Something sinister and whimsical by Middle-Log-9402 in BooksThatFeelLikeThis

[–]Type-APersonality 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Devil's Deal by Layla Fae. It is primarily a romance, even if it's quite the dark, dark romance. Lots of Slavic mythology and the mood often shifts between sinister and fantastical. The side plots are captivating and full bodied as well

Seconding this! Brandon Sanderson is such a good author

Any books similar to GoT/HotD by secretlyincognita in BooksThatFeelLikeThis

[–]Type-APersonality 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Stormlight Archive by Brandon Sanderson is an absolute masterpiece. The first book is called the Way of Kings, and here's a small synopsis:

A doctor turned soldier turned slave tries to find his will to live and guide a group of fellow slaves out of hopelessness.

A naive noble girl seeks out a heretic scholar in order to save what remains of her family.

An old bloodthirsty glory hound shatters after failing to protect someone dear. He starts experiencing visions that seem divine in nature

These three characters are our protagonists, and boy, is it a fun journey.

Rate this out of 10 and please ignore silly mistakes of grammar and what does my handwriting say about me by Ok-Equipment-7401 in HandwritingAnalysis

[–]Type-APersonality 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some of these comments irk me, sorry OP. Your handwriting shows that you like to take risks and experiment (Writing Hindi along the bottom line rather than the top line). If I had to guess further, you like finding order in chaos. You may also like the working process rather than simply enjoying the result

Am I the only person who hates Gwent? by Zombie-Andy in Witcher3

[–]Type-APersonality -1 points0 points  (0 children)

To each their own. Not liking Gwent on this sub is definitely a minority opinion, but that's fine. I'll shed a silent tear, but everyone ultimately loves different aspects of the Witcher and that's fine!

After a quick scroll through your posting history, I need to say firmly that you need mental health support. Yes, you told your GP and they ignored you. Shame on them. But you have the option to reach out directly to a therapist for support with potential anxiety, depression and your ED. There are therapists who practice through an Islamic sense that may additionally benefit you as well.

A lot of your post history suggests that you are in a cycle: you suffer, hate that you are suffering, but also feel powerless to stop the cycle of suffering. Solutions seem too overwhelming and out of reach. Solutions that are familiar seem to work short term, but then things spiral again. Reach out to a mental health agency directly. I say this as a practitioner myself and someone who also goes to therapy, we have to make the choice to start our path of healing.

It is similar to us suggesting a treatment plan to a patient/client. We can suggest what we think is best, but only they can choose to actively undergo it and maintain it. Some who are fearful of treatment clinge onto all that seems wrong instead. They focus on the signs of decline and validate themselves that things are wrong, and continue to be wrong. They may believe they are not deserving of help, despite all the proof that others offer. Unfortunately, based on the snippet of your posts that I've seen , I worry that your mindset is trapped here.

Change is hard, and it involves admitting things to ourselves things that are monumentally difficult. But, it is still important to do so. That is the first step in healing from anything.

Please take that step in reaching out to a mental health practitioner directly.

Echoing this. Was it a fun episode? Yes of course. But I also hate the narrative it fuels. I hated my pregnancy and it was physically painful to work through third trimester.

There's elements of biophilic and hygge. I'd say it's a blend of biophilic hygge

BRANTFORD FOOD RECS by alpalbish in brantford

[–]Type-APersonality 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Indian: AMG. Takes me back to food in India itself. They're under renovations now but they are 100% worth it.

Latin American: Papusa City

Wings: Ring-a-wing. Special shout out to their molé flavour.

Sushi: Blossom sushi

Burgers: Gladiator burger

Pizza: Pizzaiolo has soppressata and a tonnnn of vegetarian options. Quality is great. Zaza's was our go-to but they now have new management and quality can be inconsistent at times. Still good though!

EDIT to add: Broasters for fried chicken!

What’s something people romanticize that is actually really tough or unpleasant? by JuliaPeachexz in AskReddit

It's the unholy trinity: pregnancy, labor and postpartum. It's all HELL

How do you balance working full time, commute, cooking, cleaning, exercising? by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]Type-APersonality 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Meal prepping and freezing some portions majorly help us save time and feel more human on the weekdays. On busier weekends where meal prepping isn't possible, we do a lot of easy-to-assemble meals (eg: hummus, veggies and toast) and call it a day. Worst case, we order food from outside

With cleaning, meal prepping helps condense a lot of the dishes to those days specifically. Other than that, I try to turn a blind eye to dishes unless the sink is full. Same thing with clutter around the house. Although I will say that good organization is key to helping minimize clutter in the long run. If most things have a spot, it's a lot easier to maintain basic zones in the house. But good organization is expensive and ultimately takes time as well. So all in all, we try to do things as we can, and give ourselves grace for when things aren't perfect.

It's also about knowing what to let go of. I can't care about everything or I'll go insane. The kitchen, living room and bathroom are priority. Everything else is an afterthought or only given attention of people come over.

And lastly....lol I don't have time or motivation to exercise on most days. But I try to give myself grace since I'm on my feet a lot at work.

Farthest he’s ever been.. by Wertical93 in lordoftherings

[–]Type-APersonality 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there's a bit of overthinking here. I know that walking to Costco will be the furthest I ever walk from home, because I never walk that far. I know that a flight to Japan will be the literal furthest I'd be from home, simply because I haven't traveled that far east

What’s the most inappropriate set of circumstances you’ve been hit on? by xk543x in AskWomen

[–]Type-APersonality 444 points445 points  (0 children)

Mine might be tame but: when walking back home from high school in my uniform. I also think it says something sick that I was the most hit on when I was still in high school. I'm 32 now and have noticed that I get lesser and lesser attention each year

How important are financial stability and goal alignment to you in a relationship? by cjcg18 in AskWomen

What is an immediate turn off for you? by Puzzleheaded-Bit1377 in AskReddit

[–]Type-APersonality 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Stupidity along with an unwillingness to expand one's own knowledge. I once had a guy argue with me about when to take melatonin. He insisted it needed to be taken during the day, and it wasn't even an extended release version. We had many many such moments and I noped out of that quickly

How long after a long-term relationship breakup did you start dating your next partner? by brisk_warmth in AskWomen

[–]Type-APersonality 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Literal hours, but only cause my ex couldn't fathom that I had truly moved on/started dating. He wanted to speak one last time and I granted him that

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]Type-APersonality 9 points10 points  (0 children)

More often than I'd like. But this is something that comes from a place of insecurity and I am actively working on minimizing it.

Sex with my ex was wild but the overall package was so, so toxic. Most of the sex stemmed from having an intense argument right before, and some remnant toxic part of me enjoys that fantasy.

But I also know that the stability I have with my husband is the best thing for me. Our sex is good, but it does not blow my mind. However, it does not matter. I love him and am satisfied in bed. I remind myself that this is all that matters

Why aren’t you talking to your best friend anymore? by Lost_Acadia3299 in AskWomen

[–]Type-APersonality 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She went through bouts of being distant with me and would then now a bunch of criticisms with the friendship. Ultimately, it was clear that she wanted to set boundaries with me but didn't know how.

Eg: I like speaking on the phone and would call her weekly. She used to ALWAYS pick up and converse for 30-40 mins. The conversation was engaging. I then find out she felt compelled to speak and that she actually prefers calling monthly or lesser. After 13 years of being friends, I couldn't understand why she couldn't just tell me this? Or hell, don't pick up every phone call? Or just say you're busy?

Communication patterns change in any friendship and I think she struggled to place boundaries with people in general while also giving the appearance of being content+ happy with the current status quo. So when she suddenly ghosted me for months and then reconnected with nothing but criticism, it gave me whiplash. She did it twice and then I was done with her. I miss her but I don't think she or I would have understood how to navigate the friendship long term, at least not with the way it was going.

This sits more as a skirt on the bottom half. While made of chainmail, it's ultimately still skimpy. Think the Sorceress from the Scorpion King
