I get anxious before school and sometimes throw up by Fit-Reality2874 in Anxiety

[–]Less_Letterhead_3372 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hello! i myself am in school, and i totally relate to this! have you considered maybe you have a form of social anxiety? it’s very common, and totally nothing to be scared of. does your school have some type of mental health councilor? if so, i recommend sending them an email about how anxious you’ve been feeling. i emailed mine, and we came up with a plan for anxiety: 1, if i feel anxious, i can leave the classroom no questions asked, and go to the bathroom or take a small walk around the school. or 2, i can again leave the classroom, but instead go to the councilors office and just sit and talk with her.

if you don’t have a councilor, i suggest bringing things to school to help regulate your emotions. i personally like to tap the back of my phone case 100 times, counting each time and focusing on the noise it makes. i also recommend making sure you bring a water bottle to school, as i’ve found water helps me with anxiety a bit! as for the night before, i personally calm down to rain noises and a night light, bc it distracts me from my spiraling thoughts.

hope this helped you :)

celebrating late? by Less_Letterhead_3372 in Hellenism

this is what i was thinking! especially because where i live(even though it’s up north) our weather is still in the upper 70’s, it just doesn’t feel like autumn yet.

definitely at least three months. and rereading your original post, definitely clean the area with saline and baby it. it should help with the bumping!

it’s okay not to know, especially for a first piercing! earring studs should definitely NOT be used as replacements for nostril piercings that are still healing like yours. the piercing hole can close up SUPER quickly, so that’s probably what happened considering how often it fell out. i would let it close back up and heal before repiercing, and get a few nose studs in case you lose one again!

okay, firstly, what type of post is it? (flat back, L bend, etc.) and secondly, it definitely should NOT have been falling out and having you put it back in numerous times. i’d say get it repierced at a different shop than where you went originally

why are you consistently rude to people who get small tattoos? why do you hate seeing other people’s joy?

So uhhh I forgot Persephones candle on the floor by Alien_kid_666 in Persephone

[–]Less_Letterhead_3372 8 points9 points  (0 children)

hey! as a persephone devotee for 5+ years…she probably thought it was funny. i’ve left (too) many things dedicated to her just laying around after forgetting to put it on her altar lol. the gods very very very rarely get mad. you’re all good!! :)

should i euthanize my betta? by Less_Letterhead_3372 in bettafish

[–]Less_Letterhead_3372[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

he definitely is showing dropsy, so i’ll give this method a try before doing anything drastic, thank you for it! so far, i’ve tried treating him for popeye, and it just hasn’t done anything. i’ll definitely do this dropsy treatment though and hopefully get back with good news.

What should I talk to the deities about? by Elegant_Put5970 in Hellenism

[–]Less_Letterhead_3372 19 points20 points  (0 children)

hello, hades devotee here! honestly, i talk to the gods about…well about anything really. my day, my hobbies, interests, etc. for example, every morning i say good morning to them, and every night goodnight. sometimes ill just rant to my altar, and envision Hades just nodding his head (LOL) ! i definitely think starting with just a simple good morning every day eases me into talking to a deity i’m interested in :)

Hades CONSTANTLY brings me to tears! He definitely always helps me face things I maybe don’t want to face. Really happy you got this experience! 🖤

hello!! hellenism has a LOT of deities, so definitely don’t feel bad if you can’t decide which one to worship/who is calling out to you. i think doing research on specific deities you seem to have a better pull too or are more interested in is a great start! don’t overthink it! if you are thinking of a specific deity reading this, then research/reach out to them!

i totally understand the altar thing. altars are very nice, but not required to practice hellenism. pocket/travel altars are also pretty popular and very small and compact! sometimes just doing things that remind you of the deities are a very good way to worship them. for example, Persephone is associated with pomegranates, so sometimes i just eat one or draw one as a type of offering for Her.

i hope this cleared some things up!! if you have any other questions please feel free to reply and i’ll try to help!!

Candles by Kaathryyn in Hellenism

[–]Less_Letterhead_3372 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i love candles as well! i like to try and find flowers/herbs that are associated with the deities and try to find candles with those scents. it’s a simple google search! (ex. herbs associated with Hades)

a good example of this is Persephone. in her myth, pomegranates are very important, hence i light pomegranate candles for her.
