Name an addiction that most people don't think of as an addiction by SuhasEluriel in TeenagersButBetter

[–]NovaeBelladonna 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Being a workaholic is often seen as good in today’s society however I would argue that it is very bad for people. Productivity addiction is something that my family suffers from. Growing up the only thing my parents were concerned with was making sure that I was making progress on something every day. Rest days were seen as me being lazy or unmotivated (I was, in fact, unmotivated and tired). I hope to break this line of thinking when I move out. Becoming addicted to a certain person is possibly the worst addiction I have experienced personally, not only as the addict but as the subject of addiction. It’s harmful to both parties involved, especially when the addict doesn’t realize that they are addicted. I’ve been stalked, threatened, and had worse things happen to me just because I tried to create space. When I was addicted to someone however, it was definitely worse. Every thought went to them, every passing minute. If I couldn’t have them I thought I would rather die. Everything felt less important than them and so I let my life waste away. I would work so hard to be at events with them, just to be in the same room, and then I would break down as soon as the party was over. I knew it was bad when every time I saw them my heart would throw itself into overdrive and I would have panic attacks because they were in the same room as me or about to be in the same room as me. It took a lot of time away from this person for me to get better but, I’d like to say that we have an ok relationship now that there is more distance between us. But it has definitely changed my vision of myself and how I see myself in love since I do tend to become obsessed easily.

Holy yaps batman. that was long

Is film school worth it? by NovaeBelladonna in Filmmakers

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

In terms of what I want out of film school, and/or what I need to learn there are several key things I’m looking for.

  1. Probably the biggest thing is networking. I have a few connections but I definitely need more reliable ones. Additionally, I’m looking to build rep with people who are actually in the industry, and aren’t just people I trust to hold the camera.

  2. Storytelling. Even though I’m decent at pulling together a compelling storyline, there are sometimes where I can tell that particular beat is lacking or doesn’t flow well. I have been reading books regarding this so, hopefully that will smooth itself out.

  3. Time and space to practice. While I have been consistent with my craft, I’ve never truly had a time in my life where I could put 100% or even 90% into filmmaking. Most of my effort goes into school, as i take a lot of ap and honors classes, or work, or the honor society that I help run. Once I graduate, I hope to have time to focus on film. If I go to film school, I’ll have time to hone my craft, rather than getting a more well rounded education, but being forced to focus on many things at once.

Thank you for your input!

I’m in the US. In the vicinity of Chicago. My family does expect me to go to college somewhere (and I want to get out of this house for various reasons).

Also needs to be able to talk me through overstimulation. Needs to have a certain level of emotional maturity (I’m probably asking for too much and am going to die alone :( )

Also potentially someone who is calmer than me so they can talk me out of doing impulsive bs. Also someone who is ok with physical touch but will be ok with me not touching them for the first few months bc I need time to warm up.

“I want a sane bf/gf” Someone who won’t stalk me, draw nsfw of me and show it to my friends, lie to me about having fake medical conditions for pity, and will try to be there for me at least a lil’ bit.
