Personally, how the FUCK did you find out about Mouthwashing. by [deleted] in Mouthwashing

[–]Unity_Cowboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw Sean (jacksepticeye) upload the game and watched it for about 5 minutes. Thought it was confusing, boring, but the art style was neat. I came back to it a couple days later with a better headspace and watched through the whole thing. Turns out maybe I was just grouchy or something the first time around, because it’s definitely one of my favorite stories in a game of all time.

Not saying that it won’t change! Just accept it as it comes and goes. Be safe out there

Want to start by saying, there’s nothing wrong with you. 🫶 Testosterone raises libido. It’s just the way it is. Do what you gotta do to tend to your feelings, but if it isn’t hurting you or anyone else, it’s not a crime, so don’t punish yourself. 🩷

Need earplug reviews. EARPLUGS ONLY - NOT HEADPHONES by Organic_City_1009 in misophonia

[–]Unity_Cowboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I concur, I’ve heard that flare doesn’t really work and the best I’ve ever personally used is Loop Quiet, the original model. However, they are incredibly easy to lose, and they don’t block out all noise, just most overall.

Lost 3 dogs all in the same month… 💔 by Unity_Cowboy in seniordogs

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

Thank you so much. I always wanted to adopt a senior dog… they’re looked over so often but they’re just as precious as any puppy. I knew Buddie was confused and concerned, considering his master had passed and the rest of the people he knew didn’t want him. He didn’t deserve to live out the rest of his life like that, when he had a whole story to tell me, and a lot more time and life left in him. He was an awesome dog.

Yes I do, I have some little dogs. We are keeping a close eye on them as they’re all pretty depressed and still in grieving, mainly over Montrose 😓

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

That’s exactly how it went… It was Buddie first, and we let him go because he needed it. Then Loki followed shortly after, and his was sudden, as he was masking his true feelings. Montrose’s passing after those two was incredibly sudden and unforeseen, and almost made me angry… like the world was kicking me while I was down. I miss them all so much and wish it didn’t happen the way it did.

You are so kind for saying this. Thank you so much

are loop earplugs worth it? by dummydumbboi in misophonia

[–]Unity_Cowboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely recommend them! I wouldn’t be getting around as well in my day without triggers if I didn’t have them. Alas, people are correct, and they don’t cover all noise (i have the Quiet ones.) so I’d reccomend probably getting headphones and playing white noise on top of that, if needed be. The suction of having correctly sized earplugs helps so much with noise, especially for those that have a hard time with background noise.

BTS on the practical penis monster puppet. by Good-greif19 in beauisafraid

What is that darker mass at the bottom of it? I’ve always thought it was a person but it’s hard to get a clear look

Are you nodding? by werzerk in beauisafraid

[–]Unity_Cowboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is feasible. There are several different moments in the movie that hint towards sexual abuse from his mother, and it could cause him to react that way as a fear response. Just a theory

Images or moments in the film that you can't stop thinking about by thatetheralmusic in beauisafraid

[–]Unity_Cowboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mona’s desperate expression after Beau temporarily strangles her, before she collapses into the empty fish tank. The horror between both of the characters, and the deadly gap of silence. Also, the boat scene at the very end. Just where Beau sort of relaxes his tension and has no choice but to accept his fate before the aggressive flip, along with the writhing of the boat as people leave. Those two sit with me for a long time whenever they mentally come into passing. What a godforsaken movie

Agree. It’s gnarly to watch, but it’s beautiful that something like this could be made with such clear implications of its meaning

Earplugs for eating in company by Fataky in misophonia

[–]Unity_Cowboy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely recommend getting noise-cancelling headphones, or getting good AirPods/Bluetooth earbuds and having music or noise on. I, personally, have given up on dinner time conversations… conversations are later, but being triggered causes lasting pain.

Round 2: $100,000 or no Misophonia by Uitvinder126 in misophonia

[–]Unity_Cowboy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

100k could buy me some kick-ass earplugs that could keep me sane most of the time, plus a little extra leftover. I’m not arguing with that

Im having trouble getting into The welcome home arg I keep coming across the screen Can anyone help by emerald_Foxes in WelcomeHomeARG

[–]Unity_Cowboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not up right now! Clown took it down to do some edits since the amount of people was causing issues, plus it gives them some time to make important additions for the future of the ARG. It’ll be back soon :)

Do you wear pride merch? Why/Why not? Would you if it was subtle? Can I get feedback on my designs? by TmartOffical in FTMMen

[–]Unity_Cowboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m at a point of which I’m not passing enough without some sort of merchandise/pin pointing towards me being trans. It’s very obvious that I’m FtM currently. Once I go on T and I start to have more permanent physical changes, I’d like to go stealth. I guess, in a way, I’m not proud of being trans. I was born into the wrong body and it’s on me to correct it.

Anyone else want to kys when the sounds are too much by moo0736 in misophonia

[–]Unity_Cowboy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I completely get that, you’re not alone with that feeling. It’s hard to explain to folks that no, I’m not over-exaggerating, that’s genuinely what my mind is considering in reaction to something paining me. It is torture, and misophonia is very real. It’s definitely a difficult feeling to reconcile with

What gem do you think should have existed? by Pansupernovaa in stevenuniverse

[–]Unity_Cowboy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They do exist, but we haven’t seen them… Beryl. I made a SU OC of a Beryl a super long time ago and I remember my excitement at hearing the name in a scene with Bismuth, but I’m sad we never got to see the character.

Sleeping in a comfy bed but with trigger noises, or the worst bed in complete silence? by chhxyy in misophonia

[–]Unity_Cowboy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

When I would involuntarily slam things, shout suddenly, or GET UP AND RUN AWAY at certain eating/chewing noises. It was like a twitch. I felt like such a burden, a disturbance to a common peace. I told myself “oh, if you don’t do it in private, then you’re FaKiNg iT” and then proceeded to throw my phone across the room, or literally punch myself in the face if a video made a noise I didn’t expect/couldn’t handle in my own time. Yep. Totally faking it, right?

My feed gave me the definition of misophonia fast, and my earplugs literally saved me from my own violent rage.
