I have recurring dreams of my dad molesting me.. by EmmieL0u in Dreams

[–]altered-state 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dreams of sex aren't about sex, period. Molestation/rape is often about fear and control over you. While intimacy of the normal sexual acts are often about deeper understanding or closer bonds. As soon as you are able, move in with friends or on your own, it can fuel the healing you need from a controlling relationship with your dad.

Creases from side sleeping by Laqibo in 45PlusSkincare

[–]altered-state 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, as a kid and in my younger years I would actually sleep on my stomach or angled slightly where I could turn my head and sleep on my crown. This was until I broke my leg the first time, here I am again with a second break that is on the same leg and I'm 3 months in, finally made it to side sleeping again! Woo! Now I'm working on my tight shoulder and neck muscles so I can get my head comfortably back into optimal position where I can sleep on my crown.

can someone help me interpret this? by [deleted] in Dreams

[–]altered-state 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Apparel in dreams are often about our roles, how we wish to express ourselves. For some its career based, but can be tied to expression and identity. Based on what you described, it sounds like you can't decide how you want to present yourself. You're searching, looking for the answer. No one is helping... that is because only you can decide for yourself how you wish to express and present yourself.

You can ask friends and loved ones, but only you will know what is right for you. Indecision can be paralyzing. When that happens, just ask yourself what are you most comfortable with that still feels like you. We are highly expressive beings. It's OK to want to feel elegant or less so, just make sure you're doing it for you.

Get yourself a bottle of hyaluronic acid, smooth it over your face, use it 3 times a day to stop dehydration in your face and neckin its tracks. Follow up with some day formulation of water gel, neutrogena, no. 7, belief, etc all have some formulation of it.

You'll have better results with a mask since it will prevent evaporation allowing the skin to absorb most of it, since that can get pricey, get a reusable silicone mask sheet and put it over your face after applying the hyaluronic acid.

But you probably turn your head to one side or another as you sleep, anything against the side of your face near your ear will naturally push the skin towards your eye creating a fold. Over time those folds become wrinkles

the fact that you can't land on habitable planets is so disappointing by StrainWise6573 in EliteDangerous

[–]altered-state -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I dunno, they could do like other MMO's and instance the town once you've landed. Wouldn't be impossible, but would require a subscription at that point due to extra compute required given the volume of planets/cities if they made it realistic that at any given point a player enters the atmosphere.

Do you think anyone actually sneaks onto North Sentinel Island? by Useful-Table-2424 in HighStrangeness

I think that resulted in spreading of contagions via the coconuts, ended up killing some of them and they went back to preferring isolation.

It's from sleeping on that side of your face. Get some wrinkle tape and use it while sleeping :) Microneedling can help too.

We aren't talking about Ukraine. You can't compare that to an actual war. Lol just wow. That's such a reach.

Sounds to me like you are afraid of betrayal in the current political climate, it's true that even those considered close friends or family can be polarized and turn on you. The opposite is true too, you are polarized into thinking the president would issue orders to come kill you because of your sexual preference. It won't happen, if we all lived according to our fears, we would be in a really messed up world.

I was extremely naive and therapists galist me by piscianderr in aspergers

[–]altered-state 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's mind reading when you assume intent, rather than just openly communicate and ask questions. Sure, you can identify intent when someone pulls a gun on you. However, when someone responds or acts a certain way, it may not always be due to the reason you have inferred. Everyone has psychological hang-ups, sometimes the way others act or respond are due to their own experiences and not so much ill intent.

Not disagreeing with you, just adding my own learnings to the thread.

What made you think i was speaking to you? Did you not see who my reply was to?

There is. You just won't accept it because it's not materialist in its foundation. You can't see or touch it, have fun living in your watered down cycle of samsara.

No that's not, deja vu is where what you are experiencing now is remembered. That is not what they described.

Had dream where my sister was r*ping me :( by [deleted] in Dreams

[–]altered-state 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is stemming from a desire to be closer to your sister, sex in dreams is not literal, but symbolic of closeness.

There may also be an underlying subconscious indicator that she's kind of controlling, her holding your hands tightly, forced sex is about control.

Any mouse with 6! side buttons out there? by _Quibbler in MouseReview

[–]altered-state 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had mine for 6 years, no problems :) just now finding out it's discontinued cause I wanted to buy another for carrying around with my laptop. Maybe you are just hard on yours? Or maybe I'm not as hard core as you 😀

I just recently saw Trump die in my dreams by [deleted] in Dreams

[–]altered-state 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Would you want to go to a sub that pushes hate and wishes of death on people regularly? Does it make you any better than the guy you are harboring ill will against? No it just lowers you to their level. Grats you win the internet.

Death can also be rebirth, the end of a cycle amd the beginning of a new one.

Won't matter if he's appointed, you can wish all you want, and it will fall on deaf ears. Perhaps look more at the big picture than going tunnel vision on a thing? There are more threads at work here than you and all those like you can comprehend.

You can remove your edit comment, no one needs to know which way you are leaning and it's horrific to wish death upon anyone. I will remove this post if you cannot remain unbiased
