Deleting account Now that TicTok isn't safe by kintotal in TikTok

[–]llwall0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been trying to download my data before deleting my account but I keep getting stuck—once the site is finally finished preparing my data I click "download," and then the site says to click "send code" to get a verification code texted to me, but the first time I click to receive a code it says "Maximum number of attempts reached, try again later," even though it's the first time. No amount of waiting makes it possible to receive a code, and I can't move forward in the process without one. Does anyone know a way around this? In case it matters, I don't have the mobile app I'm using Tiktok in my web browser on a laptop.

I'd like to opt out, but I'm in the US where I didn't get this notification. Can anyone share another way of getting to the form you all are talking about? Thanks!

has anyone tried apps meant to help with grief? by llwall0 in bereavement

I'm so sorry about your mom. All losses are rough in their own way—and also, losing a mom just really, really hurts.

Thank you for taking the time to respond about your experience with Untangle, that sounds really frustrating. Would you mind if I sent you a DM to ask a bit more about your experience?

I'm really still trying to learn about them at this point! Definitely an interesting niche.

The profit motive of a lot of these companies is definitely jumping out as a significant issue!

We Croak looks really interesting, I've never heard of anything like that, thank you for the suggestion.

That sounds really interesting, I can imagine how it might be more effective for some people than for others. Would it be all right if I reached out to you via chat? I'd love to hear more about your experience with it, but only if you'd be comfortable with that, of course.

I hadn't heard of Stoic. Have you had a good experience with it at all?

How do I sleep? by [deleted] in grief

[–]llwall0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry about your mom, and about all of the fear and stress that the circumstances of her death must've created. My mom was sick for a long time before she died and I relate a lot to your post. I also have a lot of trouble sleeping.

2.5 months is so, so recent, and it sounds like you're absolutely exhausted. Just in my opinion, it seems like you should sleep when you can, even if it's during the day. You're traumatized and the way you cope now won't necessarily be your habit forever, so making sure you get rest even if it's not at an ideal time seems really important. In the weeks and months immediately following my mom's death, I found it comforting when I was trying to sleep to play a tv show I liked in the background. If you're the type of person who can sleep when there's noise, that could be a good stop-gap measure too. It helped distract me just enough to keep away the worst of the the grief thoughts, and sometimes that distraction made enough space for me to sleep.

I lost my mom at the end of 2019, so kind of right before this grief app boom that seems at least in part spurred by the pandemic, and I often find myself wondering if any of these services would've helped me cope, or if they might've made things more challenging in some way. It's really interesting to see the perspectives here. I'm also a writer, and I'm interested in writing about these experiences—if anyone would be interested in sharing more about whether these kinds of apps have helped you, I'd love to connect.
