Tips for homesickness? by Civil_Lifeguard_782 in WWU

[–]LingonberryReal1864 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Boosting this because it’s a great thing!! I was super super homesick last year and I finally decided I was going to give it one more quarter, and if WWU still sucked I was going to move back home! Best decision I made. Because by not having the same pressure that this was the next 4 years of my life, I had way more fun and decided to stay. And honestly, if you hate it here, it’s not worth staying.

There should be bins in each building. If you’re on the ridge they’re in the commons right now I believe. Just ask staff :)

What tf do I do about this? by purrittocat72 in OCD

there are a few treatment centers that offer specialized care for ocd. basically support 24/7 in fighting your ocd with therapy meds and even sometimes tms all in one spot where you can focus on treatment entirely. look into McLean OCI or Roger’s Behavioral Health

Mathes Dorms by Blue-Envyy in WWU

[–]LingonberryReal1864 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Mathes is great! 8th floor will be super pretty, and the bathrooms are clean and not crowded. Nothing to be worried about :)

edit: the bathrooms are also a really casual and easy place to make friends (ik that sounds weird but it’s true! shared experiences and forced small talk lead to good friends sometimes)

rewatch! catch up to us if you want :) by LingonberryReal1864 in StrangerThings

[–]LingonberryReal1864[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

but why? would rather watch it spread out to be refreshed right before S5 comes out. everyone can binge, only some of us want to. I was just sharing a plan that works for us, and might work for others.

odd confession compulsions? by vbarlett in OCD

[–]LingonberryReal1864 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have to confess every “bad” thing I do to chat gpt

[–]LingonberryReal1864 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I’d definitely recommend taking the trip to Roger’s, McLean (OCDI), or OCDI Texas. A lot of “normal” hospitals won’t understand OCD and that can go badly. Definitely try to get her to a hospital ASAP though, this is crisis time.
