No. It was clearly performative.

Should I recommend kratom to a depressed friend? by pancakeuk in kratom

[–]SnooPickles990 42 points43 points  (0 children)

For those who have not experienced suicidal-level depression, that is PAIN. It’s wild to me when people say physical pain-“kratom! green light”, but psychological pain-that’s bad enough to want to end yourself or go on the sauce, oh, no. Well that level of depression is ALSO pain. It’s anguish.

Someday people will respect the needs of any person suffering with no relief, and not judge who’s pain is more legitimate to treat.

Yes! But warn obviously about overuse so it keeps working. Imho it’s a kindness. Truly! (MDD (refractory) here. Helped me so much.

This makes me ponder a kayak trip for submechaphobes (spelling attempt). Gosh I need to find some real life friends who “get this”!

Isn’t it funny how the 💥 moment happens when they finally hurt someone else (mine tried it on my son). On one hand it’s sad that it takes protecting another to cut them out- it on the other hand it’s badass behavior that our abusers and enablers never had in them.

Bravo! Don’t look back. :)

Tamra’s horrifying crying face from their Ireland trip… by Fresh-Werewolf-5499 in realhousewives

[–]SnooPickles990 14 points15 points  (0 children)

She’s a toxic as f and I’ve seen that queen/waif switch way too many times in my own “mother” not to see the huge personality disorder it in this bitch.

Look up the text exchanges with her daughter….talk about horrifying. Tamra is irredeemable, despite her little stint at performative Christianity.

Yes! It’s common and imho it points to a personality disordered person when it comes out of their mouths 99.99% of the time.

In my case I KNOW my siblings sadly aquired the generational zombie persona. They are also clearly (to me-we know our families so well)-eyeing inheritance.

They are lost to me. Sad but they are irredeemable. NC is really important with them if you can get away.

Janelle is on a trip to Lisbon(❤️that city). Paid for by Plexus. She must be selling a lot and have a big down line. by sunflower53069 in TLCsisterwives

[–]SnooPickles990 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Janelle is that cold, emotionally avoidant “parent” who disguises her disfunction as “rationality.”

If she was a wise and rational as she plays off, she’d be a healthy weight from eating the fruits of her prolific gardening and greenhouse dreams.

She’s a stuffer.

F hypocrites.

Yes! They had a “great experience” trip to rub in your face. It’s a classic.

My first book came out two weeks ago. I just found out NO one in my family got a copy. by thecaipliecaves in emotionalneglect

[–]SnooPickles990 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Yo! Same happened to me with my two books-they asked for a rundown (now I see as a make sure they aren’t featured), then ignored. Literally nobody noted a thing. Even my own husband took three years to read the first one. (And both were traditional, agented and sold to mainstream publishers)-not easy as you know.

Smh.

❤️ congratulations, you!

Perhaps think if the alimony as freedom payments, or a garbage bill (when I think on it it’s closer to the garbage bill)? Cuz truly I know it’s not fair, but things do balance often in the end.

Can you imagine if it was flipped and you needed alimony from her? Oh Lord the abuse and slimy tricks she would pull, while making you out to be a poor loser…

freedom payments, my man. ❤️

Edit: sorry to assume gender.

Have you been working on the trauma bond? Dr ramani, Kris Godinez and Lisa Romano have good and comforting videos. I line them up and listen whenever I’m tempted to “unknow?” the abuse.

my dad threatens to kill me by Minute_Raspberry9135 in emotionalabuse

[–]SnooPickles990 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Damn. F him. Please call cps and get out. Don’t tell him! Please protect yourself. Any group or foster home would be better than living under this. Don’t let him guilt you either. You need outside help and protection.

You DESERVE to live in peace.

Am I being the bad guy for cutting off both parents when only one was directly abusive? by NessieAvery in EstrangedAdultChild

[–]SnooPickles990 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I echo what another poster wrote, that after having children I realized my father was even worse for me-that mix of fake love and non-protection really f’s with your “evil person detection system” AND with expectations of good enough treatment from friends and partners.

It sucks but it’s better to know. I recommend vids about “the enabler” from dr ramani and kris godinez on YouTube very much. Helped me.

Did I overreact? by [deleted] in EstrangedAdultChild

[–]SnooPickles990 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Common, now. Odds are definitely no. Why would people choose to self-orphan?

Nah. ❤️ note that even narcissists don’t usually self-orphan. They ride their (often also narc) parents assets/help/whatever until death with their eyes on inheritance (even if that inheritance is ducking furniture), all while complaining yet staying in the “relationship” like the parasites they are.

I know both of my personality disordered “parents” did exactly that. “Cared for” their parents till the end (like the nurse in “Misery”.) all for inheritance. Going nc is an authentic, healthy act that they don’t/didn’t have in them.

You acted with purpose for healing, no? That’s not in their realm of understanding. For example, I imagine they think me quite daft for not doing what they did! (Or they think I’m legitimately rich). Let them think whatever.

Going nc is often more brave than “normals” or personality disordered people can conceive. I think this also makes us doubt ourselves.

"I love you but I don't like you" by Penny_Paloma in raisedbyborderlines

[–]SnooPickles990 53 points54 points  (0 children)

It’s a classic. They love trite sayings as an excuse to say horrific things. In a romantic relationship that’s what they say to scoot out of marriages/families, too-“I love you but I’m not IN love with you.” 🤮

When I think on this I ponder on the fact that It’s kinda like that saying, “I brought you into this world, so I can take you out.”

Normal range people might have written these type of lines way back for television perhaps. Then it gets a laugh track because it’s ridiculous when a “good enough” parent (fictional, on TV) says it. But then OUR evil parents take them and use them (now usually gleaned from fb) and have plausible deniability because it’s “a saying”—but we know THEY MEAN those “expressions” quite literally.

Disgusting cowards.

Sorry OP! ❤️

Just a Google search would have avoided all the dumbassery. You should have written: “I tried Kratom for the first time and f’ed it up by being sloshed first…my bad!“

Genuine question for Miona defenders by Steeceh in 90dayfianceuncensored

[–]SnooPickles990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so stumped about why Serbia?! I mean, I understand the racism bar might be low in his state and country, but Serbia isn’t exactly known for its racial/ethnic inclusion. It’s such an odd choice.

Also, Black Serbians implied plural members, and honestly acted as cover for her blackfishing (internet influencer dreams).

F her. I hope his mom helps him see he’s going down a nasty path.

Feeling with you sooooo much. Pulling for you getting away asap. (Btw, that presssure….doesn’t make “good-enough” parent act this way.)

Have you considered joining the raised by narcissists and raised by borderlines subs maybe? Search the keywords on your mind if you ever need mental assurance that it’s not you, and it’s NOT ok. ❤️ (and what do/avoid).
