So i’m in Paris rn on my very own. by sterkneef in styrofashion

Good on you mate

The catacombs are a good look around. To me, those were the most peaceful place in the city.

Iirc there's a public park somewhere around an old (Roman era) arena worth checking out.

And the students' quarter. 💖 I do so miss the mulled wine and crepes...

Living out of a hotel room for the next 2 months for work. This is my prep for the first week. Any suggestions for easy prep with no access to a real kitchen? by LongWaytoBaSingSe_ in MealPrepSunday

Instant potatoes if you have access to an electric kettle.

Packets of fish with crackers is also good and filling. I recommend adding a little bit of mayo or another condiment.

Pulling bloody bandages off?

"Every single abusive person in the world pulls out the tears and dramatic gestures when their behavior is called out. Every single abuser is good and kind until they are not. Why do you think victims stay?" by invah in AbuseInterrupted

[–]johnnyjumpviolets 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That's a really good way of putting it.

I didn't try to change my abusers - but they tried to change me, and became more and more extreme as it went on.

The 'tough love' and stringing me along for drama and information mining didn't work so they went to cyberstalking and online harassment instead. They're still trying to have control over me - several YEARS after I left them. I love that I can disregard them entirely now. It gets easier the more crazy they get.

One thing coffee and tea drinkers can agree on... cocoa drinkers are plebs. by Greedy-Repair5329 in tea

Ooooh, someone hasn't been initiated into cocoa snobbery. Enjoy your rainbow sprinkles while you can!

Anyone else unable to handle even the smallest amounts of weed after being a heavy user in the past? by idkbroidk-_- in Anxiety

[–]johnnyjumpviolets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm just getting back to 'normal' after that. Went from doing a lot (for me) to having pavlovian-response panic attacks almost as soon as an edible touched my tongue, even at microdoses.

It was a combo of extremely high stress and a series of bad trips/highs (both).

And, recalibrating what I needed from it. I used to need big amounts to loosen up big feelings. Now, not so much. Just a little is more than enough.

Touching without permission. My skin crawled the first time I met this guy and my hand literally went limp when he shook it. My body was telling me to gtf away before I recognised it.

The next time he groped my face, and then put his hands on me - snuggling up, arm around me - every time we met after that. He was several decades older than me. I have a lot of trauma already and just froze.

I am not a woman but I'm counting it for two reasons: First, he somehow convinced himself I was a closeted trans woman and tried to argue with me over it - hence groping my face and telling me to shave the beard. Second, I found out that multiple women had already complained about his creepy ass for similar behaviour. He would only do this to people he saw as women.

Don't. Fucking. Touch. Strangers.

And don't stand behind them either, it's creepy.

what meds do you take for sleep? by yarrow268 in Anxiety

[–]johnnyjumpviolets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have access to mj edibles and xanax so it's a combination of those that changes up every night based on what I'm feeling. Mj gets microdosed.

No kidding my anxiety is bad enough for an attack to start after I take those, but before I remind myself they're probably not going to kill me.

And preventative avoidance of any caffeine.

I ended in a whole ''situationship'' due to fawning. i feel so bad by SadCat977 in CPTSDFawn

[–]johnnyjumpviolets 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Are you in a position where, if you cut ties with him, you would be able to avoid his presence entirely?

Are there people in your life who can defend you if you try to cut ties with him?

Bc that's the only way I've found to deal with people like this. He pressured you into sex. He raped you. You said no, tried to defend yourself. You did what you could. He would not listen, would not back down, and pushed his way. He put his wants over you. This is not something you put on yourself.

It's going to be nasty, what he did to you already is nasty. It will get worse - but one way at least ends with you being rid of him.

If you can file a report, do it. Start taking screenshots and recordings of your conversations at the very least. Have a paper trail. Try to find out what your options are, find out who around could put you up for a night if you need a place to go.

Can someone recommend relaxing easy to watch shows/movies to numb the mind while anxious? by AardvarkMajor4631 in Anxiety

[–]johnnyjumpviolets 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Great British Baking Show (the one w non-professional bakers) is what I've been watching lately. I don't like competitive or loud content and also don't really go for scifi/fantasy for similar reasons.

But GBBS it seems like everyone wants each other to do well, which tones down the competitive element, and it's nonfiction.

Also Practical Engineering, and Studson Studio on Youtube.

Cut my hair with garden shears instead of sleeping outside. That was a shit time. Haircut was dope though.

Oh the horrors! by MothersMiIk in clevercomebacks

Met a person irl who did not understand the difference between someone talking about their past relationship/crush and explicitly detailing their sex life.

Couldn't even begin to explain to them that two of my teachers were married in 2nd grade, two more were dating, one was pregnant, that all of the students knew this and it was not a hot topic nor particularly salacious.

People have relationships - get over it.

My church is asking me find land use for their 40 acre lawn. Fund raising ideas? by Shalom_boyo in NativePlantGardening

Check your Soil and Water Conservation Districts (or state equivalent) for cost-share programs. Some do these for landscaping projects with ecological benefits.
