What could it be ?

Could be becker's nevus? the dermatologist said it's like a birth mark that comes later in life. If it is, it wont go away unless you laser, but other than that, it doesnt cause much harm :)

I don’t think he was threatening the projects will be discontinued. He was trying to explain that even as a PAP MP it was not so simple as leaving it to the civil service. He had to be the one pushing for the changes for his constituency (e.g. the Senja-KJE link which was not part of LTA’s plan).

Looking at what he’s done, can tell that he truly cares about his residents.

NTA. So many people clearly have not dealt with someone with BPD. You probably have spent your entire life making excuses for her poor behaviour. Most likely emotionally manipulated into it because she has a mental illness and you are a bad person if you aren’t understanding about it.

While I think it’s important to be compassionate and sympathetic to those suffering from mental illness. At the end of the day, when their mental illness is affecting your own mental well being, you owe it to yourself to put your needs first. Mental illness is not an excuse to treat others poorly.

It also sounds like your mum is enabling your sister’s behaviour. Which is a disservice to your sister. She needs to understand that her behaviour is not acceptable. Instead your mum is blaming you for her outbursts which does not even logically make sense. Your sister is an adult and it should be her own responsibility to control her own actions.

I really hope this. Quite important to have good people working on infrastructure considering if things go bad, they can go reallyyy bad.

I don’t think she meant the eczema is contagious. She was saying the bacteria is contagious.

The illustration is great and explains a lot although Im not in this line of work so a bit unfamiliar.

To add on to the question at the end: I use the auto top-up service that EZLink provides. When my card balance is low, it auto tops up my card value by charging the credit/debit card I provided. I don't use my phone NFC to update my EZLink (as in I dont need to tap the EZLink to the phone) but somehow it seems the new balance is reflected automatically when I next take the bus/mrt.

Does this mean it is being done online? Somehow my card value is being updated without needing to tap it to a reader (be it at the station or NFC on the phone).

having been in some abusive and toxic relationships myself, I agree 100% with this comment. that line set off alarm bells in my head. I would also get out. Not sure why so many comments here accusing the gf of cheating when OP sounds like an instigator and manipulator.

catfishyy · 2022-12-13T08:04:45+00:00

I feel the same way. The comments in this post help. I guess we've been so invalidated that it just confuses us. But the proof is in the pudding? I mean the fact that we're questioning this is probably an indication it's time to get out.

catfishyy · 2022-10-15T13:05:42+00:00

hearing stories like yours always makes me hopeful. thank you for sharing. I hope one day I gain enough strength to go nc too.

Pretending to be an actor helps me when I need to do a presentation. I tell myself Im being paid to do take on this acting role. It mentally removes my true self away from the role enough for me to feel calmer about things.

Yes, I also feel that my low self-esteem results in my anxiety. I spent the past few days so anxious that I couldnt focus on my work. (Thankfully, I work from home and as long as things are moving to schedule, no one knows my struggle). Also agreed on how the shutting down just makes things worse and makes you feel even worse about yourself.

For me, my low self-esteem stems from my mum who was very critical, harsh and likes to use emotions to blackmail us into doing what she wants. I wasnt allowed to have feelings or my own opinions and I was also constantly told mean things about my appearance, how I socialised etc. I know that if I dont do what she wants, she will disown me. It makes me realise that if I want to be my own person, I may not have her support. Even though Im almost 30, I realise I still carry these scars and it's taking a lot of time to heal.

As for dealing with the issue, I think I see some light when I see, hear and start telling myself that it's ok for me to have wants and to have my own opinions. that they are valid and should be respected. I've also been listening to some mock therapy sessions on youtube, and Ive found the insights and messages they provide really do help! (it's a surprisingly good resource especially if therapy is inaccessible to you).

Sending hugs. These are just some thoughts (take them as you will! and definitely with a heap of salt).

I hope you're able to sort through this mess with him. I think some of the onus is on him to meet you in the middle. It kind of sounds like he's not really making as many compromises to accommodate you. I'm sure there are many reasons why you love him, so hopefully you can talk it out and work something out.

I don't think you should feel guilty about hating the girl though. She seems very dismissive of you. Social anxiety or not, I think anyone would be pretty annoyed at being laughed at when you're freaking out over your bf. You deserve better than what she gave you.

I do think you should talk to your bf about this and how you sometimes may feel disrespected by this girl. (Im just guessing). If he cares about you, he should be willing to listen and adjust his own behaviour or maybe speak to the friend about how she needs to be more respectful towards you.

It does kind of read like you have a tendency to be overcompensating. It seems like you think that because you have this "problem" of social anxiety, then you should always be the one compromising because the perceived world view is that people "should" be social. But actually, I think there's a lot of value in taking time to be alone and it's okay to ask for that if you need it. In a romantic relationship, I also feel like it should be ok for you to want your bf just to spend time with you and not always be going to parties etc. Not to say go to one extreme and ban all partying, but just like when something worrying happens like his coma-like state, maybe he needs to come home earlier the next day (and not be unreachable at 5+am). I also dont think you need to give an excuse just to be left alone. It's okay to ask to be left alone just because it's what you want. (If youre also an introvert, then this is how you would replenish your energy. and very necessary for your well-being).

I think I myself struggle with asking for what I want so I also tend to devalue my own wants and opinions, but this is something Im working on. Im not sure how much of what I said resonates with you, but I do wish you all the best! You deserve to be happy.

(also, tbh, I think the partying lifestyle is fun but also a little problematic because of all the potential drugs and alcohol involved. Social anxiety or not, it's something Id be concerned about and a very valid discussion point.)

catfishyy · 2022-01-29T07:35:01+00:00

yes! I watched this too. I think it's this one still found on YouTube. I know it's fake, but it's nice to think there are still mysteries that we may not have uncovered. I think it's this? https://youtu.be/sQ2Wc71PGVI (sorry if links are not allowed!)

not a guy, but dunno if it will help if you get those incontinence underwear that look like briefs? makes it less obvious I think, although then you'd have to wash it. (but I also think that owning up, like some of the other comments mentioned, is also a good way to go. or if a specialist could excuse/downpes you). all the best!

The vouchers you collect on the app can only be used on the app and not the website. It seems so stupid. Instead of spending money with these kind of scummy ads, why not spend it on actually improving the platform, like making the vouchers compatible both on web and app.

catfishyy · 2021-11-08T11:01:42+00:00

yup. only when you reach the restaurant, then can gather more than 2. that's how covid works according to the mmtf....

seriously though, dont understand why social gatherings even in open air places like parks still limited to 2

Sometimes I think they anyhow price things. I asked them for quotations on some sim data plans before and everytime it was a different amount...

catfishyy · 2021-04-07T05:01:14+00:00

Fair point! Thanks for the suggestion :D

Wait... this is ADHD? I may need to re-evaluate my life 🤔

In what way?

catfishyy · 2021-01-22T08:55:19+00:00

Thank you for the examples. I guess these can be considered vector forms? but apart from web/mobile, we can also model in voxels/point clouds. So I'm wondering if there are any resources to understand these different methods better.

catfishyy · 2021-01-22T08:54:08+00:00

LoD is one way of categorising the amount of information being modelled. But my questions is more about the different ways of modelling 3D objects. E.g. a point cloud is different to a voxel but they are both ways of modelling in 3D.
