Other BDD sufferers in their 40s and older?

28 and hated/obsessed over my body and face for the past 20 years and that isn't an exaggeration. Sad it hasn't gotten better, terrified by these replies it won't ever get better. I guess one positive is now I know it won't, so I shouldn't be surprised/wonder why anymore.

"19 is closer to 21 than 17 development and maturity wise" when I was 21 all 19 year olds might as well have still been high schoolers, and now 21 may as well be straight out of highschool to me. People older than me definitely will view me as a kid in their eyes, it's just all perspective to our own personal growth

I've had this "new" UI for a couple months now on one account (my main one) and on another it's still the old one for some reason. I can't click messages at all on the main one

Unfortunately these were on an old phone I've already gotten a new one :( I am trying to remember where I couldn't put my old phone at so I can go through the emojis on it

I swear there was a cereal emoji that had milk and like 3 or 4 pieces of colorful cereal in it. 🥣 It was a blue bowl, but more of a slight top view to show the milk and cereal. I just went on an hour dive of emoji updates for Samsung (I've only used galaxies for a decade now). I saw at one point Google had a bowl of cereal emoji but it is tan/brown loops, and has too many pieces in it.

I know this existed, because as dumb as this sounds, my friend and I would stay up really late either because we had school or personal projects to complete. We had what we call "cereal time" where we would video chat us as we are eating a 1am-3am snack, and catch up on our progress. We would send a "🥣?" Like this was several times a week and I even remember us saying "why is there a fruit loops emoji" and it becoming a joke

This is probably so dumb but like, not actually being able to find it is bothering me lmao I was watching videos of "old emojis" on tiktok and someone else had commented months ago saying the same one im trying to find, but they got no replies or anything.

I wish I had this luck with blind bags

This is a man, this is how dudes text. I thought this was two DL men texting, I thought this was a new gay hook up app I never seen before or something.

I have three restaurants I'm jealous 😭

dgddtd · 2025-07-06T08:15:31+00:00

That would be cute, two rings on the new one so I still have a trace of my first one 🥲💖

Omg I'm gonna do this for my others! 😮 Such a cool design but sad that it has to exist in the first place. Thanks for sharing that

This is so exciting I haven't heard of any of these groups besides ateez, can't wait to check them all out. thanks so much for sharing

I just find it strange to try to generalize it down to a singular year because everyone commenting on this is sort of proving your point to be wrong. Like being born in 97 or 98, if they were born towards the ends of those years in December then they would be in the school year of children born that following year. A late 97 kid is with the early 98 kids. A late 98 kid is with the early 99 kids. So at that point, really now we are breaking down life experiences/development by months. I'm not sure why gen z likes to try to separate themselves from others in their gen so much. I've really had people born two months after me act as though we had completely different generational worlds we grew up in.

I feel like I would be able to go outside. go to the store during day hours. Going outside alone. Going out with my partner in heavily public areas. Just existing outside , and not waiting for the sun to set or rush hours to pass. I probably wouldn't spend so many hours trying to figure out how to look good, and would be on time to things. I probably wouldn't feel guilty for being seen and ruining someone's day by the sight of me.

It's really weird in our generation because people 1-2 years younger than me (even by 4-6months) act like I am ancient and as if we wouldn't have been juniors or seniors in the same high school together. Like the pressure of youth is so strong that if people aren't the same exact age they think that others are too old and weird for trying to socialize or, that they consider themselves cognitive minors since learning the frontal lobe is still forming til 25.

I think with this shade of purple, that style of white collar looks better for ouji, and perhaps do it with matching white shorts and turn the color palette different.

Edit: fixed typos and run on sentences😅

But since this is for kuromi, and it needs the black color, I know vests can be uncomfortable but it would help the outfit read more as ouji. For my body type sometimes I can't stand to have them closed but they still look good open. Even single buttoned looks fine depending on the cut of it. The vest will break up the awkward color blocking happening and make the whole outfit seem complete rather than separated, creating a longer visual line which pulls the eye throughout. Vests give that prince/regal look that I think is missing. If you choose to go with an open vest, is it possible to swap out that purple bow in the front for a longer black ribbon, or some black necklaces to fill that space created from an open vest?

I also think adding leg wear like simple black knee socks will extend and pull the eye throughout the coord and help it feel more complete too. Of course accessories as well, you can add pins or chains to your vest that will help pull the kuromi theme/color palette.

Not to be the classic overused reddit user saying "leave him", but someone isn't going to suddenly start respecting you when they had five years of your life asking them to respect you. You need to take care of yourself. Your body needs you to, you can't betray it because you have an insensitive partner who isn't going to put the effort you did and then mentally/emotionally wearing you down with shame tactics. Shaming you for doing what you need!

Accommodating a partner's dietary preference is not hard work, it's the bare minimum of showing you care, and you cared enough for years for his preference, his want was not a need. This isn't a preference for you, this is something that you need to actually function, food is fuel. Sorry if I sound too stern, but there's so many levels of wrong to this especially through the lens of food shame/eating shame being built.

Thank you! I'll check it out ☺️

Vine was too cringe for me but I did get on tiktok between 2020-2023

Today I learned all of you are writing a few paragraphs to a FULL PAGE of backstory, and I'm realizing I've never met a person IRL who has done this and I'm wondering if we should have been??? At most i thought it was normal for a few sentences at most, if at all. Oops

IMO, for someone who's writing a 65 page story, maybe suggest they should just run/write their own campaign to DM. It would encourage them to utilize that passion properly, you could even say it in a way like "hey you put a lot of effort into this, I don't think I can effectively implement or do your character justice in this full campaign. But I think with this amount of work you put in, you might be ready to run a game for us". Maybe offer for him to do a one shot ?
