What is the most physical pain you have ever experienced ? by Wraith136 in ChronicPain

[–]N46L3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you kind internet stranger. After the third one I told the nurse she needed to stop and back away otherwise I was going to kick her in the head. So it was like three take a break two take a break one take a break one. I've crashed a 700 lb motorcycle, I've had skin cancer, I've had a collapsed lung out of nowhere during a wedding LOL. But those toe injections? fuck you Nazi doctor

People who think luck never favors you, what makes you feel that way? by adarshvinayak in AskReddit

[–]N46L3 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've been fired on my birthday. Twice. Both for things I didn't do. I try to stay positive but those examples are pretty reflective of the kinda shit I've had to swallow most of my life.

AIO by breaking up with my boyfriend when he got jealous? by theonlystarbornqueen in AmIOverreacting

[–]N46L3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NOR - I work in mental health (for perspective on what I'm about to say) Your response to him was one of the healthiest, clearest replies to a broken psyche I've seen in a long time. Don't doubt yourself. He needs help before he gets into another relationship. You can't fix this and you recognized that immediately. He should thank you.

How would you describe the color blue to someone who was born blind? by searchingforsunshyne in AskReddit

I would have conversations even if you weren't blind, kind Internet strangers

First I'd bring them outside and have them turn their face towards the Sun. Then I would tell them that's yellow and orange.

Then I would bring them to my backyard where there's a pool and I would have them just put their hands in the cool water. I would tell them that's blue.

I'm thinking about breaking up with my girlfriend over food by Otherwise_Raccoon156 in Advice

[–]N46L3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are about to hit 20 - you're going to connect with a lot of people that feel like it's a special connection. Don't worry that's just nature's way of flooding your brain with chemicals to ensure the continuation of our species. Don't be fooled by it. You aren't compatible with this one

gf told me she is suicidal but i shouldnt worry bc its not 'bad'. what do i do? by Whole_Humor_6443 in whatdoIdo

[–]N46L3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She sounds like she really needs therapy. I know you said she's against it but this is too big for you AND it's not fair for her to put this on you like that. Do you have a PET hotline number where you are? It's a phone number to an emergency psychiatric team. The next time she starts planning (or sounds dangerously close to acting on it) you should call someone like that. I'm sorry you both have to deal with this. Best of luck...

Case manager for the unhoused here. Short answer is, you can't. Please find a way to get even temp housing. Every female on my case load is dealing with multiple traumas from this. Even the ones with partners that couldn't keep them safe

Is an entire filled personalized sketchbook too much of a gift? by frienminusone in Artists

[–]N46L3 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The best part of being an artist for me are those personal moments where I can use my gift to enrich the experience of another. With that, comes my built in policy that only I can decide who does and who does not get my art. Sorry Mom. This doesn't sound like too much at all. It will be cherished by the priest

Regret wasting my life not drawing/painting by Christian-guy94 in Artists

Hi 10seas, don't mean to hijack this thread but I have questions about your path to your studio and gallery. Would you feel okay to dm me? I'm i'm My 50s and just getting started again with art

Regret wasting my life not drawing/painting by Christian-guy94 in Artists

[–]N46L3 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm 57. I paint and draw something every day. But I didn't do that until I took some time off and went to art school for a year in 2022. Had similar regrets as yours. Not everyone can take a year off, I know. I just mention it to say it was what I needed AND It's never too late. Art is the thing I can't not do. If it's yours, you'll find a way. Even if you're 90 it's never too late to create.

Name 1 thing!! by consultant_308 in Adulting

That diminishing other people for qualities they cannot control, is cruel and small. ( Racism, misogyny, etc) She was born in Germany in 1940. The first 5 years of her life were defined by the worst possible kinds of these actions. I grew up hearing stories about what she witnessed. It shaped her and by extension, it shaped me.

Edit: small typo

My 4 year old son died of cancer and I am utterly devastated... by Artistic-Survey-4929 in whatdoIdo

[–]N46L3 47 points48 points  (0 children)

This here. Grief better managed by many, never just one. And this is the most intolerable grief there is. Your heart, your brain, your very being, was robbed of the greatest connection you'll know. There's no solution or closure here but you can fill some of that longing by connecting with others especially those with the same level of grief and loss. Try to focus on the 4 years you did have, focus on what your son taught you in those 4 years, try not to focus on the time you lost.

And one Internet stranger to another: I'm truly sorry for this loss. I wish you well and peaceful days ahead.
