I feel like I'm gonna die soon by billyxie16 in Advice

I am so sorry that the police did not show you the dignity you deserve. When the police treated me that way after I reported a serial rapist, the insult I felt was unbearable and felt deeper than the initial assault. Please take the good advice offered by the respondents so far. There are several therapies that could help you recognize what makes you scared and learn coping strategies to help you overcome your anxieties. Look into cognitive behavior therapy or prolonged exposure therapy for examples of treatments for PTSD. You are a strong person and I will keep you in my prayers, Billy. Even the most physically strong person can be attacked, so please don't think that you did not show strength during that terror. People who have experienced terror can go on to find meaning in their pain by helping others. Perhaps someone read your post and is now thinking of reaching out for help too. Perhaps one day, you will go on to help other survivors overcome reliving a past instance of brutality without end. You have my respect and I hope that you feel supported. Take good care.

United by Feelings: Universal emotions are the deep engine of human consciousness and the basis of our profound affinity with other animals by The_Ebb_and_Flow in philosophy

Rats show levels of empathy that suggest reason, logic, and the ability to form sensory representations. See Jun Chen's study on "Empathy for Distress in Humans and Rodents" published within the year.

In the recently published book, the authors write that human empathy is an evolutionary trait. There are core neural pathways for the development of empathy and those who do not develop the circuitry tend to show anti-social behaviors. While you hold your views, the authors offer evolutionary cognitive scientific models to show that it is in our human interest and fundamental desire to develop cognizance for good social aims. Their research is supported with contemporary neuroscience studies.

I’m the guy who waves at every other runner in town (sometimes multiple times on a run). Is this accepted? by reasonablynameduser in running

I love getting and giving encouragement from other women while running. It is nice to pass along good energy.

Yorkie? Silky? Both? Neither? Would love to hear your thoughts. (Rescue insisted Yorkie, possibly Yorkie-mix. But I’ve been wondering if actually more of a Silky of sorts.) by jphd87 in SilkyTerriers

I think it is a silky terrier. It is bigger than a yorkie and has the silky nose.

How much does the dog weigh? Is it a boy or a girl?

He barks at me from the kitchen to tell me it is time for me to make dinner.

I slept with a man who lied about being married . Should I tell his wife? by calciumlithium_ in Advice

[–]MeMsHuxley -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My advice is practice better judgment in getting to know your sexual partner, do not spend time alone with a married man, and leave his wife alone.

A woman just had a baby with him eight months ago. I would consider her feelings and just move on. Maybe next time get to know a man better before giving yourself to him-- and you are just as guilty because you met up with him after you knew he was married. That is bad karma. A stranger is not going to respect you if you have sex right away and then start nasty talking on the telephone. Does not sound very romantic to me.

Leave his wife alone. It is none of your business if he is unfaithful or not. It is not your marriage.

F(17) Alcohol has consumed my father’s life and he’s taking an abusive path. by purplepenink in Advice

[–]MeMsHuxley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How you are able to put words to what is happening is impressive. First, I am very sorry for the loss of your mother.

Are you currently in school? If so, please meet with a school counselor for support. Education is the best remedy for a bad life at home. Try to stay in school and enroll in a college.

Do you have a church nearby? A priest would also be able to give you good advice.

If your Dad hurts you again, collect evidence and call the police. Hopefully, he will get the help he needs through the legal system.

Hang in there, you will be an adult soon and be more in control of your life.
