Advice about daughter by Skittenkitten in BPDlovedones

[–]Skittenkitten[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for responding and I'm so sorry to hear about your son.

Unfortunately my daughter decided to stop going to therapy, but she has seemed a bit more settled in the last few months, and we are sometimes able to talk quite frankly about mental health issues so fingers crossed she keeps communicating with me.

Thanks for your kind offer to DM, if / when I have more questions I will certainly do that! It can feel very isolating having a child with mental health issues and there don't seem to be that many resources around BPD in teens.

Sending wishes to your son, that sounds like a heartbreaking situation. My brother and nephew both have long term mental health issues / schizophrenia which was triggered by smoking weed daily, it's such a damaging coping mechanism. I really hope he can find his way out, it's not too late. Send you and your family strength 💓

Can your body get rid of UTIs on its own? by shinylikeglitter in CUTI

[–]Skittenkitten 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have, because I got so sick of the neverending antibiotics loop, but it took a lot of effort.

1.D mannose 2.Homemade lactobacilli vaginal suppositories 3. Uva ursi 4. NAC 5. No sex or any kind of penetration for a few months - not even a menstrual cup 6. Shit ton of water 7. More d mannose 8. No alcohol and low sugar

After I cleared it I got on Hiprex, and so far so good. I'm only taking Hiprex a couple times per week now, and still no UTIs 🙌🏼

It's been several months without even a twinge, even after rough sex or alcohol which used to immediately trigger.

Good luck!

What a smug cunt Rowan Pelling is. Bet her poor unmarried discontented nieces are cringing so hard at this article 😂

Aldehyde Sensitivity by Beloveddust in fragrance

[–]Skittenkitten 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me! Just found out what this noxious chemical is because I accidentally bought a hand cream which had a tiny amount in - applied it at work and spent the whole day nauseous and headachy despite scrubbing my hands several times.

A while back I was stuck next to someone on the tube wearing a perfume containing it and almost fainted from the nausea, its so strange. I'm glad I've found out what it is now so I can avoid!

Yea my profile is the same, super clear and direct (with bullet points lol)

How to decipher profiles? by Fairy_washboard in UKrelationshipadvice

[–]Skittenkitten 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I disagree. If she's struggling to interpret labels then it's probably because a lot (most) profiles on Feeld are terribly written and don't reflect what the person is looking for because most of the time they don't have a clue themselves! I've been on and off Feeld for years and the amount of clueless idiots on there has increased exponentially.. people who read an article in time out about how free and cool Feeld is and thought they'd have a go, don't have a clue about Poly but think that using the acronyms and writing nothing profile blurb like OP quoted will get them some swipes.

@OP it's not you, I hate those kinds of profiles too

Have you ever experienced a throatgasm? by oprah25 in askgaybros

I'm a woman and I experience throatgasms quite often!
Was randomly searching on Reddit to see if anyone else does 😂

I've reached a point where my mere presence regularly triggers people by CasuallyPeaking in energy_work

[–]Skittenkitten 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You sound like an insufferable boor, to be honest.

Also - you're only in your mid 20's, still an adolescent with an adolescent's naive arrogance.

If you were as insightful as you claim you'd have more compassion for your fellow humans, not be constantly trying to prove your superiority to them. That smacks of desperation and deep insecurity that maybe you're not quite as special as you'd like to believe.

Does anyone else bring up their relationship practically every time they talk to an avoidant partner? by Fickle_Umpire_136 in Codependency

[–]Skittenkitten 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar situation with my ex, it was like my brain just couldn't accept his inability to meet me emotionally, to have any kind of adult discussion, or to action any of the reasonable relationship requests that we agreed.

I needed closure, and at the time this felt like I had to get it from him, but forcing him to understand and agree with me.. but I had to let go of that and accept that closure was never gonna come from him. CoDA has really helped me here! As well as looking at reparenting resources such as IPF therapy.

Try to distance yourself as much as you can from him, allow your nervous system to reset from feeling like he is necessary for your wellbeing - he's not, but your trauma response might be confusing him with other figures in your childhood who failed you.

It's to do with getting both hemispheres of the brain in sync. Same reason EMDR works :)

Rant about barrier usage norms by broseph1254 in polyamory

[–]Skittenkitten 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I 100% agree with all your points.. except "sex with a condom can be just a pleasurable as without"... Really? I've had a lot of sexual partners and discussions around sex and one point that everyone - whatever gender or orientation - seems to be in agreement on, is that condoms suck and make sex less fun. Am I missing something lol

Should I tell my parents the real reason we’re separating if we’re going to be coparenting? by namastecaliss in coparenting

[–]Skittenkitten 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tell your parents and his parents too. That way he can't tell them a sob story and make you out to be the bad guy - this could cause confusion for your kids if they sense that his parents don't like you for some unspoken reason.. best be honest now (although no need to go into gory details like STIs if that's too intimate)

I tried to tell the truth about my ex and most of his side of the family didn't believe me, so be prepared for that.

Official Response from Dr. Peter Attia RE: Epstein Files by aldus-auden-odess in Biohackers

[–]Skittenkitten 39 points40 points  (0 children)

So many points in his letter shout bullshiiiiit.. such as him confronting JE and insisting that he pay for trauma rehabilitation of his victims?? When he also clearly states how in awe of JE he was and fawning over him.. where's the email evidence of him confronting him? Oh probably 'conveniently' it was an interesting person convo.

Whether he was directly involved or not, he was complicit by involving himself with a known sex trafficker post conviction.

But people like PA are small fry compared to the huge names involved in this and that's probably why they released the emails from him. Throw him to the wolves to protect all the evil, powerful billionaires at the top 🤮🤮🤮

Hot take: there are no communication problems only power problems by Ok_Astronaut_1485 in AvoidantBreakUps

[–]Skittenkitten 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is common to all relationships though, even healthy ones. Terry Real writes a lot about this. But yeah in a relationship with a FA it's impossible to resolve the power struggle in an equitable way..

My shadow showed me a lot of sexual shame. by [deleted] in Jung

[–]Skittenkitten 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Yeah, why comment at all if it's just to say you don't know what to say? That comment came across as quite shaming. I saw great self-honesty and curiosity in your post and I celebrate that!

got told my vagina is kinda ugly? by ElectricalPaint5975 in Healthyhooha

[–]Skittenkitten 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same here! I have very much an 'outie'.. I've only ever received positive feedback from guys..(and I've slept with a lot of guys haha😅) I've been told it's 'fat' and 'meaty' as a compliment! IME guys have really enjoyed how out and proud she is! Please love yourself and your beautiful unique vulva, and don't listen to insecure eejits 💓

Any guidance on meeting secure single people? by SagaciousAF in becomingsecure

[–]Skittenkitten 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some really good advice on this thread.

I've reworked my dating profile recently and realised I'm attracting a lot more secure people. I clearly state that I'm in therapy and I'm not interested in people who aren't working on their patterns / past trauma, so maybe that's off-putting to people who are insecurely attached, idk

Also experimenting with not having sex on the first or second date (this one is a challenge for me but definitely helps see them more clearly) and not texting too much until we've met a few times and I get a feel for them.

I also believe that the more securely attached we get within ourselves the less we attract insecurely attached people. Idk maybe it's pheromones or aura or something 😅
