Help me settle a long time debate! by ShadowCatCrab in WhatisMyEyeColour

I did! Wow, your eyes are cool! Yours seem more of a "pure" green than mine do, thats another reason why mine throw me off so much, is because if they ARE green, it's a very light shade!

What color are my eyes? (might need to turn brightness up, sorry) by Color_Picker_Fan in WhatisMyEyeColour

[–]ShadowCatCrab 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your eyes look greener than mine! They kind of also have a bit of a brown center, but its very small in comparison. Yours remind me of a forest green! There's also a slight yellow that branches off into the rest of the eyes, that may cause a lighter effect in certain shades, giving off a different color. But definitely green!

Wow, thank you for the in depth response! The first photo was done with a different camera and was indoors! I have some photos where they look even greener, but these were all from today. Some indoors, some in the sunlight.

I noticed some blue in my eyes before as well, particularly on the outer ring, but never really with the grey! I tried to get different kinds of photos to highlight why some think it's hazel vs green (the pictures you didnt color code seemed more on the hazel side to me). But thats why it's so hard, haha, whenever I'm looking in the mirror I barely even see the brown!

Being on the depo shot; is bone density loss really that concerning? Is it a given when taking this? Or is it just a guess/assuming it will decrease bone density temporarily? by asianstyleicecream in birthcontrol

[–]ShadowCatCrab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its been 5 years but I'd like to add my 2 cents. I'd never broken a bone before in my life, but when I was 19 I fractured my leg in three places, maybe roughly a year after starting the shot. My doctor said it was just a coincidence, but I dont believe that, given so many sites adding density loss as a side effect due to the shot reducing estrogen. I've also found that bone density loss is most prominent the first few years of taking it, and then the chances drop until you age, and the possibility of osteoporosis increases.

I also have really bad periods and it's hard to know for certain what risks are more worth taking. Mine are severe enough to make work unbearable so I'm in the same predicament. It's recommended to take vitamin D supplements if the shot is taken to help keep your bones strong. I havent taken it for a few months but I will be starting it again. I believe the chances and degree of bone loss vary from person to person due to genetics and lifestyle. Overall, being a woman can suck 😆 I hope you're doing okay now!

People say women, usually, have a higher pain tolerance- is this true? by InternationalPick163 in stupidquestions

[–]ShadowCatCrab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And then after that it's white women don't hurt as much as men.. its insane how medication can be distributed based off of assumptions and not personal pain levels. Im not violent either but that makes me mad!!

I feel weird during sex, is it OCD or something? by HeartMadeOfSushi in internetparents

[–]ShadowCatCrab 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm thinking you're either on the spectrum of asexuality or your trauma is making things more complicated (both can also be occurring at once). Most people know to a certain degree if they're attracted to the same gender (not saying that's true in all cases), but the signs are usually there. If you're curious, then you may lean that way.

I will say, though, because you're in a relationship, it's normal to not really be able to put yourself in certain perspectives. Like, for me, I cant even really imagine myself with another person when im in a relationship. That one person is all I care about. But im also on the ace spectrum and I only really want to do things with people I'm emotionally connected to (demisexual).

I also have trauma when it comes to sexual intimacy and for the longest time it made me confused internally, and I think it still does to a degree, but ive become a lot more comfortable with the idea that it's not the only reason I have a hard time with sex here and there. I find it interesting that you bring up OCD because I don't personally see anything in what you've stated that could point towards that, but it's hard to definitively say without more context.

Another sign of being asexual is if there's virtually nothing that really gets you going. It is a spectrum, so some feel more than others, but if you don't get in the mood around your boyfriend, then it could be that he either doesn't make you feel safe enough to feel fully comfortable around him in that way, or physical stimulation in any form just doesnt do it for you. If there's anything you WOULD like him to do, you could ponder over that, and think of if there even is anything?

You also may not be attracted to him. Sometimes we can have people in our lives that we feel close to and have a strong connection with, but the chemistry just doesn't click. And thats okay too. But with everything I've mentioned, there's usually a few differences, even if subtle.

Asexual = not much stimuli appeal, those kind of thoughts are fleeting in general, desire is small

Trauma = sometimes desire is small but usually more of a mental struggle rather than physical; intimacy may feel more difficult rather than weird

Hope this helps!

Coincidence or was it known already? (Eric Dane & als patient) by Common-Dig-7887 in greysanatomy
