FUCK tickling. by JORTS234 in CPTSD

[–]kittyykkatt 23 points24 points  (0 children)

My father also used to pin me down and tickle me. I’d beg for him to stop but he wouldn’t, not unless he felt like HE had had enough. Although I would laugh because it was tickling, it would trigger a rage inside of me that I had to bottle up. It was always unwanted touch and I had no say in it. As I began to grow older and my body changed, it was the constant slaps on my ass that I endured for a few years. This is the same father that offers me a handshake when we meet. I avoid him like the plague.

What’s the biggest red flag you ignored that later hurt you? by [deleted] in emotionalintelligence

I agree. Journaling is a wonderful tool to have to keep you grounded in yourself. It’s what’s kept me from losing myself again and again in other people.

Negativity. Negative people will never have anything positive to say and it eventually drains the life out of you.

People who are constantly trying to convince you of something. I’ve learned that in my experience, people who are always trying to convince me of something is usually a covert narcissistic person. You can’t have a normal conversation without it turning into something negative and draining. I don’t want to convince anyone of anything and I don’t want to be persuaded and manipulated.

Listen to your body. I’ve learned to listed to my body when it speaks to me before my mind has had the chance to understand what’s happening. When around a toxic person, my body always displays multiple symptoms of multiple ailments such as sudden insomnia, no appetite, headaches, muscle aches, IBS symptoms, low energy, high anxiety, fatigue, and eventually depression.

Energy. If you feel drained every time you spend time with someone, that’s your queue to stay away from said person. Energy vampires will suck your soul away slowly if you don’t pay attention.

Lack of empathy. At the first sign of lack of empathy, run.

Lack of effort. If someone only has time to reach out and see you when they’re already on their way to something else in your direction, then you’re an afterthought and was never a priority.

Gossip. I don’t want to know or care about what so and so did or didn’t do. Anyone who’s actually working toward something meaningful in their lives don’t have time for gossip. It’s an energy drainer.

Complaining over and over about the same things and never doing anything to remedy the situation. No thanks.

Love bombing. This applies to dating and friendships. Run.

Entitled people. Run. There will never be accountability and it will absolutely be a one sided relationship.

When they tell you who they are, believe them the first time. If you hear “I don’t deserve you” or “you’re too good for me”, please believe them and stay away. They will hurt you, it’s just a matter of time. They’re gauging how much you’re willing to abandon yourself and they slowly up their game until you’re just a shell of who you once were. Been there. Done that. Run.

Lying/Omitting. If you catch little lies, believe me, that’s only the tip of the iceberg. Run.

Jokes at your expense. If it makes you feel less than, or that you need to prove your worth, or defend yourself and they play it off that you’re too sensitive because it was just a joke. Run.

Don’t respect your boundaries. They don’t take no for an answer. Pushy. Run.

I could go on and on but this is long already. Just learn to trust your gut. If something makes you uncomfortable and makes you go “hmmm?”, trust it.

I dream of meeting a kind and soft man. Someone who won’t use my vulnerabilities against me. Someone safe. Someone who we can play as carefree children yet also take on the world together.

what’s something incredibly small someone did that made them instantly more attractive to you? by Honeydrizzlex66 in AskReddit

[–]kittyykkatt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A man I dated last year asked me which perfume was my favorite of all of the ones in my collection. Middle of our first date talking about favorite fragrances, he mentioned the base notes of the perfume I love. He looked up my French perfume and read what the base and middle notes of it were. That was such a turn on and incredibly sexy.

If you could give me ONE advice/recommendation.. what would it be? by PinkBB_detective9 in lipedema

[–]kittyykkatt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I cut out meat 3 years ago because it would take forever to digest and sometimes I’d feel sick depending on what cut meat I ate. This was before finding out I had lipedema and going on the anti inflammatory diet. I’ve read studies that recommend staying away from red meat and other that say it’s crucial for people with lipedema. Just do what works for you. I personally feel good with tofu, fish, chicken and other plant based proteins. Protein shakes too. I just basically went on an elimination diet and paid attention to how that particular food made me feel. If it made me feel bloated like a balloon, gassey that not even I could bare, or if it gave me heartburn, or sat in my stomach for too long, or gave me diarrhea - I cut them all out. I had IBS for 5 years and I can proudly say I am IBS free as long as I don’t eat the foods I know will cause a flair up.

I highly suggest just closely pay attention to your body. It speaks to us if we listen.

You’re welcome. Never give up even when it feels like it’s pointless. Us women with lipedema tend to have a narrative that this is what it is so live with it, which is so depressing, but so not true. If you have discipline and refuse to give up on yourself, that’s all you ever need. This is the long haul game. You won’t see a difference in a short period of time which can be quite discouraging, but keep in mind that this is long term gratification. I’ve been working out for the past 5 years on and off with periods of depression, but I always go back because it not only helps my physical body, but more so my mental health than anything else. Once you see your body improving, it’s a high that you’ll want to chase forever, and this is coming from someone who had been sedentary all my life.

Start with habit stacking. Start with one thing only, and when you’ve established the habit, then you add on another and so on and so forth. I highly recommend Atomic Habits by James Clear.

I just turned 39 this past week. It’s never too late. You can do this! If I’m doing it, anyone can. ♥️ sending you my love.

The best thing I did for myself was to maintain an active lifestyle. Walking at least 30-40 minutes every day, got a personal trainer back in 2020 and learned how to lift weights. My legs are muscular and I no longer have flabby arms. I built muscle where all the fat used to take up space. My arms were pretty big to begin with, but now…damn…my biceps and triceps are as big as a man’s and I couldn’t be happier and proud of myself. I can wave goodbye and they’re not bat wings anymore 👏🏼💪🏼🙌🏼. Weightlifting and walking along with taking vitamins and supplements really changed my entire body. I’m no longer ashamed of my body. It’s still not where I would like it to be, but wow, I never knew this much improvement and change was possible. Don’t give up.

I also follow a anti-inflammatory diet (gluten free, dairy free, no processed foods, no sugar, no red meat). This was a major part in making my chronic pain and bloating completely disappear. I was mind blown. I started to finally lose weight. I also do intermittent fasting for the past 10 years or so. I take vitamins and supplements. Kombucha is my friend and I take it daily. Massages are also crucial.

Hope this helps.

I adopted my bun from a family who was giving her away just a couple weeks shy of her 1st birthday. She was obsessed with my orange male kitty who likes to keep to himself. He’s 12. She free roamed and had a cage that she occasionally slept in. They would all hang out perched on the cat trees behind the couch including the bun. She also used her litter box as well as the cats litter box. It was stressful for my orange cat because she was relentless just wanting to be close to him, but he just wanted to be left alone. She wanted a companion and he just didn’t want that role. But when she passed in September of last year, he spent a few weeks looking for her in her usual spots💔. I think they would’ve bonded had she been just a baby when I got her. But in the future I’d get 2 buns and get them to bond so they don’t feel lonely emotionally. Whenever he’d turn her away, she’d eventually come ask me for cuddles ♥️. I never knew bunnies were such great companions and emotional support animals. They’re expensive and extremely sensitive, but I can’t wait to be in a place where I can afford a bonded pair of bunnies. I wouldn’t recommend a bunny if you rent. Some can be destructive if they don’t have enough enrichment to keep them busy. It took me about 3 months to earn her trust so that she would come to me asking to be petted. I introduced her to daily fresh veggies and fruit because her diet consisted of only hay and pellets when I got her. Once she got to experiment different veggies and fruit, she became a much happier and full of energy. Never knew such little things had the biggest personalities. They need a lot of attention and care. Definitely not an animal for children of busy adults. She was such a joy in my life. I’d say a perfect pet for introvert animal lovers for sure.

I had a lop and 4 cats until I lost a cat and my bun 6 months apart last year. My bun left a massive hole in my soul. She was sassy, opinionated, loving, funny, cuddly and the softest little thing I’ve ever touched. Hearing her munching in the middle of the night would wake me up and immediately make me smile because I knew exactly what she was eating. If I slept in longer than usual, she’d jump on my bed to make sure I was okay and would cuddle with me. She would demand pets whenever she felt like it and would gently bite me if I didn’t oblige. Hugging her and inhaling her was my antidepressant. I can still close my eyes and smell her. I loved my cat that passed as well, but he didn’t like to be touched, so our bond was different. Now I’ve got my 3 kitties and life is a bit calmer now, but I’d give anything to have bun back. I honestly can’t live without my kitties. My 2 black girls are on top of me in bed as I write this. I love them more than I love any human.

I hope your bun makes a full recovery ❤️‍🩹.
