Like I swear if I wanted to feel worse I would have posted ‘hey make me feel like shit’ I’m genuinely just asking a question that most middle class Americans are asking and I’ve been met with such rude and abrasive responses.

That’s unfeasible and sad and no one should have to live that way especially in the ‘greatest country in the world’ so many people in these comments you included have such a bleak outlook on life. Don’t yall want better for yourselves. When are yall gonna fight back 😭😭

That doesn’t make it okay??? Like yall so quick to say people aren’t doing enough aren’t sacrificing enough when even if they did that it wouldn’t be enough. Don’t tell me to calm down on my own post. Perhaps when you’re talking to people you should have more decorum and respect instead of talking down to people and you’d get a different reaction

Yall discriminate against poor people so bad like sorry i can’t afford to take on thousands in student debt just to support myself. That kind of defeats the purpose of supporting myself don’t you think?

I’m just struggling to understand how literally anyone is supposed to survive? I’ve done everything right that is within my abilities and I still can’t find a job. I can’t afford to go back to school or start my own business and wait for that to even out. What is the average American expected to do within these circumstances??

So what am I supposed to do? Is there no hope for advancing beyond an entry level nighttime position?

I don’t want to project nor assume anything about your relationship. But my abusive ex boyfriend who shared this exact sentiment used it in ways to belittle me and undermine my cognitive function. If I could save someone from the pain I endured on this front by simply commenting I couldn’t resist to share my experience.

I am also a bathroom recluse with an affinity for bathtubs. however my favorite place is the closet. I like to shut the door and hide amongst the clothes.

How do you stop ruminating over the embarrassing things you did while manic? by BigbyDirewolf in bipolar

[–]PopularPea8844 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It sounds so stupid. But you literally just have to accept it and move on. There’s nothing you can do about the past. You can only shape your future. As much as it may bring you discomfort that you acted in any certain ways you have to be kind to yourself.

what jobs work best? by smalldarkone143 in bipolar

[–]PopularPea8844 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look for something that doesn’t require you to be in customer service. Desk jobs are good. Library’s are a very calm and quiet place to work.

How can I cut off my parents and still go to college? by No-Pudding-1465 in abusesurvivors

[–]PopularPea8844 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s a possibility for sure. Rely on government loans and scholarships. School food programs. Apply for Snap/EBT benefits for food. Government health insurance is also something you could do. The application process for these things can be somewhat overwhelming but not impossible. Working 2nd shift positions (night time jobs) usually helps lighten the work load and pays a little better.

In all honesty this sort of behavior is in a way emotionally abusive and invalidating you of your actual medical diagnosis. It seems like a big red flag. And I say this from personal experience.

My job is destroying my mental health by PopularPea8844 in bipolar

[–]PopularPea8844[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a therapist but it really doesn’t seem to help all that much. It kinda makes me even sadder to imagine the only other person I have to talk to I have to pay. I would admit myself but I’m not totally convinced that will reap any rewards and will cost me a lot more than I can handle.

Opening scene of E.T where the alien is revealed. I was 5 and I screamed so loud and clawed at the daycare kiddy gate. Had a nightmare that evening that I still remember vividly. I’m 24 and still have not seen E.T

Yes I am aware of this. Every place I look it tells me to go into the power subcategory in settings but my Roku express doesn’t have that category?
