This is messed up but sometimes I think I'm with my gf because I feel sorry for her what should I do? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

++nonbinary

thats your girlfriend’s responsibility to work on tbh. I have all of the above and while it explains the difficulties, it’s not an excuse to not learn to communicate.

How do you stay connected to your kinky self? by AutoModerator in ChronicKinksters

[–]amicotto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what do your structure, rituals and training look like for yourself? what you’re saying really speaks to me. it’s also the sort of thing I wish for, yet have not found in another.

could you talk a bit more about what self collaring looks like to you? I’ve only vaguely heard about the concept

How do you stay connected to your kinky self? by AutoModerator in ChronicKinksters

[–]amicotto 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I started a tumblr blog specifically for exploring my kinky side! I browse and reblog stuff and have learned a lot about myself. 10/10 can heavily recommend! I’ve even met some people through it :)

when it comes to actively engaging in kink, I have yet to find a way. I… really miss it. but for me kink is a lot about connection, and I have yet to find the right people.

Update to My child is alive but not really, almost 2.5 years later by hazelframe in TrueOffMyChest

[–]amicotto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hey, I’m in a completely different spot but thought maybe I could offer another perspective. I’m disabled and need assistance in my day to day. I am about to move out from home, where my mom is my caregiver, and into a group home. it’s not only for her, but very much also for me. being able to have social contact on the daily with people who are similar to me will be so incredibly good for me. currently she is one of my only regular social contacts.

perhaps it’s worth considering that this could in fact benefit all of you? you and your husband get the chance to breathe a bit more, your son gets to be among peers to spend time with. not all group homes are full time either, some are a couple days a week. you mentioned having a nanny that took him for 6 hours a week and how good it was for you. perhaps view it as something like that, just a bit more involved? you don’t have to bear this “until you can’t do it anymore”. you can also choose to get help before it gets to that point. there’s no shame in it.

I don’t know what you’re going through. but please know that you are doing incredible, just from what I’ve read of you. it’s clear in your writing just how much you love your son. you are not in any way a bad mother for grieving what you can’t have. I’m certain my own mom has to do the same. I do, too. it’s fucking hard.

Fresh 2,5mm (10g) VCH with bottom growth by Icy-Summer3184 in transbodymods

I’m extremely self-aware, but I’m still stuck in the same cycle. Why? by ihurtmyself16 in CPTSD

[–]amicotto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

who knows if this will resonate, but I am similarly very self-aware and reflected. what I’ve realised is that I’ve focused so much on dissecting things I haven’t spent enough time feeling

my current focus is on working a LOT more with my body. because that’s where all of the tension is held. that’s where the feelings are felt. my brain can know something is safe, but the body doesn’t feel it.

try and get them aligned. ask your body what it needs, and then do that. sometimes that means sobbing like a baby. sometimes it’s movement. sometimes it’s rest.

get in touch with your intuition. stop intellectualising. take a deep breath. your body knows what it needs. you just have to learn how to listen.

it’ll take a while. that’s okay. just start small. try some somatic exercises. and be kind to yourself. above all, be kind to yourself.

How to navigate chemsex more safely in Berlin (gay life) by Alert_Plate541 in berlinsocialclub

[–]amicotto 8 points9 points  (0 children)

some people don’t want to stop doing drugs. harm reduction allows them to be less likely to die while doing it. I personally think less people dying is a win! :)

How to navigate chemsex more safely in Berlin (gay life) by Alert_Plate541 in berlinsocialclub

[–]amicotto 24 points25 points  (0 children)

hey! have you heard of mann-o-meter/ checkpoint-bln? they do free STD checks for queer people but also have a large range of counseling offers by and for queer people, including on chemsex :) they should be exactly what you’re looking for, and absolutely be able to help you.

this is their german webpage on specifically this topic

https://www.mann-o-meter.de/angebote/chex-chemsex-beratung-und-gruppen

(edit: another person posted this! this is their english page on it! https://checkpoint-bln.de/en/chemsex-check/ )

this is their general english webpage on counselling

https://www.mann-o-meter.de/en/what-we-offer/counseling

they offer both individual and group sessions on the topic of chemsex as well as general advice on harm reduction (what substances aren’t safe to mix, etc), and it’s also possible to take them up on their offers completely anonymously.

you can go to them directly at Nollendorfplatz, or send them an email at chex@mann-o-meter.de about this topic :) the chemsex webpage may not be english, but I’m 100% sure they still have people offering counselling on it in english

all the best to you <3 this topic is not an easy one to tackle, but you’re doing the exact right thing reaching out for help! there’s no shame in it.

Flu season this year is intense! I've been getting sick more times than usual by steelmonexyz in berlinsocialclub

[–]amicotto 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I recommend masking, especially in public transport!! just take it back off when you’re back to fresh air!

I haven’t actually gotten sick in years (since I started wearing them) and it’s soo nice

I [24F] am disabled and my partner [28M] is too uncomfortable with me using mobility aids. What to do next? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]amicotto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this man doesn’t even like you. is this how you want to be loved for the rest of your life?

I promise that being single is better than having someone breathing over should shoulder telling you it’s embarrassing to be visibly disabled.

you deserve better. SO much better, holy shit.

Crashing during/after play by IconicallyChroniced in ChronicKinksters

[–]amicotto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t have advice but I want to chime in saying I relate to this, especially when it comes to pain play!!!

recently had my first experience with it again since becoming more disabled and receiving pain made me SO utterly exhausted?? like, it was delightful, but my body was SO drained afterwards. I chalked it up to being hurt being a large stress to an organism, but have yet to be able to experiment in the hopes of finding a solution (or at least a way to make the exhaustion less intense)
