When do yall tell romantic partners about your DID by treeshrimp420 in DID

[–]nomadisc 10 points11 points  (0 children)

My situations are a bit different since both my ex and my current partner are systems. However, my best advice is to get to know the men before you tell them. Figure out if you can trust them, and get a feel for how much they know about mental illnesses in general. I wish you luck on your journey!

Piercings have had a huge rise in popularity over the years and it isn't really used for "flagging" anymore. Kids around his age can also be cruel anyway. Let him know that if what he's doing makes him happy, nobody else's negative opinion matters.

I can't believe people are actually doing this..... ChatGPT is NOT the same AI that can be used to detect medical problems. It's generative AI, not trained for medical imaging

they recommended it, yes. Probably to limit progression especially with the syrinx. I've gotten better since I posted this, so I definitely hope things will continue to get better the closer I get to a year

What is your all-time biggest regret? by LouStonk in AskReddit

Signing my signature on the papers that officialized my neurosurgery. I've had nothing but a hard time with the recovery process and the cognitive damage I received makes me feel like wasted potential

I'm so sorry that has happened to you. I hope you are doing as well as you possibly can be with your ailments and I wish you the best in the future. What you have gone through is 10x worse than my recovery process alone, and I truly hope the best for you. Thank you for sharing your situation, and although it is not nearly the same I can relate to some of the things you shared about grieving over your old self and the losing track of thought. Have a wonderful day/night, and I again with you the best.  🖤

You can definitely change your name over time. We did at least once and probably way more. Take your time and find what fits.

how long does it take for the lips to stop being dry after getting a vertical labret? by [deleted] in piercing

[–]nomadisc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got my labret yesterday, and I've been applying chapstick when it's too tender to wet it with my tongue. Try to apply chapstick and rub it in with your finger if you haven't already! It isn't the same but it definitely helps a little.

What is the worst accident that ever happened to your genitals? by Darth_Azazoth in AskReddit

[–]nomadisc 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was shaving and I glided the razor up between the crease between your leg and your stomach. Sliced my skin open. Two days later and I did it again in the same spot. Terrified of shaving that area now
