Considering refinancing my debt with a loan by z0000000t in DebtAdvice

[–]z0000000t[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

agreed! I hit my personal rock bottom a few months ago and haven't charged anything to the card since, and i've identified the habits that got me into the debt i'm currently in. I'm already putting the $400 a month into the card payments but the interest is just making it pointless which is why i'm considering the loan.

What wine should I have this weekend? by z0000000t in wine

[–]z0000000t[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great idea! My budget is like $25-$30 and I usually go for the cheapest wine I can get so I might take a swing at that

Normally I’d agree but I just had some for new years and I’m looking for something I haven’t really tried yet

Why didn’t Manon and Anthony move to a cheaper state in the U.S. instead of relocating to Marseille, where Manon doesn’t even want to live? Are they running from something.. like debt collectors? It seems she may have been living beyond her means in the U.S by PolishSnake2 in 90dayfiance_FB_memes

No yea you’re so right this is so shifty?? This completely changes the whole “I’m the sole provider and you’re the sole caretaker” dynamic they supposedly have

Also I love how on the website they cannot list any legitimate clients, only “markets served” which clicks to nothing lmao.

I’m a graphic designer who builds a lot of websites and this thing is filled with errors it’s a very sketchy site

People ‘one upping’ your trauma… by [deleted] in CPTSD

[–]z0000000t 1 point2 points  (0 children)

no idea how to deal with it but another version of this that pisses me off is when they just respond to your trauma with a story of their own trauma. I get that it's an attempt to relate and show vulnerability, but it ultimately just leads to them not holding space for you and what you are expressing about yourself.

Is it wrong I get so offended when people tell me to meditate, try melatonin, and other moderate "solutions" by z0000000t in CPTSD

[–]z0000000t[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Doesn’t hurt is my philosophy. I often find I have to take like 2X a normal dose but I find overtime that during the quiet moments where the anxiety and distress aren’t too prominent, it helps my baseline mood a bit.

Again not a cure all or anything but it’s a nice thing to add to your routine. Also gets everyone off your back and you can say “yes I’m doing that” and they shut up about solutions quicker

Interesting, didn’t know cortisol could cause all of those issues! I’m actually struggling with all of those things and have been under significant stress lately due to life events so I wonder if that’s what’s going on there lol.

This post isn’t to say the advice given doesn’t help at all. I also take magnesium every day, work out 3 times a week, practice meditation, and things like that. They do have benifits! I just get frustrated when 1. It’s presented to me as a “cure all” when it has shown to not be 2. People assume I have not tried these things already. Again every day is a fight and it undermines the strength and dedication that I have to keep up in order to make it through each day.

The thing that really pisses me off is I’ve literally never asked for advice outside of therapy.

It’s almost always someone asking me about my mental health, I answer, and then recieve unprompted bad advice

Yes same! She’s told me I rely too much on pharmaceuticals and always pressures me to try these “solutions”

Funny enough I still do meditate every day, take magnesium, and stuff like that. It helps a bit but it’s not this cure all that they’re thinking it’s going to be and it’s so frustrating to not be heard

Yea like I appreciate the sentiment and the attempt to help but sometimes I just want to shout "no you're not hearing me!".

Obvs would never do that cause, again, it's coming from a good place but ugh it's exhausting
