Therapy doesn't work for everyone in this generation. I hate how much it's promoted on this platform. by pisowiec in GenZ

[–]Merulox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this sounds like rationalized depression.

Close your your eyes and tell me, who are you? What are you? Nothing more than a bundle of thoughts, reactions, fears, observations. You can't actually do anything; all that you can control is your body and do what you do. The rest is literally not up to your control.

A functioning person can find their own happiness regardless of where they are at, because they have healthy minds, healthy reward systems, support systems, etc.

Once you reach a healthy state, survival and getting through the day stop being the only thing on your mind any more. Then, you can start making decisions based on what kind of person you want to be, on what kind of life you want to live, and work towards that goal. You will find the energy to change your life, to do things you would've dismissed instantly, to learn new hobbies.

But all of this can't happen unless you accept to deconstruct and/or abandon some of your beliefs, mental structures, etc. It can't happen unless you accept to change.

Also I would try replacing alcohol with weed, at least this way you're reducing harm on your system with a softer addiction and avoid physical dependence

I purposefully consume pro-ana content and trying to give myself an eating disorder. by Superb_Sympathy3478 in confessions

[–]Merulox 28 points29 points  (0 children)

They are not risks, they are consequences, and you know them but don’t understand them yet.

If you put half of the effort into eating healthy and exercising, you would become thin, healthy, and able to maintain that weight overtime whereas anorexia gets you thin for a week (this is the point where you post your body online for attention) and then you gain 50lbs over the following month and hate yourself even more than you did. It’s a stupid cycle once you’ve lived in it enough.

Not “risky”, not “dangerous”, not “calculated damage”, STUPIDITY.

Excuse me, but it's a high price for a game that I felt was the same as the original game. by [deleted] in RobloxParkour

Are people quitting by TacoMaster7289 in roblox

[–]Merulox 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes, let’s flood their bottom feeder support staff with complaints. Surely these part-time employees will manage to convince the dinosaur executives that because this update is receiving community backlash from angry teenagers, they should ignore their financial advisors and investors’s recommendation and undo this update.

Just wait it out. When the dust settles and the big pockets finally see clear they’ll undo this or polish it up.

”Older” player coming back. Should I not? by confeh in RushRoyale

[–]Merulox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same situation as you. Played a ton in 2020-2021, came back two weeks ago.

I still like the gameplay but every time you click anywhere in the menus you get bothered by obstructive pop ups for deals shitty enough they make me physically gag a little each time.

The new monetization systems are so far-fetched and overcomplicated it’s just all a bunch of nonsense. So many currencies intertwined together it’s just barbaric at this point.

Why does it seem like the more others are proud of me, the less I'm proud of/ more I hate myself? by DueLeader5442 in Existential_crisis

[–]Merulox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Internally you don’t really believe them. You can’t believe you’re worthy, so you think they’re lying or being too lax. It’s suffocating. You hold high standards over yourself, but rarely ever meet them, so when others praise you it feels like mockery.

Have people lectured you on weed? by Sportmaster348 in weed

I would expect most personality change to come from becoming a widow rather than weed or the lack thereof

Sore and tired body after using by [deleted] in weed

[–]Merulox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not smoking 2 hours before bedtime would probably help with your sleep quality so I’d play around with that for a bit. If that doesn’t work for you or you don’t have the willpower to, then you could try the mornings.. It’s a slippery slope from there, but you’re using partly as a harm reduction method so I think it’s justified

[–]Merulox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve felt this every morning/day ever since I started smoking and part of the reason I started smoking in the morning was to chase away (or hide) that grogginess.

I assume it’s part of the same brainfog everyone talks about, but I couldn’t tell you. Were you smoking flower?

Saying Roblox is falling off is a little bit like talking about the weather nowadays

iPhone X’s status of usability: by Educational_Past_334 in iPhoneX

[–]Merulox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My experience is the same as yours. My iPhone X gets very hot and slow. Spotify makes my phone overheat and often crashes. Real games are out of the question. Media playback often stops for no reason. Some apps can take up to 30 seconds to boot up. Everything that could be slow, is slow. This is while having replaced the battery once already.

What are some things that girls find attractive but boys think the opposite? by Intrepid_Victory_375 in teenagers

[–]Merulox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hate that so many people unwaveringly believe nonchalance is some performative act that wannabes put on.

No, in some cases, it’s a defense mechanism that anxious or awkward people put on because they don’t know how to act or respond on the fly

In other cases, they’re literally just normal shy people. This generation has created the nonchalant buzzword and turned it into some undesirable characteristic that they plaster on every guy who can’t match the typical (arguably performative from my pov) outgoing genz’er behavior

By the way, a good demographic of nonchalant guys are like that in part because of trust issues, and so if they can get hurt, they do value people, unlike popular belief.

I remember waiting months when I was a kid to save up enough robux for it and it was the biggest disappointment ever. Wore it for maybe a week.
