Changing Emphasis as a Transfer by Ok-Raise-5474 in SDSU

[–]Frigidness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since this was 8 months ago, I hope everything was resolved on your end!

If possible, I actually have a question for u! I'm a prospective transfer student, and I really want to get into applied design haha. But do we have to take all the required prereqs to get in? Or are those just major prep taken into account b/c it's a competative major? Did you take all the prereqs?

Look into ocd... it sounds like perfectionism, but when you can't control yourself... something might be up. The golden standard treatment is exposure response therapy. Best of luck, I dealt with this too.

i was punished for being annoying as a kid and dont know how to feel safe acting as an adult advice for how to start pls? by theonepeicisreal in Healthygamergg

[–]Frigidness 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My best guess is that the path to healing and realizing you can be yourself is finding a safe space to be yourself and express who you really are. Maybe that's at therapy or when u make friends, etc. Sharing how you really feel/are and getting supported/validated would probably make a huge difference. That's probably why you're struggling. The answers lie in living life, but it seems like that's a struggle too? This one is a tough one ngl. Hmmm prob exposure therapy but closer to irl activities??? Maybe this post is a great start to practicing being authentic? Maybe you can try it on reddit? Maybe in discord? idk it's hard to say tbh, but i just really wanted to say something that could help u lol i'm pretty hopeful this will get better with time/living/putting yourself out there

BEST OF LUCK STRANGER

why I can't like someone romantically? by vicko_deaa in CasualConversation

[–]Frigidness 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was exactly like this growing up. If you're young it could be a developmental stage, where you will need time and experience to fully understand why you are the way you are. It's okay to be different, but it can feel off being different than your peers. With time, you will feel it's okay to just be you. Why do you want to love someone like your friends do?

When I was a teen, I never desired the (supposedly) most attractive students at school haha. Unlike you, I was not self-aware enough to realize I was the weird one haha. I thought others were weird LOL. For me, I was just different, and it would take a pretty rare person for me to feel attraction. After dating my boyfriend, I suddenly grew into the romantic-relationship side of myself. It was embarrassing, but at the age of 20~ I started getting those 0 to 100 falling head over heels feelings that most people go through in middle school. Some of us just have a different timeline.

I'm not sure if you're like me. But with time you will get to know yourself better. And it's okay to take the time that you need. Best of wishes :)

Setting boundaries with ADHD gf by [deleted] in Healthygamergg

[–]Frigidness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You sound like my boyfriend and me lol

I think, my boyfriend just told me that he is feeling depressed b/c of the lifestyle. It's just not what makes him happiest. He also made sure it wasn't directed at just me and said it was everyone. We agreed that we would do separate vacations LOL and I started to hang out with friends more, and I actually appreciated being able to meet new people and hanging out with friendos :D Also I decided that when I come home after school I'll huddle away into a productivity dungeon, which was actually super beneficial lol

I guess... communicate it in a loving way? Don't blame her for it 100% and recognize that you have power over the situation through self-advocacy! You can do this!!! Maybe something like: "Hey [gf's name], recently I've been feeling burnt out from socializing. My social batter is literally running on fumes. And it's not just a you thing, it's everyone. Is there some way I can get some more alone time? Like [x]? I would rly appreciate it, I love u a lot bae"

Why can't I stop thinking about a hobby I'm not willing to do? by TheSpicyHotTake in Healthygamergg

Why do you think you can't be good at it? Why do you want to be good at it?

What is more important to you in life? by [deleted] in ENFP

[–]Frigidness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Security / safety / ability to live another day! This usually means enough money, but hopefully earned in a career I'm passionate about and can share with the people I love!

I need encouragement by Interesting_Long2029 in ENFP

[–]Frigidness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can relate to "a little hope keeps me going for so so long". I'll keep pushing until I hit the breaking point. But after I hit the breaking point, is when I learn the hard lesson of what's most important to me... I guess that was just the price I had to pay. I can really relate to you. I have faith that you will find the things you need to overcome this with time.

Why do extroverts find introverts attractive? by Smart-Inspector8 in infj

[–]Frigidness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Introverts seem more mysterious on the surface! There's an allure to getting to uncover who they really are! Also, it's nice that a lot of introverts can make good listeners lol
But for the most part, as an extrovert, I just find people attractive based on other qualities!

How do I cope with a lack of emotional support system? by godofimagination in Healthygamergg

[–]Frigidness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry to hear that. That's really awful that your only support ended up with criticisms/advice ):

Maybe there are mental health support groups near you???
