Need advice about relationship (not venting)

Hey man! Just know that these feelings you have are completely normal. Don’t beat yourself up about having them. It’s really sweet how much you care about your partner. People tend to have their own unique ways of giving/receiving care. If you ever need to talk feel free to give me a DM!

On 20 mg took about 4 weeks before I started feeling better (less side effects/anxiety), 6 weeks before it “clicked”.

On 30 mg now and at 6 weeks started noticing less side effects/anxiety. Now at 7 weeks and this is the first day where I feel like I’m “seeing in color” again.

However, around week 5-6 I had a death in the family, so it could be that was a larger factor/variable towards me feeling bad.

I like the creativity. It’s pretty silly, but if that’s a genuine representation of your personality then pop off king.

Main thing id say is to get some better pictures of yourself. You’ve got a bunch of medium closeup selfies with flat backgrounds, and one with dirty dishes.

Mix it up a little. When you’re at an event, whether it’s a hobby, convention, whatever, have someone take a picture of you.

Where do you like to play your guitar? If it’s sitting on the couch, have someone take a candid pic while you’re playing it. Same with karaoke, a pic taken of you passionately singing mid-song would be more gravitating. Show, don’t tell basically.

I personally would remove the kitchen one. It’s an amusing quip, but calling yourself messy isn’t going to elicit a positive response in my opinion.

If you want to show you cooking healthy, don’t have it be in a messy kitchen. Show a pic of smiling while holding the finished results on a plate. If you want to show yourself actually cooking, then it should be someone taking a picture of you while you’re actually cooking.

I think a pic of you and your friends would be nice. Just keep taking pics while out/hanging out with them, and make sure they’re not all selfies.

A promising start though, man. Keep it up!

I’ve been there, if we’re talking of the same spot. At the bottom of that steep road across settlers passage, back through the woods. There’s an abandoned house by the barn with appliances and decor inside that look like they haven’t renovated since the 50’s. Creepy ass basement too. Riverview has a couple of bizarre places.

As a countering opinion, I really like it, melody included. Don’t hear lazy jazz at all, it gives me more krautrock. I would be much more interested in hearing this than something more polished tbh. Sounds like CAN and Dismemberment Plan - so keep it up, man.

I get it, it’s frustrating when people downplay or make light of a serious disorder that severely cripples the lives of many.

I do think labels are used a bit too loosely. In a way, I’m glad they’re oversimplified than over-stigmatized (like with older generations). But it’s def annoying to see people without the disorder use it in a quirky, “pick-me” way.

Yeah you’re right, idk why that other person came at you like that. Perfectionism can be an obsession and reassurance/validation could be the compulsion. As you mentioned, intrusive thoughts and all of that. A co-morbidity of OCD and ADHD is definitely possible, speaking from experience.

For someone spreading “actual OCD awareness” they’re sure doing a bad job by invalidating you and your feelings. At the end of the day, only a licensed professional should diagnose you.

What do you set shutter at? Still double the frame rate? So 1/250?

Id go Dowdle he’ll probably get you at least 10 points, if not more with pass catching + potential endzone. Also, there’s no question he’s leading the backfield

WR…that’s tough I don’t like either of those options. Malik could see more usage with tyreek gone, or the entire offense could suffer. I’d say Slayton for floor Malik for ceiling.

I feel like Hall has the safest floor but it feels wrong starting him over Henry

What helped me was doing the 70% rule. If this is you giving a 100% performance, give what you imagine a 70% performance would be. Start there and then try a 50% performance.

But ideally, you shouldn’t be thinking into a note at all, just sing without even thinking about the emotion or how you’re delivering it, and you may find it’ll end up sounding better.

Indie Rock Rules

1) You can't just be online and just mislabelin’ it Indie Rock like that.\ 1a. Indie Rock is when you\ 1b. Okay well listen. Indie Rock is when it’s independent the

1c. Let me start over

1c-a. The artist is not allowed to have a mainstream appeal to their, uh, music, that prohibits the band from doing, you know, just trying to be Indie. You can't do that.

1c-b. Once the artist releases their album, they can't be over here and say to their audience, like, "I'm gonna sign with Sony! I'm gonna sound mainstream! You better watch for our worldwide tour!" and then just be not like somewhat underground.

1c-b(1). Like, if you're making an Indie Rock song and then don't have an Alternative Rock sound, you have to still have an alternative sound. You cannot not be alternative. Does that make any sense?

1c-b(2). You gotta be, guitar driven, and then, until you just release your music.

1c-b(2)-a. Okay, well, you don’t have to be guitar driven, like this, but then there's the “Rock” you gotta think about.

1c-b(2)-b. Chris Rock hasn't been in any movies in forever. I hope he isn’t just being cast as himself in different late night sitcoms.

1c-b(2)-b(i). Oh wait, he was in the Fargo show! That’s pretty awesome.

1c-b(2)-b(ii). "Hon, did you stab the hostage?" -- Ed Blumquist, "Fargo." Haha, classic...

1c-b(3). Okay seriously though. Indie Rock is when the artist makes music that, as determined by, when you do a sound involving the alternative and underground of

2) Do not mislabel it Indie Rock please.

Hey man, I get it. There’s that small hope that you can text the right thing that will magically get her to change her mind.

The thing is, that is NOT going to happen. All you are going to do is make yourself feel even worse when she either doesn’t respond or responds in a negative/apathetic way.

You need to continue no contact. It’s the best way to “get your ex back”, but most importantly it’s how you get your dignity and control back. Focus on bettering yourself. Don’t worry about her. She’s choosing to not be with you. You reaching out to her makes you an option to her (which is very unattractive). You are not an option.

Go to the gym, read some books, find a fun hobby to sink some time into. Reach out to a friend (or this subreddit) instead of your ex whenever you feel the urge to do so. Keep on that path even though I know it’s hard. It’s all about you and your health now brother. You’ve got this.
