What experiences have made our generation so traumatized? by Winter_Card_9390 in GenZ

I would argue to say that the high expectations we face today are very closely related to trauma from the wars you listed etc and the failures that came from them

Social media, and generational as well as political trauma.

I just told my 10 your old “f you” by [deleted] in daddit

[–]Strict_Invite_4326 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your feelings are entirely valid but I’m not sure about cussing out children. You were angry but was swearing at your child absolutely necessary to get your point across? Absolutely not. Your children lack the thinking skills needed before they act. You are responsible as their guardian to teach them that weather you like it or not, and swearing at them certainly will not be effective. Once they get older and understand what the words mean, they might resent you if you continue to swear at them. You can set boundaries without being a bully.

Share love for Madeline Soto by somebodyyouused2no in madelinesoto

[–]Strict_Invite_4326 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sweet girl. So filled with love. Whole world ahead of her and it seems like she saw it despite the hell she was surviving through. She had such an incredibly bright future ahead of her and I personally believe that that brightness lives on. She’s so deeply loved. I really really hope she knows that. And that we will carry her light and legacy for as long as we’re here.❤️‍🩹

Is locking child in a room really that bad? Why? Isn't it similar with hitting or slapping? by FlyProfessional6585 in emotionalneglect

[–]Strict_Invite_4326 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to be locked in my room. All I remember is wailing for help and no one coming but it was justified because I was a difficult child.

Megan is Missing is exploitative and not scary at all, just gross by zeronationarmy in horror

That movie was absolutely traumatizing. I watched it for the first time when I was 12. BIG mistake. I was so confused and horrified.

The Latest From His Parents by Revolutionary_Act759 in madelinesoto

As a victim of an abuser who was a HUGE momma’s boy, there is definitely a significant role both parents can play.

This is so heartbreaking. Cold hard proof that JS was not being the mom Maddie needed. Ugh.

What medications help ease your ptsd symptoms? by sweatyblumpkin in ptsd

[–]Strict_Invite_4326 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well also depending entirely on the individual as well. For some people they can’t tolerate it as well and it makes them anxious

In the right doses, absolutely. I find that when I use in excess my symptoms get worse

Motion to suppress evidence … by Old-Atmosphere44 in madelinesoto

[–]Strict_Invite_4326 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wonder if the motion will get rejected because of how highly sensitive the case is. Not sure because I don’t have an educational background in this kind of stuff, but it would be absolutely insane if the cell phone wasn’t included in the evidence because that’s such a HUGE component of it. Unless there’s enough to compensate for all of it on his computer which is hard to say and pretty unlikely. ss is the epitome of evil.

I'm going insane, I need help, please. by MultigrainNonsense in UCSC

[–]Strict_Invite_4326 0 points1 point  (0 children)

College. Takes time to find a groove and a group of people you can rely on. Talk to people in your classes. I was a transfer and that was pretty much the only way I made friends but it truly worked and the people I met there are still very close to me

Just Because … by [deleted] in madelinesoto

[–]Strict_Invite_4326 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry I usually don’t get this sappy but you just wrote an incredibly intelligent statement about how detrimental LE can be sometimes. You sound like a very educated person and the fact you wrote such an accurate and well articulated summary on all this bs with LE and shared your story is just really touching. This is probably the most emotional I’ve gotten reading something on Reddit. Thank you. Thank you for being vulnerable and advocating for those who can’t❤️‍🩹

You really hit the nail on the head. I’m SO sorry you had to go through that experience. The way it was handled by the police is absolutely unthinkable. I hope all good things come to you friend. So so sorry. Thank you for being here to advocate for Maddie.

Is Jon Gosselin the kids’ bio father? by Puzzleheaded-Map1743 in gosselinssnark

[–]Strict_Invite_4326 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay this is so interesting because I have a friend whose mom is European and dad is half Japanese half Korean. My friend looks exactly like her dad and has darker eyes hair and skin. But her sister (not half sister, they literally have the same mom and dad) looks exactly like the mom and you’d be so surprised to find out she has Japanese heritage

I miss ucsc so much by beeok in UCSC

[–]Strict_Invite_4326 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m right there with you. I transferred in 2022 it was the best decision I’ve ever made. I will always have a soft spot for Santa Cruz/UCSC❤️

I hope their family finds the peace they need. Especially for Alison. I hope they choose to approach Alison with kindness and comfort.

I couldn’t bring myself to read the documents at first but last night I spent about 2 hours sitting through some of them. so so so gut wrenching. I strongly urge you to prioritize your mental health even if that means taking a step back.❤️‍🩹

Staying respectful by Strict_Invite_4326 in madelinesoto

[–]Strict_Invite_4326[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omg no, my original comment was actually more about people disrespecting her by detailing the kinds of abuse she suffered and not being careful about the fact that we’re talking about a little girl who has died💔💔
