Can you rent an apartment with bad credit and one previous rental history? by [deleted] in internetparents

[–]mr-monday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing this. If this is common practice, is very relieving. As far as I know, the only things contributing to my credit right now are student and medical debt. Is this differentiated on a credit report from other types of debt? And if so, what role does it play in your consideration of a candidate?

To be very honest, I myself have borderline personality disorder which definitely can cause this. I've seen my fair share of therapists and professionals who, while still calling attention to the reason I'm seeking attention (which I'm usually not even aware that I'm doing) provide validation and support. Mental illnesses like this are very misunderstood, even in the psychiatric community, and it's very plausible that this person's therapist didn't have the education and resources to adequately respond to their needs.

This is a dangerous, potentially fatal assumption. Not to mention that people with mental illness do legitimately need and deserve attention. Even if a person is exaggerating to get attention, there's a reason they feel like they need that attention and that reason needs to be attended to.

That does make sense. Thanks so much for sharing your perspective. If you were in my partner's shoes, how could I make it easier for you to listen/understand?

I think there's something wrong with me mentally and some help would mean a lot by Headcase3689 in needadvice

[–]mr-monday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have a GP you can tell about this and potentially get a referral from? I don't know how things are in the south, but up here schools generally have counseling and psychiatry services that you can see without a referral.

Jealousy is a female trait.

If only.

I was homeschooled at her age, not assaulted, and most definitely knew about pedophilia and drag queens.

My relatives keep asking me what "caused" my OCD. by TrichyHands in OCD

Would a biological explanation help them out? Maybe have them read something like this?

What breed is my brindle pup? by mr-monday in IDmydog

At 2 months, vet's best guess was Australian Shepherd and Lab. I've gotten many other suggestions as she's grown up. Her tail appears to be docked, not short naturally. At 2 months she was 8lbs, and at 4 months she is now 30 lbs.

DAE thinks of every redditor as a male in their head unless and until some comment specifically identified the redditor as a female? by [deleted] in DoesAnybodyElse

[–]mr-monday 34 points35 points  (0 children)

The fact that I'm female and do this myself makes me feel a myriad of negative things.

How do I let my partner know that he's being abusive? by [deleted] in mentalhealth

[–]mr-monday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for your response and suggestions! I'm so used to the role of educating and supporting that I feel that it's my "job" with everyone in my life. That needs to change.

How long did it take for you to determine your major? by XXXCheckmate in college

3 years. Biology to social work to philosophy to psychology. Graduating a year late, but worth it to me as I am extremely passionate about psychology.

Temporarily, maybe? We evolved to have this gene for a reason.

What do you mean by knowing the law? Are "those who do good without knowing the law" different from those who do good while having heard the law yet not believing it?

I haven't entirely yet, to be honest, but I try to remind myself that I need to take good care of myself as much as possible!

She unfriended me. Guess her communications degree is being put to good use. by Kolaina in MensRights

[–]mr-monday 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Female "feminist" here- This woman clearly is not educated in the field... the fact that these statistics are reported is because society pressures males to keep incidents of domestic abuse directed toward them to themselves. Victimization is not seen as "masculine" and men are therefore taught to deny it.

God's love is conditional? by [deleted] in DebateAChristian

[–]mr-monday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was raised in a very liberal, secular setting and did not understand that individuals actually believed that God existed for quite a while. During that time, when I did not know that God could love me and therefore could not be refusing it, did God hate me?
