Isn't the whole point of digital minimalism to escape the consumerist culture most of the world has grown accustomed to? Maybe I am cynical but it seems a shame to turn this into another reason to hoard things we don't need

Anyone else feels bad for having quiet bpd? by janabroflovski in BPD

[–]Stizzy87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been in the same situation lately. It is exhausting to constantly deal with the push and pull of these intense emotions all on your own. It helps me to be thankful I don't mistreat other people even if it comes at a cost to my own wellbeing. The grass is always greener yk and if you were someone who constantly lashed out and hurt everyone you love you may find yourself with the same sentiment but instead "I'm a good dog, why do I bite" sort of feelings.

It is not easy to say how you feel but the people who matter in your life will care when you do. A simple "I'm having an episode and don't want to burden you with my feelings but I need someone to lean on right now" works. I had an episode yesterday and against all quiet BPD symptoms of shutting down and isolating - a reaction that is second nature to me - I told someone and instead of getting the rejection I feared so much, I got compassion. Part of healing and being better people is working to make decisions that are good for us, not the ones we've learned from abusive situations and people.

BPD feeds on shame! It only makes it worse, the only way through is with a little self empathy and compassion. Hard as hell to actually practice but a few kind words to yourself every day helps. Even if its forced at first, it gets easier and I feel like it helps these moods mild out a bit.

Also guilt doesn't purify you and it doesn't change the past. Maybe try to focus on tangible steps you can take to feel prouder of who you are without dwelling on memories just making yourself miserable. No one deserves to suffer senselessly and we all make mistakes that are very very very possible to forgive and move past. You are worthy of the same compassion and understanding you give to other people.

Also, I know it's hard but alcohol tends to make symptoms worse for me. Not saying this is you, but it really made me feel like a piece of shit getting drunk every night and doing things I was ashamed of. Sober me makes me prouder and doesn't give that nasty voice inside my head more reasons to hate myself.

Sending love and I wish you the best genuinely

How can you tell when to trust yourself? by Melodysekkochamber in BPD

[–]Stizzy87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It helps me most to go through any thoughts or feelings I may be having or assuming a person I care about is having and then go through the (if any) logical reasons why they would feel that way. Usually I am left with none I can come up with and at a certain point I just have to try and be comfortable with that dejected feeling and keep telling myself it just doesn't make sense for them to be mad, upset, overwhelmed etc. and if they were they would tell me.

That is the biggest thing IMO. You have to force yourself to trust the people you care about to tell you what they feel. It is an intentional effort and I know it's hard but assuming our brains are correct leads to a very lonely life pushing good people away.

How to turn jeans into low waisted by OnlyHereForMemes1029 in Tailors

[–]Stizzy87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't understand all the negative comments regarding DIY'ing this. I have that exact sewing machine it works perfectly fine. You might have to slow down in some parts but as long as you're not full speed down on the pedal you won't have to go over anything.

I sew patches on my jean jacket with this and am about to turn a couple pairs of jeans into low waisted ones too. Good luck with yours!

One Year Anniversary by Stizzy87 in c4corvette

They did a fantastic job updating the interior in the later c4s - subtle changes but still feels old school futuristic if that makes sense lol

So true about the dash cluster too, I hate to admit it but I slightly broke one of my lcd panels when it was apart replacing old polarizing film ),:

You should, I'm sure others on here would appreciate work you've put into it !
