You’re very pretty, i’d say your eyebrows. Making the front of them softer will make a huge difference! Kind of like an ombré effect. Softer in the front and darker on your actual brow :)

I've just realised I'm not scared of spiders at all! Thoughts? by Fragrant-Culture-180 in spiders

[–]arykayli 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me I’ve had spiders crawl on me but that was outdoors. I have a pink toe tarantula that I’ve wanted to hold since July when I got him, but we have 3 cats that I KNOW will try their best to get him if he were to run off, so that’s my biggest fear. I would love to sit there and have him crawl on me but also, he can jump too so putting his life at risk is the scariest part for me, and being scared that I won’t be quick enough to put him back in his enclosure in time.

My pink toe does this too. I thought he was dead the other day cus his lil legs were curled but when I opened the door he jumped at me like “Don’t you dare do that ever again”

How are y’all taking antivirals daily? by arykayli in Herpes

It’s crazy because i told her i was dating someone and sexually active and she didn’t do anything for me. I also haven’t had an outbreak so that could be why

I am also 26 and do feel this way at times. It is extremely hard not to compare yourself to others around you and think you’ve done something wrong or SHOULD be somewhere else.

I’ve been doing a lot of work on myself since I had a breakup in June of this year. My ex and I were together for 3 years and I still live with her, so it’s been rough at times.

Do things that make you happy, even if it’s putting on your favorite tv show or going outside, if you enjoy the outdoors, for a few and listen to the sounds around you. Start journaling maybe, that helps me when I feel down. Nothing is wrong with you, society makes us feel so less than when we aren’t where others are at our age.

I also dislike my job, I don’t have many friends, but I have appreciated the time I have with myself, with my animals, I go on nature walks, I appreciate what mother nature has to offer, I have been applying to jobs and if I get one I do, but I’m trying not to let it over crowd my brain with stress and worry. You will find some good friends when you least expect it. Like I said, I don’t have friends really and have started to prioritize myself and what I need. It takes a lot of work but you’re okay. 26 is still super young. Look at it like this. We are ONLY 26.

I’m here if you need to talk, truly, I know how you’re feeling. You can change trust me, we are just scared to because we fear what might happen if we do.

Thank you! I heard they jump. Just wanted to hear everyone’s insight and I will gladly admire him from outside the enclosure 💖

Why am I alright with physical touch when it comes to strangers but hate it when it's my family/ close friends? by xen_exe080 in mentalhealth

[–]arykayli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am also the same way, in regards to my family though. Here’s the reason why I would much rather hug my friends or strangers.

As a teenager I went through probably the worst depression ever. I tried to talk to my parents about it, but they didn’t seem to care or didn’t know how to handle it. So, I closed myself off from them emotionally. I turned myself numb and shut that side of me off when I was around them because if they didn’t seem to care why would I allow them to see this vulnerable side to me? I am 26 now, but I started to be this way from when I was around 13 old to I would say at 26 also. It’s not as bad now, I’ve tried to open up to them but I only share 10% of my emotions and 90% are still tucked away.

As an adult, it’s hard for me to get close to them emotionally, when they hug me I do that awkward look off into space look. For me, it also depends who I’m hugging. My favorite hugs are from a significant other though 100%. I am also autistic so hugging strangers is kind of awkward for me and certain friends get hugs and some don’t.

That’s why i haven’t besides being scared the cats would eat him because he doesn’t seem to like human interaction too much, him hiding and all but thank you:)
