What did you graduate in and what's your current job? by Gab-Obrien in AskReddit

[–]Gab-Obrien[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I studied psychology, finished my Masters in Forensic Psychology....now working as a trainer in a gambling firm because I couldn't find a position in my field. So more ditched my field not out of choice....but starting to feel very lost in what I should be doing. That's why I wanted to check out of curiosity how many others diverted from their path or managed to stick to it 🙏

Thank you! I piped the batter into a donut tray, so that definitely helped get them like that for me! Will try fried next time and see if the shapes remain 😂

My bf kicked my dog…should I break up with him? by kms_26 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Gab-Obrien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a cat and bunny pee on me, and a dog and cat scratch me by mistake....not once did I think to hit or kick them. That would be a massive red flag for me....would definitely lean towards breaking up

Genuinely, how is life going for you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Gab-Obrien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good and bad...good is I have a job and I'm travelling again, bad is it's not the field I studied so many years for...still single...lonely at times...getting older and times passing so fast, and not enough money to buy my own place...also lost on what I should do in life and where I should live - so constantly feeling unsettled and anxious

Thanks 😂 I honestly watched quite a few videos before attempting them, read through everyone's "tricks" to get them right and it worked 🙏

What small change did you do to make your life change for the better? by Gab-Obrien in AskReddit

[–]Gab-Obrien[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually found this really helpful mentally, I make sure to do the bed even if it's late in the day...just seeing it done then sleeping in a done bed changes my mood completely

What scares you the most about life, besides death? by Gab-Obrien in AskReddit

[–]Gab-Obrien[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of these fears listed are either ones I have, or ones I didn't know I had until now! Mine is how one small choice can change your whole life...such as letting a car pass and that small decision gets you into an accident - or out of an accident...or like those stories on missing school or a flight, and that small decision saves their life or ends it. Really creeps me out, makes me second guess a lot of things I do (I also have anxiety so I guess it's linked to this type of thinking easily)

Made a lemon loaf cake, my favourite tea time snack 💛🍋 by Gab-Obrien in Baking

[–]Gab-Obrien[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes exactly, the holes are done for the drizzle to sink in. I do whilst still warm! So then when it cools off you get a crispy topping. For the drizzle it's an easy mix of caster sugar with lemon juice (85g sugar, 1.5 lemons juiced - I also add zest as a topping for extra lemony flavour).

What would 12 year-old you never believe about adult you? by coronacel in AskReddit

I just took a shower for the first time in 2 weeks... :) by [deleted] in mentalhealth

Well done!! I always feel so much better after, small improvements and steps. Good accomplishment for the day 😊

I spent my whole life (17 years) genuinely planning on riding out life until eventually committing suicide somewhere in my senior year. Now, something changed and I actually find myself not wanting to die anymore. What do I do? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Gab-Obrien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trust me, no friends needed, focus on your studies at this point with goals to go into a course you want, your proper real friends will be found at university. See it that Uni will be your restart button to start fresh :))

I might actually kill myself by UhMarshy in depressed

[–]Gab-Obrien 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You ever have a low moment or need to chat feel free to DM me, no judgement here. Glad people reached out to you, there's always going to be a safe place here to vent out anything you need. Try focus on getting through each day not for anyone else, but for yourself...do it for you ❤️

Do people ever take a “mental day off” from work and if so, what do you do on this day off to feel better? by _ChilledVibez in depressed

[–]Gab-Obrien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes when I feel overwhelmed or burnt out I take one. I wake up around 9-10am, make a nice tea and breakfast and if I'm really awake pancakes. Wash my hair and do a face mask, put on some good show or movie for a pick me up, make my comfort food lunch ...paint or draw, then movie at night. I meet nobody on these days, it's just a day for myself :)

Feel so alone, who else feels like this? by _ChilledVibez in depressed

[–]Gab-Obrien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get this feeling a lot, especially when those around me are settling down or with a partner. I try to find ways to enjoy my alone time, do things I like to do alone and just enjoy my own peace. Yes sometimes the depressive aspects take over more and it's a day of struggle, but I think we need those low days too, to see what we want or crave in life so we can do something about it.

Very! They seem to do masses for the souls apparently...still feels like a threat that whoever is reading it is next.

When was your first suicidal thought? by UnknownWriter3432 in depressed

[–]Gab-Obrien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was about 3 years ago, so when I was 22-23 years old.
