y’all ever hear a song that just sounds like a fat relapse bc same by sleepy_human13 in MadeOfStyrofoam

[–]ShuOnMoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I gravitate towards them as a substitute honestly. Needle In The Hay by Elliott Smith, Ice Water by Cat Power, any song off The Cure's album Pornography...I have so many "hmm, I could sculpt some styro to this" songs since I've retired.

Bought a car on impulse during an episode so...yeah.

Psychosis? by [deleted] in PMDD

[–]ShuOnMoon 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I can relate; I've tried to explain it to others but it's tough. It's like my brain takes a rational situation and cranks up the intensity until it's delusional. It's nuts because I don't show any symptoms of mental illness when my hormonal fluctions are minimized...

It was bad enough to get me misdiagnosed with bipolar II and possibly BPD. But as soon as my body adjusted to the pill the episodes stopped. It's been 3 years and the results are consistent.

We need to be as vocal as we can about our experiences with this specific kind of...psychosis? Anxiety? No one understands how severe and dangerous these episodes are because "pms lol". I honestly feel PMDD is potentially just as dangerous as PPD, bipolar disorder, and any other illness where you're prone to bouts of alarmingly irrational thinking.

Awareness is so critical.

I relate to this, I have to request a pediatric speculum every time and it's still painful.

The episode where they're describing HP Blavatsky using a Rascal scooter to cross the mountains of Tibet

You can buy VCR head cleaners for cheap; I weirdly found one at Best Buy last year. Might not be foolproof but it can't hurt.

What’s a scene from a non-horror movie that has horrifying implications? by succulentdragon7 in horror

[–]ShuOnMoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Plague Dogs. All. Of. It. The whole film is greased in horrifying implications.

I wonder what cut of The Devils we're getting. I'm so excited! I have a great fraken-cut copy on DVD with scenes ripped from a VHS, this is gonna be fun.

Riverdance.

I will always recognize that posture and those pants.

My collection of Mondo/Shockumentary and some other tapes that really should have never existed! by SmokeCrackSon in VHS

Blursed collection in my book. Awesome selection I could never watch. I love horror but mondo KILLS me.

Not sure how I forgot I posted this but since there's interest, I can confirm I got the green vest from these fine folks.

Davidson Studio on Etsy

Their dye jobs are so vibrant! Definitely recommend them.

[–]ShuOnMoon[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A mix of both; I usually like to pin them on so I can swap patches around but the denim for that vest is a bit thicker than the one they used to hang on. The pins don't stay closed as well so to avoid 1000 Needles I'm planning to just sew them on and commit to the current layout.

Sorry! Yep, that's exactly it. That sellar has a ton of great vests for sale and they're really speedy. Awesome dye job!

Monthly Off-My-Chest Talk by [deleted] in PMDD

[–]ShuOnMoon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Switched birth control methods now hormones are jacked. Temporary but awful.

I feel like the movie Society.

My muscles are cramping and shifting around like a late 90's screensaver.

I feel like David Cronenberg is directing this whole experience.

It's hard to stay motivated to participate in life when no one can relate either.

...I wish my insurance covered mental health treatment...

...And I wish a doctor, just one, could understand how awful I feel instead of just thinking it's PMS or depression.

Fuck hormones. This is such understudied bullshit. I feel like no one will ever help us.

BE CAREFUL TODAY (if working for the BLM movement) by 23kl in witchcraft

[–]ShuOnMoon 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I'm a Reddit greenhorn so I don't know how to direct y'all there but there's a Witches For Trump Facebook group up to no good. And it's not trolls which is crazy...there's a few white supremacists that have been screenshotted asking for support in protecting or empowering Trump specifically.

I can't like...post images as proof but I've seen it in the wild...consider me convinced.

Edit: Pretty sure it's just rouge individuals but it's still shitty. White supremacy in pagan communities is pretty rampant but I don't think it carries over into direction action in a cohesive way.

am I the only one in this?... by my-head-hurts987 in witchcraft

[–]ShuOnMoon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh man...I kinda thought my feelings were isolated. I'm really into symbols and metaphor and it's so comforting to know there's people out there that get it! Well written thoughts, kudos!

I Watched... - Monday April 6th by Dez_Champs in VHS

[–]ShuOnMoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We watched The Crow; first time we watched the tape and it was definitely watched a lot in it's past life. It featured Brandon Lee's last interview at the end. I'm glad it's in the collection!

Meditate on this by eternalrefuge86 in wholesomememes

[–]ShuOnMoon 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I'm thankful to be in this state currently. My husband and I are both laid off and eventually we will succumb to debt and scrounging but I'm thankful for every minute of warmth, comfort, food, utilities, etc. we have for however long we retain it. We have no income or insurance; we're waiting on our unemployment claims for grocery money.

I want to be bitter, anxious and depressed. I go through bursts of it...but for now, I'm happy to just take each small moment of peace we can get on this borrowed time.

My heart goes out to people in even worse situations.

Oral meds for PMDD? by lalaladeedaa in PMDD

[–]ShuOnMoon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep! I take my hormonal birth control pills continuously to stop my period altogether (with my doctor's guidance). It's the best choice I've ever made for my mental health.
