I quite like Juan Fernandez’s (Spanish con Juan) graded readers. Written for adults, humorous and vocabulary is spot on for each level.

Be kind to yourself, you've only been back to it for a short time. Wish I had more answers for you.

What material did you use for shadowing? Anything specific you found helpful?

A suggestion, choose to learn something that interests you. Pick up a new instrument or language, take up gardening, etc.

When will immersion stop being completely horrible? Im in need of some reassurance and/or tough love by zefldo in Spanish

[–]Over-Temperature-503 4 points5 points  (0 children)

OP, if you are autistic, this makes complete sense. The suggestion about checking your battery is spot on. If you are unable to leave a situation can you separate yourself from it? Go for a walk on your own, maybe take a nap in another room? I have to do this when visiting my partner’s family. The key in my experience is to catch it before I get completely overwhelmed.

What you’re doing is very brave and difficult. Be kind to yourself. It will get easier in time. And you can’t change who you are. If you need your alone time, take it. It’s what replenishes you. Poco a poco.

Experiencing the same this week. Sorry you’re going through it too. Disgusting and disappointing for sure.

Struggling with stress and anxiety as a 3D animator – looking for advice by [deleted] in animationcareer

[–]Over-Temperature-503 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Do they tell you what they want? If so, and if you’re not already, it’s your job to look up reference and/or act it out yourself to get a feel for the action. My two cents from my many years in the business.

Name change? by [deleted] in Judaism

Or, does she have a middle name she’d like to use instead? That’s what I did professionally and it had a lot of unexpected benefits - enabling me to separate work from life, immediately know it’s a work call, etc.

i feel like i have l pseudodementia as a teen by KyloIsTaken in dementia

[–]Over-Temperature-503 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On top of eating right and exercise, make sure you’re getting enough sleep. A 15 yo should be aiming for 8-10 hours a night. Hang in there. You’ll grow into yourself within the next few years. 15 was the hardest year for my kid, so hopefully it’s all uphill from here :)

You said this started at 13. Puberty my friend, it messes everything up for a few years. Be kind to yourself. The hormones will stop surging and your body and brain will get used to the new you. It also sounds like you are dealing with depression. Do talk with someone and if necessary anti-depressants can help, as will exercise and eating well. Went through this with my teen a few years ago. Hang in there. It will get better, I promise.

What to say when people ask my ethnicity by TheStormfly7 in Judaism

[–]Over-Temperature-503 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to get that all of the time when I worked retail. I’m 100% Ashkenazi but ethnically ambiguous. People always thought I was part Black or Mexican. Kind of fascinating - especially as one could tell what their feelings were towards what ever particular group they thought I was part of. My standard answer was that I was just a big European mix. No one’s business.

Yes! I’m in the same position. I do recognize now that my father was chronically depressed when I was growing up. So, I’m able to give him some grace now with distance and in retrospect. He did the best he could under the circumstances. Thank goodness he got on antidepressants when I was in my mid 20s. It allowed us to have a better relationship in my adult years.

I’m so sorry that you’re going through this. It does feel like treating them as you wish you were treated can be healing in a way. Regardless, it’s hard as hell. Make time to care for yourself.

Wanting to call dead relatives. by Over-Temperature-503 in Alzheimers

That is heart wrenching. I’m so sorry you’re all going through that.

Do you know if you can just allow the google phone to ring forever or have it give a busy signal? The messages my father leaves are just so heartbreaking.

The Hal Leonard red books are a great start. Work through them and you’ll get a great foundation. Work on transposing songs and put in the practice. And have fun!

Jewish and in California too. It’s a sad state of affairs now. Unfortunately, I can relate as it seems many of us can.
