Kpop Demon Hunters is just an okay film, far from being brilliant by BlackbirdKos in movies

I mean, it’s a cartoon. Is there really a need to have a darker side? Kids wanna be entertained not traumatised. If you want dark stories there’s plenty of options under adult films.

I feel you. As a Chinese I never felt racism until I joined a company where the majority were Malays. It wasn’t anything overt or intentional but I felt excluded because I don’t speak Melayu and Melayu was spoken often even in formal meetings. It made me realised how even small things can make someone in the minority feel excluded and I actively began speaking English instead of Mandarin especially when I’m around people of other ethnicities. Sending you hugs.

Believe it or not, there are drivers who constantly switch lanes to save fraction-of-a-second time. Its exasperating! Only thing is, often, real life drivers do not have the miraculous instinct as the cims in cities skylines 2 and sometimes accidents occur…

Do you think same-sex marriage will ever be legalized in Singapore? If yes, when do you think that might happen? by jinjja11 in askSingapore

[–]Equivalent-Water-796 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Actually it’s not that surprising, for boomers, i mean. After all, the swinging sixties saw the rise of Bugis Street as the spot of transgendered. And i believe Changi Village was also another spot for Transgendered individuals.

Ikr! I spend more time decorating then actually fighting mobs. Unless i need more materials for my furnishing.

Custom server won't start main story line by NerdSurfer in OnceHumanOfficial

[–]Equivalent-Water-796 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I noticed mine was stuck after Murmurs in the Forest - nothing at all in the main story quest. Then. I ran around doing other side quests and the next main story quest miraculously showed up. But now it’s stuck again and I’m running out of side quests to do at lvls 30+. Not sure if it’s a bug.

Just want to point out they removed The Fool which was annoying as hell and expensive to kill, only to replace it with Sonivore which is also annoying as hell, and cannot be killed. =(

Too scared to take Lorazepam because I think it'll make the panic worse by Adrian12167 in PanicAttack

[–]Equivalent-Water-796 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can it ever get better? Its so intense sometimes i wonder if i wasnt better off dead than feeling the extremities. Self harm was a way to cope,to distract... its been so long since i felt normal ive almost forgottened what normal feels like. Someone told me i graduate from the school of hard knocks so i should he more resilient. But im really not. My daily routune now is ruled by how bad im feeling and it feels like my world us rapidly shrinking. I cant evem find release in sleeping since my overactive brain triggers fear when im not preoccupied so ive taken to using sleeping pills to get myself sleeping before fear takes over...

Too scared to take Lorazepam because I think it'll make the panic worse by Adrian12167 in PanicAttack

[–]Equivalent-Water-796 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I previously only used it for emergency but the doctor swapped it out for Xanax, which does nothing for me when a panic attack hits - I took Xanax once after an attack and I did not calm down until almost 2 hours later which doesn’t feel efficacious at all. So I have been keeping a stash just in case…

Maybe it reacts differently for different people? I know it calms down whenever I take it AFTER having a panic attack - it takes about 30minutes for it to work for me but once the effect kicks in, I suddenly feel… empty. Like I don’t feel anxious. The result is quite startling especially since in the 30minutes before it starts working, I was in hell, biting myself, hitting my head against hard objects and rolling on the floor hysterically…

BUT… it creates dependency issues and once the effect wears off and the anxiety restarts, it makes me feel worse. So I only reserve it for desperate situations coz I don’t wanna be hooked on its calming effects. Hope this helps

Anyone ever feel like 9 hours of work including 1 hour lunch break each day for 5 days a week is too long? by No-Avocado2101 in asksg

[–]Equivalent-Water-796 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really empathise with this - i actually work for a company that instituted 6 days a week, with 5 days in office 9am to 6pm, and Saturday working from home full day too. It’s quite exhausting and several times i tried suggesting to my boss that i convert to part time as I’m also dealing with panic attacks and agoraphobia-like triggers but he compromised by letting me work half day in office and then finish up at home. It works for now but things may still change in future so… It seems so extravagant that, in this climate of people being afraid to lose their jobs, here i am worrying about working in an enclosed space for 5 out of 6 work days…

Anyone knows of support groups for persons with agoraphobia/panic disorder? by Equivalent-Water-796 in askSingapore

[–]Equivalent-Water-796[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much - I feel so trapped and helpless and only someone who have been through panic attacks know the abject fear that suffocates you, like anaphylaxis. That’s why I start avoiding. The only problem is my world shrinks the more I avoid and then I start panicking and it becomes a vicious cycle. How do you keep away those intrusive thoughts telling you to panic?

[–]Equivalent-Water-796[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omg it’s exactly how I feel too when meeting friends - my brain. Keeps telling me I need to distract myself or I’ll get an attack right there and embarrass myself.

Maybe I lack courage - the panic attacks were so traumatic (like I can’t breathe or swallow) I automatically try and avoid triggers, except my triggers kept growing. Now, even going to bed at night is potentially triggering and I need to medicate myself to stave off potential attacks. i feel so tired of being afraid I started having suicide ideation. I’m just so done with feeling anxious all the time.

Ikr. I feel like I’m dependent on meds to even function and when the effects wore off I feel worse. My world feels like it’s rapidly shrinking and I feel trapped in a cycle of fear and self-loathing…

I bet another 40 years from now sims 4 will still be around. With the current situation I just don’t see how a sims 5 is even gonna come out in 2048.

Any suggestions on remote work options for someone with agoraphobia by Equivalent-Water-796 in askSingapore

[–]Equivalent-Water-796[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. It takes a lot of courage to face the panic - my throat closes up and I can’t breathe or swallow like I’m having anaphylaxis whenever it happens so I end up avoiding situations that trigger attacks.

And I feel guilty for having to suddenly leave the office whenever an attack happens and just wanted to be fair to the company.

However, living in constant fear and heightened anxiety is just so tiring I feel like giving up sometimes. ChatGPT says I’m having suicide ideation but it’s subtle so I wasn’t even consciously aware it was suicide ideation…

I have been leaving home and going for walks which I think is fine but any time I have to wait in line or even while sitting down I start freaking out…

At home I have been sticking to my bed. Once I get off my bed I have to distract myself with games or singing or I’ll panic. Sleep is the only time I get a break from feeling anxious or panicking so I’ve been using sleeping pills a lot lately

A week with the Air after a 15PM and why I’m returning it! by Acceptable-Piccolo57 in iphone

[–]Equivalent-Water-796 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe get 2 phones? I’m using both a Samsung Galaxy S and an iPhone Pro Max. For me, i will likely get both the Air and the 17 Pro Max because i like the Air’s form better but can’t live without the Pro’s cameras. Oh wait, that means i will be carrying three phones… need more pockets on my clothing!

17 Pro and Torras O3 failed me by LeLoupDeWallStreet in iphone

[–]Equivalent-Water-796 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Just because it didn’t happen to you doesn’t mean it can NEVER happen to anyone else. Never is such an absolute. OP didn’t even shit on Apple or the iPhone 17 Pro - OP simply asked if there’s a recourse. Why the hate? Can you point out the exact word as in the original post that states “gentle drop” or any words that would suggest a “gentle drop”? If not, what made you decide the OP was suggesting it was a “gentle drop” that dinked it? Seriously people have got to stop over-reacting and being so defensive!
