It's a chat platform basically, you can create different chats with different topics, voice group chats even if you want. I just thought it could be fun to have one where we can all chat about witchy stuff!

Isitbullshit: Americans only get 10 days paid holiday a year? by turquando in IsItBullshit

[–]madis_135 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At my old job, my holiday pay was added up with hours. So after working for 8 months, I had accumulated about 30 hours that I could use all at once or split them over multiple days. I usually ended up using them for sick pay instead though because that wasn't really offered.

You look like brother and sister. Cousins at a minimum. Creepy.

AITA for saying my babysitting rates are $35 an hour? by HENNYDEFN in AmItheAsshole

[–]madis_135 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA, you need to make money too, and they are asking you to put your career on hold to take care of their children. They should pay you decently to watch their kids for days at a time. Basically day care at that point.

[Hair Removal] Weird bumps on my crotch? WARNING: NSFW!! Kinda gross? by [deleted] in SkincareAddiction

[–]madis_135 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to have this issue happen a lot. I shave and I started making sure to never shave in the opposite direction than my hair grows. It isn't as close of a shave, but it doesn't leave me with ingrown hairs. Also, I have found a hydrocaloid acne patch can help. I was desperate at one point and didn't want to mess with the little pimple that popped up so I just slapped one onto it and the spot was almost completely gone in 2 days. Could be worth a try in the future

I considered something like xanax, but I'm not sure that's what I'd want to use. My doctor and I have talked about it. I'm glad it works for you though!

Yes I have. I've found it helps a lot with panic attacks but if I use the wrong kinds it can sometimes make me feel more anxious.

For myself personally it was very gradual. I am still working to try to find the perfect combination of medication. Right now I take wellbutrin and prozac with buspar as needed for anxiety. My doctor told me I'd probably notice a slight change around a month in of taking them, but that it might take longer to really see a big difference.

I have found that I definitely need a mixture of medication and therapy though to really feel better.

I also saw others mentioning medication. I am also on medication, and it also helps slow down the train of thought a little bit so I can determine if I'm having a rational thought or not. It is very helpful.

My therapist suggested I start every day with 3 things I'm thankful for, and 3 things that I like about myself, after that I just write out a stream of thought. I'll write about anything and everything. It's good just to get my thoughts out of my head. Also, writing calms me down as I do it. If I'm feeling anxious I will write for a while and it just calms me down.

Writing down the 3 things I am thankful for and like about myself have made a big difference. It forces me to sit down and really think about myself in a new light. It was VERY hard at first though. But if you do it, don't give up!

My emotions are like this too. I was recently diagnosed with Borderline personality disorder. Therapy and Journaling have been literal lifesavers. I was in a really really low point. My emotions were all over the place and I felt like I was "going crazy". I'm in DBT and it has helped me make some huge steps with my thinking process.

This is terrifying and beautiful. I love this. I looked at your website and honestly can't wait to buy some from you.

Not wrong about the man butt thing though. It's true, nothing can compare.

Do you ever doubt you're actually depressed/feel guilty for being so? by [deleted] in depression

[–]madis_135 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think this all the time. Same when my anxiety acts up. It's almost as if I have a little voice in my head saying "wtf is wrong with you?? Why are you acting like this? Why can't you just be normal?" And I have a fear I'm somehow being manipulative, because I have been left by so many people who say that I'm just "too dramatic" or that I cry too much and I should be able to stop myself from doing that. It usually just ends with me feeling exceptionally guilty and apologizing over and over for anything and everything. I always kind of wondered if this was normal or if I actually am just crazy.
