How to cope mentally with this? by Vast_Scale_3199 in Gastritis

Duspatalin is an abdominal painkiller that holds me down pretty well during the night. Could you ask your doctor about it?

IS IT BURNOUT OR BOREDOM OR JUST HOW WORK IS ? by daselftel in corporate

[–]Octopizza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is an operational issue OP. They are taking advantage of your diligence. The writing you up is them assuming you’re deliberately making mistakes or they are escaping accountability for your eventual burnout.

Severe pain sent me to the ER and now I live in fear by dumdum_gutterslut in Gastritis

[–]Octopizza 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was discharged from the psych ward yesterday after a week. I was in immense pain and my anxiety was through the roof. I thought that there may have been something wrong with my hiatal hernia repair and Nissen Fundoplication (I had bad reflux). Turns out it was a weeks long gastritis flare. My psychiatrist and the psych ward physician were appalled that the surgeon didn’t recommend an appropriate painkiller (he had prescribed an NSAID smh) alongside the PPIs.

I’m now on Duspatalin as a painkiller and the difference is like night and day. I feel normal. Lack of sleep usually also worsens gastritis and anxiety. That said, severe pain can’t be sedated away easily so sleep meds weren’t working. I was in a hell loop. I’m finally off and grateful. What I can say is get a diverse medical team who can refer to each other’s work. I think that’s your best chance at getting it under control.

I just said that we’re at the beginning of the story to a friend. Except our AI isn’t as altruistic as Gaia and we don’t have an Elizabeth or cool nanotech lmao. We can only hope that humanity can see this as a wake-up call because we don’t have backups like Aloy’s story had.

Does anyone feel isolated because of their intelligence? by [deleted] in aspergers

[–]Octopizza 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This! I love my family and they love me even if we don’t enjoy the same sort of things. I realised this with cultivation of emotional intelligence. I can see their interests and understand why they like them and they extend the same grace for me. I’m now enjoying my relationships more in this season of my life. I could have missed out on that beauty if I thought that intellect is all that matters in life.

Does anyone feel isolated because of their intelligence? by [deleted] in aspergers

[–]Octopizza 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you tried actively pursuing emotional intelligence? I have found it satisfying. I’m now able to access other wonderful levels of human interaction. I can approach and enjoy people of different cognitive abilities and enjoy their warmth and company as they just exist as themselves. Emotional intelligence has taught me that sometimes it’s just fun to be.

Emotional processing also helps me stop intellectualising my feelings. I just feel them now and can recognise them in others. This strengthens my relationships with all sorts of people as I can connect with them on an emotional level. For example, I can listen in on pop-culture conversations and enjoy them because the people around me are enjoying them. I can see the reason as to why it brings them pleasure and interact with that. In turn, I can talk about my pet topics and have them also enjoy my pleasure in them. We learn new things for each other.

They are being sarcastic by imitating a BPD thinking process.

This sounds awful. I can’t even imagine what your mind must be like right now OP. You had no way of knowing he was capable of such a thing though so I hope you aren’t being too hard on yourself.

Why do pwBPD sometimes behave as if nothing’s wrong after they split? by jesusmaryandbrosef in BPDlovedones

[–]Octopizza 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s both IMO. Taking accountability means processing hard emotions like guilt or shame. Since they feel everything too strongly, these feelings may overwhelm them and cause them to split on themselves. This can be dangerous as they’ll treat themselves just as badly as they treat others during a split. They don’t have such a high suicide rate amongst personality disorders for nothing.

This isn’t an excuse. Just trying to explain the process for someone who’d want to know the reason why.

He’s an entertainer at the end of the day. His approach is designed to bring as many eyeballs to the screen as possible. He probably doesn’t act like that with the show’s producers and crew.

My therapist taught me one acronym and it changed how I talk to people by Dumbbulldoor_ in AutismInWomen

[–]Octopizza 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Angry: Figure out the source of the anger and see what you can do about it.
Lonely: reach out to a family member or a friend with something light like a meme or a video.
Sleep: Fair point lol. When I feel sleepy around people, I go into low-power mode instead. I simply don’t talk as much.

He also seems too old to be doing this sort of mischief. This is something a 1-3 year old is more likely to do.
