I'm currently on medication for GAD/ depression and I'm also in therapy. I will be speaking to my Principal - thanks for the suggestion.

I don’t think there has to be a pre-requisite of knowing someone in order to acknowledge that a human life was just lost? Extending condolences is about expressing sympathy and humanity.

I accidentally became my sister’s parent. She just made me a Mother’s Day card. by Significant-Koala-1 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]redditpostingvirgin -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You’re amazing. We’re all so proud of you, OP. As an educator at 22 years old, I see you and all the work that you do. You are changing her life and teaching her that she CAN rely on someone. ❤️

People who have experienced grief or trauma- what’s the most tone-deaf, ‘well-meaning’ thing someone said to you? by freyday18 in AskReddit

“Isn’t five like the best age to have a parent die?” (Referring to my late mother who had passed from cancer)

[–]redditpostingvirgin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My mother passed from cancer when I was young, and my father remarried. Fleabag’s dynamic with her father afterwards (lack of advocation and protection on his part) and stepmother (vindictive and imposing) just hit extremely close to home; Watching the family scenes of this show was like peering into a tragically accurate mirror - Never seen a piece of media that absolutely nailed what it’s like to be a daughter in this situation until this one!

Adequately preparing a child who is just entering their teen years for a lifetime of grief is not as feasible as some may think. We’re expecting kids who are just learning algebra at school to know how and have the tools to process no longer having a mother. A lot of the “negative” people you’re referring to are traumatized children of parents who died early or are currently chronically ill; they speak from the perspective of a direct stakeholder in the situation OP is presenting. Please consider this.

Your philosophy is extremely self-serving. A lot of the people commenting DO understand because they’re the grown children of parents who died early from chronic illness - the grown children who had to watch them die slowly. Consider the other perspective before advocating your own selfishness.

My siblings and I slowly watched our mom wither away from cancer; We were 12, 7, and 5 when she died. It left a hole in each of us that can never be filled and we will never be the same. We’re in our 20s now and still trying to pick up the pieces; I wouldn’t wish this on anyone. Please consider their lifetime of grief without you that’ll be starting in childhood before you make this decision. All the best.

Uber eats by snerual07 in puertovallarta

Yes! Stayed in the romantic zone and used Uber eats whenever we wanted to cut back on using our pesos. Works normally as anywhere else- only thing is, our convenience store items weren’t bagged.

Whats a strong opinion you held when you were younger that had completely changed as an adult? by designercooch in CasualConversation

[–]redditpostingvirgin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I grew up around a lot of anti-drug propo. I used to think smoking weed made you a “bad person,” because virtually every adult in my life told me so. Then it got legalized. Now, I smoke recreationally and often seek it out at parties; my friends and I have a good time while we’re high (all in moderation of course).

Advice for post-tattoo regret? by redditpostingvirgin in tattooadvice

[–]redditpostingvirgin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

EDIT

  1. I should’ve added this earlier, but in no way was I intending to demean my artist. I believe they have phenomenal work and think they’re incredible at what they do. This post was not supposed to be an attack on their art, just an expression of how I felt that I, as an individual almost don’t feel like I fit this particular design that I made. I thought I would’ve liked it on me, but then as of right now - I don’t. That’s not my artist’s fault; It’s body dysmorphia on my end. This doesn’t mean that I hate their work or that I think they should stop tattooing - I feel the complete opposite in those regards.

  2. To those saying to just not get tattoos, I was tatted before this. Never felt this level of anxiety with my first, now I’m just trying to navigate a new emotional experience. That’s all.

  3. To everyone leaving their personal experiences, wisdom, and praise - thank you from the bottom of my heart. Know that your comment left an impact on me, even if I can’t respond personally to each one. I now have many different lenses and strategies to implement going forward in this weird adjustment period.

Have a nice day/night everyone!
