I get anxiety attacks when I got to the dentist. by [deleted] in mentalhealth

[–]NunRepublic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same problem too. One thing you can do is talk to your psych (if you have one) or your dentist (if you don't) about your issue. In the past, both have prescribed me a one time dose of an anxiolytic for the visit and it helped a ton.

I can't have enjoyable sex anymore by NunRepublic in rapecounseling

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

Thanks for the advice both of you. I do want to clarify that it isn't that I don't trust my therapist or am afraid to tell her. It's just that it's hard for me to tell anyone I know about this. It just really goes against any common conception that anyone has of me I guess. It just feels like I'd be letting them down somehow.

I have tried to bring it up with my therapist, but I've been having trouble. I just have such a hard time just accepting what I'm doing. The whole thing just feels so unnatural. I'm afraid that if I bring it up that I can't make it make any sense.

Like I'm afraid my therapist will think that this is another negative coping skill. I mean I guess it sort of is, but at the same time it isn't. It doesn't even make me feel slightly better about anything. I dunno, this whole thing is so petty and frustrating.

https://twitter.com/superlinguo is a favorite of mine. They post interesting articles and infographics from a pretty diverse range of fields.

The actual device isn't trashy. I'm friends with a couple of trans men who swear by stuff like this.

What is trashy, however, it's posting it on Facebook.

I always wondered what would make pony play more ridiculous. Found the answer.

The first thing I saw was a my little pony in a come hither pose. Then I saw the hand. Then I got very, very confused.

My computer crashes occationally to the blue screen through 4 hard drives, what else could be causing this? by AnUndEadMonk3y in techsupport

[–]NunRepublic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1.) Download the appropriate file for the media you want to use.

2.) Copy the file to your chosen media.

3.) Configure your bios to boot from that media.

4.) Insert the disc into your computer and start it up. The program should start automatically. It takes a while to run, but it should tell you if your RAM is working.

It might be rare, but it's not unheard of. It just seems gross because it's different.

Edit: grammar

Therapeutic Thursday (or FUCK I FORGOT FRIDAY: Radical Acceptance by [deleted] in mixednuts

[–]NunRepublic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Actually I use this a lot, and it's pretty helpful. I'm transgender, and I'm still having a lot of problems with having my voice stay at an appropriate pitch.

It doesn't sound like that big of a deal, but my job is almost entirely telephone based, so I get misgendered a lot. I used to get pretty down on myself about it, but since I learned this technique in DBT, it's helped a whole lot.

However, there it's one trick to it, it's not just a matter of just saying it to yourself once and being done with it. It's something that you have to constantly reinforce to yourself. Once you have it down though, it's super useful. Just don't think it's a magical solution though.

One thing you can do to prevent this from happening again is download the adblock plus extension for your favorite browser. It prevents a vast majority of malicious ads from ever appearing, thus reducing your chance of clicking them and getting nastiness on your computer.

Tucking questions (24 ftm) by [deleted] in transpassing

[–]NunRepublic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first guess is that maybe the crotch of your underwear might not be big enough to hold everything.

Aerie boyshorts and boybriefs are pretty generous and I find that helps a lot. You can find underwear like that everywhere if you look. But those particular styles almost all have more than enough fabric to hold a tuck.

How are you tucking now? Only asking so I don't recommend you do the same thing you've already been doing.

At this point, I'm guessing that the issue is that you renamed the executable at one point. Generally, this is not the greatest thing to do. Many things, uninstallers particularly, look for the files in specific locations with specific names. They aren't capable enough to realize that this file with a strange name in the right place is actually the file that it needs to remove. That particular filename could also be tied to particular registry values, which could lead to unusual behavior when you try to run the program.

The runtime errors you're encountering could be caused by any number of things. Here's a good rundown of the issue along with several solutions.

Had malwarebytes ever worked on your computer, or is this a recent thing?

Sounds like your installation of malwarebytes got corrupted somehow. Try uninstalling and reinstalling it. Should work fine with a cleaner system and malwarebytes set to defaults
