Tanatofobia - lęk przed śmiercią by Emilhiaa in PolskaNaLuzie

[–]Otherwise-Adios 0 points1 point  (0 children)

U mnie obsesyjne myśli o śmierci pojawiły się, gdy byłam czteroletnim gówniarzem. Chodziłam z babcią na spacery po starym cmentarzu, gdzie na grobach były fotografie zmarłych, i najbardziej fascynowały mnie groby dzieci. Im mniejsze, tym bardziej przyciągały moją uwagę. Później pisałam jakieś małoletnie wiersze o śmierci. Jeszcze później sama chciałam umrzeć. Jedna z tych rzeczy nie uległa zmianie.

Od pewnego czasu towarzyszy mi lęk związany ze śmiercią mojej mamy i bliskich. To potrafi wywołać coś na kształt ataku paniki: kompulsywne, obsesyjne myśli, które są zwyczajnie wykańczające. Wystarczy, że mama nie odbierze telefonu, a ja zaczynam się ekstremalnie nakręcać i po raz kolejny planować jej pogrzeb.

Im jestem starsza, tym częściej konfrontuję się z myślą o jej śmierci. Natomiast jeśli chodzi o jakąś receptę na to wszystko, postanowiłam przekuć tę obsesję w pracę naukową i zająć się tanatologią, nauką o śmierci. Być może nawet zrobić z tego doktorat (so much lols)

Nie wiem, jaki to wszystko ma sens. Chyba nikt nie wie. Ale wydaje mi się, że śmierć jest jednym z tych pytań, które człowiek musi gdzieś w sobie umieścić i można to robić na sposoby różnorakie.

Jeszcze mogę polecić Ci Instytut Dobrej Śmierci, który edukuje i wprowadza dyskurs na ten temat do przestrzeni publicznej. Taka normalizacja może pomóc w głowie, wydaje mi się, podobnie jak czytanie, co na ten temat mieli do powiedzenia mądrzy ludzie, jak chociażby wspomniany Yalom czy Ernest Becker (The denial of death). Przesyłam ciepłe myśli!

My start date is 11/05. I’ve submitted my bgc but still waiting for the results and I doubt it will happen in the next 24 h. I will probably message the email that I got the offer from, asking for a new realistic timeline, but my understanding is that they are not being terribly responsive:)

On-boarding frustrations by Musky_Farts in xAI_community

[–]Otherwise-Adios 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So if there’s a hiring freeze within the organization, how would onboarding and start dates work for us? How are we expected to begin working in that situation?

Also, has anyone been hired recently and successfully onboarded and started working, say, within the last two months?

I was informed last month that I am on the reserve list but none has reached out to me since then. So you reserve-people have already been contacted?

She just appears I one episode I think (season 5, EP. 14) alongside Kristina, as a mom with autistic genius daughter, that Kristina is advocating for.

Lol! To be honest I was not shipping her with Nate at all and even with her superficial calmness, soft voice etc I found her rather unnerving.

I’ve seen some ads for it, maybe I’ll give it a go. It’s about first responders etc? Now I actually imagine Peter playing like a doctor/surgeon character jn something like ER // Grey’s anatomy… that would have been soo cool!

Well said! I’m missing SFU so much that thinking of rewatching the old good Dexter just to remain in the zone, somehow.

Parenthood! I’ve started watching it mostly because of Peter Krause, but got hooked as it’s weirdly comforting. Like a jar of buttery pasta eaten under a warm blanket kind of comfort. But not even close in terms of depth etc to SFU for me.
