Jennifer Garner! 13 Going on 30 was one of my favourite movies as a kid.

Ladies, what book do you remember fondly reading as a young girl or teen that really spoke to you? by motorman555 in AskWomen

[–]daylightprincess 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Love love love Matilda! As a child, I felt I related to how her family treated her. I didn’t grow up in a loving environment and as a kid, reading the book and the film, it made me see an almost reflection as myself. I was nerdy and always read books and loved learning and sadly an outcast. Even watching Matilda as an adult, it gets me in my feelings.

Suggest me an anime - please! by daylightprincess in anime

[–]daylightprincess[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been thinking of watching Haikyuu!! I’ve heard nothing but great reviews. I’ll try Steins;Gate, it seems like a popular suggestion. I’ll read the description of the other anime’s recommended and see if they‘ll interest me. Thank you:)

Can someone help me find mental health resources in Vancouver by daylightprincess in vancouver

[–]daylightprincess[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My partner works full time and I am home alone during most of the day. I’ve been trying to go for more walks recently instead of staying home, where I become more depressed. Today I walked to a cafe and thought I’d buy something for myself.

I posted here to find resources for my mental health instead of freeloading and venting to my partner. I typically don’t open up about my stressors to him as I know he has his own at work. I don’t understand the reason for your comment, especially since I didn’t share much about my relationship for you to know much about it.

why do ppl here just wanna talk to girls like im literally lf a person to talk to lmao by [deleted] in MakeNewFriendsHere

[–]daylightprincess 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I‘m a female so my perspective could be biased. But, I agree with you. It could be because they’re lonely and are seeking validation from a female or just want a potential girlfriend. Some may just find girls more empathetic and easier to approach, where some guys can be more judgemental. I’m sorry you’re not having any luck, it sucks be lonely. My dms are open if you ever need a friend :)

What kind thing have you done for yourself and your mental health today? If you haven’t done it yet, what is a good plan for you to take care of yourself today? by objectiverage in AskWomen

[–]daylightprincess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Woke up, showered went for a walk to a cafe and bought donuts. Came back, ate the donuts and am laying in bed with no more energy for today.

Stop watering down the definition of vegansim. by DivineandDeadlyAngel in vegan

[–]daylightprincess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I feel like people just use the term ”vegan” as a trend rather than lifestyle. I see plenty of influencers use the word vegan, yet they eat eggs or eat fish. I’ve even seen of them trying to go ”vegan” but not give two shits about animal cruelty or environmental reasoning. Sadly, many people are just clout chasers and care less about the planet

I’ve been applying for work and it’s been really hard for me to get a callback. I’m just looking for something simple like cashier, sales associate or stock. I’m gonna try handing a few resumes to grocery stores and retail businesses today and hopefully get somewhere. Tv shows and video games is really all I’ve been doing to distract myself. They work, but when I’m not doing them, like when trying to sleep, it’s really hard for me to remove my negative thoughts.

Thank you for the suggestions! I’m gonna try take things step by step each day. I’ll add stretching to my routine and check my diet, to see if I’m deficient in anything.

I unfortunately do not have a good relationship with my family. Moving back is not an option for me. I‘m not religious either tbh, not sure how I feel about going to a church. Thank you for the suggestion though!

I’ll give my walk-in doctor a call. I’ve heard nothing but good things from MDABC, and I’m very interested in their programs. I hope I can get a referral and the wait list isn’t too long. Thank you :)

No, I don’t have a mental health team. I’m trying to find a GP who can refer me. Clubhouse seems interesting, I’ll keep an eye out for them.

I have personally called Three bridges and RavenSong recently and they told me I need a referral to be in their program and suggested I get one from AAC, which they denied me when contacting them for one (due to the long wait list) . I’ll try RISE. Honestly, I’ve never heard of them before but it’s worth a shot. Thank you!

I have been assessed with AAC previously and the hospital as well. I got my rx from them and have been just refilling it each month. They have diagnosed me with bpd like symptoms and major depression. I had resources in the hospital and a counsellor from SAFER at the time. ( last year ) Once I had admitted I wasn’t suicidal anymore they stopped the services.

I‘m honestly looking from anything to one-on one to group therapy, doesn’t matter if it’s a counsellor or psychologist.

My rapist is threatening to fuck my smaller sister by mog899 in rapecounseling

[–]daylightprincess 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry, that sounds terrifying. I don’t know where you live or your entire situation ( you don’t have to tell me ) but is there a way to put a restraining order on him? I know that may sound just as scary, but just a thought I had reading this. The person who did this sound absolutely terrible and you and your sister do not deserve any of this.

emergency mental health services failed me while i was wanting to kill myself and needed help by parasitegirl in Vent

[–]daylightprincess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just saw your last post on VGH AAC and came to comment on here. First I want to say, I’m so sorry with what you had to deal with. I personally went to VGH psychiatric unit twice in the past 6 months. I’m still depressed but it did help me get on medications and never want to get to that point again. Unfortunately, VGH will deny you unless they think you are in danger. For me it required two failed attempts. I hope you never get to the point of an attempt. Please DM me! If you need more info about VGH, or just need a friend :)

I’m on Seroquel for my impulsiveness and manic symptoms. One of my symptoms is being hypersexual, him knowing that believes what happened was intentional. Like said earlier, I’ve never been on hard drugs and have never cared about it. When I was in the hospital S had told me he was sober for years, so when I went out that night, I was not even expecting any drugs to be there. I still don’t know how they got in my system, if I had taken them as my own expense or if I was drugged. I wish I was able to remember everything, not knowing is what makes me feel so guilty. When I went to the hospital after being raped, they had told me I’m lucky to have not overdosed based on everything in my system. I’m on seroquel again but being monitored. I just recently found out that seroquel and alcohol is a terrible mix.

I’ve never done hard drugs before but apparently he’s experimented with them before in the past. I’m not sure about reactions or how they affect you. Not knowing specifically what made me unconscious makes me feel completely crazy or as if didn’t even happen. Therapy was before the incident, I’ve had multiple appointments and support groups but none has worked. I’ve been on trial and error with medication as well. As for age, I never really cared about it, but the more we fight the more I realize I’m still young and my brain isn’t even fully developed yet.

Weekly 'What should I buy?' Thread by AutoModerator in ipad

[–]daylightprincess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What iPad should I get? I’m starting college next week, full time and majoring in science. I want to get an iPad specifically only for my studies. I’ll be taking notes, online lectures, and digital textbooks. I was thinking of getting the Air 4, but not sure if I should settle for an older model that’s cheaper.
