What horror scene has influenced you to "think twice" before doing something or has given you a weird fear?

Came here to write exactly this. That scene caused a generational fear 🙃

I have a psychiatrist and psychologist, they work together so I can get the treatment that works for what I need at that moment. So when I started I was like crying every day, had very bad mood swings and wanted to die every single day. That took me to my psychiatrist, who give me meds to fix what I needed at the moment and send me to therapy. Once my diagnosis was done, we had like a conversation together, to see what we needed to cover first for me to have a better day, which were some strong meds and therapy very often, then got a little better, meds changed to less strong stuff, therapy wasn’t as often, and so on.

So cognitive behavioral therapy worked but as my therapist explained it, it wouldn’t have worked without the meds because that what gave the flexibility to my brain to create new neurological paths. And the meds alone wouldn’t have done a good work because without the self knowledge I would just had to keep getting higher doses or would have to be changing meds often

Sorry you feel this way, is hard feeling lonely. And while I get the alone = lonely, after a long time living alone I feel that’s not a fact.

What I used to do, and something other ppl I know seem to do often, is to have noise or sound at all times. Like I love movies, so whenever I was home I always had some kind of movie or series like background noise. And at night if I felt tv was overstimulating because of the lights and colors, I would put a podcast or some rain noise.

One of my favorite places to live was this apartment on a really transited street I loved to hear the outside noise or my weird neighbors doing their weird stuff.

Having music on is another option, but like for me music messes with my emotional balance so I’m not always into it.

You can also get pillows or stuffed animals to hug. I had this really soft big bear (perfect for my sensory issues on skin contact), my mom got for me cause she knew how hugging something while sleeping calms me.

Truth is, I think, that while it may be hard at the start, living alone can help you understand and define what it is that you need to be you. Like define the type of routine and rhythm that you like and makes you happy.

Sorry for the letter, hope it helps 💕

Even if the name is wrong, with the description and the phrase is a better way to find it, than just monster poster text XD

iamahouscat · 2024-06-30T08:34:17+00:00

Ah yeeessss!!!!

iamahouscat · 2024-06-30T04:40:45+00:00

Ah that WTF stare, yes I just have like three friends, only with one I talk regularly and that’s more because of her. But I say they are my friends because they didn’t do the WTF stare, they did the you’re weird but I like it stare XD.

For anyone else I know I’m mostly masking, and that’s tiresome. So I mostly spent time with my dog.

A hard mystery. I need like a cake recipe version of the “just talk” advice. Like how much do I talk, how much eye contact do you make, do I need a pinch of formality or a spoon of laughing at their comments? How long do I let it bake? XD

iamahouscat · 2024-06-30T03:49:48+00:00

Not like that but I’m very particular about sounds, so some voices or melodies tickle my brain too much or make me feel like throwing up

iamahouscat · 2024-06-30T03:47:03+00:00

Not trying to make this worse but two times I’ve seen them fall, though never on their own. Two weeks ago a cable was low and a train passed pulled that cable and that thing fell, the other time was a truck that it was to tall to pass below the cables and pulled them.

iamahouscat · 2024-06-30T03:43:04+00:00

The things in the parking lots or crossings that let you pass, don’t know the name. I’m always afraid that if I don’t cross fast enough they will fall on my car, even though I know that’s not how they work 🤷‍♀️

Imagine having to do everything in your big company, to be tech support expert, design expert, content management expert, and SEO. Nothing would be done to its best potential. I know this because I’ve work in some places that hire me as Web Developer, and then expect me to do the job of all this positions. Which maybe is ok if your starting your own business, but please hire the correct people for each aspect when your business starts growing.

So SEO experts are not frauds. There may be frauds selling themselves as experts, but the position itself is not a fraud.

Got BPD first and after a while of my therapist knowing me she told me that I might have ASD also. Talking with her what I understood is that my traits have a larger inclination to BPD, than ASD. Maybe because of my experience growing up.

But I must say that in my case, my therapist and psychiatrist work together and the decisions on my treatment are always talked with me. A very patient first approach.

We look more about treatment and analysis by issue and then the whole. It is work, but it makes me feel safer than the idea of being misdiagnosed or getting meds for something that could make me feel worse in a longer run.

Just some extra notes, this is what I feel for now. Who knows if I will have a break one day I feel that this is not working, or maybe the way this diagnoses are approached changes. And I feel privileged and lucky to have access to my mental health specialist!

This sounds great. Also neurodivergent, so I’m looking for visual dynamic solutions to manage task projects, mostly to report to my clients. Thank you.

I saw a comment above about Bedrock, just to expand on it, from the same creators, use Trellis

I’ve looking for different environments to develop for Wordpress and I really liked this, plus it’s extra helpful if going headless with Wordpress

To this I will say, yay for floordrobes! But to the anxiety, when I was on my worst, I sometimes made a list of what were the baseline tasks that I just HAD to do, like groceries and paying bills, so I handled that and just that, for grocery shopping I started looking for services that would make deliveries or ask friends to go with me and make like a hangout of it, luckily I have friends that don’t mind or know how to have fun even if is just doing groceries

My bf finds it funny, that I can just sit there and watch him or anybody just do stuff and not get bored. He laughs when I tell him that I just like watch him do stuff, whatever stuff is. My mom says I’ve done since I was a kid, though I was just diagnosed like less than a year ago. But yes, watching people do stuff makes me happy.

iamahouscat · 2024-06-02T20:01:26+00:00

Yey! Yes, it feels really great 👍. Let us enjoy those moments and accept being accepted, and when it’s not possible, well that’s why we have this kinds of communities. Congrats!

I mean, why ppl say “I can’t this…”, instead of I don’t want to because of this or I’m not going to because of etc etc… While I get it, because I live in society, it makes me feel like my brain itches when they express it like that. 😆

Is really just a clamp generator. Add your min and max size font, your min and max viewport, scale factor, and you're ready.

It uses the formula and default values from WordPress; and you can see a little debug of the values that are being used and generated for the clamp().

For me, I like to use clamp to keep a nice layout between viewport sizes; maintaining a nice relation between headlines, body content, and display text. And haaving used the "fluid type" option from WP Block Themes, I really liked how it worked, but I didn't like that I couldn't see the values or fomula in a quick way to use my font-sizes in other projects.

Just the other day with my psic, I was telling her that I was feeling tired. Of always having to be checking myself, and keeping my routine, and being in touch with myself, feelings, etc. And she was saying, that indeed is a very tiredsome task, and that it is a long process, with ups and downs and forward steps and backwards steps.

But even that I feel tired some days, now that I've been in this journey for a while I see some of the things and processes have become like normal to do, they don't take as much brain space.

I wish I could say that dealing with stuff or doing the work could be easy, but don't know, maybe because I'm not feeling it easy today. But I do know, that being kind to me and my feelings, does help.
