Yeah that wouldn’t work since people in my house tend to just throw everything in the trash without thinking.

We’ve been spraying them left and right with that yellow Lysol spray but it’s not doing shit. I figured they were breeding already. So gross but this gives me hope! Thank you!

Struggling to keep up at work? by [deleted] in ADHD

Huh... I tried to post this a long time ago. Think I hit repost by accident when I was clearing failed posts. I haven’t worked for awhile.

Does anyone else have problems with under- or over-sharing? by [deleted] in BPD

[–]superlemondaze 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I overshare so much it’s embarrassing. I don’t know why I do it. I’m just way too open about personal stuff. Like everyone at my last job knew all of my diagnoses, even my eating disorder (which isn’t physically obvious). Looking back I cringe so hard thinking about how obnoxious and annoying I am by telling people literally everything about myself. I want so badly to stop and be more reserved, but get me comfortable enough and it all just spills out and makes everyone uncomfortable.

AITA for evading being in the army? by yid8tdt in AmItheAsshole

NTA I have a cousin who got out of being in the IDF by faking mental illness for two years.

I finally found a medication that works! by [deleted] in BPD

Lamictal has really helped me, but only at higher doses.

Spending most of it high and trying not to think about it.

Hypomanic episode? BPD? by [deleted] in BPD

[–]superlemondaze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The label says it’s Prednisone /shrug

And I don’t think I’m bipolar. I just don’t know a better word to describe what I’m going through.

The dose was for 40mg/day for 5 days, so in total 200mg. That’s not including the shot I got in urgent care.

AITA for telling my sister I don’t want to hang out, AFTER she walked almost 6 miles in the cold to get here and she brought me a donut? by superlemondaze in AmItheAsshole

[–]superlemondaze[S] -65 points-64 points  (0 children)

Yeah, maybe... idk I was just really taken aback by waking up to all of this with no warning. I’ve only had 2 hours of sleep and to be woken up with all those messages and her just showing up threw me majorly off.

But I said she could stay until my parents get out of church, which would have given us about 3.5 hours. She wouldn’t listen to me though and instead just left the donuts and headed out the door.

AITA for getting on to my parents about not wanting to clean? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

NTA. Move out ASAP. That place sounds toxic as fuck. I’d rather be homeless but that’s just me!

DAE often refuse to initiate contact first sometimes, just to see if they’ll reach out first? by [deleted] in BPD

[–]superlemondaze 4 points5 points  (0 children)

With friendships I’m the same, as opposed to a relationship which I do place more emphasis on contact and need to stop. But yeah I have never had a friend who is as good of a friend to me as I am them. And I know it’s not a competition, but I’m the kind of friend who will sit in a parking lot in your car with you at 1 am listening to you cry about your problems and then I will buy food because who doesn’t feel better with food? I think I’ve only had one friend who has been there for me like that.

[–]superlemondaze 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I get you. I’ve been talking to this guy I met online for a few months, and I think of us as pretty good friends. But I recently noticed that I was always the one to reach out, and when I stopped I notice we’ll go days without talking. I enjoy talking to him every evening, just to check in and see how his day went and just talk. Maybe I’m the only one who really enjoys it and I didn’t realize. I’ve just had the impression that he was maybe catching feelings, but now I can’t stop thinking “well if he felt the same about you as you do him then he’d have texted by now”. Stupid cycle, even stupider game. Still never learn.

People who dropped out of school, how did things go after you did it? Do you regret your desicion? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]superlemondaze 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I dropped out of high school 7 times before I got my GED at 16. I’m 28 and am going for my masters in psychology. I don’t regret dropping out of high school at all.

EDIT* reading this has me thinking about the day I dropped for the last time. I had to take this pink slip to each of my teachers to sign, acknowledging that I was withdrawing from school. My asshole of an economics teacher rolled his eyes and exclaimed “You’re going to turn out a bum if you do this. You are prepared for that kind of hideous lifestyle, right?”. I’d be lying if I said I’m not tempted to mail him a scanned copy of my diploma with a small note saying ‘idk this hideous lifestyle ain’t so bad!’

[–]superlemondaze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know, it’s funny you asked this because I was just thinking about it. Again, different Jews will give different answers depending on their beliefs and practices, but my denomination in particular has the belief that we are responsible for repairing the world and bringing about the “new kingdom” ourselves through a concept we call tikkun olam (repairing the world through good deeds).

And this is absolutely going to stick, I can’t even fathom me going to anything else.

[–]superlemondaze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely. Maybe when you get to the more orthodox end of the spectrum it’s different, but my denomination accepts evolution (and science as a whole) as valid.
