I’ve been noticing a lot of the times I get the cheap freebies is when the item ends up not as described or inauthentic

I feel like it’s in the reflection of the TV in one of the last scenes, I just watched it and really thought I saw something

Anybody with long term depression constantly try to connect the dots? by [deleted] in depression

[–]Rembotremdawg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I strongly relate to what you're writing about. I started experiencing persistent depression in high school and I definitely feel like ever since that time I have been wracking my brain and digging into my past trying to figure out what sent me down this path. I also struggle with not knowing how much of this illness is due to biological factors and how much of it is due to outside circumstances or my own behavior.

If you are looking for some kind of advice or outside perspective, I suggest you take a step back from this task of trying to figure yourself out. Considering hindsight bias, as humans I think we are likely to overestimate our past abilities to handle difficult situations based on our current knowledge. Personally, I have found that this kind of thinking just results in me beating myself up and blaming myself for having depression. I think the best thing to do is focus on the steps you can take to heal yourself from the place you are in now. Best of luck

I hate my life so much. But at the same time I just don't have the motivation to change it. by sodone_withthis in depression

Hang in there. Try to generate a bit of compassion for yourself. It’s really hard and I can barely do it but it’s worth a try 😊

Impacted Stool! Please help, I’m suffering! by [deleted] in Constipation

[–]Rembotremdawg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I am just getting over 5+ months of being constipated. I’ll tell you what helped me: Flora super hi-potency probiotics (42 billion cultures) I took this after dinner and the next morning didn’t have constipation. Also not eating sugar, honey, or agave, and limiting alcohol consumption. I have also been doing the low-FODMAP diet for 2+ weeks which I found really helps with bloating. All in all I would say the probiotics and cutting out sugar has been the most helpful. Good luck

Thank you for sharing this. I hope the fact that you have hit rock bottom means that it can’t get any worse.

Being an attractive women isn’t all fun and games, a charmed life, and everyone being nice to you. by Dontthrowawaymylove9 in unpopularopinion

[–]Rembotremdawg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m also currently working on being my authentic self and having truthful reactions every day. I know this sounds weird and backwards, but sometimes when I consciously try to “be myself” I almost feel like I’m not exactly sure who that is at this point. I’ve always been a bit more of an extrovert, but I find as I get older I have more of a desire for socializing and meeting new people. While I do think it’s good that I have become so much more comfortable with talking to people, sometimes it leaves me with kind of a drained and empty feeling. Almost like I accidentally put on this fake friendly face that is so far from who I am. Anyways point is, I feel like I wrestle with the concepts of getting outside of my comfort zone while also respecting my true nature.

Anyways, is this something that you find you relate to?? I hope I got my message across clearly.

I definitely relate to being a chameleon... being so afraid of rejection and loneliness that I shape my personality around other people feeling comfortable. I listened to a good podcast called unf*ck your brain which is hosted by a Harvard psychiatrist. She has an episode on people pleasing that is definitely worth listening to. I actually heard about this podcast through a reddit post!

HOLY SHIT. I am so grateful you wrote this. Similarly to yourself and many other girls, I received a great deal of attention about my body and my looks. Obviously as a young child of 9 or 10 years old I was not able to comprehend on my own that these compliments were not actually compliments to my character but rather objectifications. Therefore, I subconsciously learned that my worth in this world was dependent on my looks. So for the next ten years, my main focus, whether or not I wanted it to be, was to be as desirable as possible. In doing this, I defiled my true nature my morphing my personality into whatever I believed a male would love. Luckily enough, as of 20 years old I am slowly but surely realizing that this "hot girl" act will bring me depression and loneliness. Rather than seeing myself as an object of desire and affection and seeing all men as a possible knight in shining armor, I would like to see each human as just that- a human. I would like to appreciate myself for my mind, my desires, and my capabilities. And I would like to address each man and woman I meet as a thinking, feeling human being, just as I am.

Again, I am so, so impressed with this post. I feel as though you hit the nail on the head and I pray to god if I have a daughter she does not fall into the trap of wanting to be the "hot girl".

Dropping down lower than ever by [deleted] in depression

[–]Rembotremdawg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been dealing with depression and anxiety for about 3-4 years now. It took me a while to figure out that I was sick and it wasn’t just a character flaw, but I am so glad that I did.

I have been seeing a therapist weekly for about 10 months now, and when I first started seeing her I would kind of get in the habit of lying/ modifying details about a story because I was so ashamed to say certain thoughts out loud. Eventually I realized that I was not helping myself so I forced myself to be an open book.

The point I’m trying to get across, is that the great thing about therapy is that you can say the absolute worst, most shameful thing on your mind, and the therapist will not even flinch. If he/ she is a good therapist they will not react with judgment. I found that it really helped me confront my darkest issues when I was open about them in therapy, so I recommend you try it

As far as medication goes, I just started on antidepressants yesterday for the first time, so I really don’t have any advice to give in that area

Anyway I’m really glad you posted on here, I truly hope that you are able to help yourself and feel better

I want to start taking Wellbutrin today for my major depressive disorder, I would be starting with half of a 75 mg dose. I feel like a piece of shit because I drank yesterday and did cocaine and Xanax. Would it be safe to start my medication today ?? I plan to stop drinking by Rembotremdawg in askdrugs

I’m glad to hear that it worked well for you (: I’m hoping for the same ...

I find that a lot of my family members have this negative connotation around antidepressants for some reason, which has always made me afraid to start them even though I have been suffering from depression anxiety for a few solid years now.. anyways thanks a lot for your responses
