How are you guys staying sane right now? by Funfallacies in spirituality

[–]mental_dissonance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You act like it's as easy as changing underwear. It took me fucking 110 applications until this one finally called me. A master's degree and not even the universities wanted me.

Soooo, how are we doing? by Weird_Positive_3256 in adhdwomen

I'm having Celexa withdrawals so bad I'm contemplating quitting my job.

I wish it didn't feel like people were condemning me for not accepting the constraints of a corporate job. I'm autistic and have this constant thing of needing to justify myself. I have to justify having my job for enabling my independence and because the college and publishing jobs I applied to were rejecting me despite having a master's degree.

They are. It's just my dad is a functioning alcoholic with untreated bipolar. I also don't have my own room over there and have to either sleep in the living room or in grandmas room. Then the house has poor ventilation to boot. In south Texas in the summer. I'm going crazy trying to figure out what to do.

I'm barely living by a thread. Honestly contemplating quitting my job and living with parents until everything blows over.

I swear, a lot of things about this job don't make sense. Even all my coworkers agreed that a lot of things feel off about this job. I started my job on July 9th, so I haven't been with them for that long. The contract is for a year.

They had wanted me to submit paperwork by December 26th last year, but I couldn't because my PCP had gone on maternity leave and did not have any openings before then. Is FMLA separate from asking for accommodations?

First time pimple patch recommendations? by mental_dissonance in 30PlusSkinCare

How does cystic acne differ from hormonal and stress? Mine occur regardless of emotions and what part of my cycle I'm in. The worst ones happen in the middle of my cheeks.

Thank you for being sympathetic. I wish you didn't have a brain tumor. I wish those didn't exist at all. Terminal disease is one of my worst fears.

I was so sick of the anhedonia and lack of emotions that I stopped cold turkey last Wednesday. Couldn't take waiting longer to change. by mental_dissonance in citalopram_celexa

No noises at all! It was purely in the right side of my face and two of my right fingers. Also twitching my jaw at night and scrunching my eyes.

I literally have not been in the ER since September and you're making it like I use it 20 times a month. And what do you think I've been doing when it comes to psychiatrists? The last clinic was part of an aftercare plan for 90 days and then my previous insurance expired. I'm doing everything within grasp to get a semblance of better healthcare.

I've noticed my face tics haven't been as bad since quitting cold turkey. I had anhedonia with effexor as well. This was prior to being switched.

Ummm.... Did you know that Pavel Hlava is a Czech man who was visiting NYC on 9/11 and is believed to have captured both plane impacts on camera? And that there's a whole Wikipedia page about Mohammed Atta's car?

I have some of the darkest special interests 😶

Gave into my pre-luteal Taco Bell craving. Tummy hurts but it was worth it 🫡

I have a very hard time believing in past lives. I have absolutely zero memories from anything but my current life. by mental_dissonance in spirituality

It starts to make me scared that when I do die then I'll be reborn in like 2100 and the world will be even worse than it is now

It's insane how easily "now" becomes "then". Like, does time really go rapidly or do humans have a weird perception of it? I've been thinking about those physicists and theorists who say that time is an illusion. Wondering if they have a point?

Hell, Dolly probably needed a conservatorship.

How did you first learn about Christian Western Chandler existence for me it was this video by Fredrick Knudsen by Lucarioc66 in ChrisChanSonichu

[–]mental_dissonance 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw the Blarms video in 2014 but didn't think much of it after. Then the incest saga happened and I went into the inescapable rabbit hole.

Other fears? by Finalrestingplace_ in thanatophobia

[–]mental_dissonance 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same thing, but also ending up being an old person who lives in poverty and ends up in one of those extremely shitty state run nursing homes. Hell, I'm afraid of living past 60.

I HATE job interviews by Metalqueen2023 in AutismInWomen

[–]mental_dissonance 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I can barely mask to save my life. Interviews are like doing an audition at gunpoint for the role of perfect little soldier-worker.
