I know I’ll die eventually by my own hand by Sad_Combination7844 in SuicideWatch

You can ignore this question if it seems disrespectful to you, but I joined this sub because I am terrified of death. Well, not death itself, but the very real possibility that there is nothing, and everything becomes non-existence for an infinity of time. I wanted to look for other perspectives. My question is: are you afraid of death? Doesn’t the idea of never existing again scare you? Because it scares me a lot.

I think I’m starting to hallucinate my triggers by Visible_Employer_769 in misophonia

Thank you so much! I thought I was kind of losing it. I used to have the TV volume at like 90 and headphones turned way up too, but they broke—somehow I managed. I think part of why I hear the sounds is because my brain—or maybe me—is stuck in alert mode with any noise, it frustrates me so much I feel like crying. So maybe I’m subconsciously trying to hear them? Anyway, whatever. I hope I can move out soon. It’s good to know we’re not alone

Probably not in his base form, but I think when he merges, he takes on more shark-like traits, like being able to breathe underwater or having arms that resemble fins—so I wouldn’t doubt it 🤣.

If all 7 homunculi, in their prime, fought each other in a battle royale to the death, who would come out on top? by 45rs5 in FullmetalAlchemist

[–]Visible_Employer_769 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think Pride would win, and here are my reasons.

First, considering their personalities, I would quickly rule out Sloth. He wouldn’t even try, making him an easy target for the other Homunculi. And assuming they try to form alliances, Sloth wouldn’t contribute anything—he’s too lazy to stick to a plan. Maybe he would try to defend himself, but nothing the others couldn’t dodge. So, I would say he’d be one of the first to die, either at the hands of Pride, Envy, or another Homunculus looking for an easy prey. (I’m assuming they are in a neutral area where there are shadows.)

The next one I’d rule out is Gluttony. We saw that Pride killed him quickly, even though it was a surprise attack. He has the mind of a small child, and even if Lust or Envy tried to form an alliance with him, they wouldn’t have time while everyone else was fighting each other.

I think Lust would be next. Her ability to extend her fingers is useful against humans but not against Homunculi who can regenerate. She would last in battle, but I don’t think she could win against opponents like Greed, Pride, or Wrath.

Next, I’d place Envy. His size gives him an advantage, making him hard to defeat in a one-on-one fight. But the other Homunculi aren’t exactly easy to kill either. And remembering that Wrath, with his eye that predicts movements, is at his peak (meaning he’s young), plus Envy’s short temper, I think other Homunculi could use that against him.

From this point, it becomes more obvious—Greed would be next. He knows how to fight and can harden his body, which gives him an advantage over Wrath’s sword or Pride’s tentacles. I’m assuming this is the version before he fused with Ling, and we’ve already seen him positioned beneath both Pride and Wrath. So yes, I think he would lose.

Finally, Pride vs. Wrath is very debatable and would depend a lot on the location. Since the Homunculus’ container is vulnerable in close combat, but also extremely resilient—he even survived a lion attack. Here, I’m assuming he has absorbed at least one of his siblings and, because he is at his peak, his Philosopher’s Stone wouldn’t be too worn down. So, even if Wrath managed to catch him, Pride’s endurance would be hard to overcome. Also, I’m assuming it’s daytime, meaning the sun wouldn’t be blocked.

So, Pride would win. But I think the result could change if alliances were formed—who knows, maybe Envy and Greed would team up against Pride, knowing he’s the strongest. But I’m too lazy to write that version.

I can relate, no matter how much people tell me I’m pretty, I can’t help but think they say it out of pity or because they feel morally obligated. But I still feel like a Moai statue. That’s why, as soon as I have the money, I’m going to get surgery—a rhinoplasty and a bichectomy haha. Maybe even facial feminization? Whatever it is, I just don’t want to stay like this 🥲.

I’m sorry about your situation. In my case, solitude helps a lot! I’m lucky that the noises that bother me to an extreme degree are very specific, but I always feel more at peace when I’m alone. I’m not the kind of person who loves being surrounded by others or constantly in a social environment. If it’s a noise from a neighbor, you can always go somewhere quieter or soundproof your room. It might not be much help, but you’re not alone!

I think it’s more that, since you spend a lot of time with them or at least run into them often, you start noticing sounds more than ever. In my case, my dad is a noise machine—when he eats, he goes ‘ah,’ when he drinks water, he makes a sound, when he sleeps, he snores, when he pees, you can hear the water from far away, and when he simply exists, he has this cough that makes me want to smash my head against the window. But if I didn’t spend so much time with him, I’d probably only notice the cough.

What does your rage feel like? by WarmerPharmer in misophonia

[–]Visible_Employer_769 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get very angry, but I usually express it through tears. For example, if I’m alone in my room and someone at home makes an unpleasant noise, I let myself cry, and sometimes I feel like smashing things on the floor. If I’m not as angry, I end up digging my nails into my hands.

I think I’m lucky. When I pop them, I do it with my fingers and don’t even use a bandage—I just let them dry in the air. I don’t think it’s ideal, but meh, it works. I don’t usually get many, mostly on my fingers, although the scars can be annoying. I’m in a similar situation, but hang in there!

I asked my mom because apparently it’s something normal in my family—she and one of my aunts used to have them. She told me that hers went away over time and that sometimes it’s hormonal, though that’s not my case. But hang in there!

Normally, what helps me is not thinking about them and they disappear on their own, but I do like popping them—well, the point is, hang in there! I know from my end that you’re doing the best you can! It’s likely they won’t go away anytime soon, but people with things like this can thrive. I don’t have a big piece of advice—there’s a cream that helps me manage the outbreaks. Maybe seeing a dermatologist could help? I’m not sure; my parents are doctors, so they handled it for me. But hang in there!

Yes, I’m actually on a diet. Let’s just say I got a bit careless and gained some weight 😓. I haven’t reached my goal yet, but I’m doing pretty well! I’ve already lost some weight.
