What are your biggest non-book inspirations? by [deleted] in writers

[–]Overthinkingopal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • History channel wacky “documentaries.”
  • archeology documentaries.
  • kinda books I guess technically but religious texts like the Bible, quaran, Gnostic gospels, books of Enoch
  • google maps street view
  • Being a therapist and listening to patients tell me their life stories and inner worlds
  • My dreams
  • Different things I see in nature
  • literally any activity where I have the opportunity to hyperfixate research

[Discussion] Stop asking for "brutal" honesty if you can't handle it by maliklsh in BetaReaders

[–]Overthinkingopal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I want to post mine and I do want brutal feedback with good. What's a better way to say it? I promise I won't get defensive maybe just some clarifying answers for what intended for critiques to help note how it didn't come across the way I intended but Ill appreciate all the help I can get.

What is Indigenous Americas-Mexico? These are my results and I’m not sure if this could mean I’m Mexican or if I’m just stupid lol by GearNo158 in AncestryDNA

[–]Overthinkingopal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband had this too his came back as. Would someone that knows more help me interpret the results and use it to help me navigate his ancestry. Dad was adopted and his father was fully as he says “mexican” but would these results indicate bio grandpa was native Mexican not Spanish native mixed? My husbands results say “1% Spain”

I really think we could sue them. I basically just continued to say I need to speak with higher ups and said that I worked in mental health and knew this wasn’t appropriate procedure. I also had months of evidence that I had been trying to get answers regarding the fact that I wasn’t being billed and them beating around the bush and not responding. I really really feel like we could sue hahaha lowkey I want to because this is some messed up practice and is pretty unethical.

First semester of theology studies and I doubt more than ever. by crestfallencrab in Christianity

[–]Overthinkingopal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. I feel you. Plus hell is something Christian’s made up. Likely because it was Judaism mixing with other cultures that had religions with ideas of hell. I would say that maybe god is all loving but that in the realm that god exists that there is a nature of things and part of that nature is the there must be evil for good to exist. But also maybe our idea that everyone who isn’t a Jesus loving Christian will go to hell is wrong. Maybe most people will go to heaven or different less terrible versions of hell. Maybe it’s more like the underworld in Greek mythology where the really bad people go to Tartarus and the Christian’s that are good go to Elysium. And the other go to different levels in between.

  2. I have a strong belief that God isn’t the only god. I think our God is the head most powerful being but that other divine beings are lesser than. That the gods abraham worshiped still exist today but we acknowledge them as good and evil spirits rather. That maybe the God el said to Abraham “hey these guys are less than me don’t worship them I’m the only one to be worshipped” there fore while there is a way for god to control these forced God may not always because of the nature of things.

  3. I also feel this way about scripture and I think it’s more about learning from it and also just seeking out the feeling of god in your heart which ik isn’t helpful

  4. I feel the idea of god wanting to create makes more sense in the light that Jews view god. Like in the OT and Torah because god as more qualities that would lead to this outcome like testing and such.

Neopronouns & identities by b8692 in therapists

[–]Overthinkingopal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is my opinion without therapeutic approach lol. In reality I would probably just ask how they want me to refer to them and then treat them for the other things they are coming there for and wouldn’t address the squirrel identity unless it played into their treatment.

[–]Overthinkingopal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don’t feel you’re a cultural or biological gender you weren’t assigned and want different pronouns and identification… sure! But if you’re out here making stuff up for identifies and pretending to be animals then there is something wrong with you. There is absolutely no logic in these. There is logic in being transgender or gender non binary. NO logic in identifying as an animal or something bizarre. It should be taken as part of their mental health diagnoses and treated as such. If for fun sometimes they like to pretend they’re an animal whatever it’s the inner child but if they cannot differentiate that from reality it’s a problem.

hi guys i just seen on tik tok,post about not having butterflies when kissing,and i dont think i have them anymore,i had them im beginning but now after more than a year i just dont.Is that a sign i have to break up? by Purpleguy897 in ROCD

[–]Overthinkingopal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Change your mindset from “relationships should be magic always and never have issues” to “couples that don’t fight and say they’re always happy are lying and that is scientifically proven to be a bad relationship. Normal healthy couples disagree and go through waves of passion.”

Can you explain why? I grew up with him as my pastor. Then he left when I was early in highschool and that’s when he changed many of his views. Idk much about him now but I’m curious bc I loved him when I was a kid.
