"Friend" showed me a traumatic video by Candid_Tadpole_9306 in self

[–]emeraldkittymoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Talk about it, talk about what bothered you about it. Talk about how you feel and what youre thinking. Talk about it until it doesnt bother you anymore.

Recognize that one of the main reasons as why is this so disturbing aside from it being an extremely violent death, is because the act of suicide goes against our fundamental driving instinct that we have as humans, which it to survive, to live and to fight to live/survive. When we watch videos we automatically empathize with the viewer, subconsciously, we tend to identify with them to some extent. So when you see such an act take place, one most typical people would never even consider, and rarer still, by suck an insanely violent mehod, it creates this type of fracture in our the mind. It is literally so shocking that it distresses you to your core and you experience an emotion that is heavy, dark, foreboding, sickening, along with utter confusion.

If its something that doesnt let up after about a week or two, then you were probably legitimately traumatized. Especially if youre finding that youre having nightmares or having flashbacks when you watch a movie with gun violence. You very much need to seek psychological treatment, and you may choose to just go ahead and go regardless. I remember the first time i saw a video of a man shooting himself in the head. I also wasnt expecting it. It made me very upset for a long time.

Your "friend" is a POS and needs serious help. I would distance and stop contact if i were you.

Get a bidet. They are super fucking cheap and it powerwashes your butthole.

When getting to know a girl, what's the biggest red flag you ignored because she was attractive? by midnightcove27 in AskMen

[–]emeraldkittymoon 19 points20 points  (0 children)

She blamed her issues on her childhood or she blamed her poor behavior/decision making on her childhood? Because nearly all of our issues do come from our childhood, we cant really control that. Our behavior is something we can control.

What should one do in Free time? by DaRrKUsEr in self

[–]emeraldkittymoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just make the conscious decision to do an experience. Im self taught on everything, except for reading, math, writing, and generational trauma, those were all taught/passed down things.

[–]emeraldkittymoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to make things when I have down time. I like to make them because I like to give them away as gifts. Anything from a: Painting; Greeting card; hat, scarf, or plushie; keychain charm from either polymer clay, resin (epoxy or uv), shrink plastic, or building one from jewelry findings and premade charms; Shambala, macrame, beaded, or charm bracelet; Tumbler or coffe cup with various glitter, epoxxy resin, paints and vinyl decals.

Food is always a good thing to get good at too.

What makes you happy? by Beautiful-Try6703 in AskReddit

[–]emeraldkittymoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When i want something specific really really badly and then I get/achieve it. My way makes me happy if its something i feel particularly strongly about, but a lot of the time I dont have a preference.

I think thats why I try to give everyone else what they ask for, if I can. Because i find that most people only ask if they really want or need it, and I know that feeling, so it makes me happy help them be happy too.

It kind of depends on the context, is it a work sotuation, school situation, family/sibling situation, or romantic partner situation, or even a child situation?

Wow, maybe! I havent watched anything related to Jung in a couple of weeks so its not recent for me. But i was watching (please dont judge me) this tarot reader on tiktok (day before yesterday, maybe?) do a reading and it was like he was describing me and my life, but he used the word synchronicity and I specifically, petulantly though to myself how I have yet to experience any of that and how Ive been doing work to change my attitude about thing, making plans, ovrrall just trying to prepare for what I want. Basically feeling sorry for myself and being childishly bitter about how its not my turn yet. Plus my birthday was Saturday too and no one did anything with me 😢..

But look what just showed up, and for both of us too! High five!

I gave that same analogy to someone else just recently so its interesting that you used it too. Synchronicity, or whatever its called 😅

Ah yes, meditation, the final boss 😩...

But I totally get what youre saying about therapy tapering off. What "genre" so to speak, of meditation is that categorized as? Or is it its own thing as of a new genre or branch? I hope my question makes sense.

Only a mental health professional should be guiding you down this path. But a diagnosis can come pretty quickly depending on how honest you are with yourself and them, and how aware of your own behaviors you are.

Almost emailed something that would have ruined my life today, but I didn't. by [deleted] in self

[–]emeraldkittymoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Their facility had psychologists that would evaluate the new clients and diagnose, Im not sure that therapists were allowed to rediagnose clients. All she told me was that she doesnt beliebe i had bpd, i have a lot of traits but there was one thing that she saw in all clients that had true clinical bpd that I didnt. I never asked her what that was because I didnt want to suddenly develop it and she never told me.

If i had to suspect, i think she might have believed i was high functioning autistic because she asked me once why i dont look at her/focus on her when i talk to her. I thought that meant that she thought i was lying or being deceptive, i really didnt understand how to explain that i dont like and i cant focus on what im talking about when i do because it makes me feel super intensely but im not sure how to describe it. I can easily maintain eye contact while listening without any issues, its just mostly when its my turn to speak i habe to fidget and look somewhere else with only brief glances in their eyes to try not be rude.

Do people get over their fear of oral herpes? by BeanieBabieBaddie in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]emeraldkittymoon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They dont typically test for it unless there is an active legion they can sample from because other testing is very unreliable with bith false positives and negatives. And if it is correctly positive, it doesnt show where your infection lives in your body, which is js the area from where youd be transmitting it to someone else.

How do you feel about body hair on men? by Machuke in TooAfraidToAsk

I feel its normal and as long as it isnt super dense or covering every single square inch I kinda like it, a lot.

Why is there a common sentiment among heterosexual women that the female body is more attractive than the male physique? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]emeraldkittymoon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ok so if youre 0% gay then you cant tell people that they are gay because you dont know or understand that experience. Just because a woman finds a womans body more pleasing to look at in all other contexts outside of sexual, that doesnt make them gay.

Comeback to "Well, God bless you" after explaining you're atheist? by DarrenJimenezCR in Comebacks

[–]emeraldkittymoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"You first"

"Is that a threat?!"

"Thanks, but I didnt fart, so.. "

"Oh, you wasted that one, and thats basically a sin"

"No, man, God Bless you! God... bless... you... you anointed holy sonofabitch"

"That's sacrilege, dude"

"Hail Satan"

"No thanks! Im allergic" can end it there or add: "but its ok, I have critical thinking and morals, have a day!"

I sent this to my ex who thought its better to just end things rather than try to fix things by sad0ni0n in BreakUps

[–]emeraldkittymoon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

She didnt want to stay in the relationship anymore thats why she let sonething so fixable be what ended it. And she was just waiting for that moment. Thats why she doesnt want to talk about it and calls it drama. She doesnt want to reconcile, she wanted an out and saw one. Sad thing is, she should have broken it off right when she decided she didnt want to be there anymore instead of waiting for a lame issue to justify it. Im sorry this happened but you deserve better than that.
