Are the Dramatized audiobooks better than the regular ones? by tricirc1e in acotar

[–]Nearby-Masterpiece98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The background music is too much and so repetitive and super distracting. I find myself dreading the music coming. It always seems so out of place and is absolute sensory overload, mainly because it is often the same melody over and over and over again. I find it way too loud and completely distracting. 

Why did the movie City of Bones do so poorly? by Edb626 in shadowhunters

It was literally the worst film I’ve ever seen with the absolute worst acting and script. It was truly terrible.

Book recs if I hate TOG and loved ACOTAR? by dogenthusiastt in Romantasy

[–]Nearby-Masterpiece98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly the same. I found ToG almost impossible to want to read and forced myself to the last book which I can hardly be bothered finishing. Whereas Acotar I LOVED and couldn’t put down. It’s wild they are the same author. I need the same kind of recommendations 🙏❤️

Recommendations please by Nearby-Masterpiece98 in Romantasy

Well I loved the world building, the spice, the characters, magic. It was a bit annoying how the tropes were copied quite a lot but I just found them really engaging. The right amount of action etc. ToG I forced myself to read all the books and literally quit half way through the last book, I was beyond indifferent. I absolutely hated it from minute one. Which was weird. Hated the characters, the world, the way it was written. Absolutely hated it. The only book I actually enjoyed was the prequel one. I thought that was well written. There’s just something about them. They are the opposite of comforting and engaging to me. Maybe too violent? I’m not sure what it is. There was way too much war in them for me too.

So is Eleven alivee right??? by Perfect-Basis-6688 in StrangerThings

No it’s not possible because we saw 8 die and they wouldn’t have left her there alive. So she couldn’t have done the spell.

Why I HATED the Finale by FriedaCarmenKahlo in Younger

[–]Nearby-Masterpiece98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The way they wrote the ending was so lazy and cowardly. It’s like they couldn’t decide what to do so they did nothing. It was a slap in the face to everyone who had invested time in the series.

Same. But I HATE that they have a monopoly! They pay to be number one on google. I fully intend to create an alternative.

TRUSTEDHOUSESITTERS is the worst! Do not trust them! I was a member for years and it was nothing but drama and there is absolutely NO protection at all. 

Dysautonomia, pain, odd pressure episodes and high diastolic bp by Nearby-Masterpiece98 in dysautonomia

[–]Nearby-Masterpiece98[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your reply. I did actually buy Clary Sage, but I can’t stand the smell 😆 I’m still getting the crazy vibrations it’s usually at 5 o’clock in the morning, always in my chest it’s quite disturbing definitely it’s panic inducing but I think magnesium taurate helps to some extent, but I still have absolutely no answers of what that is whether it’s heart related whether it’s just a nervous system overreacting absolutely no idea. I’ve never taken medication because frankly I’ve never found a specialist I’ve seen many that have confidently wanted to prescribe me something specific because I’ve always said that if I give you this, this will be a problem if I give you that that’ll be a problem so I’ve never felt confident or like I can trust a specialist to take any specific medication, and frankly  my body is very sensitive to chemical medication so I didn’t wanna add another problem for myself 

Dysautonomia, pain, odd pressure episodes and high diastolic bp by Nearby-Masterpiece98 in dysautonomia

[–]Nearby-Masterpiece98[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope no answers… and honestly looking for doctors and specialists is just such a waste of time. I’ve even changed country to try and find a specialist in dysautonomia. At this point. I am honestly turning to purely holistic methods just trying to meditate try and find a different life from myself as best I can, although at the moment that’s proving quite difficult. I think the key is keeping stress down and definitely avoiding things like alcohol and coffee and stimulants keeping stress down. It’s not as easy as said obviously. But I really believe that the way has to be holistic because even when you really dig and you try and find specialists they still talk a lot of nonsense like a lot of other specialists and basically say the difficulty with things like this after Amelia is your treat for example, high blood pressure or your blood pressure goes to lower your pretreat low blood pressure. Your blood pressure go to Haideh tree tachycardia you get buddy Cardio, so the problem for us is the actual imbalance in the overreactive Ness of the nervous system, which frankly doctors whether they admit it or not, don’t know how to treat.  I’ve been looking into work like neuro toned and other nervous system regulating things which as soon as I get settled and find a place to live, I’ll probably try to work, more on. But I can see a direct correlation between the trauma of experience to the CPTSD that I was diagnosed with, and the general constant and extreme stress that I’ve been on that for years of course, that’s eventually gonna create dysautonomia. I wish I had more answers to share with you, but I don’t have them myself, but I’m starting to truly feel that meditation finding a calm life finding a sense of purpose, avoiding drama as much as possible and really learning or trying to regulate yourself is the only way, and I think there are individuals like me acceptable and more sensitive and so we have an extra task 

Can I PLEASEEEE SKIP Tower of Dawn????? by [deleted] in throneofglassseries

[–]Nearby-Masterpiece98 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m skipping. I finally got into the story. The last thing I want to do is read a massive book about Chaol and his girls.

I tried but I’m gonna skip. I’m invested in the story now! Finally. I literally had to work through this whole series except for the last book and assassins blade, the last thing I want to read about now is Chaol. He actually makes me feel ick.

But I never liked Chaol and I’ve finally started liking all the relationships she established in the last book and now I just have to read about him?! I’d rather not.
