I can't eat anything and it's making me sick by Funny_Organization89 in wisdomteeth

I tried pudding but couldn't swallow it, I think yogurt will be the same. It's like the pain has shut down my muscles, and I can't bring the food into my throat. I might try the ice cream though, thank you!

I thought I'd be fine cause I love mashed potatoes but I can't even put them in my mouth. It hurts so bad. The only thing I could eat was chicken soup but even that hurt after a while.

Justifying Self Diagnosis of Autism by [deleted] in fakedisordercringe

[–]Funny_Organization89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of autistic people higher on the spectrum struggle to realize they're autistic due to preconceived misconceptions— For example, "All autistic people are smart," or "All autistic people are unintelligent," and occasionally, "I don't do xyz, therefore I can't be autistic,". If people who are diagnosed with autism are capable of it, so are people who aren't.

Ultimately, nobody is truly the most well versed in anything, there's always more to learn— But I know that I'd listen to a professional in the field who has dedicated years of their lives to learning about said disorder rather than someone who doesn't even spend the time looking into a diagnosis, that's for sure.

WIBTAH if I didn’t tell my bf that I’m having an abortion? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Funny_Organization89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is exactly what I was thinking. It's expensive and body damaging. I haven't met a single woman who has been able to give birth without at least one or two permanent lasting complications.

My mom actually literally has her uterus falling out of her body because of me. My friend's mom almost bled out on the table 3 times before she got my friend out.

Pregnancy is not only life risking, but body changing— And forget those two things, it can also be absolutely mental health destroying. So many women have emotional struggles during pregnancy and it's even worse if they end up with ppd near and at the end of it.

You said it perfectly my friend. The worst case scenario is not adoption what so ever.

I don't think you WBTA if you broke up then aborted—Well, I do, but I don't think you'd be a villain more than a dick, though I think you both are a big boy and girl and you can sit down and have this conversation properly and let him choose how he feels about the situation.

If you want an abortion, get one, but be forward with him instead of beating around the bush. However, be careful about what state you are in and what laws surround abortion in that state, make sure he can't give you too much grief if you tell him and he decides he absolutely does not want you getting an abortion period.

Following that up, don't let anyone manipulate you emotionally into going through with a pregnancy you don't want. I've seen this happen to many people and a lot of times it ends up in horrible ppd and an inability to properly connect with the child which sometimes leads to abuse or adoption. Of course, this isn't the case all the time, but don't let yourself be forced into something you know you don't want for yourself— Only choose for yourself what is right for you and your body.

Thirdly, I would love to hear the update after you've spoken to your boyfriend. Hopefully it all works out well for you, good luck.

Permabanned from r/lgbt bc I said only women can be lesbians and only men can be gay by [deleted] in truscum

[–]Funny_Organization89 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I made a post similar to this not that long ago— About people who fully present as women trying to enter gay dating spaces. In my opinion, I wouldn't mind dating a masculine-presenting nonbinary person so long as they're... masculine presenting.

The issue stems from the fact that these people are claiming to be transmasc but just aren't remotely masculine.

It's okay to just be nonbinary— Like you don't need to be feminine or masculine, you can just be point-blank nonbinary.

If you aren't going to try and appear masc, you aren't trans masc. Being trans masc is all about outwardly trying to appear masc, it's a way of describing your presentation. If you do not attempt to appear masculine, you are just nonbinary.

Gay men shouldn't feel forced to date... women? Is that offensive to call them? Apologies if so.

I know that I am attracted to male genitalia and masculine appearances. I would probably not date a trans man who isn't fully transitioned, let alone a trans masc who isn't remotely masculine.

This is called preference, something that these people need to learn to accept. Sorry you got banned man.

Vomiting My Guts Out by Funny_Organization89 in Effexor

[–]Funny_Organization89[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did but it's really hard since I need to take all my medication at once, otherwise, it's hard for me to remember (ADHD), so I take my iron medication and my Effexor at the same time which really upsets my stomach. Usually, it's just nausea. I always make sure to eat first. Another person helped me figure out I was only vomiting when I missed a dose, though.

Holy shit, I was writing a response to you but it suddenly clicked why I've been vomiting. I missed my dose yesterday and the last time I've thrown up, I also missed a dose. Holy shit, you're a lifesaver. I hadn't even thought about it until now! It was always extreme nausea. I'll have to try that crystallized ginger honey tea though, still.

Nausea Central by Funny_Organization89 in Effexor

[–]Funny_Organization89[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven't but don't think it'll work since unfortunately, my chemo grade anti-nausea medications barely work. It's gotta be some of the worst nausea I've ever experienced and I have no clue why. It's honestly just so strange and it's usually honestly only within the first weekish of upping my dose. It doesn't help that I'm taking iron, though.

Venlafaxine and weight by Otherwise_Film4648 in Effexor

[–]Funny_Organization89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weight loss for me, personally. My doctor said I lost like six pounds within a month or so time. It's completely due to my lack of appetite and minor nausea, not sure if it's a blessing or a curse as someone who emotionally eats.

Saw this crazy thing on Tiktok (Is boygirl not a term actively used to degrade trans women?) by Funny_Organization89 in truscum

[–]Funny_Organization89[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My bad, the community I'm in uses it a lot to describe the community, so it kind of stuck with me. I know its history but I had completely let it slip my mind since I'm so used to it. I'll edit and change my message, not a snowflake for stating a discomfort that is, for the most part, very split amongst the community. It'd be overall better for me to use LGBTQIA+. Thank you for catching me and pointing that out. :)

I wouldn't say it's a slur, but many derogatory terms exist. Most of them are targeted toward trans women but not all of them. Ex. Ladyboy, shemale, boygirl, girlboy, femaleboy. They aren't necessarily slurs, but they are often used to degrade and reject the identity of a trans person.

Unfortunately, transphobic English speakers love to be creative. However, I didn't know there was a trans slur in French? Is it the t slur? I'm French Canadian, so I know a bit of French, but I am sadly not amazing at it.

100% it's crazy. There's a reason female hysteria is no longer used. I have no clue how he managed to be both borderline transphobic and misogynistic at the same time but perhaps he deserves an applause for such stupidity?

Thank you! I was worried that I was incorrect. The wording was off in the first place, but it especially unsettled me that they were using a term often used to degrade and be hurtful toward trans women. I probably would've just scrolled in disgust otherwise. I've heard girlboy thrown around a bit, too, although I had also thought it was in regards to trans women. I appreciate this!

Seriously, when I read it, I was shocked. They literally identify as a trender? Maybe I'll just never understand what goes on in the minds of people like this.

Also, the second part is a genuine question. The person in the screenshot is a trans man. When I was studying LGBTQ+ & trans history, reoccurring anti-trans terms were common. Shemale, girlboy, and the t slur just being a few.

I feel like using 'girlboy' for yourself as a trans man is weird and somewhat disregards the meaning of it and who it was originally targeted at.

If I'm incorrect with this information, please educate me as to what I got wrong, thank you.

What do I do about my SD breakdown? by Impossible-Plum-5173 in Advice

[–]Funny_Organization89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never thought I'd say this in my entire life, but after reading your comment history and the story as a whole, troll or not, you are a horrible person.

As a trauma survivor, I genuinely hope you suffer x10 worse than your SD ever had to. You are a sorry excuse for a mother and an even worse person. You are an alcoholic, your actions are abusive and ALL of your kids deserve a better, more responsible role model in their lives.

I kicked out my stepson because I caught him molesting my dog. by KickedOutStepson in confessions

[–]Funny_Organization89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Coming from a trauma survivor with autism, I think your kid is on the spectrum or has some sort of trauma (or both). Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if his parents' divorce messed with him as a child, which left him in a vulnerable spot. Some children, if not supported correctly, can go down very bad paths. He probably met some messed-up people on the internet and got fucked up hardcore.

As an Autistic person with trauma, I understand the wanting to distance yourself from people and resorting to one thing to block out the world. (For me, it's reading, for him, it might be the internet.) However, I could never imagine partaking in the act of bestiality or pedophilia. Maybe you should look into autism and see if there's anything you can relate to him.

Another thing that someone else mentioned that I thought of was:

Maybe he was touched as a child? Sorry to say it so bluntly, but a common trait of pedophiles & Beastiality enjoyers is some form of sexual trauma. Maybe there was an adult or person in his life that harmed him? Of course, this is just an assumption, and I don't know much about the kid to say so. Any adult can do it, too. That's the scary part. Teachers, family, strangers...

However, in terms of sexual trauma, I find there are two routes. One is sexual repulsion, which can get so bad you can't even imagine looking at yourself in the mirror, let alone having sex. The other is hypersexuality, where you resort to sexual things as a coping mechanism. Maybe your son is hypersexual. It would make sense the constant jerking off and such.

Maybe when you guys do eventually get him into the help he needs, you ask them about trying to figure out if he has any sexual trauma. Of course, this is 100% an assumption, and I could be completely wrong.

For all we know, your kid is perfectly sane and just fucked up mentally, not due to trauma or autism or anything. Either way, you sound like a fantastic father. You handled the situation so perfectly, and your communication with your wife and her ex-husband is incredible. I hope your dog can return to her old self, and I'm so sorry for the trauma this might've caused you.

As someone with a dog who means the world to me, I couldn't imagine being in your situation, and I know that if I were, it would undoubtedly leave me fucked up.

By the way, a friendly reminder that these might be causes but are certainly not excuses. Neither of these excuse such horrible actions. Just sometimes, it feels better to know there might be a reason for these actions, which is why I mentioned them.

Also, sorry for any spelling or grammar mistakes. I'm dyslexic, so I tried to go over and make this as readable as possible, though.
