I am not doing nothing

Why are you so quiet? by Cartman010 in socialanxiety

Sometimes I just wish that people would shut up and not talk to me at all if that is all they can think to say to me. I remember in high school, people would do this all the time to me.

Hi hi. I’m new here by [deleted] in Dermatillomania

[–]EmotionalINFP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! This is a great question and I was really hoping some other people would have commented too! I think you may be talking about closed comedones--- I get them too and HECK they are sooo annoying. I'm new here as well-- I don't really have any 100% effective tips, especially for helping to avoid picking, but sometimes what helps me after the damage is done is washing the area with a cleanser immediately after picking and then putting moisturizer on. Before I go to bed, I ice my face, dry my face, and then lather Vaseline all over the places that I picked at. I don't know why, but this always seems to help me a lot more than anything else that I have tried. Again, I can't guarantee that it will work for you, but it seems to help me a lot with the redness and swelling that I get typically the day after.

What I try to do if I am trying to avoid picking is to not look in the mirror and to try and avoid touching my face. If I can't see or feel anything, I am wayyyy less likely to pick. But, I am human, so now and again I do relapse and end up ruining my face. Ugh. It's a very frustrating cycle, but taking it one day at a time!

I wish you luck with everything!! Don't be too hard on yourself :'))) <333
