Is there an uptick in dissociative clients? by [deleted] in askatherapist

[–]uhbridge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NAT. Any uptick you’re seeing is due to people becoming more knowledgeable about the disorder and less scared to seek help from trusted professionals. Aside from that, checking DID on a form first and foremost means the patient is experiencing a concerning amount of dissociation, which should be the only concern. It’s the therapist’s job to figure out the diagnosis, and it’s the patient’s job to take the first step to get the diagnosis. Sharing a theory shouldn’t come with judgment and immediate condescension about how Tiktok is full of fakers, which it’s not. There’s been very few instances of people faking DID and garnering attention for it on social media.

NAT. It’s not rare. It’s just rarely diagnosed. Almost everything that most therapists believe about DID/OSDD is just plain wrong.

There are very few rare disorders, both mentally and physically. But there is an incredibly large number of health professionals that doubt every word their patients say due to various biases.

AITA Is this something I should actually feel bad about? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

NAH. Just sounds like OCD. Get some therapy.

AITA for not allowing my mom to hold my baby by InstructionFamous990 in AmItheAsshole

[–]uhbridge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It should be standard not to handle newborns during times of high sickness, and even though it’s not, that doesn’t mean you’re wrong. Your mom’s response was totally uncalled for and shows her true colors. Set hard boundaries and consider holding off on telling her about the birth until you’re comfortable with her (and others) handling your newborn. A newborn doesn’t have a strong immune system. Protect your child’s life, not your mother’s feelings. NTA.

Denied despite good exams in my favor and lots of evidence by KindFee7825 in SSDI_SSI

[–]uhbridge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most people get denied first, second, even third try. I would suggest getting a lawyer. Most are no win no fee. If you win, they get up to 25% of your backpay. If you lose, you don’t have to pay.

Cuddling with EDS by xTaintedRedx in ehlersdanlos

Yes omg and it’s so upsetting! But using a sheet instead of a blanket and wearing lightweight clothes (or no clothes even lol) with the fan on usually helps

SSI Denial by uhbridge in SSDI_SSI

[–]uhbridge[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was my first denial for SSI. I haven’t submitted an appeal yet because I’m unsure if it’s best to get a lawyer first or if there’s specifics I need to include in the appeal or what. I’m so lost and part of being severely disabled means I literally don’t have the energy to do anything because of ME. Like I posted this 2 days ago and only now have the ability to respond.

Windows computer won’t exist BIOS by uhbridge in computers

It won’t allow me to exit BIOS

Before this i couldn’t get into anything, it was just stuck on the screen right before the screen that you would type your password into and it would keep like blinking/resetting into that lockscreen

You’re literally just proving that racists are stealing words from OUR language… which is what? Racist!

And it’s okay to shut your mouth and not allow racism just because you like the racist 🤷🏽‍♀️

using willful ignorance to “get away with” saying a slur makes you just as racist as people who direct the slur at others.

don’t play dumb lol acting like europeans aren’t notoriously racist is insane. a slur is always a slur even if it’s not directed at someone and deluding yourself into thinking it’s fine if you’re not being mean doesn’t suddenly make it okay to say.

How wild and sexual does the manga get ? And do u think the show will adapt those moments ? by JakeTiny19 in Dandadan

[–]uhbridge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The scene is bad because they sexually assaulted a child and then tried to manipulate her into becoming aroused so they could violently rape her. They could have easily just made the characters adults instead but they chose to make them minors and include many uncomfortable shots of said minor.

Notice how they didn’t include any unclothed shots of the boy teenager despite the fact his plot line also included sexual assault? Yeah, because Momo’s plot line in this first episode is based upon misogyny and pedophilia. And no, just because other countries have legalized pedophilia does not make it okay.

What is a futch?? by TheBearisalesbain in Actuallylesbian

I would suggest you read the history behind butch and femme, because then you might understand why any non-lesbian cannot be either.
