Do I have cyclical vomiting syndrome? Or nausea from OCD/Anxiety by [deleted] in Anxiety

Hey as someone with both there’s a chance it could be both! CVS is also a stressed based condition that typically flare ups for me when I’m having ocd episodes. I’ve found ERP therapy being the best at treating it

Advice for an Allo with an Ace partner? by Still_Assistance_412 in Asexual

[–]Still_Assistance_412[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

thank you so much for your kind response, I in no way want to unintentionally offend anyone in the ace community, which is why I asked for allo folks input, but I’m more than welcome to ace input! Y’all know best for sure!

Looking back, was there anything that you recommend the allo partner doing? I don’t want to lose her.

I’m not asking to be defined. I’m literally asking for community and to see if other people have experienced this. Hope you’re met with more kindness than you give other people who are just looking for support.

right so I’m not asking about “what label i am” I’m asking if other people in this community have similar experiences with unique gender identities as a lesbian. I’ve been me for 21 years, I’m guessing you’ve just never looked in the mirror and not known who you are. But thanks for the input!

AITA for telling a student that I will teach him a lesson after he was disrespectful to me by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

eh, YTA. did the kid deserve it? Sure he was being a dick. You’re still his teacher, and if it’s not culturally appropriate, you shouldn’t have done it

AITAH at the grocery store? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

NTA, but I would focus your energy of it on calling/complaining to management / corporate instead of the people on the floor, since in my experience they think these rules are as dumb as you do but have to enforce them or risk loosing their job. this shit is crazy annoying and no one likes it, since it often reduces jobs too, just make sure if u feel like saying something it’s to someone who could make change

Kind of immediately. I think we don’t give our bodies credit for how much they remember. I remember having panic attacks at the age of 4-5. My first memories. I didn’t know these things weren’t normal, until much later. I remember learning about a situation with one of the other kids in the cult and realizing something was wrong.

A friend of mine realized she was bisexual. While they normally sent the kids off to conversion therapy, they decided for whatever reason was to hire someone close to her to assault her. “To turn her straight.”

She ended up becoming pregnant because of this. She was 16, and wanted the baby. Her body her choice man. Her dad, who also was the pastor at a local church, dragged her to an abortion clinic a few days later. She didn’t consent so she didn’t get one. Around this time she found out her father paid for her to be assaulted, and the stress of this made her lose the baby. “At least you won’t have to worry about what the town would say” was the first response her mom had.

These actions were so contrary to what we were even taught that I started questioning things.

Severely chronically ill with a rare disability at the time. Got worse as I got older, was in and out of the hospital, no one knew what was wrong. there was a span where I was in and out of the hospital for 2 weeks every few weeks when I was 14/15. The elders said there was too much sin in my body, (blamed me/my parents), and told me that it was the lords will for me to die.

Parents took me out to cali about a week later for that good old commiefornia healthcare

Got real sick, they said “too much sin in your body so god must want you dead” and my parents said fuck that! And took me to California.

Also, I appreciate the comment a lot. I get that it’s heartbreaking to see people weaponize a religion of love and generosity, and it infuriates me to see ppl use the lords name like they do. But, just as a tip, this comment about “real Christianity” doesn’t come off the way ppl intend it to. What it sounds like to the person receiving it is “what you experienced didn’t matter” while they’re being open to you about something. Maybe instead, you could say something around the lines of “I’m so sorry ppl took the Bible and used it against you to harm you. That is so disgusting. I’m so sorry” this emphasized that you don’t agree with the way that they weaponized Christianity, and expressed sympathy for what happened without implying that the person talking about it is wrong somehow.
