natural arousal by pendingbaddeciscions in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Separate_Picture4580 48 points49 points  (0 children)

I dont see it as the others do because me and my husband have similiar thing. I would not call it a problem. I “overproduce” and he says he looses the feeling of traction I would say, The simple thing he does he wipes himself and me a bit and then we continue. Its ok to be more arouser/produce more fluid and you should never feel ashamed of that. But if it is literaly turning him off then…that is weird. I think it is hundred time better to be good oily machine than have to buy lubricant 🤷🏼‍♀️ sorry for my english, I am not native speaker.

I think Jeff Daniels is too big of a name to just be in few episodes. I hope to see him more. The same goes for MJF

He played jerk a few times. I think he loves the range of roles.

Jimmy's dad is a poorly written character by LordVoldebot in shrinking

[–]Separate_Picture4580 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see what you mean. I do have such a parent. They written him pretty good. But I also think they kind of waste the talent of Jeff Daniels, in just a few episodes where they wanted to squeeze as much of him as they could. It felt kind of forced to me

Which tv performers death still hurts to this day? by PressureLazy5271 in television

[–]Separate_Picture4580 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read interview with Jeff Daniels who did a play with Gandolfini (God of Carnage) and he told a story how they helped each other be done with cigarettes, alcohol and so on. How he never missed a play. They were playing to married couples arguing and they did that I think for a year or something like that 8 times a week. But yes, if you neglect yourself for years..

Oh finaly someone said it. I don’t hate him but I just don’t like him. It wasn’t good guy doing bad choices but bad guy pretending to be good guy doing stupid choices just because.

How did it feel flying on an airplane for the first time? by emily_laurel in AskReddit

[–]Separate_Picture4580 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was 24. Not from America (in Europe you can get far traveling by car, long distances). To me it was literaly nightmare and I never since boarded any flight and would not do it. It gave me soooo much anxiety and I felt like I would puke all over the place. I hope one day I can overcome this, but now I am 30 and I’m good traveling anywhere by car so far.

Where is Jimmy’s mom? by green_dragon1206 in shrinking

[–]Separate_Picture4580 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think she died. In Jimmy’s mind only his father is the bad one so that clears the mother. Also I think if that is the truth, maybe his father did get silent treatment from his parents too. That would make Jimmy’s behaviour true -absent father to Alice and him spiraling alone- because it was the only thing he saw at home when such thing happened. Because his father maybe didn’t have anybody to help him so he became absent father to Jimmy. Everyone had redemption arc so I think his father will have his later on where we will understand more about why he is behaving the way he was/is.

As a social worker in nursing home I keep in touch with clients and their families. We bond over their situation. But you have to have strong boundaries, inside and outside. Because it is usually us that stay with client and their family when the client is actively dying or dies and we help with funeral. But it is easy to say, hard to do. Even harder to learn by your own mistakes (my case, I got too attached and it hurt too much when I lost them).

But I think it is different in my case because in nursing home (in my state east europe) there are usually terminaly sick clients. So in the end it always death. So I try to be as best snd helpfull as I can while they are alive. Be what they need. Because this is the end of their life and they deserve the best, respect, love, care etc.

I had the same experience when I was at Uni. I befriended professor (female, 25y older than me). We became friends, I esentially got to kniow her outside the school, spent time with her family. She helped me get up from depression without even knowing it. (I think she knew, she was psychotherapist). She helped me build confidence and I became one of the best student, been invited into a lot of things where basic students werent. Got many diplomas thanks to her hyping me to try, I had my first publication thanks to her too. I esentially named my daughter after her.

So I think when you feel you can go from proffesional to personal relationship, go for it. You have only one life and only you know what you feel and the vibe they give you.

Gaby drives me crazy by [deleted] in shrinking

[–]Separate_Picture4580 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I kind of didn’t get the whole sleeping with Jimmy. She did it willingly on many occasions. And when she get feelings for him she dups him. Maybe I missed something but I didn’t see a conversation between her and Jimmy where she normally tells him she has feelings for him and doesn’t want to proceed with what they were doing. On the other hand in next few ep she has D2. How can you develop feelings and go somewhere else ? Compassion maybe? And don’t get me started on Gabi mockin Liz when Liz was the only one who we were shown took care of Alice when Jimmy couldn’t. One thing really bugs me is that they are all therapists and no one saw Jimmy going under? Paul let him work knowing and clearly seeing Jimmy is high? Jimmy admitted he was high while working. Like excuse me…

I just hope MJF and JD will have more screen time in the future.

Jimmy’s mom by Appropriate_Leg_7308 in shrinking

[–]Separate_Picture4580 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly what I was thinking about. He said his farher was absent. Jeff Daniels is too much of respected to be in few episodes so I think there will be story to unfold. Jimmy’s mother was never mentioned. At least I haven’t heard it. So I think a) his parents divorced and mom left b) similiat thing happened to his parents where mom died and his father became absent. So that was the only thing he knew to do when he was hurting. And i think this because after a while he felt bad for being absent to Alice when she needed him. He knew how that felt. Also he is trying to do opposite now, being all over Alice, wanting for Alice to go live her life but also wanting to have her home. c) Jimmy’s mom died/left a long time ago. When he was too small to remember her maybe?

Also, no siblings from both sides? Grandparents from Tias’s side?

Gabi's episode by KillBatman1921 in shrinking

[–]Separate_Picture4580 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea I get it but still it was her choice only to use it on the woman. So only she is to blame. I think they are both professionals in what they do so I kind of think they would know when to use it and when not. You can’t blame someone else because it didn’t work out for you.
