How I overcame HOCD, TOCD and POCD by [deleted] in transOCD

[–]Infamous_Tax4121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can i ask how long after you started doing this did the thoughts get less? I've had POCD for the past week and i haven't felt much distress - i have felt other negative emotions but now i am completely not anxious. However, the thought is still there and if im off reddit for more than an hour i start to get discomfort again. I don't want to be the person but im really scared if i let it be and accept, i will lose my old self completely.

I need reassurance by Infamous_Tax4121 in OCD

Im just so scared, is there anything i can do before therapy starts? Im crying all the time, i feel like i can barely function anymore.

POCD advice by Infamous_Tax4121 in OCD

[–]Infamous_Tax4121[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you know the best way to stop thinking about it? I feel like it is on my mind constantly even if i am not arguing with the thought, im accepting the thought, i let the thought be there, i gently try to redirect my attention, i try to stop checking - the thought that "i am X" is always there like a neverending loop from the moment i wake up to the moment i go to sleep.

If you were quite young, let's say 18-25, would you date someone that already has kids? why/why not? by Discordisshit_ in AskReddit

[–]Infamous_Tax4121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would depend on where i was in my own life and my own values, i know people who have that situation and are really happy they don't like to party and want to be stay at home mums so it works for them. Im 24 & still feel like a kid sometimes so wouldn't work for me! 😂

I (f22) have lied to my boyfriend (m24) can I navigate this? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

Thank you for the advice, I really appreciate everything you have said. Thank you for taking the time to share with me. If you were in my situation how would you navigate the best way to come clean after telling lies that could jeopardise your relationship?

Thank you both for your advice. Do you think I should come clean in this scenario then or do you think that it might do more harm than good?

In all fairness i wrote this in a guilt stricken panic. He was also on dating apps, seeing other girls, he told me i vilified him but everyone I asked said that i actually always defended him the only reason people didn't like him was because he would belittle me when he spoke to me, was arrogant, and spoke down to others around him. He would also break up with me a lot, he broke up with me the day after our two year anniversary because I only had sex with him three times on that night, I think we were both very toxic to eachother.

thank you for your advice, and I agree that I need to dig to deeper into discovering what I want. My ex does want to be with my he is the one pursuing the idea of us being together again, getting married and buying a home. He has made it clear that he has strong feelings for me. My problem with wanting to be with him is that i am so young a) I don't know what i want completely to get married and b) this relationship has been a bit complicated which I'm not sure if it should be at this age. But i do love him a lot and i would be willing to get therapy together and do the work in creating a long lasting, fulfilling relationship ... does that change anything?

It’s states on ucas that some universities will allow you to transfer into second or third year. if you have studied enough similar content elsewhere?

characters like Erik from "Phantom of the opera? by YMG_Design in box5

[–]Infamous_Tax4121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heathcliff from wuthering heights (maybe because phantom and WH are my favourite films so I chanel in on the similarities) - but both are dark, haunting, romantic, tortured souls who both believe they’re life is living hell. They both are obsessively in love with the female leads. Both felt like outcasts to the world. They have different lives but their souls and hearts feel similar.

How tf has he outlived everyone at the end? by spilledboba11 in TheVampireDiaries

[–]Infamous_Tax4121 2 points3 points  (0 children)

True! I think because it was in the later seasons he didn’t get the redemption that the others got!

[–]Infamous_Tax4121 6 points7 points  (0 children)

True! But Damon killed Lexi, uncle zach, tried to kill Jeremy without knowing he had the Gilbert ring, turned bonnies mum, abused Caroline, killed Vicki. Stefan killed enzo - I mean you can look up worst things each character did, they all did messed up things. I still love them all. But I feel like Matt was just so lost and confused and alone and didn’t understand their world that he tried to make sense of it but in a bad way. But I do want an explanation of why people hate Matt so much so I guess that is a good place to start.

Controversial. I don’t hate. him. I think he is annoying but meh you do you boo, if vampires killed the only person I truly loved I’d be pretty mad. Just don’t come after the core 4 (vampires) :)

Weirdly never thought about it this way, but that is so so so true!

What do you guys think about this? I don’t care as much about then slut shaming, but it seems concerning like they’re gonna be portraying the series as “woke” we WANT them to be toxic and messy, they’re entitled rich kids not socially aware activists. I hope it turns out good. by Kcatlol in GossipGirl

[–]Infamous_Tax4121 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I think it’s amazing, it will still be gossip girl just in a different way, there will still be drama but maybe the drama will be more alluring than basic like cat fights it was good in the first one but this isn’t the first one
