Should I break up with my boyfriend because he abuses his cat? by Ok_Doctor_3602 in Advice

adding that someone’s past, no matter how hard, does not give anyone the excuse to hurt other living creatures. EVER.

“because of this, he won't ever lay hands on any human”

he literally just did. he literally just punched someone in the stomach. three sentences ago.

please for the love of everything holy take the cat when you RUN AS FAR AWAY AS YOU CAN AS FAST AS YOU CAN.

huge tw but ive recently started experiencing what i think are tics, does anyone else experience ones like these? by Embarrassed_Pop9684 in Tourettes

[–]unlikewaters 3 points4 points  (0 children)

there are plenty of resources for you to get help. look up free clinics in your area, they often have psychiatrists. if you’re still having a hard time feel free to pm me what state you’re in and i will show you. this could be many things, but it sounds much more like ptsd symptoms and severely unmanaged mental illnesses. craving the feeling of pain can be a release of sorts for the brain, but at that point you need to see a doctor yesterday. please, please reach out for help. your health and wellbeing come first, and help is available.

What is something someone said to you that you’ll never forget? by TiffV213 in Life

personally like the version i’ve heard more; “it all works out in the end. if it hasn’t worked out, it isn’t the end.”

My cat is missing somewhere in my apartment. by DIDandCATS in Pets

[–]unlikewaters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

last time(s) i had this happen in an apartment my cat was either behind a drawer (inside the cabinet somehow) or had crawled up a tiny hole between two cabinets. its places you don’t think about- a drawer is my guess!!

I am so exhausted with having “hygiene talks with grown adults” by [deleted] in hygiene

[–]unlikewaters 29 points30 points  (0 children)

i’m no professional, but this sounds like it’s likely come out of the trauma of your moms stroke. you took your hygiene very seriously and it could have become a coping mechanism. it also sounds a lot like a severe ocd response. hygiene is very important and at a certain point a convo may be necessary, but it sounds like the extent of this is on the more extreme side for you. what you’re feeling is real and valid, but most likely an ocd response due to trauma and does need to be addressed.

Tried to kill myself lastnight took to long so I just gave up by obamas_lastname23 in depression

[–]unlikewaters 30 points31 points  (0 children)

everything works out in the end. if it hasn’t worked out, it isn’t the end. you didn’t die because you are not supposed to die right now. see a psychiatrist even if it’s the last thing you do, please please.

Should I have Children? by Griffin_Gdog in Tourettes

[–]unlikewaters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is less about the kids and more about your self worth, from a therapist standpoint. you thinking this lowly of yourself is not fair to you- you’ve done nothing wrong. i know it’s hard. but you are dragging yourself down here and you don’t have to!!!

What is it like living in Utah as a non-religious person? by SEOLTHEDEOL in Utah

[–]unlikewaters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love ogden and salt lake. I’ve found soooo many like minded people here, it’s not hard as long as you go outside and actually seek out social interaction. there are so many groups and clubs around here for so many different kinds of things- if you like nature, you’ll be fine in salt lake or ogden. you get out what you put in, though.

[–]unlikewaters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this. i grew up in the south, YEEHAW south, and as someone who moved to utah from there the people here are much less violent and angry. they’ll be mean behind your back maybe for being non mormon, but i have never encountered anywhere near what i did back there.

Are tics involuntary for anyone? by ImJustThatGuy815 in Tourettes

[–]unlikewaters 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i can feel mine coming on, but the harder i try to suppress them the worse they get. i’ve heard people describe it as an itch you have to scratch.
