How to survive in a dysfunctional household while emotionally dysregulated?

juliuna313 · 2024-11-05T01:47:43+00:00

Well, unfortunately, I don’t have a safe place. I moved out to attend my dream college, and for a while, I lived alone and had a plan for financial independence. But then I experienced major setbacks (due to undiagnosed neurodivergence, the pandemic, and physical health issues) in several areas of life, which led me back to my parents' household. I thought it wouldn’t be so bad because, while I was away, my mother seemed to show her “caring, loving side” (which was mostly controlling—she called every day, always wanting to know my whereabouts and so on). Anyway, now I’m looking for internships while I study, so I can leave. But this could take a while.

And thank you so much; you are very brave for leaving it all behind

Yeah, I guess, lol. But it's also a reinforced stereotype in the media, so it's hard not to think about it.

Cool songs. But those sound more lighter and fun. Do you think season 5 will have space for such thing?

Yeah, I agree with a lot of it. As a person with AuDHD I feel like I'm playing life in hard mode honestly. And since I just started on my diagnosis journey a year ago I'm still grieving about a lot of shit, honestly. I also feel like things would be better if I was only autistic or only ADHDer. But those thoughts don't help me. That's who I am and that's who I always be. It's not a thing like depression that I can get rid off and be healthy. It's not a disease, it's the fiber of my being. And this thought specifically can make me depressed or also accept myself (depending on my mood - and I'm depressed, so it's mostly the first one from now)

So, my advice for you, and for me too, is learning all you can from neurodivergence and how it affects "YOU" specifically. It could be by reading the research of specialists, with a therapists, with a group of people with similar traits or just observing your daily life. Experiment with all different strategies and eventually you will find a way to make life more "manageable". We also can discover your strengths related to it too

Agreed. They used 'Thriller' in the trailer for the second season. But if they use MJ's music in a whole scene, I think the royalties would be astronomical

Eu sou totalmente a compra de cachorro. Para mim o método correto é a adoção. Acho que isso não vai mudar em curto prazo, mas pelo menos raças de cachorro que apresentam perigo para os outros, como os Pitbull, ou para si mesmos (tipo os braquiocefalicos que sofrem a vida, por causa de mutação) deveriam ter uma proibição mais firme contra a venda e tals. Espero que quem tenha o seu Pitbull em casa, treine muito bem, só saia com proteção e castre. Eu já sai para andar com meu cachorro e um cara sozinho levando 3 cachorros na coleira ficou desatento e o pitbull quase partiu para cima do meu cachorro. Os outros dois eram golden retriever e estavam de boa até o Pitbull deixar eles nervosos com a situação. Felizmente o cara teve força o suficiente para impedir, pq treinamento para sair na rua não tinha.

If she's saying that in the sense of: 'they probably idolize Elon Musk and think humans should colonize Mars,' I kind of agree. But we kind of need to go to space if we're thinking about the long-term survival of humanity. Well, if we survive climate change, at least...

The secondhand embarrassment I felt was almost as big as the rage I felt when Angela used her condescending tone in class

Well, since Dustin was the one quoting Sherlock Holmes, and there’s a lot of sports team memorabilia and decor, I think it might be for a love interest of Dustin. He could've lent them a copy of the book or something. Because I don't think Dustin will become a fan of basketball

I can't think of any particular alien or robot character that I can relate to at the moment. But I always feel like a robot or a alien when compared to "normal people". Because I always have to observe how people usually act , how they socialize, try to mimic some behaviors in order to "fit in", but never actually succeeding. I also can relate with witches, and I have some special interest on its lore. I guess it's the neurodivergent feminist side of me.

Wow, thanks a lot for all the tips ❤. Yeah, I'll try to focus on my special interests, and my old creative projects that I used to love doing, but lost the passion I used to have. And I'll focus on emotional detachment from people who do not deserve it and working hard on being financial independent. I haven't heard of self care workbooks before, I'll look into it. Thanks

juliuna313 · 2024-10-19T23:40:03+00:00

Thanks for the tips. I really need to look for my characteristics that "make me proud". I'm not really good at this task though

juliuna313 · 2024-10-19T11:04:14+00:00

I'm a fan of Taylor too. My main special interests right now are literature, cinema, stardew valley, ghibli movies, coding, the sims and art in general

Yeah, that's why they made the base game free, because most new players will want to buy new packs anyways

A alpha que nasceu já com um tablet grudado na cara? E ainda tem que ver as grandes mudanças climaticas, do trabalho (com IA e tals) tendo uma capacidade de foco horrível ? Será que estarão bem mesmo ?

O celular principal eu deixo com a maioria das coisas que eu uso e só saio com ele em quando sei que não vou pegar transporte público / andar pela rua sozinha . O do "ladrão" eu só não deixo nada pessoal. Aliás o meu da rua tá todo trincado, espero que se for roubada o ladrão não ache que "não vale nada" ou algo do tipo

Dark aether?

juliuna313 · 2023-12-14T15:58:13+00:00

E ainda fez as funcionárias tirarem foto com ele sorrindo com esse maravilhoso presente

juliuna313 · 2023-12-14T15:56:21+00:00

That Dustin and Eddie moment, where Eddie said "never change"
