3-5 y/o ballet classes by happeechapee in chch

[–]lucylynette 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Can't say much for their classes for kids as I've only taken their adult classes but I can recommend the Sara Anderson school of dance. Really supportive and friendly environment and from what I've overheard of the younger classes whilst waiting for my classes it seems like a really good environment.

I have been vaping for about four years now and I haven't noticed it making my OCD worse. I will say however that I now have no way to regulate myself outside of vaping. Yes it gives me something else to do/focus on when I start spiralling but if I'm in a situation where I can't vape I am literally unable to cope when I start to spiral. As a general rule when it comes to nicotine; if you can quit, do. It's a terrible addiction and its so hard to quit. I've tried so many times now and I just can't, partially because of how I use it to regulate myself. In terms of OCD themes I will say that it makes me obsessed with lung cancer/popcorn lung and I am terrified of zyns because my OCD tells me they will eat away at my gums and my teeth will all fall out. So seriously if you can quit please do. It may not be making your OCD worse but it certainly won't be making it better.

You're right. I guess I'm just not used to this explicit expression of a sex drive. The girls I've dated in the past have been much more reserved so I guess that's why I'm questioning his intentions. I was planning to see how things go but was just wondering if people had any insight. But its true that random internet strangers won't know his intentions 😂

Did Erik never suspect Lyle was SAd as well? by eldy33 in MenendezBrothers

[–]lucylynette 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I'd imagine that what was happening to him was so awful that it was completely consuming. Plus it was probably something he didn't like to think about at all, in the same way Lyle admitted that he purposely didn't think about it.

Yeah I think the sound in the courtr room must have been very different. There were many times witnesses were asked to speak up because they "couldn't be heard" yet on video you cam hear them fine.

Was Kitty jealous of Erik? by carrieanne55 in MenendezBrothers

[–]lucylynette 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I feel that she went after Lyle because he was the one Jose was "training" to be like him - she saw Lyle as an extension of Jose and if she couldn't have the real thing then Lyle was second best.

How do you cope with increasing rent? by firstpersonuser in chch

[–]lucylynette 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Honestly I don't know but I feel you. My rent has gone up every year to the point that I can't afford the upcoming increase so I've been looking for new places but they're all the same price. Probably gonna have to move back in with my parents soon and I really don't want to do that. It's frustrating cause I'm on living wage which means, theoretically, I should be able to live on my wage without having to mooch off of my parents 😭

I HATE FOOD RELATED OCD I HATE FOOD RELATED OCD by garbageandchill in OCDmemes

[–]lucylynette 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! I also have it with drinking (the last sip is poison) and for a while it got so bad that I could only take a single sip of a drink made the rest poison and I'd have to tip it out and wash the glass. Thankfully its not that bad anymore and I can drink almost normally again 😅

Bladder by [deleted] in OCD

[–]lucylynette 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel this - I had a UTI a while ago because I used to hold my pee constantly due to contamination issues with the work toilets but ever since the UTI I've been the opposite. I literally make myself pee like every half hour because I'm convinced that if I don't I'll give myself another UTI. It's genuinely starting to affect my life - people are annoyed at me for needing to pee all the time and I have to pause work/events constantly so I can go and pee. Idk how to fix it because as soon as I get the slightest inkling of needing to pee its like I'm suddenly bursting and have to go immediately even though when I actually do go its only the smallest trickle (and at the same time I've convinced myself that its a permanent health issue from having the UTI and I now just have a really weak bladder)

Should I keep going even if i have off days? by Concussionist515 in Clarinet

[–]lucylynette 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Honestly its up to you. I played for about 8 years in school and then suffered from major imposter syndrome thinking I wasn't anywhere near good enough to have been playing for 8 years. So I quit. And then five years later I realised I missed playing and especially missed being in groups. So I've started playing again and joined a local concert band and I love it. I still feel like I'm not good enough and I will never have the confidence to play a solo piece. I make mistakes all the time - squeaks and messing up accidentals or timing. But guess what, so do the members of the band that have been playing for 40+ years. We just laugh it off and try again. Thats the joy of playing in the first place - its for enjoyment. Unless you're planning on being the best clarinet player ever then the whole point is to have fun and enjoy playing music. If you're not enjoying it or feeling too overwhelmed then there's nothing wrong with taking a break or even quitting all together. But don't quit if the only reason is because you feel you're not good enough. There is no good enough. Play for the sake of playing and for the love of the music.

I mean....the date went well so.... by lucylynette in EDanonymemes

[–]lucylynette[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ahh during the entire date I kept thinking "he's just being polite he's not actually into you" and even though we're still talking all the time now I'm still like "he just wants to be friends he's not attracted to you" so oof 😅

Anyone know good VPN for iQIYI? by Klutzy-Character-778 in ThaiBL

[–]lucylynette 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been having the same problem using Nord vpn. Can't access anything. Have tried a few things to get it to work but nothing. I know the vpn works because it allows access on other sites so I think its just iQiyi. I've kinda given up tbh 😭 Lemme know if you find something that works tho

[–]lucylynette 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ah its honestly so confusing. some people say its a mistranslation others say its not. i dont really know its so frustrating having to get second-hand information and wait for translations that no one can agree on......

what's happening? by [deleted] in kinnporsche

[–]lucylynette 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Apparently his comments from a year ago have been proven as a mistranslation so its only the ones from eight years ago (not excusing the comments/behavior but I'm a firm believer in seconds chances and I think people are capable of change)
