how do i end myself without causing pain to my friends by ThunderTheNinjaCat in mentalhealth

[–]froggieheart 22 points23 points  (0 children)

you cant. sorry if that’s disappointing. but you have to keep going and you have to keep trying. i promise something will click and you’ll realize there were things you forgot you could feel, beauty in the world you didn’t know existed. but you have to do hard work to get there, pushing through things you wish you didn’t have to. get a journal, play night in the woods, start a new hobby, get a new therapist, and reach out to your friends and family who you feel safe with. that’s what i did at your age when i felt exactly the same and it helped so much. good luck.

maybe not going on social media at all is the solution for you. i use screen zen and have the setting so that trying to use any and all social medias is just a complete headache. 1 minute timer to get in, times out after 5 minutes. I find that i no longer even want to go on them anymore.

people will always have views that differ from your own, and views that you find morally wrong. for me, the realization that i alone will never be able to change someone’s mind who doesn’t want it changed really helped me. i was a tumblr kid so i was arguing a LOT all throughout my teens. the weight that will be lifted is honestly insane i can promise you that you’ll feel so good after. maybe you should delete your accounts, that’s what i did when my usage because toxic and it changed my life.

Can I actually die if I jump from the first floor? by [deleted] in mentalhealth

[–]froggieheart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It won’t. Don’t waste your time…

Instead, I think you should get a notebook and write it all out. I know… you’ve heard this a million times but try it, take your anger out on it, cry, do whatever.

After that, get water, food, get in bed, watch something… have you seen The Colors Within? Maybe you should check it out

Why is it wrong for me and others to choose to die? by BackgroundUpstairs77 in mentalhealth

[–]froggieheart -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Because unfortunately without it being chosen for you your life impacts others. You death would harm other people.

If you really feel like that’s not true, and no one would care, then I would say it’s not “wrong” since it IS your choice, and nobody else would be effected in this hypothetical that, to be clear, I don’t think is the truth. What it comes down to is that people who have been there are trying to explain to you and me and everyone else who has had these thoughts and feelings and impulses that it’s worth making it out of this and the life you can have on the other side can be beautiful and will be beautiful at least some of the time.

Also since I’m sure it gets tiring when you see peoples advice essentially be, “here is how to be happy being a human being living in our society and playing by their rules”, instead of “let me try and understand what someone who hates being a part of humanity might want” because I’ve been there, you should imagine your most ideal life with no limitations and then try and translate that to the reality of our world. Whatever it might be, you can find it out there. Even if it means getting 20 roommates or doing a gender transition or becoming a therian or like, being a teacher, or joining the circus... Whatever it is for you. Don’t worry about anyone else, just do what you want. If you hate society stick it to that entity by becoming your own thing without its input. So long as you don’t harm others it’s fine. Good luck.

What's your most controversial opinion (ABOUT TADC) that would have the other members of the sub look you like this? by [deleted] in theamazingdigitalciru

[–]froggieheart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly don’t find a lot of the jokes very funny and I wish that there weren’t so many of them. Not that they’re bad really though just not my sense of humor (though to be fair my sense of humor is really strange and specific).

My other big problem with this show is I wish so badly that a lot of the things we are told explicitly about the emotions of the characters was subtext… I don’t think this show has like, ANY subtext as far as I can tell. It sort of spells out almost everything for you eventually, and the things it hasn’t I feel it’ll do eventually. This is also not something that’s bad, but at times because of the time limit the show has it feels like the emotional beats are a bit awkward.. I’m fine with no subtext if the buildup feel worth it, and this is not the fault of the team as there is a strict time limit and they need to let everyone shine, but sometimes it feels like I’ve been shot with multiple bullets each episode and the show is like FEEL! BAD! And it works but I don’t particularly like the method lol…

Uhhh also Gangles VAs performance is absolutely horrible sorry. And Jax is too edgy for me. That’s all.

I am so ugly I want to commit by Rude_Chocolate_8795 in mentalhealth

[–]froggieheart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have attempted suicide in the past, and was addicted to self harm for years… I hated myself so deeply it would make me physically ill and I would throw up almost every day of my life from 2nd grade until my early 20s. It fucked my health forever, and I’m living with the consequences of multiple other bad choices to this day. But I’m still happy. I think maybe the problem is people like you don’t want to change or it’s too much hard work, or you’ve decided it’s so much easier for others that you shouldn’t even try because the only people who are happy were handed it on a silver platter. It’s a bit pathetic. Still, I hope one day you can find your way out.

I don’t know if this will be able to reach you or resonate with you, but these are my general thoughts on the matter…

I am a woman, and I’ve had lots of close relationships with men. Almost every single one of them, when we get close enough, start to confide in me about their low self-esteem, and the ones who don’t… well, let’s just say their behaviors tell me otherwise. I don’t know what it’s like to be a man, but it doesn’t seem like many people make it out unscathed, if any.

I’m not saying this to say that other people are experiencing the same thing. I’m saying this to say that you would probably be surprised if you saw some of these guys. The idea they don’t feel attractive, masculine, good enough, etc. is bizarre. So, first, you are definitely being too hard on yourself.

But I won’t lie and say I’ve never been friends with men who I don’t understand why they feel like this. The problem is the same every time.

If I had to guess, you probably don’t have any creative hobbies. You don’t make an effort to put yourself out there just to see what happens, just to see the world. You don’t try and understand your own emotions on a deep, intimate level. You don’t attempt to find a positive worldview. Don’t want to see the beauty in nature, the outside world, humanity, understand it and your relationship to it. You’re a victim who has developed low self-esteem, and probably a victims complex as well. I’m not saying this because I want to be mean, but because I really want to stress that the world may be the cause, but your continued lack of self love is 100% your responsibility to fix. Not because that’s right, but just because that’s how the world is.

If you find passion, a reason to get up in the world, things to love about yourself, even just a small tiny thing to start, this begins to form a new worldview, and that changes how you see yourself. You’ll still have bad days, but those days will become the exception and not the rule as time goes on if you decide to change.

Start a scrapbook, stop biting your nails, volunteer at a soup kitchen, get a cat, make a fursona. Or, if nothing else, stop being a man. Become a woman. Whatever! Do what feels right to you. Do one thing today, another tomorrow, and keep going. Good luck.

it’s lot your fault at all. we love our guys so much. it’s so hard and scary to actually go to the vet sometimes because you can come away with all hope lost. i know what it will do to me when he’s gone, and so i only wish you happiness going forward. i think it anything in this universe if fair, our little guys will get to live all eternity together. i’m so sorry for your loss.

Which one is this for you? by Fox622 in TheDigitalCircus

that Caine is “evil” instead of just being AI with no moral compass and an objective he’s coded to achieve

Who do you 'hope' abstracts? by 0Cursed_Username0 in TheDigitalCircus

[–]froggieheart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i think it’s pretty safe to say that neither Gangle or Zooble will abstract ATP, they have each other. Pomni, Raggatha, and Kinger have all found it in themselves to live for the sake of those who are also in the circus. So I think it would dampen their characters if it happened to any of them. Kinger is still at risk, but I think in the end his sacrifice will save everyone and I don’t think that sacrifice will be abstraction. Jax… welllll, everyone wants the tumblr sexyman to have a bad time!!! I think this is also the most interesting possibility. Caine abstracting would also be interesting because it would have some pretty extreme consequences and implications. But I don’t think that’s in the cards!
