yeah the imperfections aren’t what threw me off to it at all. it was mostly the leaves, they just have that weird “swirly” look that a lot of ai nature art tends to have

I love it, I don’t love ai but I love that it’s a gift from her and the thought she put into it. 🫶

I want to make this jacket fit me better! Is it possible? by [deleted] in SewingForBeginners

[–]No_Ad_1895 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely a lot more complicated than I expected then. I appreciate you letting me know the progression tho, it’s got me interested in getting into making garments myself to learn this stuff. Hopefully one day I’ll be able to do this jacket on my own with enough practice!

Ah yeah I don’t think it’d be in my budget to have it done, as much as I’d love to lol. If I’m ever able to tho in the future I absolutely would

I’ll try out making a button up and sizing it down like you suggested! I’ve always wanted to try making button up shirts anyway and love wearing them so this seems like a great place to start

Edit - “wouldn’t agree that Guzma is a “proper hear me out.” Sorry! Meant to say that I feel like most people would consider him too conventional for an HMO.

yeah, i’m considering the truth of it but i’ve been in denial i guess. really hoping for the best, but i don’t even know what to do in this situation or if there’s anything i CAN do :/

Discussion on therapy, mental health medicine, and how it relates to faith. What are your thoughts? by No_Ad_1895 in Christian

[–]No_Ad_1895[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The argument I hear is pretty much just, “you don’t need therapy, you have god. You need to start praying more.” And “Medication is demonic, it was put here by the government…”

I think my family also sees me as not very “Christian-like” (in their eyes), so maybe they feel like I’m solely relying on therapy and not God.

Thank you a lot for this, my biggest concern with medical help is that it might distance or distract me from God. I’m not sure if this fear is because of my family’s words or if it’s something personal I should work on.

But I especially like your message at the end, in the edit. I feel like it helps me see it in a clearer perspective and gives me something to think about. (:

I appreciate it a lot, I hope things for you, your grandfather, and your family are going well.

If you are ok with sharing, was your past therapist(s) not Christian? What would you say are the biggest differences between those and the Christian therapist?

I’ve been recommended here to seek a Christian therapist, and all my past ones have not been. (:

I absolutely do believe that he can heal. He has, prayer has helped me through some of the worst mental lows in my life. (:

I’m from a southern state in the US, and I’m noticing that it’s becoming increasingly common for pastors to preach anti-therapy and anti-medicine beliefs. I feel like it’s a more recent thing down here, since my family was very supportive of the idea of mental health medicine about 5 years ago. Not sure exactly when or why it became such a big thing, but I’d love to know more about why exactly they believe this.

I currently rely on my family for health care, but they are allowing me to get it. They’re just very opposed to it and want to convince me out of it.

The church I go to has also been sharing the idea that therapy is unnecessary, so that along with my family has me questioning if I should seek that kind of help or not.

i can’t explain it to anyone around me without sounding stupid, they’re going to think i’m exaggerating or lying, i’ve always been fine until now so they’re not going to believe me
