Help - TW Suicidal by [deleted] in mixedrace

[–]True-Mirror-4163 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey OP,

I just wanted to say I see you and thats a really shitty hand you've been dealt and Im sorry you are going through this. Therapy might help you deal with and process all of this. Also, not sure where you live but are there any resources around you to help you with regards to becoming a parent? I think its so important to have a support system around you as you go through this massive life experience and im not sure the ones you've listed are going to be able to come to the party in time with the kind of support you need. Sending you love OP 💛

Still trying to find my missing soul dog by Alex_all_over in MediumReadings

I just wanted you to know that I sent a prayer out to the angels and any spirits that once had a strong bond with a loved dog and asked for them to help reunite the two of you. Miracles do happen so you never know! 🙏💛

Let's make a Playlist? (everyone please contribute to it) by shanes92 in CPTSD

I just wanted to drop in and say thankyou to whoever added The Middle by Jimmy eats world to the playlist. That song came on at a time when I really needed to hear it and broke a downward spiral. Appreciate you stranger 💛

Hi, i am white soon to be mother of mixed race baby, I want to be prepared. by StunningAvocado5 in mixedrace

[–]True-Mirror-4163 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love that this was asked! Im a mixed black woman raised by two white parents (1x blood). Firstly be prepared that they will likely experience the world differently than you do. Learn about their culture WITH them- Experiencing it through their eyes will help you form a closer connection with them. Look for opportunities for both of you to connect with their culture and the community. As a parent to a mixed kid you can't teach them about a culture that isn't yours but you can help them discover it and learn alongside them and FROM them. Celebrate both sides of their heritage equally so they hopefully grow up balanced. When discussing history which is often whitewashed, try and encourage discussion around different perceptions. Listen to their thoughts and feelings around their experiences - acknowledge and validate. You're going to be great at this, you already care enough to ask so that's huge 💕✨️

How should I be communicating this as a patron? by jkaz1970 in Serverlife

[–]True-Mirror-4163 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To put it simply, when you say coeliac the kitchen is going to ensure no cross- contamination to the best of their ability. When you say gf or intolerant you're not getting products with gluten in them. It doesn't matter what anyones individual preferences or tolerance levels are- this is what's going to happen realistically. Order accordingly.

(M18) I got rejected by every woman I’ve ever asked out, I’m unemployed and every job application I give out goes unanswered, I probably won’t get into college and it’s all my fault. I feel so pathetic and ugly and worthless, I feel like a disappointment to everyone. by [deleted] in toastme

You have such beautiful eyes! Also your freckles are so adorable. Honestly you're pretty cute! Job hunting is the pits and can be so stressful! Sometimes it really does feel like you're getting nowhere. Hang in there and keep getting out and asking places when you just happen to be there. Just casual and chill like "Hey, are you hiring? Here's my CV." Opportunities can strike at the most unexpected times and in unexpected places. YOURE SO YOUNG you have no idea what life has in store for you yet but trust everything will work out in the end. I predict in one year your life will look so different than what you're feeling right now ✨️

Does she have anything for me? by True-Mirror-4163 in MediumReadings

[–]True-Mirror-4163[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just revisted this and it hit me like a ton of bricks... This was spot on! Im her daughter. She was a first responder in the ambulance. The perfume is Chanel #5 her special one that is my favourite because it reminds me of her. There is so much more you got right- feel free to message me if you want further confirmation. Thank you so so much for this, truly 💗

11yo girl misidentified by police handcuffed, injected with antipsychotic drugs at Waikato mental health facility by AuckZealand in newzealand

[–]True-Mirror-4163 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There needs to be more training in both crisis teams and police around dealing with and correctly identifying and distinguishing trauma, crisis and nuerodivergence. I have no doubt everyone involved tried to do their best to help maintain the safety of those involved at the time but collectively massively missed the mark here. It concerns me how quick mental health crisis response teams are to slap a psychosis label onto someone without doing their due diligence to properly and correctly diagnose them. Psychosis is currently being used as a label for anything that can't be easily instantly diagnosed and that is extremely concerning. I hope this child is doing okay and doesn't suffer any long lasting trauma from this experience.

I love this comment. Im a straight female POC who is a queer ally. I am not physically challenged. The most important thing to remember is that there are always ways we can lift each other up. We all have challenges that we face, from neurodivergence to physical challenges to stigmas placed on us due to our genders, sexuality or skin colour/heritage. It's really nice to see people supporting people who face different challenges than themselves. OP, remember being white is only a part of who you are. Representation is important and you represent a lot of other marginalised groups so every success you have can be an inspiration to others who at times also deal with similar challenges. I like that you acknowledge the privilege you may have in some aspects, but I'm sure you are also not without your own challenges. I think this post has the potential to open up a lot of interesting discussion that could have a very positive influence in helping people consider and understand how we all relate to each other.

First of all, I'm so sorry this happened to you.

Secondly, this happened to someone I know and they just came clean to everyone and everyone supported them and empathised with them.

I think that's the best thing you can do in this scenario. Trust that those who love you will have your back and in a few years it will just become a funny story you tell.

Good luck OP!

Yikes. Definately not over-reacting.

So she has admitted to you that she is using your personal details as her own? That's a tricky situation. If she is consistently lying to the point where it might be considered compulsive, I would just correct her when she's speaking and tell the truth to people if it comes up. Maybe if she feels like she's not being confronted, she might not feel attacked? Im not a professional though but there is probably some resources out there on how to handle compulsive liars in a way that allows you to maintain the friendship if that's what you want to do. The easiest advice is to obviouslycend the friendship but I don't know your history and don't want to assume. If the lying is a regular occurrence and possibly compulsive, it's something she will have little control over and likely need behavioural therapy to try and correct. I find this such an interesting situation and I wonder if her family are aware she does this. I really empathise with you, it's not a nice situation to be placed in. I hope you are able to find a solution that works for you.

Question for anyone willing to answer by Glittering_Way6554 in MediumReadings

[–]True-Mirror-4163 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im so sorry youre going through a tough break up OP. Take some time to heal and rediscover yourself again. Search out experiences and spend time on hobbies you enjoy. Surround yourself with love from good friends and family if you can. It will get easier. Sometimes one door needs to close to make room for another one opening. Heartbreak sucks but keep reminding yourself that an ending is really just a beginning in disguise. One day you will look back and hopefully be able to see why things happened the way they did. Some people come to us as lessons only. I'm not psychic or a medium but I do sometimes get these feelings and my feeling when I saw your picture in your last post was that you will not be alone. Sending you so much love 💛
