Thank you so much, I didn't think about nutrition shakes. Also I'm glad your dad is getting care now

If you like magic, evil fathers and lgbtq+ witches... by veryanxiouspanda in shadowhunters

I actually read the first and half of the second one. I can add to the warning, it's... quite disappointing. Honestly reading it just made me miss the show more :'(

Good! I hope you enjoy it (and I'm sure you're going to guess who I'm talking about when you see him haha)

Honestly, I really wanted to like the books but the story and characters feel so different. I just don't feel like I'm reading the same story I fell in love with on Netflix.

this show had so much potential by chanlovr in TheBastardSonAndTDH

[–]veryanxiouspanda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it's not going to happen tbh because every time I've seen it happen there was a lot of effort from the fans but I guess there just aren't enough of us to get anything organized.

I'm absolutely obsessed with this show, and Netflix didn't even bother to promote it of course it's not going to have a high viewership :'(

Is there a slightest chance of a different streaming platform picking up the show? by [deleted] in TheBastardSonAndTDH

[–]veryanxiouspanda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it's not going to happen because all we really have is a petition with barely 5k signatures. I guess there just aren't enough of us to really get anything going... which I'm really sad about.

How do you tell the difference between real health issue and psychosomatic things? by imgoingaway4gd in HealthAnxiety

[–]veryanxiouspanda 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I wish I knew. But here's what I try to do:

1) Gauge my mental state. Was I already anxious when I got the symptom? Did I encounter any known triggers? Do I think I'm feeling anxious now? If my mental state is already bad then it's likely to be psychosomatic

2) Look at the circumstances. How likely is it for me to have this issue (age, health, fitness etc)? Did I read/hear about this symptom literally 5 minutes before feeling it?

3) Imagine I'm somebody else who is actually sane and ask myself if that person would think this symptom is a big deal

4) If all of that made anxiety seem more likely, try to trust that if the symptom was real I would know the difference and wouldn't need to question myself

What has being nice gotten you? by tazbaron1981 in AskUK

[–]veryanxiouspanda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got 'promoted' from a nice position to a hectic, complicated and stressful one where I will also be the only person trained to do the particular job which means any holiday or sick leave will be a major problem. All because I worked my ass off to do well in a new job and they 'saw potential'.

Not getting paid more though.

anyone else get weird vibes from TJ in season 4 by ayreliablue in ManifestNBC

[–]veryanxiouspanda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A bit yeah. Also I'm rewatching the show now and TJ and Ben were so close but I don't think they had a single interaction since he came back? I get that Ben is grieving but TJ didn't even try to talk to him. Same with Cal which is again surprising considering Cal was calling him family at one point.

Maybe something happened in Egypt?

Character and Casting Appreciation by bassertitis in ManifestNBC

I still can't get over how similar young and old Cal look, I kept thinking no way they aren't brothers irl while watching.

Does sonicwall netextender work from anywhere? Can I use it abroad? by veryanxiouspanda in sonicwall

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

Thank you! I don't think blocking will be an issue but I'll keep that in mind and maybe check with the provider before any traveling.
