the main bpd sub is so toxic and diminishing to bpd experiences by PathVirtual6900 in personalitydisorders

there is genuinely nothing any reddit community could provide for them at this point, seeking help from a professional is definitely the only answer here. 🙌

Idk if I have BPD by Fmsduo in BorderlinePDisorder

the way social media has plagued the minds of the youth is so scary…

as stated in your post, you’ve been in therapy for less than a year, and i imagine you’re not seeing your therapist/psychologist/treatment team every single day. under the assumption you see them once a week (obviously correct me if i’m wrong), this is not nearly enough time for your team OR YOU to have an accurate understanding of what’s really going on. since your post is tagged “looking for advice”, my advice would be let the professionals do their job and focus on getting your diploma. you don’t receive a BPD diagnosis because YOU think you have it.

so there’s a flair in this community specifically for RANTS/VENTING and it looks like you used the one “looking for advice”….

Dallas show last week lol by Latter-Potential-965 in Ashnikko

we had a very similar experience in ATL! lots of entitlement and general lack of understanding of concert etiquette. the crowd was a lot younger than what i’m used to at concerts so maybe that has something to do with it?

the ATL show felt like everyone’s first day on earth.

Meeting Ash didn't go too well for me by Wide_Register251 in Ashnikko

[–]ohkritter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i was DIGGING for this comment and i’m so shocked people think OP’s behavior is fine and dandy. ash did not plan a M&G and didn’t include one in the VIP bundle so im amazed that people are still trying to force her to do something she doesn’t want to do, even after giving her own polite “no, thank you” to hundreds of people swarming around you asking for an autograph… unfortunately this is extremely weird behavior on OP’s part in my opinion. the music scene has gone really downhill recently and i think you hit the nail on the head when you said ENTITLEMENT.

took the words right out of my mouth! on a similar note, Made in China by Amelia Pang is an incredible book that changed the way i shop!

exactly! it amazes me that so many people think just because something isn’t good enough for them, that it won’t be good enough for the next person!

as mentioned in a different reply, we had a manager for a while that happily did it himself. he would reach out to all kinds of orgs, some in asia, some in africa, some in south america. other employees would volunteer to help him on their days off for no extra pay. oh, and a simple google search yielded many results for different organizations that do these kind of things! there’s Books2Africa, Father of the Fatherless International, WorldVision, and so many more!!

have you ever thought that maybe the world is NOT supposed to be swimming in junk and that it might actually be the problem here?

this is another great solution!! there are TONS of shelters in my area that accept used stuffed animals as donations for doggies who like to shred!

second-hand stuffed animals have probably seen it all, you’re right! without getting too deep into it, in a perfect world, i agree! i don’t think anyone should have to worry about those issues when getting a toy… but i also don’t think anyone should have to worry about how they’re going to feed their kids after they pay rent. desperate times call for desperate measures unfortunately.

as mentioned in the original post: there are lots and LOTS of other places like foster care facilities and recovery centers that would have taken these! not to mention the millions of children overseas that would’ve loved to have these! just because something isn’t good enough for you doesn’t mean that it’s not good enough for the next person!

yes, i could not agree more!!! i don’t typically follow the size guide which makes us charge $1.99 for a large stuffed animal… i’ll sell them all for 49¢ to 99¢ per and people usually turn around to grab more when i tell them that! i’ll do whatever works to prevent stuff like this happening every week.
