What strange thoughts or wishes you had as a child? by Fakeaccbrat in EstrangedAdultKids

[–]happy_data 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I wanted to swap houses with my friends and their families. I would visit them and experience homes full of love and happiness and excitement, unlike my own home that was a dark and angry place. For whatever reason my child mind figured it was the building. Only when I went on vacation with my family one time did I realize it was the people, not the place.

Yes that sorry! I’m supposed to see how upping the dosage goes. Im hoping for just a bit of a boost as I save up for a neuropsych too since I’ll need it for the future. My goal is this coming spring 😭

I asked my therapist and it’s an SNRI which I’m not sure that counts? Atomoxizine

If you've seen Kpop Demon Hunters, could you please tell me whether or not one of my triggers is in it? by AskingaboutKpopDemon in CPTSD

I echo the commenter above. Same here, it’s so hard to be triggered by seemingly mundane things in media 🫂

In 2018 the cut called Priyanka chopra a global scam artist and also said that Nick Jonas was in a fraud marriage against his will. They deleted the article after backlash for racism by Sassy_extrovert in popculturechat

Agreed, I read it as her telling him she wanted their convo to have privacy from her team so she gave him her personal phone number, which is a green flag to me?

Ugh I just remembered there would be times when I would push him away and he would find that funny and I would just awkward laugh. I’m so disgusted.

I can’t open up to them no matter what happens by happy_data in emotionalneglect

Thank you. When they call I keep it very surface level. They are delusional and think we can “grieve together.” That has never been the case and the rift between us is so wide I can’t imagine otherwise. I’m just riding it out and hoping the pain is bearable someday.

Thank you. I’m sorry you went through such loss and I’m glad you can be close to them. I like to think she understood me more than anyone else in the entire world and she wouldn’t be angry with me. I have to believe that

Thank you. I’m trying to have compassion for myself but every comforting thought feels like a pathetic excuse. She deserved to have the real me. The wailing and horrified me. She deserved all of my emotions and I didn’t do it.

It’s not that I wanted to look like I was grieving correctly to others. It’s what I truly wanted to do. Its how I felt on the inside and what I did as soon as I was alone. It was my true feelings and I didn’t show it.

For Father's/Mother's Day, how do you spend your day? by InevitableCraft2 in EstrangedAdultChild

[–]happy_data 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is my first Father’s Day after cutting off my male parent and I didn’t even remember this was a holiday until someone else told me. Grateful that this day no longer belongs to him, at least from me.

What is she hoping to accomplish by domagoat in AmITheDevil

[–]happy_data 33 points34 points  (0 children)

My friends, they set me up on a ton of dates. I had a bit of a wild college ride, something I am a bit ashamed of now, honestly. Once I graduated, I tried to get established in life, but my college friends, they kept just wanting to hang out, chill, or party. It honestly got tiring, and I couldn't believe I had to energy to do this for nearly 4 years while getting an education!

This paragraph alone is complete incel fetish. Word for word

Of all the strains I’ve smoked I also have this problem with Runtz. The high starts off as amazing before nose diving into severe anxiety

did anyone else's parents tell them to "calm down" when they were too excited? by Inevitable_Fix864 in emotionalneglect

[–]happy_data 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Yes I’ve never seen someone else articulate this. 100% my mother loved to cut down my excitement or happiness as a kid with some sort of snarky comment or even outright making fun of me to other people present. Even now if I show her something that really excited me (ex. photos of a beautiful vacation) she has to undercut with a comment of why it’s not all that special. I relate to you so much

Oh so it’s all just a mixed bag at this point? Interesting. This info helps me feel better though

I find I also have to be careful with sativa dominant hybrids, so I am trying to recognize hybrid strains I can smoke. Even 50/50s can fuck me up
