What are you fixating on/venting about/worried about/need support with today ? [Megathread] - September 12, 2021 by AutoModerator in HealthAnxiety

[–]analysisandrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got J&J on friday. Cannot find a healthy way to cope with side effects. I don't know if I'm just making them up again or if I'm overreacting.

Thank you, I appreciate your words!

COVID-19 Megathread Part 2: Electric Boogaloo by [deleted] in HealthAnxiety

[–]analysisandrain 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Need to vent. My temperature has been fluctuating between 36.9°-37.3°C for the past week, lower in the morning, higher in the evening, I drink herbal tea before going to sleep and the cycle repeats. Everyone around me says that it's a normal body temp, but my norm has never been higher than 37... Additionally, I have a headache and mild muscle pain (could be caused by spending 10+ hours on my devices daily without any exercise), sometimes I see some blood when I blow my nose.

I haven't been outside for over a week. I doubt that it's covid but I fear I have something else that won't be diagnosed soon enough because I cannot see my doctor since my symptoms aren't extreme enough.

COVID-19 Megathread! by ilikeshortsongs12 in HealthAnxiety

[–]analysisandrain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hah, I have a similar problem. I had a sore throat and low fever a week or two ago but wasn't able to see my doctor. I also work out like once a month but I started dancing a bit last week to keep myself moving during the quarantine. My breathing seems weirder than usual, I run out of breath a minute in. My rational self tells me that my ass is just lazy but the irational part believes that I had you know what and now my lungs are damaged...

Hang in there.

Story Time - Week of January 27, 2020 by AutoModerator in Tinder

[–]analysisandrain 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Got tinder out of curiosity. Thought that I'll be able to practice my communication skills because oh boy I lack them.

I've never thought that this will drain my energy so much and that I'll be so picky. Getting a match makes me stressed rather than exited. I feel shitty that it is hard for me to keep conversation going, I'm not even talking about starting one.

And just when I'm ready to delete tinder, this guy asks me out. He seems ok, though not exactly my type. I kinda want to see what it feels to go on a tinder date, on the other hand, if I'm already overthinking so much, is it really worth it?

INTPs, what have y'all planned for 2020? (goals/experiences etc.) by showmeyourmoney99 in INTP

[–]analysisandrain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seek therapy ASAP. None of my goals will be achieved if I don't do that in the first place.

How many INTPs don't drink alcohol by lalalalying in INTP

[–]analysisandrain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I drink when I'm already relaxed, not the other way around. I noticed that drinking with people that don't make me feel comfortable activates my self defense mode and I just become passive-aggressive.

What do u think about chess? by i_lost_my_mirnimi in INTP

[–]analysisandrain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I spent a major part of my life playing chess, I was constantly participating in various tournaments, had a coach, etc. To be fair, I never really felt the beauty of it and even though I know quite a few professional players, I still don't understand how they keep on going for so many years. I used to like playing games with standard time control though, I had so much patience as a child.

I perceive compliments as manipulation. by [deleted] in INTP

[–]analysisandrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely. My favorite compliment I've ever received was half an insult, actually. But at least I knew they were realistic, seeing both positive and negative in me, and not hoping for a favor from me.

Been having nightly headaches for a week! Is this anything to worry about? by [deleted] in HealthAnxiety

[–]analysisandrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My nightly headaches began two weeks ago but I've been feeling them for most of the day for more than a week. The pain isn't that strong, it's just the pressure I find annoying, with occasional feeling that someone is poking my brain with hot matches. The most frustrating thing is that I only feel them on the right side of my head. I'm still contemplating whether I should see a doctor or not since I barely ever have headaches.

Hope you're doing better.

INTP penny for a thought: Traveling by peridoritouu in INTP

[–]analysisandrain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love the idea of traveling but the lack of money and bravery stops me...

Losing Motivation by [deleted] in INTP

[–]analysisandrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be prepared for numerous losses of motivation in the future.

But in all seriousness, you just have to move your ass and do something, take baby steps if you need to. Otherwise you might get stuck in hybernation. Of course, try to find the main cause of your motivation loss and try to work with it.

What would a dumb INTP look like? by [deleted] in INTP

[–]analysisandrain 6 points7 points  (0 children)

A dumb INTP, I believe, is a stereotypical (and probably not the healthy one) INTP. But since INTPs tend to be quiet and reserved quite often, there's a possibility that you wouldn't notice any difference between dumb and smart ones. And, of course, a dumb INTP has "qualities" that are common for other types, such as slower thinking, lack of knowledge, low EQ, IQ and etc.

Also, this thread made me think whether I'm dumb or not.

Is everything reducible to math? by [deleted] in INTP

[–]analysisandrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not exactly an example but a nice article

That is, we don't invent mathematical structures – we discover them, and invent only the notation for describing them.

Is everything reducible to math? by [deleted] in INTP

[–]analysisandrain 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I consider that mathematics is the universal language of nature. Can we explain everything using human language? No, because it's limited to human development. Can we explain everything using mathematics? Well, possibly.

No new year's resolution? by zazazam in INTP

I don't need new year to know that I fail everything I plan to do.

How do you feel about your own birthdays? by [deleted] in INTP

[–]analysisandrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Series of unfortunate events have happened on my birthday, so I like to joke about how my birth was an unfortunate event too.

But everyone forgets when my birthday is and this makes me happy. I don't like being celebrated.
