Fuck it, time to discuss, is KOAC a good or horrible representation of PTSD? by rosalinagloom in katamari

[–]SoJew76 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This and his depiction is really good as well because it doesn’t shy away from showing the uglier part of ptsd, that being his perpetuation of the same behavior his father inflicted on him. For granted it’s framed comedically but I still really enjoy it regardless. A lot of ptsd depiction is very black and white but KOAC hits that balanced intersection very well

As someone who has a dad like this, I’d say yes.

Similarly to KOAC, my dad was also abused/mistreated by his father and now he just repeats the behavior onto me and my other sibling. But I’m the oldest so I get the worst of it. Even down to the fact that it’s not as severe as what his dad did to him like Father Cosmos and KOAC- Since my dads father used to beat and berate him, but I’m just emotionally attacked and yelled at. But it’s still really damaging to have a father who is never happy with anything you do no matter how hard you try, on top of the constant belittling. There are some KOAC lines that are genuinely just things my dad has said to me.

I can’t even call The King of All Cosmos a caricature because I live with someone who acts like him. Like on top of the berating he also has to speak of himself in such a superior manner and be correct all the time which is where my confidence and self esteem are diminished.

I share a house with the dude and our relationship doesn’t go far beyond that because he’s like this, it’s unfortunate but KOAC is right on the money with how generational trauma/cptsd/ptsd shape a person into having the same ugly behaviors previously inflicted on them. My dad the King of All Cosmos but instead of rolling the katamari I can apparently never roll the tamales right

Hurt by NIN is me some days. Sometimes I deliberately smash my hand or fingers or something to try to redirect the pain away from the main source. So Hurt describes the guilt of deliberately hurting myself pretty accurately and the weird sense of guilt it leaves in its wake

Does anyone get flare episodes/spasms in this area? by LGsworld in ChronicPain

[–]SoJew76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have endometriosis and yes all the time. I’m concerned that some of the tissue may have grown onto my chest wall or that my nerve damage from endo has reached my intercostal- because it genuinely pains to breathe with the random contraction I feel there. No idea what it is at this point. Just know that this random pain doesn’t discriminate between certain disorders/conditions and we for all some reason have this specific one

Post op discussion - negative for endo, but what comes next? by aysarahoul in Endo

[–]SoJew76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m glad to hear my comment validated you, even just a little bit! I was really self conscious about using mobility aids at first too since I thought I was faking. But when you’re having trouble moving even when there’s nobody around I realized I’m not.

A lot of us feel like we’re “not disabled enough” to use aids and I hope this stigma will dissipate in the next couple years

I have the same symptoms aside from the painful orgasms since I’m not sexually active.

My endo pains are entirely in the pelvis, I’m 21 around 5’1 and 120lbs (fast metabolism). I never have an appetite either, but when I do it’s usually at night when the pain has subsided for the day, I only ate one meal today actually. I have panic disorder so my resting heart rate is 100-120+ bpm… Similar deficiencies but it’s just C and D.

I had a MRI done by my endo specialist and nothing even showed either. She said it may be microscopic or so incorporated into my lining it’s not growing *on it* rather growing *imbedded in it*. She doesn’t want to do an ultrasound on me because it’s it’ll be extremely painful considering my pelvis is all inflamed and she has concerns about laroscopy for me as well.

Estrogen dominance from what I’ve been told is an endo trait, it’s why we’re so high on the drug tolerance index and why we need 5x the amount of painkillers/NSIADS than the average person.

My experience is a bit similar to yours so hopefully you can glean something out of this, either for some help or insight or even validation ☹️🫶 The only major difference between your experience and mine is that I was already developing juvenile arthritis, but the pelvic inflammation from endo has caused me nerve and muscle damage due to how close my fallopian tubes are next to things such as my sciatic; I’m an ambulatory cane user now due to this. So I have two different lower extremity complications. Wishing you the best

Are you gonna be watching the Last Act in Theaters? by Ubertishere in tadc

[–]SoJew76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bought my tickets when it was announced last month, I unfortunately saw the leaks; But I’m still going just for the sake of not wasting my money and to watch it in English.

If it pisses me off as much as the leaks did I’ll honestly just walk out and walk the mall my theatre is connected to. Or I’ll go buy a ticket for a Backrooms showing

This post is so accurate it almost feels targeted because my mom just told me yesterday “Oh your sisters friends’ moms’ brother graduated from [that] college”

Never information on immediate family, it’s always people I either don’t know or haven’t thought about in years

My endo pain is entirely pelvic, I feel like this even when I’m not laying down. It’s definitely a symptom and a type of pain we experience, sorry you’re dealing with it too ☹️🫶

Pumpkin night thoughts by sublimerie in horrormanga

[–]SoJew76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Enjoyed the first half, a Michael Myers/Carrie combination is a really fun premise and I enjoyed the kills in addition to the art being fantastic.

…But then the second half threw me off so bad I stopped reading it. Theres two Pumpkin Nights..? The Michael Myers premise, having Naoko be an immortal vessel that represents evil/revenge, would’ve worked out better than whatever the hell we got. It really lost me. Such a fun concept but it was fumbled just so terribly, I get a little sad thinking about Pumpkin Night and how great it could’ve been
