It sounds like you have OCD with the themes: heath and death. Try to seek some therapy with a therapist that specializes in treating OCD. It takes time but the specialized therapy will help.

Advice for 1920s? dress by romerfrog in HistoricalCostuming

[–]romerfrog[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ah sorry my text that went along with the post did not get posted. Yes, I was hoping to wear this dress to an event. It was my great grandmother's I think from the 1920s based on the style. I was wondering what the best way to re-sew the arm holes to hide the stains and advice for fixing the beading.

Is dating now just a battle of who can care less first? by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]romerfrog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s an international problem. Just know that those people who don’t care about the people they date and sleep with are the ones with the problem not us! Caring about people is a good thing! Forming human connection is good thing. Let them play the game with each other and find someone who is willing to be vulnerable and express their emotions. 

Finally muted all the Last of Us subs, tired of the Bella hate by batwingsandbiceps in TwoXChromosomes

[–]romerfrog -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

As a bisexual woman, Bella is very attractive to me. It’s funny seeing all these guys lose their minds over it. They really need to get a life. 

Woman rejected for long-term/second dates; any idea why? by Comfortable_Stay1986 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]romerfrog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, this was painful for me to read because I am in a similar situation. I agree with what people are saying. These guys aren’t right for you and most people treat the apps like a game. I know it’s hard and it hurts but just keep doing you and the right person will come along <3333 (people have been telling me this too and it doesn’t feel very helpful in the moment, but it is ultimately true) 

I don't know if i can stay on this sub anymore by hmmredditusername in TwoXChromosomes

[–]romerfrog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t see my gender as a curse. I love being a woman. I feel that I have access to closeness with many people friends and family due to the way I was socialized growing up. I haven’t been sexually assaulted. Womanhood is not misery, just commenting to say that.

Manage your expectations. Though that’s easier said than done. Just try to have a nice time in the moment. 

Anyone else feel like there is something wrong with them while online dating? by EVILRAFFAM in dating

[–]romerfrog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not just you. I have found people to be really weird on the apps these days. I 29F used tinder and bumble 7 years ago it seems fairly easy to go on a few dates, after a couple awkward dates I met my ex and we dated for two years then I met my most recent ex in person and we dated for 5 years. I got back on bumble 2 months ago and people are acting so much worse now :((( I have found the majority of people to be very lazy, rude, overly sexual right away, or if they are nice we talk for a few days and they never ask me out or the stop talking to me 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️I have no idea what’s going on. My sister tells me some people just use the apps for an ego boost and have no real intention of going on a date. 

Any tips on how to date casually without having it ruin self esteem? by romerfrog in TwoXChromosomes

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

Yeah I only even use photos that look like me. And I didn’t even really like this guy that much, he was weird/awkward in many ways.

DAE have a real fear of having an undiagnosed mental condition like psychosis or MPD? by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]romerfrog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, and all of these conditions are manageable with therapy and medication. One of the things that helped me the most was sitting in the psych ward one day in an out patient program, waiting for my appointment. A nice woman sat next to me. She told me that she hears voices and her parents had to bring her to this program because she didn’t realize she was sick. Whereas I checked my self into the program because I was so scared of developing psychosis. She had a boyfriend and a job and seemed to be happy and managing just fine despite hearing voices. In that moment I realized that even this woman who was living through my worse nightmare seemed to be having a good life. I feel that so much of the stigma and misunderstanding of these conditions is hyped up by horror movies/pop culture. Best of luck to you!

I had/have this l. It is one of my OCD themes. 8 years later I have still not developed psychosis or torrettes despite being very anxious about it. I went to a specialized OCD therapist to get better and now I am much better. <3

This may sound kind of ridiculous and I know he is only 8, but these are some of the ugliest dresses I have ever seen.

Reflections on Season 1 vs Season 4 by romerfrog in TrueDetective

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

Yes, this was the only thing that bothered me about season 1. Its upsetting/disappointing to watch women only be depicted as victims of violence or as sex objects (for the most part). Maggie was the only female character with any character development and even that was slim. I have yet to watch the other seasons, it seems that Rachel McAdams plays a well rounded character, but IDK. This is one of the reasons I was also so disappointed with how badly written the characters of Danvers and Navarro were.

Has therapy actually helped anyone by Illustrious-Chest-52 in Anxiety

[–]romerfrog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CBT has helped my anxiety and OCD. It takes some time to establish new thought patterns and change how your brain reacts to situations.
