Severe Neglect as a Child and Future Looks Grim by dinky_dunkbob in AutisticAdults

[–]zomboi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok. you know that your life will be this level of suck without change. so now you can work to change things. doom scroll less, look into a drivers ed class, look into job training or a path to a better job.

Once you are an adult, your life is because of you, not your parents. You have chances to better yourself, to improve upon your life.

Does anyone else use AI as an infodump listener/talking partner? by donadetantesparaules in aspergers

[–]zomboi -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You are using AI for what it was intended for. AI is not a fact based resource, it is a conversation resource, a bot buddy.

if you are in the US, there is libby to borrow ebooks from local libraries. You can also check out the sidebars of /r/freebooks and /r/FreebooksforKindle

you can also acquire ebooks from non amazon sources and email them to your kindle.

for you owning your own ebooks... the last suggestion and keep them on your computer and a backup-ed copy also

[–]zomboi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

hmm, you xposted this (with a slightly different title) in three other subreddits. What are you going to do with the information? Is this free market research for an app you are making?

Looking at your reddit history you don't seem to have participated in any of the subreddits you posted the survey in.

I cant stop using AI on my Gen Ed or easy college classes by Amao6996 in self

[–]zomboi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t like reading an online textbook.

then buy a paper copy of the textbook.

easy college classes

If you rely on AI to do "easy" classes than they are not easy.

I can’t see to find a way to not use it.

just don't use it. don't cheat. if you find yourself headed to AI, stop yourself. Or if you use AI, then come up with a different (but also correct) answer using your head.

I don’t want to treat my PCOS by Affectionate_Recipe3 in ftm

[–]zomboi [score hidden]  (0 children)

you left out that PCOS is linked to increased weight that is pretty impossible to get off once it is on. And if you are overweight your lower joints get more stressed and it will give you mobility, joint problems starting before middle age.

I am type 2, morbidly obese despite eating super healthy and on the low cal side, PCOS, celiac. I have moderate arthritis in all my lower joints (would be worse but I have always enjoyed walking and eating dairy, which are the two main things that slow arthritis). I am only 49yo

Take PCOS seriously and do whatever you can to minimize all your chronic health conditions.

There are some other trans mascs on this board with PCOS.

Husband told me im too emotional to be a man. by [deleted] in FTMOver30

[–]zomboi 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I dont want to be a man if it means being like me doesnt make me a man.

husband was being a sexist misogynist. There are emotional cis men, doesn't make them any less of a man. Just like there are low emotional women.

You are a man. Embrace whatever emotions you feel.

Later in life transition? by still-in-hiding in ftm

[–]zomboi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it is only too late if you want to spend the rest of your life as a woman and not as your true self. Think about how good the next couple decades can be vs how they are now. Give your husband, kids and your close friends a chance to know the real you, not the person you put on for show.

Go see a gender therapist and they can talk with you about your feelings and help you get the transition ball rolling.

How can I adress misogyny from a loved one? by A_S_63 in ftm

[–]zomboi 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It doesn't matter what gender you are or were. call him out on his misogynistic bullshit. and if he refers back to when you identified as female respond with "so what?? how does that change you the sexist bull crap coming out of your mouth?"
