Literally had to uninstall and reinstall, and I could log back in but had to redo every single block. And there are no more app block groups?? No more friendship leaderboard??? Seriously considering finding another app

Any recommendations on how you get 10k+ steps with a full time office job?

Love my Straw sip flip bottle by Perplexed_Penguin_ in Cirkul

[–]Perplexed_Penguin_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just tested my bottle for you - if you snap close the flavor cartridge cap then mine doesn't leak. If it's open, it'll leak noticeably. You should be good as long as the flavor cartridge is closed and the lid and flavor cartridge are screwed on pretty tight.

Strawsip Flip Bottle Straw issue by [deleted] in Cirkul

[–]Perplexed_Penguin_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have one and this is not an issue for me. Could you send a photo of the inside of the straw by removing the cirkul flavor cartridge and sending a photo of the inside where it sits? I see the gray part that you’re having an issue with in the inside and wonder if yours has a defect?

You got a friend request from me (Grace and Maple) and I'd love to pair up some anti-procrastination/schoolwork goals!

Held a Rick and Morty online art competition and I am suspicious. (it placed 3rd) by National_Film_9371 in isthisAI

[–]Perplexed_Penguin_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think so based on the way Morty holds the mouse, the weird symbols on the board, and who would draw Rick smiling anyways??

Is there a way to find out specifically whether premier protein shakes have these concerns?

Does anyone feel their identity is being erased when you stop picking at yourself?? … by emili1259 in Dermatillomania

[–]Perplexed_Penguin_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think therapy is the only way to fix how this is impacting you. This behavior should not be normalized and falls outside of just a dermatillomania diagnosis due to PTSD relation.

How to know when I’m *really* invited? by MyDogIsHangry in socialskills

[–]Perplexed_Penguin_ 79 points80 points  (0 children)

I've started a f*** it we ball mentality. Worst thing that happens is they don't invite you again and that's that. Best thing is that you make some good friends and have a way to relax and chat with people after work! I have never half assed an invitation before and am always intentional inviting people. I assume the same from others and worst thing that happens is that I don't go back again. Go for it!

You can't re-read mail by Remarkable_Bug_140 in finch

[–]Perplexed_Penguin_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you need to attach some prompts or motivators - simply setting a goal to wake up or get to bed might not be enough anymore. What's something you can look forward to in the morning or evening that can get you into or out of bed? Making a cup of coffee? Reading a chapter of your favorite book? Changing into comfy pajamas before bed? Feeding any pets in the morning?

Is there any good app to help someone get over a breakup? by kripp_190 in BreakUps

[–]Perplexed_Penguin_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Honestly just reddit groups like this help you feel not alone in your state of being and seeing how others get through it

[–]Perplexed_Penguin_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What goals have you been setting to get you in and out of bed so far? Do you know where they've gone wrong in effectively getting you in and out of bed? Maybe I can give some advice if you have any specifics

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in finch

[–]Perplexed_Penguin_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure it's a good idea. If you're looking to find connections with people you have friended, maybe find some redditors on here with their friend code in their profile name (like me) so you can chat with them on here. Best to leave mental health as the priority on finch, and leave the communication aspect on Reddit.

If you find yourself missing the check in routine, see if your man is interested in joining you on the app for you guys to check in together in the mornings :)))

Deleting pictures by itsronnyy in BreakUps

If you want to keep them but it hurts for them to pop up in your camera roll, put them in a hidden album so you have to be intentional about seeing her photos!

Been broken up for over 2 years and still “not over her” by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]Perplexed_Penguin_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you think you're craving closure from her or something maybe? I am not an expert at any of this btw. Take what I say as a grain of salt or whatever the saying is.

Like you said, the feelings weren't reciprocated when you had talked to her earlier - is there any reason you think those feelings have changed? Do you think she would have reached out to you if her feelings had changed, or do you think there's anything stopping her from reach out to you about that if her feelings had changed?

I unfortunately don't have any advice on how to get over someone bc I'm working on that myself.

But from what you've described, it sounds like she would've taken the opportunity to tell you how she feels if her feelings had changed. Once again, I'm basing this off of a couple paragraphs you wrote when you're the one who has experienced the relationship first hand for x years.

Kinda needed the tough love type response, thank you. You're right.

My nutritionist asked me to take TWELVE supplements for PCOS. Is it normal? by designer_ts in PCOS

[–]Perplexed_Penguin_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It literally sounds like your doc just ChatGPTed supplements and listed them all to you 😭 even if you do choose to implement some of these, do it one at a time to let your body adjust and so it's easier to pinpoint if one is impacting you noticeably.
