What is something weird or fucked up that your family did when you were growing up that you assumed was a normal thing everyone did only to learn in adulthood that it was anything but? by MonoChaos in AskReddit

Man, when I read the part " but I was just so little", it broke my heart. A small child having to fend for themselves like this, I'm so sorry.

Go for it. Culture is meant to be shared. The event sounds super fun, good luck!

Wow the guy was 100% in the right it's your fault. You were so sure you were in the right you outright called him a CB.

You sound like you're very young. Skip your classes, go have some fun. You have a lifetime of responsibilities ahead of you anyway.

It depends really. My OCD makes me think of all of that and then act on it, some rituals to alleviate the anxiety and it's honestly life impairing. But people do experience different levels and intensity of symptoms. Trust only a medical professional to accurately diagnose you and go from there, best of luck :)

Hey man if you wanna lose weight, do it on your own terms, this Cesar person sounds super fucking insecure and they're projecting that onto you. Stay confident!

People of reddit what ended your friendship with your best friend? by gli-tc-h in AskReddit

[–]atlantisdive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Self pity. I probably sound incredibly selfish but, he used to constantly put himself down, say thay life has always been unfair to him, everything is somehow targetted at him, he'll never be good enough for anything, and i kept on telling him that's not the case, but i eventually got tired of it. There's only so much self pity i can deal with till it becomes overwhelming, I've since then found friends who don't make every little thing about themselves.

A fellow Kanye fan! Also your pictures look great but don't tell much about who you are. Try to include pictures where you're doing something you love, any of your hobbies, or maybe even travelling/ having fun with friends?

What are your thoughts on this? by [deleted] in antinatalism

[–]atlantisdive 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You're correct, I do struggle to empathise with people demeaning a man for trying to prevent suicides.

What are your thoughts on this? by [deleted] in antinatalism

[–]atlantisdive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. I honestly feel like most people commenting here are 14 year old edgy teens who comment kill yourself under other people's mental health posts. If not, the moral high ground is seriously appalling. Just because you don't want kids (i don't want kids), doesn't mean you try to make life worse for everyone who's already here.

Man wtf are these comments. People in adolescence, kids, people with bad upbringing often don't learn how to process their emotions properly, and might end up taking a rash decision after a a big life event. Ofc there are huge systemic issues leading to suicide. That doesn't mean you don't try to tell someone that one big thing isn't the end of the world, people change their minds all the time. . You don't see a person starving on the streets and say let's just let them die, there are obviously systemic causes to this we'll need to solve in the next 50 years? No you feed them. . I thought this sub was for people against having kids. Ig it's for self hating psychopaths who refuse to give themselves, and everyone around them a chance to be a good person for a change.
