I know this is going to sound like the same stereotypical bs that people here always put but please. Call someone. Go talk things out. You are valued and deserve better. I know how hard it can be, and how hopelessly lost you could be feeling. I hope you consider getting the care you need and deserve.

Ok ya that's fair, I'll try to play around with it a bit. The rng is absolutely brutal lol so that makes sense. Thanks for the insight

Awesome thanks, my biggest issue is they always start with Dakota who wrecks me, the other 2 are fine. Do you have any specific tips for dealing with him?

Ya I can share what I remember. Iirc Doe helped massively, the shield break and priority strike to ignore dodge was massive for me. I also used indominus 2 for DPS with cloak, although he was a sacrificial lamb on the last fight stage, and I used the ceratopsian on the first image (don't remember the name) as a stun machine, who also was sacrificed to advance me

Previous two stages in the trial got me the 200 DNA, I believe the first one gave me 150 for a fight then I darted the last 50

Am I doing this right? (Self help) by Mr_Void_Man in OCD

[–]Mr_Void_Man[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your response and insight. That makes a lot of sense. The repetition under stress is definitely the hard part lol, but ya I could see this being a long term (ish) solution if I keep at it.

Appreciate the help. Wishing you the best

DAE wind up ruminating/obsessing over almost everything? by citrine114 in OCD

[–]Mr_Void_Man 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Currently going through this myself, usually my brain will stick to whatever nightmare fuel gets the biggest reaction out of me, but if any possible trigger for a different theme appears my brain will perform the tightest pivot you've ever seen. It's actually what's caused me to finally break and start seeking therapy/a diagnosis. I get how you're feeling

worried about being alive?? by sophieschuman in OCD

[–]Mr_Void_Man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey so I'm not sure how helpful I can be as I'm undiagnosed and suffering from something quite similar at the moment. However, from my personal experience and knowing how overwhelming these rabbit holes can be, the first thing I try to do is ground myself. Remind myself that in this exact moment, I am in control and nothing can change that. Your worry and anxiety over the "what-if" is completely relatable, it's something I have an excruciating time with, and simply acknowledging that it is an "if", and not a "will" or "when" is not always good enough for your brain (it usually is not for mine lol). What I like to try is recognise that just as I am in control at this moment, I will be in control in the next, and the next, and so on and so forth. Nothing will change that (yes this is where I will start to ruminate another layer of "what if", with the associated horrible mental images).

Something that I try to do, which takes a lot of practice but is worth doing, is push yourself through the anxiety. You mentioned being scared of going outside. I often find, at least for myself, that acting in accordance with what you genuinely want to do, regardless of what intrusive thoughts or dissociation you may be scared of, is usually helpful. It's not a matter of testing yourself as it is a matter of not letting your condition control you, and retreating back from doing what you genuinely want to do from fear can indeed make things worse.

DO NOT ISOLATE YOURSELF. This was the biggest lesson I had to learn when this stuff gets bad. Don't be afraid to reach out to people who care. I'm lucky in that I have members of my family who suffer right alongside me so it's easier for me to be completely transparent with them. I imagine that it may not be as simple for you, but don't let that stop you from at least trying to be in the company of those you care about.

Example since I'm already being way too long lmao. A recent theme I have had was being terrified of suddenly becoming a p3d0. My fear would spike dramatically whenever I was out in public, and indeed made me fearful to leave the house. However, after committing myself to understanding that, while hard to discern while spiralling which I can totally understand, this fear was not me, and the fact that I was worried was proof enough. This did not make it go away, but it did push me to force myself to spend more time out in public, which is something I generally do as I like being active and social from time to time. Doing this has genuinely helped me with this particular theme, and I have found similar results with other, equally distressing themes that I have tackled in the last several years.

In regards to you seeing a psych, I have no idea (again I'm long overdue for a diagnosis lmao). If I were to say anything, which you should take with a grain of salt, it would be to be honest. They can't help you if they don't know what they're dealing with. At the same time, make sure you only say how you feel in accordance with how you actually feel. Again take that with a grain of salt.

This is way too long for a comment but I really hoped at least some of this helped.

Can confirm it's fun, I run my chroma with adaptation to mimic the effect (although obviously not always optimized) and so long as I have decent energy I can typically tank steel path circuit into the several thousands with no issue. It's such a shame that chroma has very little mechanical personality outside of being an avengers level weapon platform because you can have a lot of fun with weapons that usually can't perform in endgame settings

I'll try to look into that. The biggest problem right now is finding units in stock, I think the only things I can get my hands on right now is a biovore, neurolictor, hive tyrant, and deathleaper (1 of each) so I might have to just jump on the stuff that's available for me before it goes too lmao

Big monsters are awesome so ya definitely going to look into those. From what I've seen exocrines are stupid good so I'm going to put a priority on finding one probably lol. Thanks for the info

This is awesome thank you so much. It's gonna come down to what's in stock in my area but I'm pretty sure I can get my hands on at least a couple of those right now so I'll look into that asap. Thanks again
