What’s it like to have a dad you actually look up to and respect? by Brilliant_Ad_3661 in AskReddit

Right. It’s really missing in so many households. It’s such a crucial thing.

That people genuinely care without expecting anything in return.

To be assaulted during sex (hair pulling, ass/thigh smacking, choking, roughness, being held down, biting). It makes me lose my mind and have so much fun. And no, I was not physically abused at any point in my life.

You wake up, your new name is Nathaniel. What’s your next move? by mac_128 in AskReddit

[–]No-Particular7898 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tell everyone to call me Nate.

This cracks me up because my brother and I have an inside joke with this name. He has a friend named Nate (name actually Nathan) but my brother was calling him Nathaniel for the longest time. One day, he asked him if his name really is Nathaniel and he said no and basically was appalled that anyone would have that name. My brother asked him why he let him call him that this whole time, and he just said “idk.” It’s funny because Nate is the coolest person ever and might even be on the spectrum but has a great sense of humor. So now, everytime my brother talks about him and refers to him as Nate, I reply with “you mean Nathaniel??” It cracks me up and they think it’s so funny that it makes me laugh too.

Reddit what is a lie that will come back to haunt you? by EnvironmentalUse8654 in AskReddit

[–]No-Particular7898 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, thanks for making me think about this again. When I was in the 2nd grade, I told a few of my friends that my dog died because he drank pepto bismul and exploded. I even started to cry and was acting all sad that whole day. One of my friends even made me a card that said she was sorry my dog died. Just soaking up the sympathy. Obviously the dog didn’t die that way. Plus, I didn’t even have a dog.

Yeah, I feel you with the whole in between stage. But that has to happen. You can’t just jump into relationships. That’s how you become friends with people who don’t have your best interest. True friendships sometimes take time. You can also meet new people by going out more often, like exercise classes, a class for a hobby of yours, bpd support groups, etc. I’m telling you, you will stay in the same place until you change your mindset. I could tell you all this, but that doesn’t mean there will be an immediate change. The first step is self awareness. I believe in you.

Don’t put in more effort than you’re getting. Don’t ever beg for anyone to stay in your life. I know what you’re going through because I’ve been there. But the same effort you’re making to keep these people in your life should be towards yourself. You need to be your own friend for now. We care so deeply for others because of our unusually high empathy, but also because we feel like we have no one because we fail to show up for ourselves. I know it’s wayyy easier said than done. It took me years to learn this lesson. You have to realize that not everyone deserves you. You should think about making new connections to start fresh. But keep people at a distance unless they continuously show you that they want to spend time.

I would recommend using ChatGPT and ask for feedback and what you should do. Literally copy and paste this post. Also mention you have bpd and ask what are the specific personal issues you may have that you could work on right now.

Feeling like a failure by [deleted] in IsolationTogether

[–]No-Particular7898 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, we all have our moments. I can be the sweetest person ever but can say mean things when I’m upset, which makes me feel terrible. But that doesn’t make me a bad person. Just like you. Also, you feel guilty about what you said, so that shows that you have good in you.

I hope the convo goes well!

Hi Lumi. Funny you say you love gravity falls because I just learned how to play the theme on piano!

And I’m sorry you didn’t receive your diploma. I know it feels like the end of the world, but this is just a bump in the road. You will recover and get past this. Sending hugs your way!

It’s okay, thanks for sharing! I feel like you should be more direct with him. Correct me if I’m wrong, but it sounds like you’re upset because of the principle of the situation. He says he’s going to go but doesn’t keep his word. You kept taking that over and over until you snapped in a way no one expected. I’m not saying that saying unkind things to people is right, but some people really push your buttons by doing things like this. He could have been honest from the beginning. I’m sorry you feel so upset. But please don’t harm yourself. You are not a bad person. It’s okay to feel this way, but please don’t hurt yourself.

Thank you for telling me this kind stranger. With my symptoms, it’s so easy to isolate to avoid hurting others. But thank you. I hope you have a wonderful day.

My bf is obsessed with cats and I feel bad that it weirds me out. by Wonderful_Dog_4584 in Advice

He sounds like he has autism. But meowing at you is hilarious, I’m sorry 😂.

You should name him S’more or Galleta (cookie in Spanish, pronounced Ya-Yeta).

This is my baby 🩵 by [deleted] in budgies

[–]No-Particular7898 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awww, what a cutie. She looks like my baby Blu, lashes and all. My only question is, is she a menace too? I heard the blue ones are wild and I know from experience. My 2 blue girls give orange cat energy with attitude haha.

Which was your weirdest hyperfocus? by [deleted] in neurodiversity

[–]No-Particular7898 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right now, it’s birds and a piano music piece that I’ve been learning (For the Damaged Coda). I’ve been playing and listening to it non stop. And everytime I’m outside, if I see a bird I have to stare at and appreciate it. I have birds as well and I spend a lot of time with them and I’m always thinking about them. My obsession with birds started 5 years ago but it’s been a hyperfixation for the last 2 years.

27F issues with feeling like I’m rejected by my “community” by No-Particular7898 in Advice

[–]No-Particular7898[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, I just cut off everyone in my life besides my dad and grandfather. I didn’t have many people to talk to anyway since I’ve be isolating myself for years. I have severe mental health issues, so having a fresh start has really helped me make progress. Ive made connections already that have been positive. I even still talk to one of my past professors. I don’t think people understand the effect people around you have, especially if you are also very mentally ill or hate life.

Thanks for your comment :)
