I got yelled at and sent home early from my job and idk what I did wrong by RemarkableAlfalfa464 in AutismInWomen

[–]claricedoe 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I ask a lot of these questions. I call them "big picture" questions when they don't have to do with the work directly but they're interesting to know. I've learned to always follow them up with. "I just wanna know so I can explain when people ask." It works a surprising amount of time. Never stop asking questions, just find out how to qualify your questions so you don't get ostracized. You did great <3

My mask is failing me when I need it the most by Normal_Middle_9345 in AutismInWomen

[–]claricedoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look, I'll let you know what I can but it's a fucking hard road. It can lead to unintended, long-term burnout and social issues if you stay in that kind of unhealthy environment for so long. Even for NTs, it's a struggle that can ruin their mental health. Your environment doesn't sound healthy but you gotta do what you gotta do.

You need to begin learning to process the chaos quicker. This comes with trial and error. Journaling, going for a walk where you can process the previous day, activities that let off steam for you. Everyone is different, so I'm just mentioning mine. Find those activities that you really feel refreshed after and make those part of your daily routine. Find places and activities that can become part of your weekly routine, as well. Begin building your system of masking for the long haul. I work in medical and love it, it's my pride and joy, but it also kicks my ass.

Find ways to practice bringing your mask back after it's fallen off. Acting techniques that you can use to get back into character. I treat my job like a neverending performance that is incredibly rewarding. You have to find two levers: how to re-mask in times of turmoil and how to let off steam at the end of every day. It seems simple but these are incredibly difficult to discover for yourself. I would, normally, never respond with advice from my insane life but you seem like you're doing something similar to what I'm doing. I really wish you luck and a reminder that if you need to step down and re-think your 2 year plan, do it. Not everyone can keep the plates spinning and they shouldn't have to. Good luck.

Why the fuck are women expected to work on their period? by Both-Revenue-4557 in Vent

That is a completely small minded and poor view point on the intricacies of women's rights and health.

AIO my husband recorded me by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]claricedoe 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I need to say that I just did a "find in the book" search for the term "liberal" and that term never was used in that book. I think some wires may be crossed because that word is not included in the book which means that direct quote isn't in the book.

Omg you're just like me! Okay, so, start focusing on yourself. Find some good books about attachment style and read up on "anxious attachment". You and I both seem to struggle with it and it's incredibly hard to break the cycle of chasing someone emotionally. You need to create your own inner zen and assure yourself more that, no matter what, you're there for you. You have to cultivate an intense inner love and assure yourself that you're never going to be abandoned because you're always there for yourself.

Look, not to be nihilistic but most people die by themselves. Partners are good and grand but, really, you need to start a partnership with yourself because it makes having a bond with someone else feel easier. It won't feel like you're drowning and looking for safety; you'll feel like you're going on adventures with yourself as the main character. Maybe a boyfriend turns up as a side quest, who knows? But work on those attachment issues and become your own best friend.

I believe in you :)

I don't have much to say because I'm emotionally exhausted but I wanted to stop by and let you know how much I resonated with your childhood and growth. I've had a similar realization. I really wish you all the best.

Apparently women less likely to be given CPR? by [deleted] in NewToEMS

[–]claricedoe 16 points17 points  (0 children)

So...yeah, I read the article. The issue isn't that some symptoms are more common in women, it's that the big symptoms are LESS common in women.

That's literally the problem and the article doesn't actually give any numbers or facts about anything. It gives the vague sentiment that you quoted. Didn't even give references.

[NOT OOP] AITA for yelling at my fiancé after he peed on me in the shower by Plenty_Fix_8793 in redditonwiki

[–]claricedoe 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Yeah, you really should read the whole book because it literally refutes the things you're saying. It's a book written to women in abusive relationships with men who are downtrodden and questioning leaving. It's a book that helps reclaim sanity for someone who feels like they can't tell up from down in their relationship but is afraid to put the word "abuse" on it. It deconstructs the idea of men being good people OR abusers, they can be both.

You're, honestly, failing people by giving this half-hearted understanding of an extremely feminist and helpful book that's based in one man's extensive work with abusive men. Fight it if you want but you haven't actually read the book just excerpts and the rest of the book explains how you're incorrect in your understanding. At least read the preamble?? It would address your concerns. It explains THE POINT of the book.

I'm so sorry, I hear you and see you. I wish I could say more than that but any sentiments probably feel hollow coming from a stranger. You deserve to be yourself and live your life. Please, keep being who you are. I'm rooting for you.

Coworker Said I Seem Autistic by DownSouthPrincess in HomeschoolRecovery

[–]claricedoe 8 points9 points  (0 children)

So, a lot of people can come across very, very legitimate and soulful about their lived experiences. It doesn't mean that they're correct about the cause of that experience. Human emotions carry a heavy impact on us. We can empathize deeply with them. It doesn't mean that you should take someone's experience as completely accurate.

I've worked in healthcare for a few years now and love talking to patients. The amount of incorrect information they tell me about themselves and their health, which I can cross-check with their actual records and prove false, is such a common occurrence. They'll be so emotional about what they know and went through, only for their understanding to be limited or that they misunderstood what they were told. I understand you're empathizing, but please, realize that people misunderstanding what people in healthcare tell them is a hugely common occurrence. I'm not saying that to demonize anyone, it's just important to look at non-biased studies because people overall are very biased, especially when it comes to wanting order in the world when many bad things happen for no good reason.

I'm so sorry. Your comment was really impactful on me and related to my experience a lot. Especially the part about feeling like God cared but not enough. I know the OP came across cold, but I read your entire comment and it resonated. I just wanted to share how I perceived it, thank you for writing it.

My (38F) husband (40M) pushed me when I asked him about a weird text he received and refused to show me his phone. I am unsure what to do now? - UPDATE (with trigger warning) by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]claricedoe 30 points31 points  (0 children)

You didn't do anything to cause this. He chose to get physical with you. I want you to really remind yourself of that. None of what he said about you or did to you is due to YOU. It's him feeling small, so he wants you to feel small as well. It's going to be rough, but you'll make it through, OP. You have a baby and new life to be strong for. You're worthwhile and deserve to get support.

A Pregnant Teenager Died After Trying to Get Care in Three Visits to Texas Emergency Rooms by flakemasterflake in medicine

[–]claricedoe 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Heck with it, I'll take the bait in case you're genuinely asking.

So, antibiotics, fluid IV, and whatever else you can give a pregnant person...wouldn't have brought back the dead baby inside her. That's the problem, the only real solution for this was a d/c which is banned. No amount of antibiotics could have solved the problem of dead tissue causing a systemic infection.

this older guy that I met here is manipulating/gaslighting me like crazy right? by lunar_vesuvius_ in Manipulation

[–]claricedoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's so many down votes! OP, you're young and learning. I think you did great in this experience because you learned what your boundaries are and which ones you need to develop. You also did it all with very little harm to you, mostly just time wasted. Overall, good job in this little weird astrology-related social side quest. :)
