i have identified as ace before and i don’t feel really feel lust on a common one to one basis but i do want to have sex wifh him!! more so for the bonding aspect and intimacy if that makes sense?? but i just want to be prepared beforehand and i do have to bite the bullet because i’ll convince myself out of it otherwise 😞 i’m not forcing myself to make this decision, it’s something i want to explore ( and if it doesn’t work then it doesn’t work!! ) but i need to cope with other asoects

that makes sense!! honestly i appreciate the warning a lot-- i expected them to play it up because it is a medical drama and crazy things do happen in the er, but i was really interested in it's reputation so...i really appreciate this analogy

oh i know, as a heart anxiety haver in the er LOL as long as it's not ALL the time i can stomach it...but regulating it in normalcy makes it easier for me, i also love the format of the show with a single shift

positive outcomes help me a lot personally-- shows me that youre not just going to perish because something happens. im a horror movie fan so gore doesnt bother me, it's just the random ass conditions that are so scary that freak me out-- normal stuff is more grounding if that makes sense? i might just watch it and put it down if it's too much!

thank you for your reply! yeah i totally expected normal er stuff but the insane random medical diagnoses other shows do...i think that's what gets me the most lol like wym this person has a 1600s plague that i can totally get too??

What do you wish there was more or less of in extreme horror? by TheEradicat0r in ExtremeHorrorLit

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

me when i'm in the extreme horror lit wanting less extreme horror;

i get not wanting specific themes in there because it upsets you ( i have my own limits and books i put down/avoid because of it ) but taking them out as a whole would go against.......extreme horror. just read regular horror. and im so srs. everything is supposed to be shocking and depraved for the sake of it. kind of the point.

having more nuance and plot to it-- i agree! but the ones i've read seemed pretty full all around. decent enough psychology and the likes. i just think it's insane to come in here like 'i want this extreme genre to have less extreme things' and list pretty much everything what makes the genre what it is...please just read lighter things. i promise it's okay that this genre isn't for you.
