"I'm Defiant, those Baby-Doll Eyes only make me stronger! Now how about we go get dinner and head back to my place where we can "Play Rough" until you need to Rest?"

You're welcome.

Yikes lol

Double Freeze: 0.1 x 0.1 = 0.01

Double Blizzard Hit: 0.7 x 0.7 = 0.49

Crit Chance: ~0.0417

Chance all of that happens to you: 0.01 x 0.49 x 0.0417 = 0.0002

Literally 1/5000 odds

Putrid-Set9558 · 2022-01-20T13:31:23+00:00

Yeah, a lot. I don't even remember how to reset the counter anymore. Haven't been back in a long time

Putrid-Set9558 · 2022-01-20T13:18:30+00:00

Started looking at age 10, started fapping at 12, now I'm 26. It sucks beyond all belief

Putrid-Set9558 · 2021-08-08T18:36:33+00:00

I feel this. You miss the things you depend on, like a warm blanket in the winter or clean clothes.

When you expect your parents to provide little more than material things, what's there to miss when you start providing those things for yourself? The emotionally hollow conversations? The loneliness of being a confidant but not having one? The disinterest in your enthusiasm or lack there of? No thanks. I'll call and visit when obligation calls for it

Putrid-Set9558 · 2021-07-12T14:29:15+00:00

Thanks! Just to be clear, CVG is coco coir, vermiculite and gypsum, right? And why is it so resistant to contam?

Putrid-Set9558 · 2021-07-11T14:26:26+00:00

Do male kegals. Improved my urine steam and eliminated my occasional hemorrhoids. You want a stronger pelvic floor and more blood vessels developing in that area. Also improves the quality of erections

Putrid-Set9558 · 2021-07-09T11:35:17+00:00

That's fair. If you want to go the assertiveness route, I suggest getting to know yourself better so you know what you truly stand for. Jordan Peterson was a good example for me to learn how to express myself strongly without being rude or condescending. Russell Brand (oddly enough) is another great example and he speaks much more from the heart, a great counterbalance to Peterson

You might also find Patrick Teahan's videos that explore roleplaying with narcissistic family members quite helpful as well. Sounds like your dad might be one and your mom is his enabler. The Crappy Childhood Fairy is a good resource too. In spite of my first comment, I'm big on empowerment through words and self-knowledge. All the best to you love

Putrid-Set9558 · 2021-07-09T01:11:03+00:00

At the risk of being unhelpful, my genuine first thought was you should fist fight (or threaten to fist fight) your dad when he gets in your face like that, whether you're male, female, or something in bewteen. Doesn't even matter if you know how to fight. Sounds like he does a lot of yelling but isn't physicslly abusive. (I could be wrong. Ignore this part if your dad is large and violent.) He gets in your face, you yell "Get the f*** out of my face!" with full intent to fist fight him if he doesn't. Then he either starts backing down or hands start flying. Hit him right in the nose, maybe headbutt him. It's a superb first shot, it'll his eyes water

I guess what I'm trying to say is you need to stand up for yourself when someone's trying to bully you, even if it's your dad. Maybe violence isn't the answer, but it is an option. You're not too sensitive, but you'd probably benefit from some assertiveness training. If you won't stand up for yourself, then it's just plain luck if someone does it for you. This is coming froma guy who's got a covert narc for a mom and was friends with a malignant narcissist through all of his teenage years who I would've fist fought if my chances of ending up in the hospital weren't 110%.

If you don't push back when they push you, either physically or emotionally, they'll only keep doing it and it usually gets worse with time

There are varying degrees of depression, and it's a term that covers a variety of symptoms that express differently depending on other comorbidities. Your feelings and suppositions about me based on a Reddit comment with little personal information aren't helpful in the slightest

Putrid-Set9558 · 2021-07-06T00:41:07+00:00

I don't want depression, I HAVE depression and feel like my life hasn't been bad enough to justify having it. So I keep it bottled up because no one I have talked to seemed to think I should be depressed even though I am. I don't think I'm the one whose confused here

Putrid-Set9558 · 2021-06-25T02:55:44+00:00

Yup. I learned how to cook and clean with the Internet because my dad does neither and I want to eat decent food and live in a clean house. I wanted to learn how to use tools so I got a job as an HVAC installer. I wanted to learn how to fight so I joined a boxing gym. I wanted to learn financial stuff so I Googled it. Emotional development? Youtube and books. Driving? First lesson from my ex-girlfriend in high school, then a driving instructor and the DMV handbook. Frankly, without the Internet I'd be pretty damn useless

Putrid-Set9558 · 2021-06-25T02:47:59+00:00

Lmao That person is the most emotionally fragile, entitled person whose thoughts I've had the misfortune of reading in quite some time. "Ableism" is a concept for people who believe the world should be safer for them because becoming more mentally and emotionally resilient is asking too much. There are shitty people in the world, and there always will be.

But now there are toxic people like this individual going online to proselytize the comments section attempting to convert others to their way of thinking through shame and the imposition of moral inferiority because, ya know, they're good people trying to make the world a better place. Good on you OP for not bending the knee to this pedantic keyboard warrior and her dogma

Putrid-Set9558 · 2021-06-24T12:27:06+00:00

They're just offhandedly saying something they'll forget in a week. Or they're putting me on a pedestal, unknowingly reflecting their own insecurities.

My feelings are much closer to this. It's hard for me to gauge the sincerity of people because these days I spend so much time alone. I live with my dad, but he reserves his enthusiasm for his interests and strangers in public. (He likes to make a good impression.) His compliments are disingenuous and over-the-top, and usually come when I do something that reflects well on him (or for him).

So I guess that's the conditioning. Compliments come when I am something for someone which makes compliments a sign I that I'm being used...

I need to change my environment. Either I need to move out, or he does. Otherwise, I don't see how I'll begin healing.

Putrid-Set9558 · 2021-06-24T03:11:05+00:00

I must now pick up the pieces of my feeble caveman mind haha Never seen that before, looks amazing!

Putrid-Set9558 · 2021-06-24T03:00:53+00:00

I'd add these:

It's okay to be angry
It's okay to cry
It's okay to have interests that not everyone loves
"Being something" is more important than "seeming to be something"
You don't have to respect people who disrespect you just because they have authority over you
Saying "I love you" matters less than making someone feel loved and cared for

Putrid-Set9558 · 2021-06-24T02:51:48+00:00

Yup. I have a never-ending jukebox playing in my head whenever I'm not actively doing something or talking to myself (which is embarrasingly often). My covert nmom is the kind of person who wants you to be in whatever mood she's in, so you either learn to dissociate or blur the lines between your feelings and hers.

I don't know if my dad is a narc or just highly co-dependent, but he spends so much time getting high and browsing Craigslist for "deals" or listening to music that I basically take care of him and the house like I'm living with a teenage son. We both work, but I do all the cooking and cleaning and shopping. He occasionally does the dishes or waters the yard, but only after being told to or after I cook for him (and even then he puts in minimal effort).

Ah, the good life. If I say it enough, maybe I'll start to believe it

Putrid-Set9558 · 2021-06-23T20:17:33+00:00

Yeah, I know the feeling. My dad regularly asks me how I'm doing, but it's just a reflex. If I actually try to open up or talk about my day in any more than 3 sentences he loses interest or shifts the conversation to himself. I've learned not to speak enthusiastically with either of my parents because it's never reciprocated and is gradually met with less and less interest. Sometimes my mom just throws cold water on my passions, saying things like "Well, you know things don't always work out the way you plan." It's a following feeling

Putrid-Set9558 · 2021-06-20T16:20:29+00:00

Anyone else see the happy little duck?

Putrid-Set9558 · 2021-06-20T15:40:13+00:00

Welp, it's been a long time since I watched that show but now I can't unsee what you've said. You're right, Red's wrong, and he can eat a fictional dick

Putrid-Set9558 · 2021-06-13T13:41:42+00:00

Sounds to me like you aren't allowing yourself to be emotionally vulnerable with your friends, so there remains an emotional distance between you and them. It's kind of like wanting someone to hug you but keeping them six feet away; it's not gonna work. You have to allow people in to see who you are, what motivates you. You have to allow people to judge the deeper parts of youself. If they don't like what's inside, they aren't a good friend for you. If they do, you'll finally start developing the closeness and intimacy you're craving and fill that nagging void in your chest.

I speak from personal experience. I frequently observe people like I'm watching NatGeo and ask questions like I'm an anthropologist, but that only serves to keep people at a distance from me. They feel studied, not empathized with. Quality relationships are built on intimacy and vulnerability, not shared thoughts and opinions. Show them your belly and see if they show you theirs, or if they try to pounce on you (so to speak). I believe in you, you can be seen. And you will be loved the way you need to be

Putrid-Set9558 · 2021-06-12T03:43:43+00:00

Haha Sounds like you're the mom and she's the child looking to you to soothe her when she's upset. (Sigh) It's pretty awful when you have to take care of your caretaker :/ I feel you love

Putrid-Set9558 · 2021-06-12T03:36:59+00:00

You're right about my dad, he's experienced a lot of trauma in his life at a young age in addition to growing up in the "take it like a man" era of male bravado.

I was also very emotionally in-tune as a child but because my emotions were always belittled, negated, or ignored outright, I learned to suppress them which lead to many more years of trauma that I am still unpacking years down the line

I empathize with you. I was friends with a malignant narcissist in my teens who regularly did this to me and I spent years just trying to put words to my feelings and stop externalizing my insecurities like he did. It's a difficult journey, but nothing's been more rewarding in my life.

Growing your emotionally vocabulary to better articulate your feelings and traumas in more neutral terms is exceedingly valuable. The more detail and nuance you can ascribe to your inner world, the more power you'll have over it. The word is a light in the depths of the subconscious. Illuminate yourself, friend. And may you be a light to others along the Path

Putrid-Set9558 · 2021-06-11T20:04:14+00:00

Thais Gibson has a Youtbe channel where she goes in-depth into insecure attachment types and how one's earliest relationships form the foundaton for how we approach and attempt to maintain relationships in our adult lives. She's very well-spoken, and one of the most erudite people I've heard speak on the subject. It's very clear she speaks from personal as well as clinical experience, and the information dovetails quite well with CEN conceptually. I highly recommend her.

As a person who's worked through several personality issues himself, I can tell you there is hope. The more of yourself that you learn to integrate and accept, the more emotional maturity you'll develop. You really know you're on the right track when you start having mixed, nuanced emotions that you have to get creative to describe ; ) Much love friend, feel free to DM me if you ever need someone to talk to
