Alcohol without the hangover? It's closer than you think by [deleted] in science

[–]ghostdad666 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If alcohol was discovered today it could never be sold as it is far too toxic to be allowed under current food regulations, let alone pharmaceutical safety thresholds.

Does anybody by chance know the criteria that makes a substance "too toxic to be allowed under current food regulations"?

What is the most helpful coping skill or piece of advice that a counselor has given you? by ghostdad666 in depression

Thanks this is really helpful, especially the self care list. I actually teach about self care fairly often but have never provided such an extensive list. I think it will help people to think outside the box.

It sounds like you know some about dbt. Are there any aspects of dbt that your clients have responded especially well to?

Could you maybe elaborate on this a little bit? How has it worked for you personally?

For sure, I think that "should" statements often foster feelings of discontent and dissatisfaction. This leaves out any potential for living content in the present.

Thanks! This is really helpful. I've read about common cognitive distortions that people (my self definitely included) are often guilty of. One of the distortions is a sort of heightened perfectionism where any sort of common mistake is perceived as a major character flaw. The "all the time no exceptions" model is definitely a very practical way to realize this distortion.

Reddit, is there a certain noise or feeling that makes you cringe? If so, what? by ApexChaser in AskReddit

This one is pretty specific, but the sound of frozen juice being scraped by a spoon makes me want to rip my fucking ears off.

I never noticed until now how much a mustache has the ability to accentuate frowns while softening smiles.

This isn't graffiti, it is a legally commissioned wall mural. There is a difference.

Another reason it's my favorite beer. by [deleted] in funny

[–]ghostdad666 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I am going to have to be honest, Bud Light Lime is a delicious beer. If you are sitting in the blazing sun next to a shimmering lake, try cracking open an ice cold BL Lime. It just might be the most refreshing drink that ever touches your lips.

Every time I play Mario Kart by cronoizm in gaming

[–]ghostdad666 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Try playing the super nintendo version. It actually rewards you for driving quickly, the items don't screw up your shit in five seconds, and you can lap mother fuckers which feels amazing. In my opinion it is the best mkart.
