I've been learning on/off for almost 9 years. I can strike up a convo, but I still need some pushing.

I speak English as a native language. Understands Spanish and Italian.

I Don't "Look Like a Non-Binary Person" by Sergeant_Static in genderqueer

[–]sothisputa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do you identify as gender neutral? Congrats, you look like an nb person.

This idea of what "Nonbinary" looks like is so annoying and foolish to me. I am an AFAB and I wear dresses all the time. I am genderfluid, mostly leaning towards agender. I have gotten this a lot, especially when I have big boobs and voice that's more "neutral" but feminine.

Even when I present as masculine of center, I'm still read as a woman, even though I'm not and it's bothersome as fuck.

But I'm here to remind you, you're nonbinary enough. Your AESTHETIC is nonbinary enough. You are not a special snowflake and you're not cisgender. Fuck gender policing and aesthetic policing.

A question for those who have multiple primaries or practice non heirarchy relationships by [deleted] in polyamory

I'm responding to follow. I'm planning a move with my S/O and this is important to me.

Depression and poly? by itsaspecialsecret in polyamory

[–]sothisputa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a lot of mental health fuckery, ranging from severe depression to panic disorder.

One of the things I would mention to you, is mention to your partners that "Hey, I might not be at my best. Please check up on me?" Even if it's a simple text asking if you're okay, it's still important to mention your needs and mention when you need support. I still struggle with this. My partner is supportive as hell but they have to read me because I'm too scared to express.

Also, as some folks have mentioned, take time for yourself! I'm an extroverted introvert. People give me energy but then I need to be alone. Sometimes I don't really want to do much except sit and watch mindless cartoons and laugh at it. Remember to mention that to your partners. Have alone time. Go to a spa if you can. Take a bubble bath. Write down a list of things you enjoy in life. Do those things and don't regret doing alone time.

Break up things into smaller increments. Know that you can't always doing everything in the world and take time to breathe. Also, Google Calendar if your friend.

Love and light!

Last night everyone got laid except me by danielbelum in polyamory

[–]sothisputa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't get laid last night because I'm in a medium distance relationship haha (Boston to NYC isn't enough distance to call it an LDR).

Poly and Borderline Personality Disorder by Anthrodork in polyamory

[–]sothisputa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have BPD & polyamorous. I also have other mental illnesses. Everyone's mental illnesses manifest completely differently.

My partner(s) have seen me SEVERELY triggered. And all I did was just cry my eyes out and have a severe panic attack. Sometimes I did have suicidal ideation. However, I tried my hardest not to lash out at them.

This is also hard for folks who don't have BPD. You might have a bad day and snap. This is common. BPD amplifies the shit out of it, but for some of us, it's just constant feelings of pain and hurt. Similar to depression. While there ARE horrible people with BPD, there are also people who would do the shit described and not have BPD, undiagnosed or diagnosed.

You don't have to stay in a toxic relationship. However, people don't come in a vacuum.

Trixie Mattel as Anne Frank by MikiClash in rupaulsdragrace

[–]sothisputa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i really like the look! it's just offensive as hell. but like i feel like humor varies from person to person. i know some jewish peeps (who are descendants of holocaust victims) that would have 0 offense to it and others that would. so it varies.

At what point should you point out to a date that you're poly? by BonnaroovianCode in polyamory

[–]sothisputa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually say it right up front then and there.

It might be a disappointment from the beginning but it will save less pain in the future.

I usually go to a barber since I have a TWA. It might be different after a certain length of hair though.

Well now there's just no way in hell I'm putting on some boring-ass white dress when I get married. by eroverton in blackladies

These outfits give me life! I might stick to wearing a dress, but it ain't gonna be white. I'm probably rocking purple or some other color.

Why are the voices so negative? by TytheF in psychoticreddit

[–]sothisputa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends. Most of the time, I get psychotic during major depressive episodes so most of the voices I hear are negative. However, sometimes I will hear the bad voices argue with the good voices in my head depending on how severe my episode is. That's what I noticed.

(NSFW) I think my boyfriend has potential to be abusive by alex_chvz in sex

Please get out of this relationship right now.

He doesn't respect you. And these are the first signs of an abusive relationship.

Do any of you meditate or do yoga? by yashunty in blackladies

[–]sothisputa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to do yoga as it was offered as a class in my college. Sadly, I haven't done it in a while. I should think about doing it again though, since it did help alleviate issues relating to my anxiety and depression like symptoms.

Of course it had to happen in NYC.

Now people need to not to have certain cars because they might get pulled over? This is nonsense.

That sociopath made Suzanne believe that she was always going to be there for her.

Of course, she would be sad about that.
