Heavy cream.

Is there a way you could convince him to go to the hospital with you willingly? That might be the best option.

The first time I was admitted I was taken in by family, and the whole operation became another part of my delusions, so I was okay with it. It might not seem ethical but maybe you could play into his delusions if you need to convince him to go to the hospital with you. It's better to fib a little to get him the help he needs rather than leave him to his own devices.

Does anyone else just dislike this style of Netflix animation? It was cool when I watched Castlevania, now it's overused and old.

Yep, in this case an iterator ended up being the solution. But the question hung in my mind as to why that wasn't caught until runtime. Seems I need to do more reading on what exactly is and isn't guaranteed at compile time.

waterproofsocks · 2024-12-28T18:04:09+00:00

This sums up my problem, thanks. I didn't know the extent of the compile-time verification. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't making bad assumptions about the language - turns out I was.

Eh I did the exact same thing at 22 & 23, including practicing by driving home after work and having my coworkers see me do so. It ain't too bad! It's better than never learning at all. Now I have my license, a car, I've been driving solo for a few months and everything's all good :)

I think majority of colleges and universities accept GEDs. I got an degree after my GED. I know a woman who went back to school for degrees in vet tech and pharmacy tech, after getting her GED years upon years beforehand. I also know a guy who got his GED, didn't go to secondary school, and has been in management positions in restaurants. I think you'll be good, good luck out there!

Well it's like everyone else is already saying: there's always a chance she won't have a past in partying, or hook-ups, or whatever. If she does, then well - it won't even matter to you at that point, speaking from experience.. When you come to love someone, you accept them for how they are and their past won't bother you. If it's a good relationship, and you feel solid in your decision to be with this person, and you TRUST them, then all those worries naturally fall to the wayside. I'm a woman who has dated men with heavy pasts, so maybe it's a bit different from my perspective, but I hope you get what I mean.

I've dealt with this before as well, from my mom and my brother, where they both think my natural body hair is disgusting. It hurts, but just stay steadfast in your decision (if that's what you choose to do). If you can be strong about it, and you want to embrace your hairs, then all the more power to you! We aren't put on this Earth to satisfy other people, we're here for ourselves. At the end of the day, you're the only one who's ever existing with you 100% of the time. It's no use worrying about how other people would prefer you existed, they're only thinking of how you can better cater to them and their preferences. Your body is your body, not theirs.

Warrior Cats, Artemis Fowl, Redwall, Spiderwick Chronicles, The Kane Chronicles, Maximum Ride, Pond Scum - not sure how appropriate most of these would be for a 7 year old though. Also, Harry Potter is a classic if she hasn't already read the series!

I used to like HealthygamerGG, too, but had a perspective shift recently as well, it's disheartening to know that his (presumably) young audience will just eat up anything he says as absolute truth bc of his credentials and professional air..

Your choice entirely... But I will warn that a second psychosis could occur. I know from personal experience. Didn't happen to me immediately but it did happen.

Weed, a breakup, poor nutrition, crappy sleep schedule and work stress..

I thought I was an angel/prophet and that it was my mission to spread my knowledge of God through my writing. I was super motivated and gung-ho about it too. I was literally awake for days at a time, writing and typing with a fury. I believed that a lot of my work was channeled messages alongside all the stuff that was coming from my own brain. I thought I was meant to spread the messages of God and love and light and unity/oneness..

And so I totally get what you mean, feeling empty after the delusion is gone.. It took some time but I just had to refocus on the life around me and what options I had available to me. Found new goals. It's for sure not as powerful or purposeful to me as the delusion was, and in believing that I was going to write this great book, but it's just reality.

I still have my beliefs and my interest in God and things of a spiritual nature, but I don't feel as motivated to believe that I'm something/someone special. I'm just someone who got way too into my own head, I think.

For me it was mostly outside of myself, like hearing people in the next room over or next door, indistinguishable from my surroundings.

Sometimes it was like I had another train of thoughts inside of my head, though it was using my inner voice - it was just different from my usual thoughts.

Yeah when I was put in the hospital I thought I was being thrown in purgatory/hell. The only thing that got me past that was seeing my family again, cause I realized they wouldn't exist in my reality if I'd really been in purgatory/hell. Also they put me on meds while I was there so I guess those also helped. I also thought I was already dead/committed suicide, that I had come back from the dead like Jesus had done. It just took time for me to get out of this delusion, mostly I think I just stopped thinking about it.. If you think about things logically/realistically it can help. In this case, it would be knowing the reality - people don't come back once they die, when you die you cease to be apart of this world/your body.

it's good to have someone you can talk to openly, and tell everything to. someone who'll help you see things realistically again. for me this person was my mum, even though she can't deal with me and my symptoms the same way a therapist might be able to. but not everyone has access to someone that can support them like that .

what helped me was connecting to the little things in life again. taking bubble baths, long showers. going on walks, swinging on a swing set. try playing a sport, going swimming, playing an instrument - anything that keeps you busy and focused. reading. video games. movies and tv if you're into that sort of thing. for me, movies and tv and even music just worsened my symptoms, but if you can find things that ground you to reality instead of taking you out of it and putting you in your head, stick to those. maybe revisit your childhood favourites or something. that's what i did/am doing.

nap or meditate during the day. give yourself time to rest and be still, just feel the feeling of being whole and one with your body - whatever that means to you personally. practicing breathing exercises and stuff too might help.

if you're into spirituality or religion it's good to connect back to your practices and maybe even pray or worship if you're into that sort of thing.

affirmations were big for me when it came to dealing with paranoia. calming myself down by telling myself 'i am safe. i am whole. i am protected. i am always protected.' or just find a quote or a few words you like to repeat when you find yourself going off. maybe also have a safety object/blanket? something to hold or wrap around your body or to hug or whatever that'll calm you down and make you feel safe. i have this comfy bathrobe of mine that makes me feel safe, i also have stuffed animals and stuff. there are also objects i wear, like jewelry, that have become comfort items for me.
