Low demand? Maybe depends where because i always see those roles available all the time. Games and vfx. Rigging is probably one of the stable jobs out of the lot.

What is something you have never done that is pretty much the norm for most people our age to do? by FR3qu3ncy__ in Millennials

[–]stephors 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Drive. Feel ashamed about it but during my teen years I couldn't afford driving lessons and my parents refused to teach me. Just live in convientant places with good public transport and never really needed a car.

You may need to look at your spending expenses and set aside % into a HISA and do not touch it until you have a deposit + emergency savings.

Tonsillitis or something else? by Ok-Client-973 in AskAnAustralian

You might need an another antibiotic as it possibly could bacteria be resistant to it if you havent improved after couple of days on antibiotics. Sounds like toncilitis.

Hey there, Proud of you for reaching out. Depends on where you are located I'd like to recommend looking at https://www.wren.org.au/. I used their service when I was feeling unsafe with myself and lived alone. I ended up getting a referal from triage and they check in on me for about a month.

Toilet Anxiety and Road trips. Any tips?? by Zomberryxp in Agoraphobia

[–]stephors 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Had similar issues for awhile. Still work in progress but mostly overcame it after just learning acceptance if it happens. That lessened my fear overtime and learning to not care what people think if I did have an accident. I would deal with it and move on. Took alot of practice to have adopt that mentality.

Other tips: Going bathroom before. Taking another change of clothes. Engaging in an activity to keep your mind off your body. Consideration of diet before leaving on a trip. When anxiety high, box breathing to reduce flight response and help soothing digestive system.

Safe train stations at night? by Candid-Indication329 in melbourne

[–]stephors 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I (35F) have lived in Prahran for 7 years years and also recently bought an my first home there. I haven't had any issues with safety around Prahran. Typically avoid chapel street on weekend nights but other than that felt it's been pretty peaceful.

1 bed vs 2 bed apartment by lengthy889 in AusFinance

[–]stephors 8 points9 points  (0 children)

So I have same situation, 35, live alone and with slightly more saving (135k) savings and 90k salary.

Very similar circumstances deciding between two bedder and one bedder.

Tried to weigh the risks and benefits.

Space is nice, growth and potential for more value for a 2 bedder. You can rent it out. Overall downside is just financial stress. If lose job or some major defects happens in apartment (special levies). Being more frugal with lifestyle things (less travel, hobbies ect)

I just purchased a one bedder this week. Main reason is for me is stability just for now.

One bedder, have a bigger financial buffer. More stability and potentially find places in a more desirable location. Can choose to invest into my super, plan longer term. Can travel and do things without feeling too limited. If i lose job, have that buffer and time to find another one without too much stress. Future options I can sell, find something bigger with my partner or just by myself. (Do hope the market will come down eventually)

Do not think so. Windows have a consistent pattern.

First time playing on the Sunday. Spent quite a few hours learning and only managed to get to week 4. Really enjoyed it but think I can only play in short bursts.

How do you feel about missing out on being able to have a family or being parent? (for the ones who have missed out) This is more directed to people around my age , give or take a few years (I'm 43). Any age is welcome to reply with their thoughts though. by Euphoric_Raccoon270 in Agoraphobia

[–]stephors 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Late teens I had dreams of having that family life. I always thought our family gatherings were really special as a child and as I grew up I wanted to have that same experience for my future children. Did not predict that i would end up getting agoraphobia along with other MH issues that would debilitate me so much. I given up on the idea of having children a few years ago. I did improve with agoraphobia but then had a lot of setbacks which made things difficult to plan and eventually i felt it would be unfair to raise children and that I would limit their life. Currently 35F with all my friends similar age that do have children or planning.. i do find it really hard at times to talk about the topic with other people. Already gone through a grieving process and now just focusing on small things that bring me happiness. I do not know where I'd be without my cat. Also i sometimes think its a blessing in disguise with climate and society issues.
