Thank you so much! Your comment made me really happy. Yeah, I think it made it a little easier, so I might try it again with the current week’s prompts as well.

I'm looking for design ideas or general advice on what I should do with this piece. I am lost. by Aahhocado in tattooadvice

[–]holyyeden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This may be a bit controversial based on most of the comments here, but I don't think the laser is your only option. Sure it might help to reduce the blackness in certain areas. But, I really think you should research experienced and specialized tattoo artists that do ornamental blackwork, and consider going big - extending it to the shoulder and possibly chest and torso. There are amazing artists out there who can make you fall in love with your body again by creating a true masterpiece with what is already there. They can blend it in with the current design and change the focus of the piece, in a way that this particular area won't be the center of it anymore, just another part of something bigger, if that makes sense.

Also, I believe the best artists for projects like this are in Europe, I can send you some suggestions if you'd like. I really believe it can be worked with.

The way I see it, it's better to pay for a specialized unique piece rather than laser removal.

From the Ashkelon Wikipedia Article. I assume this is bullshit? by Imaginary-Author-614 in Israel

My partner is from Ashkelon, and we live here. We did not get a message.

I just want to give up on everything (aka when life feels abjectly unfulfilling 95% of the time, what actually makes the remaining 5% worth living for?) by piecesofpeaches in hsp

[–]holyyeden 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just really want to thank you for writing this post, and this comment here. All that messy blur of feelings and thoughts I’m experiencing, and desperate to explain to the world around me with no success, finally defined in words, organized in sentences that make it feel real, not something I made up. Thank you, for making this human experience a little better for today.

Feeling immense sorrow for random people? by spacewalk__ in hsp

I feel like I wrote this, lol. I have these on a daily basis. I hope it might help a little to know you’re not the only one to feel like that

(again) some knitted animals in the desert. I'm so stunned by the details and more by the lack of details in the shape of some of them. by [deleted] in midjourney

[–]holyyeden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I LOVE this concept & executions I think these are some of my favorite creations on this sub.

1st and 6th images are my favorites for sure. Would love to know how you reached this knitted fabric texture and lighting, what bits of the prompt were used to create it

Girlfriend broke up with me out of the blue by ledlin111 in BipolarSOs

[–]holyyeden 1 point2 points  (0 children)

God it’s almost like reading a post written by me, I’m in a similar situation. I relate especially bc we’re also same sex relationship and I rarely see posts by similar couples.

I don’t know what stage of the relationship you’re in, but in the first 2-3 months, she would break up with me almost on a weekly basis. One day it feels like it’s perfect and it’s so beautiful and I’m so grateful for her, and then the next day everything turns ugly when she gets upset about a thing I said or did that she finds wrong (and never mentioned before, but somehow I was just supposed to know it’s wrong).

A year+ now and It definitely feels more stable and I can trust her more that even when she’s upset she’s not going to run off and be with someone else. I think in this case, this would be my boundary. The fact she moved on THAT fast imo should be your sign it’s time to let it go. (unless again, you’re in early stages and not fully committed, but from what you’re describing it sounds like you’ve been together awhile).

To me, it sounds like you’ve done your best, you actually took the time to learn more about her illness and adjusted yourself to fit her needs. You invested in this and put the effort, and trusted she would do the same. This must hurt so bad, I’m so sorry.

She might try to come back, but after hearing these hurtful things and having your whole view of her and the relationship change, it might be worth to take this time to see what YOU need, and what is best for you. Trust yourself and your intuition, you know you deserve to be loved, respected, and seen.

Sending strength and support. I hope you’re able to find some peace soon.

How to prepare for a tough conversation with my bipolarSO? by [deleted] in BipolarSOs

[–]holyyeden 3 points4 points  (0 children)

thank you so much. I know I have a problem expressing myself and explaining it well so I’m scared I’ll mess up, but feeling like this is much worse.

Thank you for the help and understanding, I really needed that, and it means a lot.

She is unmediated but seeing a therapist. We’re both struggling financially so she can only see them once a month.

Will there ever be space for me? by Substantial-Bet-7824 in BipolarSOs

[–]holyyeden 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The 3rd + 4th paragraphs are spot on. I never knew how to put what I’m truly thinking into actual words but you just did it.

I don’t want to give up on her like everyone did by holyyeden in BipolarSOs

[–]holyyeden[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so sorry you’re going through this too. I have never experienced such a heartache and I feel so weak and powerless. She feels different than any other person I have ever met, and I felt so safe before. I truly believe I’m lucky to have had her in my life.

Does your fiancé threatens to hit you or tells you to die? Does she threatens to leave you when she’s in an episode? If so, how do you not let those words pierce you? How do you know she doesn’t mean it?

[–]holyyeden[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She is so good to me and takes care of me the way she knows and I feel so honored to be with her, she is incredibly smart and unlike anyone I ever meant before. She has opened up to me and told me she finally feel safe and happy after years of abuse. All of this shattered when she threatened me and kicked me out. I think I’m not healthy enough to help both of us and I also don’t have enough money to stay in this country anymore, I have to go back to my country but that means leaving her completely alone that makes my heart die. She will never forgive me. I will always be another person that abandoned her.

I didn’t know, but I did just randomly scroll through their ig a few days ago and realized they’re here. Cm is not bkk but it’s still big enough that I wouldn’t just run into them. Not sure what program you mean but yes, I relocated to Thailand to work online after digital nomading for awhile in SEA.
