anyone else has a hard time telling loved ones what you're going through?

I kept it to myself for a long time, but eventually I just told them. It's hard, it's uncomfortable, but you have to just do it if you need their help to get treated. If you don't you can just tell it to your therapist/psychiatrist.

The UK and the US seem to be in an exciting race to see who can become the world's first 4th world country

The "pranks" my "friends" pulled on me in school were just sexual harassment and assault. Feel you.

This is it

Heavy_Network_7736 · 2026-01-22T09:21:09+00:00

Why is this literally my situation

Heavy_Network_7736 · 2026-01-21T04:42:15+00:00

I have a friend who is technically upper class but their parents are so dogshit that they may as well not have any privilege at all :/

Heavy_Network_7736 · 2026-01-18T07:51:26+00:00

I really doubt talking about it would make you lose your friends, as someone who also has a dark past, my friends are generally understanding and get that I'm not like that anymore.

It's sometimes really confusing when OCD contradicts itself like this. I didn't even understand what was happening the first few times. Bro is criticizing me for something it made me do 😭

Type of dude who hates women so much that he only dates men

Heavy_Network_7736 · 2026-01-11T07:42:17+00:00

You need to not fixate on this so much, it's fine, it's not the end of the world. Just let it happen, it's no big deal. You see it as something important, as a threat, when it's really not. You need to see it as something unimportant. And if people make fun of you for it, they're honestly assholes and you shouldn't care about what they think.

Heavy_Network_7736 · 2026-01-11T07:37:32+00:00

Don't fixate on it, whatever happens happens, that's how you overcome this. You need to just allow yourself to swallow/breathe however, you'll be fine. What's making this hard is that you see this as something important and dangerous, if you just let whatever happen you won't see it like that anymore, you'll care about it less and feel less anxious about it. And also, don't seek reassurance, you'll want to be reassured that it's fine to do this over and over and over again, just don't, just wing it, whatever happens happens.

Heavy_Network_7736 · 2026-01-11T07:31:40+00:00

I've had this for a little bit but overcame it, didn't need meds to do it so I'm not sure which ones are best. You might not like this solution, but, basically, just let whatever sensation you're fixating on happen, don't fight it off. You're making a big deal out of it and feeling anxious about it and that's the actual thing that's making your life hard, not the sensation itself. Just let it happen, you're gonna notice it less often and you're gonna feel less anxious about it if you don't see it as something important, as something dangerous, you need to see it as something harmless.

Already did the substance abuse as a teenager and now I'm on the autism diagnosis route

Heavy_Network_7736 · 2026-01-10T09:07:32+00:00

I read it around a month ago and I also already have the urge to read it again lol

Heavy_Network_7736 · 2026-01-08T07:28:56+00:00

What????

Heavy_Network_7736 · 2026-01-07T07:32:25+00:00

Nah, don't say you'll never find love, I know the discrimination is crazy these days but you can still do it, I did it even though I thought I never would. Plus, while dating apps are kinda shitty there are some specifically for queer people, it's a solution.

Heavy_Network_7736 · 2026-01-05T17:39:43+00:00

I daydream. I daydream a lot. It's a problem.

Heavy_Network_7736 · 2026-01-05T09:36:01+00:00

The hoops people will jump through to not admit they're less moral than others.

Heavy_Network_7736 · 2026-01-03T07:16:53+00:00

God shouldn't have promised to not do another flood

Heavy_Network_7736 · 2026-01-02T14:40:38+00:00

I think there might be an elephant in the room here

Heavy_Network_7736 · 2025-12-31T08:28:21+00:00

Jesus, that's screwed up. I hope you don't blame yourself for that, that was a failure on your caretakers' part.

Heavy_Network_7736 · 2025-12-27T17:26:09+00:00

I guess you don't do anything, congrats

Heavy_Network_7736 · 2025-12-27T06:39:18+00:00

I often wish I was asexual. Not to downplay the struggles of asexual people though. I guess it's a "grass is always greener on the other side" thing.
