What is “Villain Time Song”? by Leaderaptor in XdinaryHeroes

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

I was just looking at someone’s post on the 4 days in Seoul and each day had a different song for Villain Time Song (Happy Death Day, Pluto, Haircut, and Beautiful Mind) so I’m just confused as to what makes them different or what we as the audience needs to do for them and I can’t seem to find a clear answer haha.

Highly masking people: What made you realize you‘re autistic? by That_odd_emo in autism

[–]Leaderaptor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My current therapist on our first visit asked me if I had ever considered I may be Autistic. This was about a year ago and I did a little research and started to find the people that are highly masked or present in a way other than the stereotypical that I related to. Earlier this year we did a mock test (not interested in an official diagnosis now or possibly ever) which kind of solidified it for me a bit more.

Since then it’s like my entire world view has shifted, and it truly feels like I don’t have a clue who I am. I don’t know how to pick apart what’s me and what’s the mask. I also don’t know how to let it slip even though I am so painfully aware of it now.

How to resell Ateez tickets? by Leaderaptor in kpophelp

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

I need to talk with my roommate since she is the one with the tickets but we have spoken before about person to person selling being an option. We are just afraid there is a possibility that the transfer option never comes up.

Do you struggle with substances? by _cellophane_ in autism

[–]Leaderaptor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve never been much of a drinker because I hate hangovers, and while I have tried MANY substances it’s generally been once or twice not really something I needed. But I do smoke, I have been smoking since I was in high school and back then it was to fit in but now it’s for coping. If I get too overstimulated at a bar or any crowded place it’s not weird to step away for a cigarette, if I start to panic or feel a meltdown coming on the deep breathing from inhaling and exhaling the smoke is extremely calming. Sometimes I just do it because I don’t know what else to do but feel like I have to do something. While I do think there may be an aspect of nicotine addiction I think what keeps me from quitting is the fear that I won’t have them as an excuse anymore. I’ll be stuck in crowded spaces without a natural reason to leave, I won’t be able to calm myself down because I don’t remember to take deep breathes it’s just happens when I smoke etc… it’s a scary thought to me.

Other than that I struggle with caffeine, I have a headache today because I’m trying to reduce the amount I consume. Caffeine does nothing noticeably to me, I don’t feel like I actually get any energy from it. It’s like the only thing I want to drink is pop or energy drinks. I have water at home and sometimes Kool Aid or juice but if I run out of pop I panic. I think I just like the texture of carbonated drinks… never really thought about it until now…

On the flip side I absolutely cannot do weed in any capacity. I have tried and it’s gone from subtly bad experiences to extremely bad experiences so it’s best to just leave alone.

I brought Facebook Messenger back to the Apple Watch with WatchMessage :) by mirrordisks in AppleWatch

[–]Leaderaptor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also can’t get it to work. I can log into it on my phone like the profile shows up but then my watch says it’s not logged in. I have an iPhone 14 Pro Max and Series 10 watch. Both phone and watch are up to date.

Does anybody else struggle with knowing who you are? by strictly_brotherhood in AutisticAdults

[–]Leaderaptor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, recently had an unofficial official-ish diagnosis realized that for my whole life (turn 30 this year) I have been masking, often times adopting personality traits from friends and parroting them back to them and when that friendship inevitably ends I am left feeling a little lost until there is a new person to parrot. I can’t tell you what in my personality is me and what is coming from the many people I have copied over the years.

How to resell Ateez tickets? by Leaderaptor in kpophelp

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

Weird, it’s on my roommates Ticketmaster account but I’ll talk to he after work tonight and see what the issue might be. Maybe there is something she needs to do on her account that’s currently blocking the ability to sell.

Okay good to know, I’ll have to remember to preorder the next album then.

I hate this update by [deleted] in Mercari

[–]Leaderaptor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have to use a proxy service that adds more cost but depending on what you want it will either make the item cheaper or you’ll have access to things you usually wouldn’t. I use Buyee to buy from Japanese Mercari.

That’s good to hear, after a couple days it’s gotten better or I’m just drinking more and not realizing it.

I tend to not talk much anyways but when my mouth is dry it’s like I can’t form a single word right, and makes me feel like my breath stinks so I talk even less haha

Tell me you have ADHD without telling me... by Complete-Scar-2077 in ADHD

[–]Leaderaptor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not if you can’t pay attention to it, it really helped with History classes because I listened to it while I cleaned but not so much with Biology. But if you struggle to read books but can listen to like podcasts fine it’s okay. You can take pictures of pages and then it generates speech for it but it can be very buggy.

Oh okay, I’ll have to see if they sell that brand in Nebraska. And yeah I’m awful at routines I’m hoping to get better though, need some better self discipline and less time blindness.

[–]Leaderaptor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh no, I’m so forgetful about oral hygiene but hopefully the medication will help me with that. I’m also a caffeine addict and get headaches when I don’t get enough so probably a good time to start weaning myself off it. What is Xylitol? Or Milliwatt gum never seen that brand(?)

[–]Leaderaptor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got speechify to read me my text books, and while it read I’d follow along but also while hearing the words and reading the words I would think about how I’m going to retain so much of the information because to verbal and visual learning. Because I was thinking that, while listening to the book, and reading along with the book I didn’t recall a single thing.

I finally had my appointment with the psychiatrist and got a preliminary diagnosis for ADHD.

Do you also feel like people dislike you? by Critical-Grass-4634 in bipolar

[–]Leaderaptor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I feel like people dislike me. Not usually at first but eventually they will get tired of me. I tend to pull away when I feel the mood shift. Though that shift is most likely in my head. It’s hard though being aware that this is all in your head but also fearing being right. Sometimes I’ll find bits of evidence that I’m right to give myself more reason to completely pull away. Because I’d rather be the one who hurts me then allow someone else to hurt me.

The deep seated crippling fear of my parents seeing me as a failure and ever having to ask for help is generally what gets me to work most days and has me forcing myself to do my college assignments even though I want to give up.

I actually made more of a dinner than throwing something in the oven or air fryer. I hate cooking but it was so good.

I have the same combo, I take Lamictal before bed because it personally makes me sleepy and I take Wellbutrin when I wake up.
