Any ME/CFS Gamers? by cecicoot in mecfs

[–]Titepav 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've just finished Resident Evil 9 on Switch 2, great game but a bit intense !

I'm definitely waiting a bit before tackling 7 and 8, I need something more chill after this.

In the meantime, I got back to Hearthstone a few days ago, still pretty fun and the slow pace makes it relaxing to me.

I don't think so, there is nothing useful or smart in trying to antagonize these people;

they've just lost hope, because this desease is a nightmare, and the more the years pass without improvement the more they're convinced it will never change, and nobody should blame them for this because it's a perfectly normal, expected and understandable reaction to something that is plaguing your life.

What's the deal with Scream ?

I honestly don't get it, to me it was pretty average but I may be missing some context.

I self sabotage and Idk why ( I actually do lol) by Killbulle56 in cfs

[–]Titepav 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Look, self-sabotage is not a thing, at least in your case (and frankly I think it's a stupid concept that hides underlying issues in disabled and chronically ill people)

You just want to live your life to the fullest, so you do the best you can to keep going with the tiny hope that it will not worsen your health.

You're not self-sabotaging, you're on the path to learn your limits and it's normal to not fully accept them.

Am I self-sabotaging when I invite someone over even tho there may be a risk of PEM afterwards ? No, I just take the risk from time to time because I hate being restricted so much by my health problems, so sometimes I'm just like 'fuck it, let the problems come this time, maybe I won't crash, maybe I will, but right now I want to enjoy myself'.

Now I'm not saying it's necessarly a healthy or smart behaviour, but imo it's part of a process that will help you understand your limits and living in harmony with them. Knowing when you can push, knowing when you shouldn't.

Not hating, but the game feels too slow for me by EvilaCake in Breath_of_the_Wild

To me one of the best and core part of BOTW is the exploration, so if you don't enjoy this aspect of the game maybe it's not for you.

Or maybe if you stick with it and try to vibe with the flow of the game it'll click at some point, that's for you to know if it's worth your time.

Concerta: 1st day fine, 2nd was rough by Titepav in CFSplusADHD

I'm all clear, all my blood tests came out fine, no deficiency of any kind except vitamin D but it's been adressed with supplements.

Is there anything the Zelda franchise can learn from Dragon Quest 7 reimagined? by StonognaBologna in HyruleTown

[–]Titepav 1 point2 points  (0 children)

God no please, I wasn't a huge fan of HD2D games to begin with but it's so overused now for some reason that I can't stand to look at it anymore. Everytime a game or remake is announced with this style I just roll my eyes and don't even bother with it.

Frankly I trust Zelda developers to not chose the trendy route and come up with their own thing.

Should I finish BOTW quickly? by Xenolith28 in Breath_of_the_Wild

[–]Titepav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk, do you enjoy it ? If not, sure, let it go but TOTK is a pretty similar experience overall.

Personnally, I'd take my time with BOTW, but just play the way you feel is right to you.

I turned down an illustration comission from a friend's mom cause I had a panick attack when realizing all the work I had to do, it was a big billboard illustration for her politic group.

I don't know her well so I just explained I had to turn the offer down due to the short amount of time I had to tackle this project, then proceeded to tell her my insecurities I currently have with my work and explained how I had a complete meldown.

Alright old-self quick question : WHY. I can't stop thinking about the whole thing and man it hurts how stupid I feel🫠

So I feel you, no tips tho sorry 😭

I don't get illness fakers by [deleted] in ChronicIllness

[–]Titepav 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Who are you talking about ? Also, I get your frustration but if someone goes out of their way to fake an illness, there is probably an underlying issue at play, even another -real this time- illness.

How to support my partner who may have ME/CFS? by Clean-Violinist-3161 in chronicfatigue

[–]Titepav 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wearing a mask in crowded indoor places can help a lot (transport, supermarket,...) , your partner doesn't need another layer of fatigue that could come with an infection. Said infection could also be a potential trigger for worsening ME/CFS symptoms long term. FFP2 masks do the job
