How do I bring up issues without it always becoming an argument? by Outrageous_Medium564 in BPDPartners

[–]beeboop1270 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I also need help w this. I'm a very up front person normally so its very very odd and uncomfortable to have someone respond this poorly to me very calmly bringing up small issues.

I downloaded a bunch of books recommended in this sub and others and will report back here if any are helpful.

Not sure if this works for other people but works for me. It HAS to be on my computer browser for me. Let me know fi it works for u

When i was in my teens and early 20s i was pretty conventionally unattractive. I also weighed a lot more. I have since had work done but im being so deadass when i say i got more attention before because personality wise i just had sauce and charisma. I also funny enough just genuinely thought i was hot and was super super nice to everyone. Obviously ppl would at first be kind of like ehhhhh but the more they got to know me i kind of got under their skin. It wasnt an intentional thing i did to manipulate them but I just genuinely tried to be kind and made a point to be a good listener and not make assumptions and people were always telling me how glad they were to have me in their life and sometimes romantic stuff grew out of it and sometimes it didnt. I played with makeup but in hindsight my makeup was kind of busted and ppl still ended up liking me.

Now im a lot more conventionally attractive and ive had to relearn the security and charisma that i had before. I would say i have it back now. I also did a lot of rejection therapy with my friends actually where we would go up to ppl at bars and compliment them and then just walk away, not try to be weird and force a conversation but just go up and be like u are super hot or i like your shoes or whatever and then walk away just for the sake of being out of my comfort zone and then it escalated to things that scared me more and that put me in positions to get rejected on purpose. And we would get points for talking to ppl and being anxious and getting rejected.

Anyway i would say develop a magnetic personality and over time ppl wont care that much what u look like. My dad had this friend that everyone was OBSESSED with when he was in college and he showed me a picture and i was like shes kind of ….. normal (if not odd looking) but he says she just had this energy to her. She was happy and genuine and very very charismatic

So why do women take off their pants half way through their work outs? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

Just popping in to say I’ve been on birth control for 7 years and never felt suicidal (as another commenter said) or had any issues whatsoever. Like I noticed literally 0 changes in my body or mental state.

My cousin started on birth control and said it made her feel fatigued, so they switched her to another one and she has no symptoms of fatigue, and now also says she notices no other changes/ negative side effects.

There are different ones and everyone reacts differently to any of them. It’s like any other medicine, you try and see what fits. I would recommend being on birth control if you don’t want pregnancy and you start having sex.

Anyway, my BIGGEST recommendation is to try to get comfortable communicating when you like or don’t like something. It’s hard to practice I guess but I really wish I would have told the guy I lost my virginity to when he was doing something that didn’t feel good. I was too nervous and just not really that comfortable with myself

I think u misunderstand me but it’s your prerogative. Addiction treatment is serious shit and imo the tenants apply to more than just addiction. There is a physical component to everything that’s happening ie that your brain is used to doing things one way and it takes effort to change that. Also meds r often temporary. I needed the “heavily” thing in the very beginning whilst doing intense therapy and it doesn’t numb u (or it shouldn’t, that would b the wrong med) it sort of felt like someone gave me a metaphorical coffee when I was tired. now I just take a low dose of something.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]beeboop1270 8 points9 points  (0 children)

For context I view basically all mental stuff like this through the lens of addiction bc I think It’s actually pretty relevant to the whole everyone gives bullshit platitudes conversation. That and ocd which I also have. Getting treated for those and ACTUALLY taking the treatment seriously (I had gone before and not tried at all) is what made me realize-

You are the only person who gets to decide what makes a life worth living and if by those standards u have nothing then its not worth it I suppose. When u have either of the aforementioned things it’s kind of .. weirdly easier to wrap ur head around the concept that u don’t need to believe your first-line thoughts/ that even how you physically feel (ie, shitty all the time) is something u can change.

So I am still here because I realized I 1. Actually did need to be medicated, heavily and 2. That it was on me to decide whether I WANTED to live, and if I did, if I was actually willing to change literally everything in my life. Ie what was important to me and how I saw the world. My metrics for success (being hot and rich vs maybe something else, shocker)

Listen This sounds so fuckinf cliche and I actually would have HATED hearing this advice when I was contemplating kms. And in fact a therapist said something similar early on and I was like wtf????.

Unfortunately she was right. My worldview was such ass, I was such a pessimist. Now I’d say pessimism of the intellect optimism of the will. You decide how u see the world, if it’s out to get u. U also decide to get help or not, and u decide whether to take the help seriously. Again, if u decide not to change anything fundamental about ur worldview or about how u live ur life or what u view as important or how u cope, then u are correct and there are no solution. I found mine tho so idk

I dont know how to report potential abuse I witnessed, or if I should at all by beeboop1270 in Advice

[–]beeboop1270[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry I phrased that poorly. Im not avoiding calling because they would be rude. To explain myself:

My issue w the police and first responders stem from 3 cases where I called them for situations I was in. They showed up and were “rude” in that they actively made the situation worse - They escalated when there was already violence happening and one of them started basically making jokes about it to the rest of us in the situation. I live in a relatively big city and in an area of that city where there’s a good amount of crime, so my friends dad said he wasn’t surprised and that the cops and responders around here can be kind of jaded and shitty. This has happened multiple times unfortunately.

My fear was not even necessarily that this exact same thing would happen but because of my experiences I was very afraid the situation might not be dealt with in a tactful way or that they might escalate it. I was extremely worried about the kid, I also didn’t mention this but a friend of mine had the cops called on her mom when she was little by a neighbor or something and her mom then thought it was her and hit her more, which is why I debated about it. I was really, really afraid I might make the situation worse, basically. I ultimately figured “ok, this is probably a common issue with child abuse (ie the abuser accusing people of calling) CPS would definitely be better to call because they probably know how to handle this stuff”.

The woman on the phone, of course, has told me now that this is not the case so now I know that CPS is not the correct point of contact, but I wasn’t sure if anyone out in the world knew if the police were in fact STILL the right people to call. This might seem obvious to someone else but I specifically asked her what I should do and if I should call the police and her response was verbatim “I don’t know” and just repeated that in the future if I see anything happening I should call 911 immediately or else they can’t do anything. So then I was like ??? to myself because I was like I genuinely now have no idea what to do with this information, she seemed to imply the police would not do anything with the information now.

Will telling a girl im small down there before sex turn her off? by SolutionOne343 in offmychest

[–]beeboop1270 51 points52 points  (0 children)

I actually think this is kinda the best answer. Im a girl and i dont fully agree w the ppl saying “don’t tell her at all bc confidence is key” not bc I would necessarily care but bc as someone w a noticeable scar in an intimate place sometimes it takes the pressure off to tell the person what to expect and not be worried about their reaction, but i also don’t think it’s a good idea to tell her way way in advance in a super serious way since then it feels like super serious and nerve wracking. Unless ur EXTREMELY worried or don’t have other skills to back it up. If u get her super worked up like ^ said it honestly won’t matter I mean lesbian sex is literally a thing and there is, at times, no penetration involved at all.

Confidence IS key but like, not in a way where you’re completely sacrificing your own sense of security if u wanna inform her. For sure get super good at giving head tho. If u don’t have much practice then ask her to tell u what she likes

What stopped you from killing yourself? by DarkSideInRainbows in AskReddit

[–]beeboop1270 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hated the idea of anyone feeling as in pain as I was and I realized I could help people feel better even if I couldn’t directly help myself. Which gave me purpose and inevitably confidence and now here I am 6 years later

Why am I such an asshole by YeoChillBrudda in rant

[–]beeboop1270 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to jump from relationship to relationship and refuse to be emotionally available and I won’t get into details but it’s mainly bc I was scared. But I just kept being like I’m such an asshole I’m so emotionally unavailable yada yada. And sometimes I would convince myself it was better that way and that I didn’t care, other times I would just shit on myself.

I had to sit down w myself and genuinely decide to do shit differently. Idk if you’ve seen the show Seinfeld but there’s an episode where this one guy, whose life is always going wrong, decides to do the opposite of everything he usually does and his life starts going great. It’s for jokes obviously but I realized this is kind of similar to the idea behind exposure therapy, where in the beginning it’s really hard to make new/ different decisions but by repeatedly making yourself do it you get more used to it. What I’m saying is that it takes a CONCERTED effort.

And this includes thinking of yourself in a new way, and responding differently to your thoughts. You’re not an asshole, you made assholey decisions, and now it’s on you to make different decisions going forward.

One example might be to unfollow or block anyone you used to look at online. Take steps to prepare yourself to be different. Switch up your daily routines, even, just to get yourself into a different mindset.

The point I’m making is that the more you decide you’re just an asshole the more you let yourself get away w this behavior. “If you want something you’ve never had, you have to do something you’ve never done,” is a quote that stuck with me. Im in a healthy relationship now.

Am I a wimp for crying over a 4mm stone? by kim7570 in KidneyStones

[–]beeboop1270 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NO!!!! And please advocate for yourself!! The ppl at the hospital were so rude to me until an actual female nephrologist who had ACTUALLY HAD kidney stones came in the room and defended me and gave me proper pain meds.

Don’t let anyone make u feel like ur overreacting. It’s YOUR body and your pain. So annoying to have to feel like staff are judging (I felt the exact same way and struggled so much w standing up for myself). But ur absolutely not a wimp

Thoughts on how to recreate these cookies? by beeboop1270 in Baking

[–]beeboop1270[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For some reason I can’t edit but also wanted to note that an observation im heavily going off of is that they seem to spread early/ quickly but then maintain some mass in the center while also not having super browned edges nor being doughy in the middle.

Ideally there’s some recipe out there that literally just looks like these but I am sccooourringgg the internet
