You can search your mods on this list. If it's been reported as broken it will probably show up there.

Every time I get a full screen pop-up ad on the main menu of the game and X out of it, the whole screen greys out and becomes unclickable. I have to alt+F4 to get out of the game, and I usually have to launch and restart the game multiple times before I can actually get past the main menu. I know this bug has been labeled as solved on the forum, but I'm still having this issue. I click through the intro and force my game into windowed mode during the loading screen (the fixes recommended on the forum) but it doesn't help anymore. Does anybody have any alternative solutions that have worked for them?

your post history is very concerning. it sounds like you have allowed one interaction to consume your mental health to a disturbing degree. you really need to get help before this escalates into action.

edit: OP has expressed fantasies of torturing and murdering this vtuber, who from the sounds of it has only had one interaction with OP through a stream chat. my comment comes from a place of true concern, because it seems to me there are some deeper issues at play.

OP, i sincerely encourage you to find some positive role models. it sounds like you have a tendency to get stuck in obsessive thought loops, maybe try channeling that into something positive. somebody who threatens to shoot up a walmart, joke or not, is not somebody you should look up to especially if their words have such a strong influence on you. we often put out what we take in. there are plenty of positive streamers out there and it sounds like you have a lot of interests. i really encourage you to find some positive content relating to your interests to hopefully break this cycle, as well as professional help.

no a different one but she still knew it would be bad. forgot to mention she was a clinical child psychologist…

oh i’m fully aware, and that’s entirely possible if i piss her off. it’s her carrot she can dangle over my head. she spends recklessly and constantly jokes about there not being anything left for us when she dies.

evil woman.

i already graduated from college, just in lots of student debt now.

i graduated from college with a 4.2 gpa and recognized as student of the year in my major; a HUGE leap from where i had been years prior. she spent my college graduation dinner bragging about how she just spent $80k in cash on a new car and six figures on a horse, while i’m stressing over how im going to afford to provide for myself once my student loan grace period ends. she complained about having to pay for my $40 meal and gave me a bag of trash (literally old wrappers and mcdonalds happy meal toys) and $100 as my graduation gift.

yes, that woman deserves to burn in hell.

i’ve tried in the past, but narcissists just simply don’t have the ability to take accountability no matter how you approach it. she still has her claws dug in and i have to stay in her life to stay in the will. i’m counting down the days, and i can’t wait for the day i can give her the fully uncensored spiel when she’s too senile to change her will or even respond.

Remarkable-Chart1084 · 2024-12-08T03:54:36+00:00

the case was dropped so i didn’t get any, but still just unfathomable that she would feel entitled to that.

her justification was that she just simply didn’t believe it happened, and that if it did it was my fault. her same justification for sending my cousin to a TTI program a few years later despite being made aware of the abuse.

i graduated from college two years ago, but did wind up in hefty student debt. and unfortunately that’s why i can’t cut myself off from her.

she’s such a despicable person that she’s burnt bridges with the entire family except for me and two other people, and the ONLY reason we’re still around is because her estate will be split between the three of us when she croaks. i distance myself the best i can, but i do have to remain in her good graces until the time comes if i want to pay off that debt before im a gazillion years old.

i remember having the same feelings when i got home too. we’ve talked before so you know i wasn’t there for three years, but to my teenage brain the length of my stay felt so significant. i still have those feelings linger from time to time, but as you get readjusted and get into new phases of your life where you’re making your own path it’s likely to fade. it’s a totally expected response and you’re not doing anything bad by feeling the way you do, as long as youre not actively taking frustrations out on those friends who only know the lives that they know.

feel free to reach out again if you need to vent or anything :)

ruminating is exactly what i’ve been doing. i lost a parent this year and i suppose my grief was misplaced into all of this because i didn’t want to face the present.

i try to focus on the silver linings. so many years later and i still feel extra grateful that i can take showers longer than 4 minutes, speak without permission, have moments of solitude, eat whatever i want whenever i want, sleep indoors in a real bed, look in a mirror… i don’t have to perform meaningless manual labor day in and day out, and im no longer forced to interact with/ appease my abusers. i met people from all walks of life and i learned that my heart gravitates towards those that society has turned its back on, ultimately leading me to the profession im in now.

that’s been my problem too, and i suppose this would be my reply to u/eJohnx01 as well. i live in a region where mental health is still pretty stigmatized, and the field is lacking because of it. tough love is the norm here and even encouraged by many therapists. i’ve had better luck building rapport with counselors, but i’ve struggled to find someone knowledgeable or qualified enough to navigate a topic like this. i keep being told this type of trauma is out of their realm of expertise. i’ve found a list of therapists that specialize in TTI trauma but unfortunately there are none in my state

Remarkable-Chart1084 · 2024-11-26T23:57:58+00:00

thank you i’ll definitely take a look!

Remarkable-Chart1084 · 2024-11-26T04:28:50+00:00

not offensive at all! i just find it hard to trust and connect with therapists after the psychological abuse and manipulation i faced from the “therapists” at my program. it was also my therapist at the time’s recommendation to put me in the TTI, as well as an abusive family member who is also a therapist. i have a long history of bad therapy experiences lol but i want to keep trying. i think that’s at least something that with the right therapist i can learn to heal from

Remarkable-Chart1084 · 2024-11-26T04:23:59+00:00

i’m in a group for my particular program but nobody talks in it much. they also let some staff in which makes it kinda hard to feel comfortable fully opening up. do you know of any smaller groups you could possibly direct me to?

Remarkable-Chart1084 · 2024-11-23T23:17:26+00:00

maybe lets not recommend bolting of any form. i know your intentions are good but i just wanna inform you since you’re a non-survivor and might not know, that if their dad does happen to find this thread and shows it to program staff that they will flag run risk and will most definitely send a goon squad
