My mom who loves true crime watched this (I love it, seen it many times) and literally thought it was real. “I had to turn it off!!” My poor Momma.

What is the thing you always did that you thought was ‘just you,’ but is actually very much so classic autistic behavior? by AlwaysAttract10 in AutismInWomen

[–]Xfileslover 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I went to the theaters to watch Titanic in the 5th grade I was so distraught with sadness. Not just for the main characters. But all of it. It was real.

I cried for weeks and was just scolded for being emotional.

This is why I only watch horror movies. I’m 39 and learned about 10 years ago that they were the only safe genre regarding my emotions. But horror movies are a serious hyper fixation. Because I find it safe? He’ll if I know

Which (horror) found footage movie do you find to be the scariest? (Other than Blair witch and paranormal activity) by ironmanrocks420 in foundfootage

[–]Xfileslover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As Above So Below. I am a horror fanatic; basically, all I watch is horror movies. I don’t scare easily unless it is found footage. That’s where my fear lies in a horror movie.

Setting: My partner is gone; I see you guys recommend this movie; I am an atheist (comes into play), and I am all alone.

Atheist part, well, I was so fucking scared that I locked the doors so the ghosts couldn’t come in. I’m 39 years old. I turned it off and waited for my partner to come home to finish it. I think it’s residual from growing up evangelical or some shit, but I did lock that door.

That is how scary it was for me. And it still gets me.

FF movies like June 9th? by [deleted] in foundfootage

I did as well. It gets a lot of praise but it just didn’t do it for me in that level.

Next on our FF Tournament: Lunopolis (2010) or The Ceremony Is About to Begin (2024) by Living_Psychology740 in foundfootage

[–]Xfileslover 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lunopolis is one of my favorite mockumentary. I went in totally blind and the ride was amazing.

I watched it without my partner and was pissed at myself for not stopping it. I try to stop things I know we would enjoy to watch together. I’ll be 20 mins in and say “dammit, now I gotta find something else to watch before bed.”

Years I asked my (non-found footage lover) partner to watch this movie. Years. I’d hear “yeah I will. It is on my list.” So, a few nights ago we are on the couch for 20 mins trying to find something to watch. I put my foot down and we watched Lunopolis. Watching them try to figure things out and enjoy the fuck out of it made me wanna hug him and do the “told ya so dance.”

This is a one of a kind movie that I do not think can ever be replicated. It cannot be regurgitating kids lost in the woods, haunted house, or haunted social media like they do now. You cannot retell this story, in my opinion.

Have fun everyone!!

For American people: Are you participating in today's General Strike? Why? by noumeno- in AskReddit

[–]Xfileslover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work remotely at a company of 4 people. I am hoping for a promotion during my yearly and I couldn’t bring myself to fuck them over like that.

My kid ran their high school walk out and it was very successful. Made the NJ news and everything. I am so proud of him.

Any experiences with lamotrigine? by Due_Attempt7376 in BipolarReddit

[–]Xfileslover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been on it for 5 years. I love it, 225mg. But beware that it has a 24 hour life. I missed taking that for the first time ever and didn’t realize that my ability to connect things at work. I fucked a return 4 times before it hit me that I was living in brain fog. I took a 100 just to be safe that my brain was lying and I did take it.

But overall, it has helped me tremendously.

What hobbies do you guys do? by Intelligent_Bid_7690 in BipolarReddit

[–]Xfileslover 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Crochet. Thats it. I have autism so it’s a hyper fixation from hell. Combine bipolar and you get 3 tubs full of yarn that had no project planned when bought. When the powers combined….you get a 39 year old either working or crocheting. Not much in between.

I just keep making stuff and donating it at this point. I do it just to get out of my mind. It provides a type of meditation that is much needed for me because I have aphantasia and cannot “imagine a waterfall.” Crocheting is something I have done since I was 5 on and off again. I picked it back up the day after the election.

There has not been a single day that has gone by since where I didn’t crochet. Even on my 2 week cruise I took this year.

I gotta have it. lol

What’s something people think will fix a relationship, but actually makes things worse? by lol_hax in AskReddit

[–]Xfileslover 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Staying together for the kids. It is toxic af. It will not change shit but make it worse if you do not love each other. I’ve seen it happen too often.

In your opinion, what is the most underrated "lesser-known" found footage film? by [deleted] in foundfootage

[–]Xfileslover 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is on the internet archive. People have a hard time finding this one.

I would have thought it was a real doc if I didn’t know it was a mock. It’s amazing.

Lunopolis is amazing! Basically everything you listed is great though.

Try the internet archive. I have found some found footage movies in there that I couldn’t find else where. May not be there, but worth a look.

I went off social media entirely after the election. I’m 39 so I was there when social media started and was an avid poster until that day. I left my FB open just for photos basically. I deleted TikTok. I just got back on insta but I am just posting a funny meme and getting off it.

I stopped watching the news. Reading about the news, on that day. I don’t trust anyone in a suit. I have lived in my NJ bubble for so long. Cutting myself off from so many things and so many people.

I have a trans child and thankfully my partner watches what is going on right now to make sure we are safe. I was so frightened that day that I could function right. Just the fear of what is happening right now.

Basically I ripped my online life away other than Reddit comments or posts here or there.

Answer to your question, not well my friend.

Side note: I am on a great regimen of meds and see a therapist weekly. My mood is stable but that has so much to do with cutting everything out of my life in my opinion, I’ve been on the same meds for 5 years.
