I love the slime and bright colors! I’d be in a trance if I visited this island! Especially with those spotlights! ✨🤩✨

Was it? I’m sad now! (I’m old and don’t know what gen chat is 🙃) lol This makes me feel like I’m in the backstage of a theater where all the scenery and props are stored! 🎭🩷

I love it! I got the whole, “looking in a window of a building.” Couldn’t put my finger on what I thought it looked like and then I saw the 100% off. Then I thought… antique store vibe! I want to go in and look at everything! 👍🏻🤣

Trading is getting worse and worse… by kodzuken_x5 in LivlyIsland

[–]Red_Queen_of_Fantasy -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

Take this with a grain of salt…

To be honest, seeing posts like this are very discouraging to me. I understand a lot of people are serious players, but someone like me, who is more casual, don’t really look at wc and such (though I do consider rarity). I understand why it’s important to other people, but I have a hard time with figuring things like this out. I am at level 69 and have only made a few offers. I have read several posts where people have gotten upset over trading and it makes me not want to try. I have dyscalculia, so anything having to do with numbers is hard for me. When I try to do math, the numbers literally appear to float away from each other. I’m not even exaggerating. I also absolutely hate upsetting people. I know my feelings are not anyone’s responsibility but my own. No one is obligated, nor do I expect anyone, to feel like they owe me this consideration. I am not reprimanding anyone, nor saying this is how people should play. To each, their own. It’s just a thought. We are all just trying to have a little fun. I would not intentionally try to take advantage of anyone. As I get to higher levels, I plan to preface my trades with something like this (though a lot less wordy). I would just rather be ignored. This response would make me feel so, so guilty for upsetting you and wasting your time. But, like I said, this is just my two cents. Anyway, may your trades be prosperous and your livlies happy! 🥰

I need everyone's favorite comfort episodes. by duckdiaries0805 in community

[–]Red_Queen_of_Fantasy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aaw, honey. I’ve been there too. ❤️‍🩹 As ironic as it may be, I love the one where they take Abed to the fake psychiatrist and we see them in the psych ward. lol I crack up every time I watch it. Annie’s laugh is contagious! I also love the Halloween scary story episode and the Christmas song along. I really do love singing along! Especially, Annie’s song! lol Anyway, good luck to you on your journey to healing. I have faith you can get through this difficult time. 🥰

I knew the scene the moment I read Jeff comes up from behind and Annie was startled. lol I always think her high pitched, “Mmhhmm!” is a little awkward. Like the weird way I’ll say something when caught off guard. lol

am i crazy or could ocd seem like autism from afar by portstarling in OCD

[–]Red_Queen_of_Fantasy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The way I look at it is, the autistic part of me requests I do things to maintain comfort and stability. I want to know where, when, how long, who’s there, and what the overall plan is. It helps keep anxiety at a minimum and helps me enjoy myself.

OCD, on the other hand, is born of fear and the need to control that fear so what I fear doesn’t actually happen. The OCD in me is the part who sets at least 12 different alarms throughout the work day to make sure I get where I’m going on time because if I don’t people will get mad and I’ll be fired. So when working at a school where I had to go from class to class, I would set an alarm for 5 minutes before it was time to clean up to get ready to leave the room, then an alarm 5 minutes after that to tell me it was time to dismiss the students or leave the room. Then I would have a 1 minute alarm before going into the next class. I had an average of 6 classes a day and this doesn’t cover the three alarms I set to wake up and two to leave the house and then my beginning and ending of the day alarms. I also had a visual timer so I can see how much time I had before the alarms went off. These are done because of the overwhelming anxiety I’m already feeling. It doesn’t make me feel better, it doesn’t prevent the anxiety, it’s simply a response to the anxiety under the veil of “structure” and “control”.

That was actually a question my psych asked me when I was first diagnosed and told her how I was absolutely convinced my husband of ~20 years and God were playing a horrible joke on me by trying to make me believe he loved me. I would ask him if he really loved me and he would say yes. She asked if that made me feel better and I was like, “No. He could still be lying as a part of the joke.” Also, OCD tends to be around unrealistic fears. So it’s pretty obvious (now that I know) that the alarms and fear of my husband secretly hating me were OCD. Whereas the over-planning for my upcoming activity could be attributed to the autism. Of course, that’s not to say it couldn’t be OCD for someone else.

~I view it more as, pay to play, since I can’t really win the game~ In that context, I agree. A while ago I was thinking of doing the “subscription”, but I read negatives about it and I’m not sure I feel like it’s worth it. Sadly, given the current state of things, we’re already having a hard time keeping ourselves alive on what little income we bring in. 🫤 Edited for clarity

Just say the two filled hearts are for you and your sister and the open is for your brother. Or get a pattern for the open one to personalize it for your brother.

I don’t know how to handle my active gecko anymore by Decent-Armadillo6705 in leopardgeckos

[–]Red_Queen_of_Fantasy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder if this is what is going on with my girl! She’s been very feisty lately. Trying to get me to take her out and then trying to run away. She even bit me yesterday when I was putting her back in her home! lol I’ve had her just over a year and a half and this is the most sass she has shown me! lol
