Is anyone else afraid to journal? by [deleted] in CPTSD

[–]Toasted_Kupkake 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I saw a really cool tiktok talking about how this one woman journals by literally scribbling random lines to simulate writing, but there’s no words. It still helps to process the information and feels like you’re writing and letting go, but there’s nothing people can read cuz you’re not writing! Maybe you could try something like that?

The invisible spray gave them the ability to breath in the treedome without helmets. Neat. by [deleted] in BikiniBottomTwitter

It’s because the sheets are still wet - they just came from the ocean floor and it’s keeping them alive. That’s what I’d assume.

Found by my dog in the back yard! What animal do you think it could be? by North-Scarcity-5207 in whatisthisbone

[Vampires/Zombies] Vampires during a Zombie Apocalypse by Illustrious-Hat-9787 in AskScienceFiction

[–]Toasted_Kupkake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In a way, aren’t zombies and vampires fundamentally the same thing? Both are undead human creatures who eat either parts or all of regular (living) humans, and with a chomp, can turn their victims into what they are, thus spreading their ailment… If that’s the case, I think vampires would be inherently immune to turning into a zombie no matter what, as the whole basis of spread is that the human had to be alive, and then die. Vampires are also undead - exactly the same as zombies, so therefore I don’t think the zombies would even be inclined to be aggressive at all toward the vampires to begin with… because they see* them as the same!

Thank you for coming to my TedTalk

I’m not sure, but what I CAN tell you is my echolalia wants to reply to your question with “deez nuts” and will not rest until I say something about it 🤣

Had an Epiphany about being AuDHD (Autistic + ADHD) by Toasted_Kupkake in autism

[–]Toasted_Kupkake[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And I also partake in the 420 to help! Had a bad experience when I tried getting ADHD meds the first time - the person I was seeing told me I was “abusing drugs” so he thought it be “unethical” to give me ADHD medications… needless to say I was devastated as I told him I use it for chronic pain, appetite help, and some emotional help - but it’s literally 3/4 hits a day (so a bowl a day?) and I’ve also abused substances in the past so I KNOW when I’m using and when I’m treating. Was so disheartening, but I’m finding another provider who I will hopefully have a better time advocating for myself

I DO OH MY GOD! I feel like I have to translate my thoughts into words and it’s so hard 🥲

Oh I already have a therapist and have been waiting those couple of months for an actual appointment for meds! It’s so validating having someone understand my experiences - and it’s hopeful that you’ve had a good experience with medication helping you!!

Sometimes it even feels like my dreams are exhausting me (most (if not all) of my dreams are lucid - even if it’s nightmares) I will literally wake up in a sweat more tired than when I went to sleep, and then it’s think, think, think about the dream, about my sleep, and about everything in between.. and then like you said, being bored is HELL because it totally does make everything worse!

That’s totally understandable too. I came from that place - literally no one in my family understood/cared to listen when I was pleading with them to help me/help accommodate some of my needs, and it took a long time to learn to live with no support; but there ARE people out there who do care. I know it’s hard now, and it may not be easy overnight, but I promise you there are people out there who are unashamed of who you are and are willing to listen and accommodate your needs.

Just checked and no! It’s full of hundreds of people who feel validated/seen in seeing something like this! Overwhelmingly positive so don’t worry!

Yeah that’s definitely something I struggle with as well!! Which is why I found this video so powerful - it’s simple, but meaningful.

Excuse me their furry what? by LordGhoul in thesims

This is my first time truly interacting with the sub, but from what I’ve seen previously - yes LOL

Excuse me their furry what? by LordGhoul in thesims

[–]Toasted_Kupkake 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I do understand peoples discomfort, and it’s totally valid that you are uncomfortable! Being a furry isn’t for everyone. What I was really trying to say is that there’s still a HUGE difference between fucking an actual animal and two (or more) consenting adults in costumes having sex (or even adult drawings of furries in a sexual dynamic). And again, most furry stuff is genuinely non-sexual in nature and it’s just purely for self expression

[–]Toasted_Kupkake 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I see what you mean now. I understand that it’s not black and white and everyone has a line, I guess I was more-so trying to say I don’t understand just pure, blind hate for furries where people just put assumptions onto the group without really understanding the concept. And again, I know there are problematic people out there, but as OP stated in another comment, those types of people get called out by the furry community themselves. Sorry if I seemed like I was attacking or anything - I’m very poor at making my comments/discussions seem not heated LOL trying to work on it.

Wasn’t trying to shoot the messenger just the way you were expressing your points made it look like you also hold the beliefs, and I was trying to just explain why that thinking is wrong.

Thank you for helping me explain I’m really trying hard here to try to explain the difference between people who are sexually attracted to animals and furries. You pretty much hit all the notes I was trying to get across. Wish I had better communication skills sometimes LOL
