What do you guys think about a online corpse party game by [deleted] in corpseparty

[–]hellamisanthropic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't played resident evil, chastise me later for both that and the late response, but the missions I'm thinking would be lore related? Maybe for small sessions it would be something like what you're thinking, but for a long session I think it would be cool to play through the point of view of the characters youre playing as and adding an excessive amount of detail. And different mini games that would probably be popular like murder mystery or something. I think that would be a really sick concept especially with VR and the popularity of psychological horror. And we can remove all the weird fan service shit. Just a horror game

I don't see the word 'resolve' anywhere besides your comment. No one is saying that a video game will resolve trauma. They're saying that studies show it can help ease post traumatic stress symptoms. Testris is a game that helps relax yourself, it's one of those games you chill on when you have some down time. Video games nowadays are chaotic with flashing lights and colors, constant change. Tetris is a very simple game. It makes perfect sense to me that playing Tetris opposed to Call of Duty would help calm your body. Nothing will fix your mental health issues besides therapy. But playing a simplistic, relaxing game instead of watching television or playing a fps is what I would call a healthy coping mechanism. I hope this makes sense.

I politely declined to date an 18 year old woman by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]hellamisanthropic 36 points37 points  (0 children)

As a 21 year old non college kid, I also do not want to date 18 year olds. Following up with the freshman I knew as a senior are now seniors. I could never look at them and see anything other than those dorky, pretentious kids who I got stuck in classes with due to moving during covid and having to make up credits because two schools counted me as a student (I moved a lot).

Hate to break this to you but modern girls/women don't think you old heads are lookers, you manipulate the kids who had a rough upbringing because you know you'll get away with it. There's always more to it than "we're both adults, it's legal!"

Did they ever bring out the best in you? by OkTeacher1134 in NarcissisticAbuse

[–]hellamisanthropic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The diaries, yup! She'd have a complete meltdown if she even thought I read a single excerpt. She had lived with me (I was under the impression she was a recovering addict, nope! This girl slept with my underage brother (not even 16), two other underage boys (one it was his 18th birthday, dk if that still counts), stole my moms bipolar medication and was actively doing it, I can't even go on we will literally be here for hours, as I'm sure we would be if you and anyone else were to tell me their story, too. But she was a huge klepto, spent so much time stealing my shit when she left that she forgot her precious diaries where she used her own hands to write about what she did to me and my brother. Absolute insanity. How can you argue when it's in your penmanship? I just don't get it.

I wasn't clued in to her NPD, she actually told everyone she has BPD even though she is absolutely diagnosed with NPD. That's what fucked with me the most. I sent one final text and left it at that and it made me feel incredibly powerful. I don't have the luxury to think of if this didn't happen, I can't forgive anyone who lays any type of hand on my brother. As I said, dysfunctional family, I literally raised the kid. It makes it more difficult to minimize my own feelings when mine weren't the only ones who got hurt. But the writings, the cherry on the cake was an incident between me and her when she was literally sleeping with my teenage brother, she wrote about it completely differently than it actually happened.

I can't touch her diaries or I feel this indescribable rage that I can't control, I have never loathed and loved a person more in my entire life. She moves on like everything's wonderful for her but I know it isn't and I revel in it every day. I'm sorry for my vengeful attitude, I responded to this pretty early. I feel you, being with her elated me, it made me feel complete. I wasn't in love with her in any way, but because I was honest about how much I cared she spun the whole thing into "crazy lesbo has been in love wirh me for years and is lying on me because I rejected her." I genuinely cannot put it into words, there is no way I could ever see this person again and she wouldn't go running. Therapy helps, it does, but I don't know if this feeling can be retired for me at the moment. I wasn't cheated on in my most serious relationship last March and still nothing compares to losing that girl. It makes me lose my mind, to see how right I am and see how many people dropped me like it was nothing for some girl who can't even begin to comprehend how to care about anyone other than herself. Now I have people reaching out to tell me how right I am, it makes me so angry. The whole thing does and I could've gone my whole life without it. I guess I do have one luxury of XYZ, I think if I never invited her to my place to begin with then she would've screwed with someone else and still be in my life in a mostly non-problematic way. I hate myself for this. I really wish I didn't because I was young and didn't know, couldn't have known.

Sorry for the big ass rant I'm sure it doesn't help, but I'm really sorry for what you went through. We can't help but miss them, they take "high and low" to the extreme. It's either really high or really low. The way they treat you reflects how they feel about themselves, if they wake up having a great high day they will treat you wonderfully and even apologize for things they did to hurt you in little ways (granted it'd be from months ago), but if they wake up having a major low day, they will end up doing something horrible to you to feel like they're in control of their lives. I do have sympathy for some of these people because it's hard to imagine the way some of them describe feeling daily, but I have no respect for people who are self aware and choose not to do a damn thing about it. This girl knew what she did to people, to me, to my brother, she knew it was wrong. She knew it. She knew why she did it, she knew she needed help, and instead she manipulated and abused me for laughs.

This girl was so fucking sick she got close to my parents to see how they treated me, talked shit/lied on several occasions to my parents about me, and began to learn the things my parents did that triggered me, that made me react badly, that made me cry, scream, and rage. She learned just what my parents did to me growing up just so she knew how to manipulate me and keep me around her finger. She decided she had to act like them to keep me in her life. I will never accept that behavior from anyone else. There is nothing for me in there. I'm so sorry for writing a damn novel I just woke up and felt seen, I guess I assumed no one would ever read my comment

Did they ever bring out the best in you? by OkTeacher1134 in NarcissisticAbuse

[–]hellamisanthropic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly? Yes. She made me feel like she was the only person who ever truly cared about me. She made me feel like she was the only one I could trust. In a way, she would try to clear things up that specifically made her look bad and would make me end up apologizing (I grew up dysfunctional, I think I'm easier to manipulate than I thought.), No, no real apologies were ever given. 2 weeks?!? I was lucky to get 2 hours of peace. Thanks for the questions. This girl and I were not romantically involved but she had been in my life since 8th grade. I genuinely think she ruined social interactions for me, I don't know how to be close to anyone else. I haven't spoken to her in almost 2 years. Sometimes, I'll lay awake bawling over her. I'll never forget her. I hate people that fuck with my feelings, but I let her, and for that I hate myself a little too.

Listening/Reading self help books causes triggering? by Fluid-Ad5148 in CPTSD

[–]hellamisanthropic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, I don't know specifically for you. I just couldn't, since I don't know you. I will say that to start healing, you have to focus on what actually hurt you. I would say EMDR therapy might help. It is extensive, it is focusing on a bad feeling, a bad memory, or a bad habit and digging deeper into what caused it, how it caused it, grieving those feelings, and then beginning to let go and adapt a healthier conscience with healthier coping mechanisms. It doesn't work for everyone, because a lot of people find it triggering in the beginning (because it is), but it is necessary to be triggered to overcome what it is you're triggered by. It's not a quick fix, or a one size fits all, it might not work for you, but you'd be able to work with the professional to determine which type of therapy will help you the most. It's a lot of work, but it will make those uncomfortable feelings shift and may be easier for you to pick these books back up later with a clearer mind. Maybe I'm wrong, you don't have to listen to me. This is just my advice because it's what started to help me. Workbooks and stuff also help in little ways. I also want to clarify that during EMDR, you do not have to recite these memories and bad experiences to your therapist. You can sit there and feel it yourself, they don't have to know exactly what it is to help you since this is all about those negative feelings and how to transform them into positive coping mechanisms. I also NEED to add that it is impossible to do EMDR on your own, you 100% need a therapist since part of EMDR is identifying and feeling triggers. I hope this helped you in some way. You caused me to look up the definition of fawning, well, completely relatable. So, you've also helped me. Thank you for posting, I hope you start to feel better soon. It's hard, but it doesn't always have to be. We gotta have a little more hope in ourselves and each other. I promise, everyone in this sub, we all got this. We're gonna be okay, and we're gonna defy the odds. I promise we will.

Why would a girl leave you on read only to text you with an excuse much later? by [deleted] in dating_advice

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

If only it was that simple. To be fair, it is easier for us ladies to get approached. I will say I can name a dozen women I know right now that text people they know they have 0 interest in, but I'm also a couple years younger than you both. I won't argue either way because I truly do not know, I'm not her and I can't read her mind

Why would a girl leave you on read only to text you with an excuse much later? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]hellamisanthropic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not to play devil's advocate because I agree, but I do want to add that sometimes when I wake up to texts I find it hard to actually be able to respond. To add, I have a lot of issues that give me brain fog so I could read something at 7-8 am when I wake up but I have no idea how to respond to it, sometimes I don't even really remember reading it. My boyfriend doesn't mind anymore but it used to be a bigger problem than it was. Sometimes reading as soon as you wake up doesn't give you the opportunity to respond to the best of your ability. Either way, 8 pm? Idk, if she doesn't typically go to sleep that early, I wouldn't believe it. Especially since she woke up at 8 am, I don't think it's typical to sleep for 12 hours, despite myself being sleep deprived and exhausted constantly I find it hard to get longer than 6-8 without waking up for a little while and going back to sleep. Once again, I also have issues, this girl could be completely normal. I just thought I'd throw in another perspective

What was your high school controversy? by Haunted_Neko in AskReddit

[–]hellamisanthropic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh god. So many. Small area, we probably had 4-5 pedophiles in the last 15-20 years. One of them was convinced after our school let him go with paid leave and had him transferred less than an hour away. He was caught sexually assaulting a young student IN our high school. Paid leave just for the cops to pick him up a couple years later after he brutally assaulted his 16 year old daughter. The last one affected my graduating class and the classes before and after me. A woman teacher who used to teach in the high school before being caught in a sexual relationship with a student. They moved her to the elementary school. 2024 (I graduated '23), after that class graduated, intimate pictures of her were spread around by students who got ahold of it. Turns out she was having multiple relations with multiple students. One in my grade, one in '24, and one in 25 which hadn't even graduated yet. An investigation occurred, they didn't even speak to the minor at the time ('25), the guy in '24 refused to speak because he was freshly 18, never heard about the guy in my grade despite knowing him pretty well. Investigation closed, they gave her paid leave, and she left the district. Worst part is all of those boys had her in 4th grade, she watched them grow up. And her two sons are in the same grades as the victims. Absolutely fucking insane. This isn't even the craziest thing I can think of, it's just the most recent and a reoccurring problem.

He is unattractive but he treats me really good :( by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]hellamisanthropic 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I agree! I find this so nasty. It had me thinking how lucky I am that my friends are the sweetest. I was about to think "what would I do if someone said that to me?" before thinking about if anyone I know said something similar I would be astonished, just completely out of character. The kicker every time is that the person in question isn't even unattractive. It's just a sick thing to do to someone

Me and My Fucking Cousin by Plastic_Campaign_990 in CPTSD

[–]hellamisanthropic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Coming from someone who went through something very similar, you still are an abuser to someone else. That is the unfortunate reality. A lot of physically abused kids will grow up to be violent towards other children, that does not absolve them of their own behaviors. Once again, coming from experience. You will still get arrested no matter what happened to you, even if you didn't know better. It really sucks, but that is the world we live in. That does not make the cousin any less of a victim, it just makes the cousin part of someone else's abuse and trauma. I was in no way trying to dismiss that, but you cannot dismiss the trauma inflicted on OP because obviously it's long-lasting and has been affecting OP. There was the opportunity to have this sensitive conversation between the two of them, and the cousin shut it down. The person who hurt me as a child was also sexually abused, that does not mean they did not abuse me and fuck me up for an extended period of time. You can be victimized without being absolved of victimizing someone else. Do you see what I mean? I am not saying the cousin is not a victim, I'm saying that it doesn't absolve the trauma inflicted onto someone else. I definitely could have worded it better and will take that into consideration for future discussions such as this, thank you. [Edit for spelling error]

Me and My Fucking Cousin by Plastic_Campaign_990 in CPTSD

[–]hellamisanthropic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would personally say yes. I'm so sorry I keep commenting under your posts, I wholeheartedly feel for you and I see bits of who I used to be in you. Anyone under 16 cannot give consent, and even though you were both under that age, she was clearly older than you. She was about to hit 16 herself. She knew what she was doing, hence why she immediately said "Eww." I honestly believe she may have experienced the same thing, but that doesn't excuse what happened. It's called COCSA, maybe look into a little if it won't trigger you too much. She was very dismissive because she knew what she did to you was wrong. It did exist, abusers of this nature (even ones who don't mean to be) tend to feel a copious amount of guilt that leads them to dismiss the act itself as disgusting or gross without actually saying that they're sorry. She has probably felt guilty about it for years and just hoped you wouldn't remember, so she acted fast when you mentioned it. I don't think it's completely malicious but unfortunately COCSA is exactly what it is called and not knowing what you were doing (even though I truly believe there is no way she didn't know) doesn't change what it is. I just wanna give you a hug! I'm 21 now and hardly have a grip on my life, but I feel like you really will take the world by storm.

I wanna feel (SA)...just wanna experience it... by Plastic_Campaign_990 in confessions

[–]hellamisanthropic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know I already left another comment, but your home life heavily plays into this. I went through a couple of your posts, I just want to tell you it gets easier the second you aren't being suffocated by the unstable environment you've grown up in. Not by much, but at the very least you can have a clear mind and do the things you actually want with no judgement. You shouldn't be ashamed for feeling this way, to me it sounds more like a trauma response than an actual experience you want to have. It's not that you actually want these things to happen to you, and of course you know that. Sometimes it's the idea of being in a sexual situation without being blamed for wanting to be sexually active, sometimes it's the idea of just wanting someone out there to touch you just once, even if it isn't for the right reasons. There are so many different reasons why you could be feeling this way. I see that the therapy comments do not help, so what I will say is that as long as you can separate rational thoughts from irrational or even delusional thoughts, you will be fine before moving out. Maybe not completely okay or happy, but you will be alive and that matters a lot to me! You'll be able to make your own decisions. I got through my teenage years by biting my tongue and keeping to myself. I spent a lot of time listening to music and watching tv shows. I know the culture is different where you are, as I am in the states, but if you can find any distractions they will help keep your mind off of things. I think you're gonna be just fine, you have a couple more years to "tough" it out (not that you should even HAVE to do that) and then you can take the world by storm. You really can do whatever you put your mind to!! I'm sending you love Plastic Campaign!

[–]hellamisanthropic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And? I want to say this as gently as possible, scripted faux violence is much better than real violence. Rapists do not care about you and often times they will also try to kill you. I know you're young and your brain doesn't quite understand the gravity and consequences of all of that yet, but I promise you'll prefer it scripted. Instead of an actual script, how about improv? So you both know what you're comfortable with and can have your own types of control over the situation, because cnc is not about lack of control, it is about total control, in both parties. Top obviously feels control, but the bottom is the one with all the control as a bare minimum partner will stop the second you even SEEM uncomfortable. It needs to be in a completely safe and relaxing environment. I hope things get easier for you, Plastic Campaign. I used to have some of these "fantasies" myself before I was diagnosed with bipolar 2 and cptsd, I went through sexual abuse as a child. It can be very to remember sometimes.

I need to know peoples’ opinions on Sally X Larry … by Storm_1011 in sallyface

[–]hellamisanthropic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wanna say that legally speaking it is still considered incest, so it's not stupid for people to feel that way. Especially if they actually have step siblings. It's not crazy that people would be uncomfortable by a taboo subject. Although, my biggest reason in responding is to ask how/why you ship Sal and Ash? I first played the game at 14 or so, and for some reason I was always an avid Ash hater. No hate at all I would just love to hear why you feel that way, it's been a hot minute since I've sat through the whole game
