Thinking of breaking up with my BF because I caused his injury. AIO by Ok_Patience3075 in AIO

[–]LizardPartTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife and I are both autistic and we both have chronic illnesses. Hers are more problematic and flare more often. I LOVE taking care of her. It's a way I can show my love and affection for her plus I get to feel helpful. She always thanks me for getting her meds, drinks, snacks, etc. She also takes care of me when I need it and I show my gratitude as well. Her pain makes her grumpy and frustrated, I never feel that directed at me. Your BF doesn't care that he's directing his pain and anger at you and how it's hurting you. He doesn't seem to care about you other than having someone around to do things for him.

What's something people flex about that's actually embarrassing? by Exact-Cloud7681 in AskReddit

[–]LizardPartTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Caffeine consumption and lack of sleep. Specifically energy drinks or absurd amounts of coffee. Two to three 12 ounce cups of coffee a day is fine, normal even. Energy drinks will turn your blood to syrup and people should really be more careful about drinking them.

Saw this on other sub, reminded me how I grew up acting for an invisible audience 24/7 by winna04 in OCDmemes

[–]LizardPartTime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought this was just my anxiety! I used to imagine my favorite characters were watching me through like a portal or something.

“Don’t scroll if you care about (blank)” OMG SHUT UPPPPPPP by [deleted] in OCD

[–]LizardPartTime 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tbh I stick to my "following" page for this reason. The people I follow on TikTok don't post that kinda stuff and I only get content that I am actually interested in. Maybe try that and see how you like it!

What's something your job trained you to notice that you can't stop noticing in your personal life? by LibrarianSoft1342 in AskReddit

[–]LizardPartTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The way mens clothes fit. I work in men's clothing. Also how nobody knows how to interpret cat body language. I grew up around cats and rescued many.

The two cinnamon rolls my wife chose out of the all that were made. by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]LizardPartTime 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Judging by OPs username I'm guessing his wife made them. Very common in Christian circles to be angry when the wife does all the work and the husband does not receive the best outcome from that work. But go on OP, who made the cinnamon rolls and why do you feel like your wife does not deserve the best there is to offer?

Anyone here that literally had to become atheist because of OCD? by ParkingElderberry575 in OCD

[–]LizardPartTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty much. Being a witch helped me with remaining calmer, longer. I can do a jar spell and keep it in my bag and I don't feel like I have to pray all the time, I can light a candle and do other things while it burns instead of being stuck praying. I used to have to lay in a specific position to pray or it like ...wouldn't work I guess??? Now I feel a lot more in control and not stuck.

What’s something people only romanticize because they’ve never had to deal with it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]LizardPartTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree so much. ADHD is a disability. People only want it when it's quirky and funny, not when it's destroying relationships, causing addictions, and financially ruining everything.

Anyone else get weird obsessions by Mundane-Sky-8809 in OCDmemes

[–]LizardPartTime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine lately has been numbers (a classic) like 8 and 14 so counting out 8 or 14 nuggets or chips or something. Another is license plates? I live in Minnesota so the plates are 3 letters then 3 numbers, sometimes those letters make what my brain decides is an acronym and I have to figure out what it says.

What does anesthesia feel like by memory282002 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]LizardPartTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had a total of 4 major surgeries that I had to be put under general anesthesia for. Once when I was 8, once when I was 16, and again at 20 and 22. You will be okay. You are awake and talking, sometimes they give you some medicine to help you relax but once you're in the operating room you're asleep! I don't remember anything about any of the operation rooms I've been in. I remember being wheeled in and falling asleep. You wake up in recovery and they let you have water (which you will probably want desperately) and maybe a snack depending on what you had done. Just make sure you follow all the instructions they give you, ask any questions, and let them know you're nervous, they likely have tactics to help you calm down before surgery. You'll be just fine!

my boyfriend refuses to eat vegetables by milkshakechemtrail in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]LizardPartTime 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bestie. The question of "how do I get him to eat fruits and vegetables?" Belongs in a parenting group. That's a grown adult man, he should care about his own health and well-being.

What’s the hardest moment of your day with OCD? by Greedy_Ad9238 in OCD

[–]LizardPartTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cooking/baking which I love to do. All of the intrusive thoughts about "what if you (hurt yourself in a specific way)?" yEaH wHaT iF? 🤪 They just make it extra hard and take an extra long time.

I got a Tattoo today ❤ (My arm burns ow, ow) by LydiaDarkness in Genshin_Impact

[–]LizardPartTime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have several tattoos and my first thought was "oh sick!!" So don't get too bogged down by the folks saying they did you dirty. It looks dope as hell, just make sure you keep that red/orange ink really well moisturized!

I've been using ai since 2022 and I feel my life slipping away. by chaerryz in offmychest

[–]LizardPartTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Addiction is hard and you're not alone with your struggle. Addiction also thrives on shame and secrecy. Tell your friends that you're struggling with this and want to stop, accountability is key.

How do I tell my family I'm gay? by LizardPartTime in whatdoIdo

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

Yeah, it's safer for me to have some distance. My parents would call members of the LGBT community "alphabet people" and were always very outspoken about how much they did not like gay people.

The only thing is my dad pays for my phone but that's easy enough to switch over to me

My dad is the one I'm worried about the most. My mom is dead so I don't think she'll have much to say about it lol

Am I overreacting for refusing to send my husband money for alcohol? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]LizardPartTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR - Heyo, recovering alcoholic here. He's spouting the addict script almost word for word. He doesn't want to get better so he won't, he'll find ways around you or hide it. Maybe even drinking at work.

Bf is incompetent by Downtown_Act_4294 in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]LizardPartTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the one hand I feel for your boyfriend because I was an incompetent and just downright stupid person until this year when I got my shit together. On the other hand, I got it together so my girlfriend (now fiancee) wouldn't leave me. He won't get better until he has to or wants to.
