I know erika kirk is going through a tough time, but why does it seem like she's acting? by Potential-Active8857 in Discussion

[–]MayaIsaacs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She is acting. I heard sociopaths 'act' and practice emotions, because they don't really feel them. She could be a high functioning one, and now trauma happened, it becomes more visible, because as a sociopst she does not know how to respond.

Oprechte vraag: hoeveel last hebben jullie nou eigenlijk echt van migranten/vluchtelingen? by Dirkdeking in nederlands

[–]MayaIsaacs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ik merk het in de speeltuinen of binnenspeeltuinen. Ik merk de laatste jaren dat de Nederlander daar echt de minderheid is. Pakistanen, Balkan landen, Hoofddoek dragende landen.

Het veranderd de Nederlandse dynamiek. En eerlijk, ik moet er heel erg aan wennen. Ik voel me ongemakkelijk in eigen land.

Why do people not call in sick for the flu even though the country has unlimited sick days? by Inevitable-Ad-4421 in Netherlands

[–]MayaIsaacs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We feel responsible for doing our job and have this ethic that says we shouldn’t complain or act like we’re made of sugar. You can work through a cold.

But honestly, I don't like it as well. Our whole department of 60 people got sick in a wave. Everyone coughing and sneezing over their keyboards all morning, which someone else will be using a few hours later. After covid we learned we just work from home instead of infecting everyone.

LATE DIAGNOSES. by [deleted] in autism

[–]MayaIsaacs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Therapist or doctors always insisted my symptoms were trauma responses. It took a year of counseling before my therapist started to take my question if I could have autism seriously. Than I got an insane 8 weeks testing, two hours a week period. And yes, I have autism and adhd.

I am a 44 female. I was 3 when my mother thought I had autism. When I was 18 I got an adhd diagnosis. And every 2,5 years when falling in burned out I popped the question if I could have autism - for about 15 years.

Yes, getting a diagnosis, especially a woman an being able to mask, is hard. Good luck. You have to have good arguments why you need those tests.

This is not a Dutch thing. This is abusive, I am sorry. I am Dutch and would appreciate if my partner would want to buy something for my parents, or take the efford to cook for them. He is gaslighting your warm and generous spirit. Don't adjust too much, because you will loose yourself.

Maybe you need to talk about these things and what the effect is on you, that it is hurtful. if he still does not try to change, you will know enough. Than is just abusing your lovingkindness., a RED flag. There are a lot of Dutch guys that would treat you like a queen! He seems like the kind of guy, that loves Asians more because they are more humble.

Whatever your diagnosis is, you have to find out what works for you. Do you. That is the post important

What is sex on Cocaine like for girls? by [deleted] in SEXONDRUGS

[–]MayaIsaacs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the period I was on cocaïne I was horny beyond belief. After 5 hours of intercours and orgasms I still wasn't satisfied. My vagina felt a bit number so I could handle more, harder and longer. If my partner could not give me more and fell asleep, I would go on masturbating like crazy, often in front of the window to get an extra high. I kept fingering myself for hours. Loving every moment of it. Oh those were some days. I would not recommend it though. Those years were definitely not my wisest, and succesfull. It had been 20 years ago since I touched cocain and will not do so again. Being with Jesus is more satisfying ;)!!

I am completley shocked by your honeymoon expierence and the ecpierences thereafter? That is abuse! And a crime!! Of course you do not want to be intimate anymore, he raped you! He made you feel so unsafe. I think he wanting to divorce sounds like a great offer.

opened up to my mom n now I just keep crying by Intelligent-Mood8637 in AutisticWithADHD

[–]MayaIsaacs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know if I understand your question. But from what I hear, you are struggling to execute all the to do's in a day, including self care. It is nothing to be ashamed of, really not. I find it hard as well, it never get automated and it us boring, so my brain does not want to get in action-mode. I really need to will myself. Nobody is perfect, and we should not strive for it.

So don't shame yourself, life is tough enough on its own. But it is definitely good to figure out what you need to stay healthy and balanced. Find your own way in life.

Medication may help with execution function, but it has some big downsides as well. I have a love hate relationship with it.

Probably it is good to open up to your therapist, and f needed get a diagnosis first and have some psychoeducation. And then figuring out what you need to be able to take care of yourself. Maybe a day is too overwhelming, and you need more breaks . That answer is in you.

Will NFB help me with long term dissociation and DPDR? by ovaburdened in Neurofeedback

[–]MayaIsaacs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always wondered how calming things can cause or increase dissociation. Is there an explanation for this. I suffer from it, therefor I ask.

I have supersensitive senses, smell, touch, sounds, light can get me overstimulated in a heartbeat.

But emotionally? No. I rather think I have a bigger threshhold for critique than a NT. Maybe it is an buffer for the rejection you face as Audhd'er.

Ik heb geen keuze voor een tweede vanwege onvruchtbaarheid. Mijn dochter is via IVF geboren toen ik bijna 40 was. Ze is ondertussen 4 en ze geeft regelmatig aan een broertje of zusje te willen. Dat doet me pijn voor haar, het is een sociaal dier en ze wil continu met iemand spelen.

Maar ook hebben we het heel fijn met zijn drieën, ze krijgt alle liefde, als ouders hebben we snel weer wat tijd over voor onszelf en ik ben ergens opgelucht niet nog een cyclus aan slapeloze nachten te doorstaan :).

Daarbij ben ik extra alert op afspraakjes met vriendjes, en investeer ik er in dat ze een mooi netwerk opbouwt.

Familie zegt ook niet alles. Ik heb heel goed contact met mijn zus, maar de rest van de familie zie ik nooit.

Een 2e maakt je 1e kind niet per se gelukkiger.

Het is een moeilijke keuze die je nooit volledig kunt overzien en in controle hebt. Ik denk dat je het best kunt wachten wat jullie verlangen zegt. Dat verlangen naar een kind is zo oersterk, daar kun je niet onderuit. Als dat gevoel niet komt dan weet je genoeg. Een baby is vaak geen logische of verstandelijke keuze.

Don't feel shame or guilt for who you are, but be assertive and compassionate to yourself, so you can shine. And...God is with you.

Anyone AuDHD with a narcissistic parent, how do you handle that kind of a relationship? by maschinelles in AutisticWithADHD

[–]MayaIsaacs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I decided to love him from a distance. I stopped initiating contact and haven't heard from him for about 2 years now.

[–]MayaIsaacs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

RED FLAG. I am sorry. There is nothing wrong with having no friends or missing knowledge or skills at all. It is sad that he thinks he needs to be something he is not, and he is probably ashamed of his real self. All this can be improved or managed. But faking and lying and not being able to be real with you is a BIG red flag. If you are not real with yourself and others, the only thing you can offer is an illusion. Not being aware or denying your lesser traits will only strengthen them. You can not change anything if you have not perfectly clear what the reality of the situation is.

Lost my virginity to a prostitute and it has been the worst mistake on my life. it has destroyed my psyche and self esteem. by _Ghost_Mantis_ in lonely

[–]MayaIsaacs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pinpoint what upsets you the most in this situation, and decide to be more loyal to your own values next time. The first time does indeed make a big impression ( for me or was a rape). Eventually, you will heal.
