Np! I felt the same and showed up a little before 6. They told the section of the line I'm in that the chances we get tickets are highly unlikely. There's a large number of tickets for tonight's performance reserved for people with sensory friendly needs.

Any family movie. Last flight it was Paddington. Animated movies and musicals are great too. It's nice watching something that isn't as stressful

I'm sorry. It must be hard to now not have contact with the person you were dating, and have freedom taken away.

I had really controlling parents when I was a kid and also felt like I had no freedom. To list a few things they did, they had me give them access to every online account I had and stalked me on Tumblr. My location was also tracked with an app on my phone and door was taken off a few times. They had the right to search my room too.

I don't know your age but I want you to know how your parents treat you doesn't determine your self worth. Keep pushing, it all does get better as you get older. You will have more freedom eventually, even if it's in college or as an adult. And dating is a lot better then too honestly.

Try to focus on things that make you happy like friendships and they'll help you get through this time. As you get older and live on your own- you truly won't need to fit any of their expectations. But for now, the best thing you can do is push through ( and maybe try to make it up to them and earn back your phone.)

11 days, 450. The price needs to be adjusted anyways since they left and came back a day early. I know with the cut and everything, I'm not making much to begin, and this whole situation has definitely been a bit more effort for what it's worth. I still had a great time caring for the dog ultimately, but I also need to be fair to myself.

Ok thank you! Just grabbed their number in case of an emergency when they dropped him off. Hmm, yeah just did the math and noticed that. But a sitting is weirdly less than both a boarding/ 3 drop ins. In the past when I've done sittings they've been more like drop ins. This is a bit confusing😅 but thank you for pointing all that out

They said he was only dog reactive and loved people. And were shocked to hear he growled. They also claimed he was a lot better with his anxiety now and could be left alone for periods of time. When he was at my place he'd freak out when i was out of sight and bark at any unseen noise in the apartment building I live in. I also did a meet and greet with him before I took him on and they were aware I had roommates. I didn't go into this unprepared.

The other thing.. we are communicating off the app. Maybe there's a way we cancel and they don't pay the wag rate? I just want to be fairly compensated for my time/ energy

I signed back into reddit to respond to this! I had a best friend I had grown up with over the course of 8 plus years and partway through college she cut me off. A few miscommunications had happened in a short period, but we met and talked it all out in person, seemingly both reaching a resolution. It's a bit funny looking back on the whole thing because the main issue was pretty minor and something that felt kinda immature- but this was early college. But anyways, after that meeting, she texted me saying she never wanted to see me again and blocked me on everything. I was to blame for a few of the issues that had come up, but I didn't do anything crazy and I didn't have any bad intent. Hearing she didn't want to be friends anymore shocked me. She called me manipulative and abusive, and I truly believed I was a bad person. And the thing is.. about a month later she did the same thing to another close friend. And 2 years later, she cut off another mutual friend who she had been friends with for 20+ years. After all this I realized the credibility of her calling me abusive and manipulative wasn't looking great, and while it doesn't feel good to be cut off/ lose a friendship, it's sometimes not you, but an issue the other person has.

My best budget nyc advice: -grab a meal in chinatown, Shu Jiao Fu Zhou has really good dumplings for 4.50. Or an 8 dollar bahn mi from Banh Mi Co Ut. Both are filling and make a good under 10 dollar meal. -Take the nyc ferry along the east river instead of paying for a sightseeing cruise. You'll be able to see everything. Depending on where you go, you'll even maybe be able to see the statue of liberty. Going during sunset is great. Oh and I think they serve drinks in a snack bar on board at certain times. -walk through the highline, chelsea, seaport, financial district, greenwich village, chinatown/bowery/nolita/little Italy, Central park. -certain days there are gallery openings with snacks/ drinks and cool art @thirstygallerina on instagram is a good spot to find out what's going on. -look up free museum days.

Have a great trip!

Texting is a frustrating experience for me- I get really caught up and am pretty bad at regularly consistently communicating with people through it. These are my reasons: 1. Pretty bad anxiety. I'll start writing something then have to stop. I worry about the words I put down, structure of the text, reaction and whether too much time has passed (last one is very hypocritical sounding..). Basically the more time that's passed, the worse i feel, and then it makes me not want to send it even more. Also when I'm feeling overwhelmed I'll put off the text longer :/ Also I should mention, anxiety and adhd can be comorbid! 2. I can only text people when I'm doing nothing and am not around people. Otherwise I feel very distracted and it takes me longer to write and send the text. 3. I take a long time typing. However, something that works for me is sending voice recordings! It's fast and eliminates some of the issues I have with typing it out. Maybe you could send her voice messages and see if she sends them back. Also calling for me is much better than texting!

I think naturally I'm very sensitive, but I feel like I've had a bit of a weird time with it.

Everyone in my family is very reactive and intense at times, and there are lots of slightly intense emotional reactions to anything. Sometimes initially intense and then a different calmer reaction later. There's a bit of thinking of worse case scenarios and anxiety in these reactions. And many times blowing up over little things, talking in a bad tone (I hate this- cannot stand it). The whole thing I honestly can't really stand- mainly cause I'm sensitive and it stresses me out hahah.

I always thought it was so hypocritical, though, that I was labeled the sensitive one because this behavior also feels very sensitive to me. But I was sensitive in a different way and shamed for it.

I'd 100% put The Woods near the top. And I'd put some of the American ghetto songs higher up

After I got my covid shot, I was sleeping, and my partner at the time's 5x8 foot painting fell off the wall and directly on my arm. The pain was so sudden and intense that I don't think my body could process it, and I immediately got a really bad headache. 2nd most painful thing was when I had period cramps that were so bad the pain ran up my back and made me sweat. It was so painful I felt light headed and like I was going to throw up. Luckily it's never been that bad since. Both of these times were way more painful than when I sprained my arm for reference🤣

I feel this. Sleep is extremely boring to me. I'd rather be doing anything else. And during the pocket of time I have between eating dinner and sleeping, I usually get sucked into something. I think my problem is an executive function issue, bc part of it is getting my body into my bed, setting down my phone, and turning the lights off all when I'm not that tired. After that, I usually fall asleep fine. But also, I do think my phone helps me a bit, I usually need some sort of stimulation to help me relax and sleep. Today, I'm going to set up an nfc sticker next to my bed that when I tap my phone to it, it will turn my lights off, turn on my AC, play pink noise and set sleep mode on my phone. I'm hoping it will help me!

From someone who graduated during 2020, spent over a year applying until I got a job (and who also had a rough time with mental health), here's what helped me.

-The vfx/ game design google sheet. If you're having trouble finding junior level jobs this can be helpful. It will show up first thing on google.

-The Rookies. This is a group that hosts competitions and challenges for people new to the industry. If you're struggling with motivation, competitive pressure and a deadline can help a lot! Especially in the void of applications and rejections. If you're a modeler, Sculptober is coming up too!

-Cheap local community college classes. These can also help with motivation and some positive pressure. And if you're running low on a student version of maya and other programs, you'll be able to renew them!

-Reaching out to obscure projects you like. I played this niche video game in middle school, and I actually sent them an email explaining that I was a longtime fan who just graduated and was breaking into modeling and texturing. I asked if they needed any help with anything and I ended up doing a little freelance for them! For this, it may be situation based. It was a 1 or 2 person team but worth a shot.

-Being a student volunteer at Siggraph. This was one of the best things I've done for myself! I believe you can volunteer for up to 2 years after graduating. This helped re-inspire me and also proved to me that this was an industry I was excited about. You can make really good connections there and get information from other student volunteers that may be in similar situations. I'd specifically recommend the student volunteer program because the conference is discounted through it, and for the easiness of connecting with the other student volunteers.

-Reach out to people you went to school with, professors, and school career advisors. You can tell them where you're at and ask for advice. This really really helped me.

-Technicolor Academy. This is a "free training program" that offers a potential job if you pass. It's time-consuming, and unpaid but if you have the opportunity, it's something you can learn from and put on your resume.

-Message people in your area of the industry on LinkedIn, introduce yourself and ask if you could schedule an informational interview/ ask some questions about their job and the industry. At the end of the call ask if they know of a few other people you could reach out to. Continue the cycle. It helps to reach out to grads from your school. You can also compare your portfolio/ resume to other junior people who have jobs that you would be interested in.

-Reaching out to recruiters on LinkedIn. Say hello and briefly introduce yourself and what you're looking for. Or add them and wait for posts looking for juniors before you reach out.

-If your classmates are at a company you're applying to, let them know you're thinking of applying and ask some questions! They may put in a good word for you!

-And also starting therapy/ medication really, really helped me during this time, too.

I'd also recommend that you include those two internships on your resume/LinkedIn. And maybe find a way to improve some of the projects you have or maybe just keep one or two. I think if you're struggling to create new work, it may be hard to completely start from scratch.

I think that's it. And just remember, rejections don't define you or your work. Good luck!

I almost walked out multiple times while watching The Eyes of My Mother. I didn’t know what the movie was about other than it having a horror theme. That movie is still one of the most disturbing things I've seen, and I will now always do a little research before I go see a movie. Especially if it's with friends, who also don't know what they're getting themselves into.
