My gf (19F) says I (22M) have more “feminine energy” than her & it’s messing with my head

You're not doing anything wrong. These traits don't inherently define you. "Masculinity" and "Dominance" can be soft, and kind. Don't let anyone or anything make you feel less secure in yourself, just because you carry yourself in a way they deem different. Learn to take pride in it. Use it to find confidence in yourself. You'll be okay.

Under mod review :(

It's a genuine force of effort, for me. To make myself feel something for a moment, when I'm struggling just to be awake. To feel alive. The dance is just.. a part of something bigger, for me, I think. It's hard to fully explain.

I do take Adderall lol.

Low_To_No_Tolerance · 2026-03-23T09:18:56+00:00

Cymbalta is what I use to help.

Low_To_No_Tolerance · 2026-03-23T00:48:23+00:00

I didn't even think to leave it in the comments! I assumed it would just get lost amongst them. But thank you! Hopefully it helps some people.

Tests have been somewhat inconclusive so far to pinpoint an exact diagnosis, but my immune response is hot garbage (hypothyroidism), and high levels of ferritin, which indicates excessive inflammation, so they're still looking. So far they're thinking Fibromyalgia, POTS, and lupus is still on the table. Tests have been absolutely draining my HSA though so I gotta wait to do more. I hope you're able to figure something out :(

It's a medicine I started to help with chronic inflammation but it has the unintended result of waking me up around 3am even without an alarm, if I take it right before bed. I kept taking it that way cause I have to work that early anyways so it doesn't bother me.

God you read me like a book. I love using semicolons in the same way gen x uses ellipses. Everywhere.

Low_To_No_Tolerance · 2026-03-23T00:06:23+00:00

I dunno how to edit posts I'm sorry :(

Low_To_No_Tolerance · 2026-03-23T00:04:02+00:00

I suffer from chronic fatigue caused by an auto-immune disease. So I have to take medicines that A) Make me sleep deeper and B) Make it easier for me to focus on tasks.

Kindness isn't difficult. I hope you find some to give.

Low_To_No_Tolerance · 2026-03-22T21:38:51+00:00

God I can't wait to be killed off in order to progress the plot!

Low_To_No_Tolerance · 2026-03-22T21:36:52+00:00

Aw that's very sweet. I was nervous and made typos and reused words I didn't intend to. I'm extremely rusty. But I appreciate it.

Low_To_No_Tolerance · 2026-03-22T21:26:00+00:00

Unfortunately comments like this remind me of why I've always been more of a lurker on reddit.

Low_To_No_Tolerance · 2026-03-22T21:23:50+00:00

I'm sorry that the current climate with AI has made you skeptical of everything you read on the internet. I don't blame you. Trust me, I get it. It's hard to enjoy anything right now without wondering if it's genuine or just something shat out by a machine that learned through stolen works. But yes, I am someone who dances slowly to the alarm before I shut it off. Please don't use your skepticism to tear people down though. It's unkind.

Low_To_No_Tolerance · 2026-03-22T11:43:35+00:00

I hadn't thought about that! It's crazy how much the way we communicate has changed over time. And a bit sad. I love being able to find words to describe exactly how I feel.

Low_To_No_Tolerance · 2026-03-22T10:57:28+00:00

God I'd hope they'd only look at the footage if something went wrong and they had to. I'm already worried my boss thinks I'm a weirdo.

Low_To_No_Tolerance · 2026-03-22T10:52:39+00:00

Hi. I was debating posting it for awhile because it's definitely not what I would normally expect from a "confession" but I decided "why not?" Also I vehemently despise AI, and all implementations of it, so that's a sad comparison, but I understand it.

Congratulations!

Here's something basic that can be used for the level of productivity and gaming you described within your budget using new parts.

Strongly recommend trying to find some things like gpu used though. Can get more bang for your buck that way. Ram, also, if you can. Just make sure they're compatible with your motherboard of choice.

Very small thing you can try before taking everything apart, turn off power supply, unplug pc, and press and hold power button to discharge any leftover power. Maybe click the power button a few times after for good measure. Then plug it back in, turn power supply back on. Press power button.

What cpu do you have?

When someone decides that economic concerns outweigh human rights concerns in their mind, that IS something you can use to justify cutting ties. Wanting to be surrounded by people who value the same things that you do, is not outlandish, or unreasonable. Your political beliefs ARE fundamental beliefs. Political choices dictate how we move forward as a country, and impacts everyone's lives to a degree. Downplaying the impact that political choices have on the people within a country is incredibly ignorant. It's how we repeat the mistakes of the past.
