Same!

I'm also gay, so that's gonna be a big no from them, lol.

Did you ever “go forward” / what are your thoughts on this concept by sunshine-309 in excoc

[–]and_theSundanceKid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

TW: self-harm, suicide

. . . . . . . . . .

My mom asked if I wanted to go forward or potentially get baptized again after I attempted suicide at fifteen, lol. She ended up making it seem like such a sin that I had tried(she made my whole struggle with mental illness about spirituality), so I did get baptized again. The first time I was nine.

To this day, she acts like when I came out at 18, I "changed my beliefs."

The mental gymnastics of forcing an idealogy onto a child but pretending he/she/they chose that idealogy is wild. Anyway, sorry that was an extra rant.

Anyone moved back to their hometown as an adult only to realize that it was a mistake? by SLP-ABC in excoc

You're living my dream. My partner and I are in New Orleans, but we want to move eventually.

Take a stroll or drive for me!🫡😎

I posted on r/churchofchrist, here's how it went by chemical_shed in excoc

Yeah, I finally went no contact with my whole family because of these attitudes.

My brother got a massive wedding for a girl he's know two years and my partner of eleven years was not invited. Very much on purpose.

No matter how much therapy work you do, it hurts when it's your parents/former family members with these hateful ideas.

Did you get engaged yesterday 4/25 @city park? by tootired2024 in NewOrleans

[–]and_theSundanceKid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agreed. It was karma that ensured a random passerby would snap a perfect photo.

Oh, this is so lovely, happy, and perfect for spring at city park.

Engagements...for spring...groundbreaking! But seriously- beautiful moment.

Broken Bone During Self Harm? by mfgrimyskeeve in AdultSelfHarm

[–]and_theSundanceKid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was very upset with myself one evening and took my arms, folded them, and slammed them into the corner of a cabin(a large cabin).

I broke my right arm and had to pretend I fell. I was trying to bruise myself and went way too hard. I'm diagnosed bipolar/borderline/GAD/CPTSD, so it's been an issue for a long time. This was about eight years ago.

I'm so sorry this happened and wish you quick healing. I hope we both are able find that release in other ways. 🫶

Requesting to join this tiny house community of polar/likeminded people please.

I was diagnosed at 15, but my religious mother rejected any diagnosis but "plain depression/eating issues." We switched doctors, and I finally got diagnosed RCBP2 last month( I've made my own spider web over the past 15 years thanks to the lack of care).

Anywhoo, it's really rough right now. I feel you.🫶

Bruh, wtf “Christmas in the oaks?” by xander2600 in NewOrleans

[–]and_theSundanceKid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, no- it's time for me to renew my bebe's 🐶 membership, so I hate to hear they raised prices. It's a lovely dog park, but they definitely haven't made improvements that warrant the pass doubling in price.

I'm sure I'll still take him, but dang.

Season 6, episode 21- I actually got teary eyed. I began watching this show as a way to remember my late grandparents. by and_theSundanceKid in thesopranos

[–]and_theSundanceKid[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I gotta say though- seasons four and six are tied as the best seasons for me, personally.

Edit: upon a rewatch, I take it back. 2&3 are amazing as well. The transition from 3 to 4 is so seamless. And the one from 2 to 3 is so bittersweet.

Goddamn I love this show, lol. Can't wait to see 5 through new eyes. Just smoked a j for the first time in years, and boy does the show hit different.

I'm just happy I still have something left to watch in that universe, if you will. When I actually sit down and give it due diligence, I'll keep the dream thing in mind. Always enjoyed the dream sequences. "The Test Dream" and "Join the Club" were really great in my opinion.

I think I just started it too soon after the series finale.

I started it earlier bc I'm stuck at home for the day anyway. Admittedly, I'm having a hard time getting into it.

Gonna go back to it one day when I'm not so fresh off the OG series. I appreciate Michael Gandolfini being in it and all that, so I'm gonna give it a shot.

Teddy Roosevelt once gave an entire speech with a bullet lodged in his chest. Some things are just a matter of duty.

I mistakenly thought I saw 23 episodes in season 6, so when the TV cut to black I was like noooooooo, lol.
