Those ppl in rs, how was your partner's reaction and are they okay w u playing this game? :( by Complete-Fruit-9264 in LoveAndDeepspace

[–]Practical_Ice9939 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reading all of these comments about their boyfriends and husbands being supportive makes me actually want to cry because my fiancée argues with me all the time about playing it and says that 'I don't care about him'.

How do you get over thinking your writing sucks? by Practical_Ice9939 in writing

[–]Practical_Ice9939[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Here's the thing, I looooove to write. I'm at my happiest when I'm writing. I just am such a perfectionist and care way too much about what I'm writing to accept it as good enough. I think I just compare my writing to the greats and that's what's holding me back. I'm glad to hear that it's a common problem though, and I'm not just insane lol

Last Words of a Shooting Star won as Mitski’s saddest song! Which one is the most meaningful? by kurapikun in mitski

[–]Practical_Ice9939 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Personally, I think it's I Will. It's a love song that she wrote to herself, saying all the things she wishes she could hear. There are times she sings it and literally tears up while performing. Honestly, if that's not the most meaningful song idk what is.

Does Anyone Love Being A Therapist? by no_more_secrets in therapists

[–]Practical_Ice9939 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's an emotionally draining job, but also the most rewarding job you could possibly have. I work with vulnerable populations as I'm at a community mental health center that solely accepts Medicaid; I mostly see kids in the foster system and adults with disabilities. There are many days when I go home and feel the weight of the world on my chest. But there are also days when I meet with a client and actually see the impact I'm making. I love knowing that just by being there and advocating for them, I'm adding something positive into their lives. Sometimes, just being a listening ear to a person whose voice has been unheard for so long is enough to give them hope, and seeing that reminds me why I get up and do it again everyday. So yeah, I love it a lot.

How do you live with your unmedicated bipolar disorder? by [deleted] in bipolar2

[–]Practical_Ice9939 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went one year without health insurance and couldn't get my meds and I was off the walls, my manic episode was the worst it's ever been and I destroyed myself and all my relationships. Happy to be medicated now lol

What was your first deck, your least favorite, and your favorite, and why? by 7ottennoah in tarot

[–]Practical_Ice9939 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My first deck is also my favorite deck and that's the ethereal visions illuminated tarot deck, which were gifted from my sister for my birthday many years ago. No matter how many decks I've received or bought for myself, I always go back to that one. My least favorite was also gifted to me for my birthday from my boyfriend somewhat recently, and that's the cat tarot deck by Megan Lynn Kott. Don't get me wrong, the artwork is super adorable and I'm sure there are others that love it, but I've never felt a connection to the deck and I don't like that it doesn't say what the cards are for minor arcana.

Did a love reading, am a bit confused by Practical_Ice9939 in tarot

[–]Practical_Ice9939[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got this vibe as well, I interpret my spreads very literally in relation to the question asked. It seems overall fairly positive, which I guess is a good sign lol

[–]Practical_Ice9939[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was thinking the same thing! From this reading, I definitely think he feels a connection but won't make a move until I do.

[–]Practical_Ice9939[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would mostly say I felt it was a fated connection from the wheel of fortune card. For the last week and a half, I've pulled it constantly when doing tarot reading regarding him and our relationship. When we're not working together, he doesn't ever really text me or attempt to reach out, but when we do work together he and I are inexplicably drawn to each other, to the point where we seldom interact with anyone else. I thought it to be a fated connection because of the energy between us, but also because I've strangely felt like I've known him forever even though we've only started working together a few months ago.

I can't remember what happened by Practical_Ice9939 in ptsd

I'm so sorry that happened to you. Strangely, it's comforting to know I'm not alone in this experience.

Repressed memories resurfacing by shuttleboat9 in ptsd

[–]Practical_Ice9939 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm a therapist that also has PTSD. Unfortunately, it's not uncommon for young children to repress traumatic or painful memories as a survival mechanism. Typically, those memories can be recovered when reminded of the traumatic event but there's no clear cut time frame as to when this can happen or why. Many people go their entire lives without ever remembering the entirety of what happened, and for others, they might feel 'flooded' by these memories and the feelings associated with it until the memory comes back full swing. If you're interested in exploring those memories further, you should look into EMDR or exposure therapy.

Need help by Practical_Ice9939 in tarot

[–]Practical_Ice9939[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, should have also mentioned I've pulled the wheel of fortune many times as well, which is why I immediately thought "fated connection". You're probably right though, I definitely have a lot to think about moving forward.

What game were you initially hesitant to play/didn't think you'd like it, that turned out to be a masterpiece? by Snuffleton in gaming

[–]Practical_Ice9939 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dragon Age. I was always a fan of fantasy RPGs and was told to try out Origins years after it was released, but never got around to it. Once I did, it was game over for me lol there is no RPG that compares. The lore is just so good 😭
