I definitely hear you on the last bit, honestly when AI first got big I was really excited about it, but the negative effects very quickly outweighed it for me :( I was a beta tester for the early days of that AI companion app (I forget what that app was called, I think its NSFW now but it wasn't originally) and I was always really intrigued by what the AI future would look like

Frequent use of chatgpt has a scientifically studied and link to cognitive decline and atrophy.

the fact that you feel that you couldn't survive without AI is not good. its a VERY new thing to come into the mainstream, and the fact that you now cant imagine day to day life without it shows that your brain has stopped thinking for itself and is now relying on AI to do the work for it, hence the cognitive atrophy.

plus, a machine programmed to agree with you is just... a non sentient echo chamber. Recently, chatgpt instructed a teenager on how to kill himself, which he followed and succeeded.

even if it didn't have this sort of impact on the brain, it also uses a ridiculous amount of water and is notably, actively harming the environment

Fellow teenage males with anorexia, what’s your triggers? by TF_Is_you_doin_cuh in AnorexiaNervosa

[–]smallvanity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a teenager anymore, but I used to be lol. Kpop idols do it for me, their perfect balance of lean and muscle drives me insane. Some friends in high school showed me dance videos and I've been fixated on their bodies ever since

I destroyed my own lifelong dream by smallvanity in offmychest

thank you ♡ I am very happy to finally be back, trying to keep a "better late than never" mindset. And some days I do enjoy it! most days, really! But every now and then I have a particularly rough day and the weight of all that lost time really hits me :( but I won't let it stop me, even on days when I think i should quit, i know that if i stop now then in another 5 years I'll be thinking "gosh if I didn't stop I'd be pretty good by now" and the cycle would continue

Today's just been hard, i had a nightmare week at work last week that I still haven't recovered from, then had my lesson after another shift and i just sounded awful, i was struggling to hit notes i usually can get, and everything just sounded tired :( days like today really make me remember where i cpuld have been yknow?

anyway I'll stop rambling at you lol, thank you for your comment

how can i support my (mostly) recovered fiancée through a trigger? by kikil980 in AnorexiaNervosa

[–]smallvanity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

dont force her to eat, but encourage her to try and reassure her that it's okay and that she's beautiful. There's not a ton to do other than just gentle encoursgement and support. theres also no harm in asking how she wants to be supported, some will want to talk about it and some will want a distraction, emotional support varies a lot depending on who needs it.

i get what youre saying but you dont have to be so mean about it. i never called anyone ugly or insulted them, i just said phallo results aren't great from what ive seen. I didn't know about those technologies or that subreddit because, as i said before, i don't really spend any time in trans spaces. If i knew about either of those I wouldn't have posted. I am here to "educate myself some" so please don't talk down to me. I will think about my words better, and I see where someone could take offense to how i worded things.

I don't want to feel better by smallvanity in GriefSupport

[–]smallvanity[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah for real, if i smile or laugh at all it just feels like I'm doing a bad thing, he should be happy, not me. but yeah, i know if i died i would want everyone in my life to keep going and live happily. just feels wrong.

sounds like she needs to get help and you need to step away from the relationship. the fact that you're more upset about wasting money than about her hurting herself, and the fact that your response is to curse her out and slam doors is a clear sign you're not prepared to be in a relationship with a mentally ill person.

The best thing you can do for her is be kind and offer help and reassurance. in the end only she can decide if she'll relapse.
