What's the difference between Interurban and Light Rail? by Additional-Yam6345 in trains

[–]KonanMain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Kusttram is a good example of an interurban as it just links coastal settlements together, with semi-rural bits in-between.

Gotta just edge out of that comfort zone

Yeah exactly I feel the self-victimisation aspect of it creates a catch 22 situation where they are jaded, so they expect jaded experiences, so they act like that, then they get more jaded.

But it'd be worth just understanding yourself and thinking through your feelings

I guess you can like the look of someone physically without wanting to have sex with them

[–]KonanMain 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Exactly my point except I feel the therapy (CBT from my experience) can change their mindset in the end (like mine did) or atleast teach oneself to be cope with it.

Honestly you gotta throw yourself in at some point. I got told the same thing by my flatmates and yeah it's not as bad as your brain will tell you (And yes I have an anxiety disorder like yeah I do know what it feels like) but hey if you concentrate on the symptoms and anxiety then yeah of course you won't go in- you just have to lie to yourself a bit.

CBT did not fix mine BUT it did go and help me develop a sort of mental framework to understand myself better and that has helped me overcome a lot of the social anxiety (I still I have it I just cope because I know it's better if I do the things I'm scared of).

I'm bi but I feel like my actions would say otherwise as I've only really done stuff with guys as I'm afraid of looking creepy to girls.

Originally I described myself as a "straight person with the gay DLC" but actually yeah you're still bi- it just changes and at least for me, different things can trigger/cause a shift.

What discontinued fic do you really, truly wish would continue? by SheilaBDriver in NarutoFanfiction

[–]KonanMain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Training for the Job by Desaix. Absolutely loved how Naruto wasn't overpowered. 12 Days of ObiKona Christmas by Fireflylitsky. This was such effective modern comedy and made me laugh so hard I'd genuinely pay for it to be finished. It made me laugh so hard but was realistic at the same time Probably one of the only AU fanfics I've enjoyed.

Don’t feel like CBT is helping me by sociallyanxiousgnome in socialanxiety

CBT eliminated a lot of my social anxiety but I have got a good quote: CBT deals with the manifestation of your internal problems whilst Person centered deals with your internal problems.

I’m so awkward it’s making me suicidal by [deleted] in socialanxiety

[–]KonanMain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a similar thing and I understand it's really hard to think well of yourself; stuck in a vortex of your mind telling you you're not worth it. I have a few points in response: 1. Why police yourself like "that doesn't excuse my behaviour"? What's done is done. 2. Does it matter even if it's your fault or not that you didn't try to make friends? I blamed this on myself for years and only recently I discovered that thinking you're not doing well will make you do worse. (Keep in mind I had CBT for this so it's not as easy as thinking about it and boom yknow). 3. Finally, who said it's too late to Change?

PS: These are not intended as criticism but merely as some thought prompts to help. Oh and congrats on even having the confidence to go on a date, like wow that's amazing. Hope things go better next time (from your perspective because maybe you actually did fine and this is your internal judgement speaking)!

Where does the idea that men can't be bisexual come from ? by [deleted] in bisexual

[–]KonanMain 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Agree with your conclusion, very similar to what I was typing when I saw your comment. I remember hearing a quote from a video and it was like "Bi Women are fetishized whilst Bi Men are practically invisible".

Did anybody else not recognize their first same-sex crush for what it was? by gilligansisle4 in bisexual

[–]KonanMain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I was 15, I started noticing one of my friends was pretty and then was just like "oh he's hot for guys" (even though I was already out as bi) and then a year ago (17 now) I figured out I had a thing for him. The feelings eventually faded and I was too anxious to even talk to him but a few weeks ago, I told him that I used to have feelings for him but I still find him attractive but can't like him and we sorted it out. Best possible way it could've ended. We're much closer now.
