2023.04.01 13:19 Ryu_Kurobane I got left behind by my friends for a trip
I'll write down a betrayal that I experienced by my friends that I considered close yesterday, since it's been a while I felt this sad emotion related to friends.
At my university, an outdoor club organized a Joshua Tree weekend trip (3 day 2 night). 4 members had to pay $80 and 6 non members had to pay $145 for tickets (Max 10 students can join). The club posted this event a month ago. One of my friends, I'll name her VL, found this event, messaged it in the group chat, and asked us if any of us were down. I was the only one who replied to VL and responded that I'm interested in going. We continued to invite other friends in person but all of them were reluctant to say that they're down since it's still a month away.
A week before the trip, VL told me that since it's only the 2 of us from our friend group are going and she's been busy for a while, she decides not to go anymore. I also decided not to go since she was the only student I knew that was going to the trip (I knew the organizer but we only talked with once or twice).
HOWEVER, just a day before the trip (3/31), VL went to a happy hour with her friends in the group chat that was hosted near the university. I couldn't go because I was still working. At the event, the organizer of the trip also went to the happy hour and he asked if any of them were down to go to the trip. He was able to easily invite them since they were friends since last semester.
FYI, this paragraph is just my assumption but the organizer made a ticket where my friends only have to pay $25 for a single day/night JUST FOR THEM. My friends all agreed and they bought the discounted tickets at the spot, including VL. The number of discounted tickets were 4 and the number of students that the organizer invited were also 4 so the discounted tickets sold out immediately.
COUPLE HOURS LATER, VL informed that she changed her mind and she's going with 3 of her friends. This is her text message:
"Hey! So Super last minute by my friends decided they wanted to go to Joshua Tree trip so I'll go as well. But we are only going for one night and coming back Sunday. Did you still wanna go? The only issue is the single day ticket is sold out."
I thought "Bruh, what the heck!? why did you buy the tickets without telling me?! Why the hell would I pay $100 for myself?! (the organizer also discounted the 3 day non member ticket from $145 to $100).
I immediately reached out to the organizer asking if I can still buy the single day ticket. And he said no, it's all sold out. So I responded to VL saying "I can't go bc I don't want to pay for the 3 day ticket since you guys are leaving on Sat and I'll have to stay for the trip on Sunday/Monday without anyone I know. I know the organizer but we're not that close". So I decided not go to the trip that I was eager to go.
BUT there was another twist that I found out. The trip was posted on the university's event website and you can see who's attending the trip. When VL messaged, 4 of my friends (including VL) were going and the single day ticket was already sold out. But I checked back again after couple hours and I found out that another friend (NN) in our group was in the attendees' list. I confirmed with NN on what type of ticket she bought and she also bought the single day ticket, EVEN THOUGH THE BUTTON FOR SINGLE DAY TICKET WAS DISABLED ON THE WEBSITE. NN was also close with the organizer so he allowed NN to buy the single day ticket just for her, even though I asked the organizer if I can also buy the single day ticket like 2 hours ago before NN bought it.
After I found this "plot twist", sadness and anger filled my emotion.

- Shouldn't VL have messaged me when they were buying the ticket at the happy hour? If VL told the organizer that there's another student, who's not here at the moment, that's interested in going to this trip, he might've increased the number of the single day ticket.
- Why the heck did the organizer favored someone? Today, 9 people will be going to this trip and NN bought the single day ticket AFTER it got sold out. The max is 10 people SO WHY CAN'T I ALSO BUY THE SINGLE DAY TICKET? The club is already losing money from Airbnb since they discounted the tickets to get people to join.
- Why the heck my friends who didn't respond at all or waited to respond until THE DAY BEFORE can go to the trip and me, who responded like a month ago, get left behind?!

2023.04.01 13:19 NoLaw4713 Day by day experience starting bupropion
I just started taking Bupropion recently. I was nervous to start because I’ve read a few things, and also the pharmacist reacted in a way that did not leave me assured. When I put the prescription in, he asked me if I’ve taken the medication before and warned me “it comes with a lot of side-effects, more so than the other antidepressants”.
I wanted to share my experience of the side effects starting out. I’ve taken a day by day account of the first five weeks because I was looking for this kind of information to put me at ease before I started to take it. There are a few accounts on Reddit, but I thought I would add my own experience in quite a bit more detail for those seeking this information.
Of course this comes with all the forewarnings: This is not prescriptive. Each persons experience will be different. Etc etc. I’m wishing to only provide this as a guide.
Also, to note I have had chronic insomnia since the age of 12.
23/02 Reduced appetite Slight head woozing cleaned apartment
24/02 Returned to normal, ate a lot, no energy
28/02 Difficulty sleeping day 2 of double dose
01/03 No appetite
02/03 (1 week mark) Mistake not taking 2
03/03 Reduced appetite, still low energy and motivation. Slight aggression/short temper
04/03 Reduced appetite, slight aggression. Gym, cleaned house, everything
05/03 Reduced appetite, slight aggression/short temper, much more motivation than before
8/03 Slight nausea in middle of day to extreme at night, didn’t vomit but felt like i wanted to No energy
9/03 (2 week mark) Extreme nausea, felt like vomiting. Nausea gets worse on an empty stomach? No energy
10/03 No nausea. Drinking and pissing a lot. Ate more No energy
11/03 No nausea. Drinking and pissing a lot. Appetite back No energy Maybe feeling a bit lighter
14/03 Wired and a bit gittery, no appetite
15/03 Wired and a bit gittery, no appetite Difficulty swallowing Difficulty sleeping
16/03 (3 week mark) Shallow breathing - asthma puffer helped Difficulty sleeping
17/03 A bit more active today Difficulty swallowing
18/03 More active again and really vibing music Difficulty swallowing
20/03 Difficulty swallowing
21/03 Shallow breathing
22/03 No sleep
23/03 No sleep
24/03 (4 week mark) No sleep
25/03 Slept from exhaustion
26/03 Sleep improving
27/03 More active and motivated Sleep better
29/03 Motivation high, appetite low
30/03 (5 week mark) Wanted to feel shit about my life and couldn’t
1/04 getting things done ive had on my to do list for a year
My thoughts are that I don’t believe bupropion has any greater side-effects than any other antidepressants, SSRIs like Zoloft, or any of the other popular ones. So in my opinion, I don’t understand why it’s a vilified (at least in Australia).
I am in A-type personality who relaxes by ticking things off of a to do list. Accomplishing tasks makes me feel better. Therefore I think an antidepressant that acts on dopamine, increasing motivation, is a really great option for people like me.
In conclusion, for me, it was a few days of nausea, quite a few days of having difficulty swallowing which was uncomfortable, and slightly more ongoing shortness of breath. I have an asthma puffer and that really helped me a lot. let’s give the severity of side-effects a 3 out of 10, not nearly as bad as I anticipated.
Unfortunately, at the five week mark, my appetite is in full swing and I haven’t experienced a reduction in appetite. And man, that really sucks because I was really looking forward to that so I can lose a bit of weight. But oh well, at least now I am a lot more consistent in going to the gym and I think I’m going to be a lot more consistent in meal preps as well.
I understand that that the therapeutic benefits like elevated mood, reduction in depressed mood, etc kick in after about week 6. I wouldn’t speak to that because it would truly be a different and unique experience for each person and far too difficult to articulate. I just wanted to share my experience of the side-effects in particular only.
Hope this helps those exploring this antidepressant.

2023.04.01 13:18 heartofag Is he trying to help me out or scam me somehow
I'm a student at CC, when I was leaving a study group a Vietnamese dude approached me asking for directions to the admissions office for his sister. He started talking about what I'm doing and money related things. He has told me that he is a banker next to a very prestigious university that is near me and tells me he can ask his mentor if he can mentor me. Now he's arranged a meeting over boba in a relatively safe spot next to the university. Is this some sort of new scam or is he genuinely trying to help me and should I go? If you have any other questions feel free to ask I'll answer asap

2023.04.01 13:15 BochechaY SLCC vs. MLCC Humidity Requirments
Hi All. Very specific question here, might be too specific to get help, but let me ask anyway.
Single Layer Ceramic Capacitors (SLCC) only required "Low Voltage Humidity" tests with conditions being 85C/85%RH/1.55V/240H per MIL-PRF-49464C. Most Multilayer Ceramic Capacitors (MLCC) requirements (Telecordia, Mil-Std etc.) Require 85C/85%RH/RWV(well over 1.55V always)/1000H. The conditions in the requirement for MLCC are much more harsh than SLCC which I find strange. MLCC has basically the same materials, but much thinner dielectric. Both SLCC and MLCC are basically used in the same places. Why is SLCC requirement so loose? In a non controlled enviorment I feel like 85C/85%RH/1.55V/240H is kind of meaningless. Imagine running something in a non hermetic package in the phillippines where things are hot and humid. You'd be at near 85C and 85%RH, plus the RWV for these are usually >50V AND we would definetly need to show operation in this enviorment for well over 240H. Any thoughts?

2023.04.01 13:15 wolfje_the_firewolf Frustrated with the constant ableism.
I constantly feel like people think I am less capable of living in a neurotypical world than I am. Yet I'm never given the chance to prove it. I know I'd be able to talk about my struggles and what I need, but I never get to because people assume I can't. I know I'd be able to live independently but everyone insists on me living in a group home, I know I'd be able to message my professors on my own but no one lets me, and whenever I vent about this or let myself be heard it's always the same shit "we do so much for you, be grateful" "but you aren't functioning well right now" "your diagnosis said level 2" I feelreally unheard and othered. I feel like people treat me like a child and not someone who is nearly 19. It's so fucking frustrating. I just want to be listened to.

2023.04.01 13:15 outofwedlock Interview with former staff writer: TBL’s process, template, intentional borrowing
2018 interview with Marisa Tam
—
T. A. Wardrope (TCG): What brought you to The Blacklist? What about the show appealed to you?
Marisa Tam: I did a program called NBC’s Writers on the Verge, which is an initiative from the network to train writers who are almost ready to be on a writing staff as well as an effort to increase diversity among writers for NBC and Universal shows. At the end of the program, the NBC folks sent the script I wrote in WOTV to the shows that were looking for new writers. It caught the eye of someone at The Blacklist, and they brought me in to meet with Jon Bokenkamp, the creator and executive producer, who liked me well enough to hire me.
I wasn’t a viewer of the show before someone at NBC gave me a heads-up that I was in the running for a job, so I had to watch three seasons over the span of a few weeks. But that race-against-the-clock marathon to get up to date with the show showed me the sheer breadth of James Spader’s abilities as an actor and the wide, ambitious variety of crimes and action sequences the show tackles on a regular basis. It was both daunting and an exciting prospect for a baby writer staring down her first paid writing gig.
TCG: Did you do any background reading or research into other shows or films or did you approach this as a “blank page”?
Marisa: My research tends to be more in the vein of weird news: articles about unusual jobs or brain disorders or missing nuclear weapons, of which there are more than you’d like there to be. We’re always looking for new sandboxes to play in that would give us either a weird backdrop for an episode or a persona for the Blacklister or even someone who provides a service to the criminal world—a venture capitalist for criminal endeavors, for example.
But sometimes the bosses like something from another show or from ’80s or ’90s movies that will be the framework on which we build a Blacklist episode. We were even once asked to try structuring an episode like an hour-long When Harry Met Sally.
TCG: Can you talk about the process in the writers’ room? The show can be fairly intricate, and I’m curious how that works itself out with the writing team.
Marisa: This show works differently from a lot of other shows, where the writers will be together in a room for most or all of the day. The showrunners, Jon Bokenkamp and John Eisendrath, generally figure out a story arc for a section of the season and pitch it to the room, which consists of 12 writers right now—though last year, we had 15! Then the writers pitch episodes that fit into that arc, and Jon and John run a “mini room” with a couple other upper-level writers, bringing individual writers in to break stories as they fit episodes into that arc. What that means for the rest of the writers is that we tend to work in smaller groups to flesh out ideas before the showrunners hear them.
The structure of the show can be pretty complex, but there is a loose formula, which helps when we’re coming up with stories. Generally, James Spader’s character, Red, brings a case to the FBI that presents as something like a kidnapping, but by the episode’s midpoint, the FBI team discovers that it wasn’t a kidnapping but a jailbreak, because the kidnap victim arranged her own abduction.
So sometimes we’re essentially coming up with two different ideas and trying to find a fun way to connect them through an interesting twist. Plus, we also have to fit a couple of action sequences in there somewhere, along with any smaller character storylines that need to be serviced. It can be a really difficult thing to do, but that’s why it’s great to have other writers to talk through the plot snarls—if I were trying to write this show without help, I probably would have put my head through a wall by now!
TCG: The show sits at an intersection of crime drama, tech thriller, and superhero science fiction. How do you feel about that? Are you inclined to any specific genre elements?
Marisa: I grew up on a lot of crime shows, but we were also loyal viewers of Star Trek: The Next Generation and Voyager, and stuff like Xena, so I hold a lot of different genres near and dear to my heart. The Blacklist is pretty grounded in comparison, though we definitely bend the rules on science that isn’t quite real yet and characters who do things like take off their noses at the end of the day.
But I like that the show is wide ranging, because it gives us the opportunity to explore different worlds and the criminal possibilities that come from each of them. It also gives me a chance to use a lot of the disparate, random knowledge that I’ve accumulated, even if it’s just to write a monologue for Spader about a tidal causeway.

Then the writers pitch episodes that fit into that arc, and Jon and John run a “mini room” with a couple other upper-level writers, bringing individual writers in to break stories as they fit episodes into that arc. What that means for the rest of the writers is that we tend to work in smaller groups to flesh out ideas before the showrunners hear them.
The structure of the show can be pretty complex, but there is a loose formula, which helps when we’re coming up with stories. Generally, James Spader’s character, Red, brings a case to the FBI that presents as something like a kidnapping, but by the episode’s midpoint, the FBI team discovers that it wasn’t a kidnapping but a jailbreak, because the kidnap victim arranged her own abduction.
So sometimes we’re essentially coming up with two different ideas and trying to find a fun way to connect them through an interesting twist. Plus, we also have to fit a couple of action sequences in there somewhere, along with any smaller character storylines that need to be serviced. It can be a really difficult thing to do, but that’s why it’s great to have other writers to talk through the plot snarls—if I were trying to write this show without help, I probably would have put my head through a wall by now!
TCG: The show sits at an intersection of crime drama, tech thriller, and superhero science fiction. How do you feel about that? Are you inclined to any specific genre elements?
Marisa: I grew up on a lot of crime shows, but we were also loyal viewers of Star Trek: The Next Generation and Voyager, and stuff like Xena, so I hold a lot of different genres near and dear to my heart. The Blacklist is pretty grounded in comparison, though we definitely bend the rules on science that isn’t quite real yet and characters who do things like take off their noses at the end of the day.
But I like that the show is wide ranging, because it gives us the opportunity to explore different worlds and the criminal possibilities that come from each of them. It also gives me a chance to use a lot of the disparate, random knowledge that I’ve accumulated, even if it’s just to write a monologue for Spader about a tidal causeway.
2023.04.01 13:14 dumb_cyka_2697 Bullets not registered even though ping is decent 40-50ms with almost no packet loss.
Recently it has been the case that many times I hit the enemy on head, my bullets appear to be going near their heads/bodies. And they just don't take any damage at all. Immediately I check in the packet loss graph, nothing only the 1-2% bump that appears when you die.
On many occasions I have shot enemy first but still I lost the gun fight because they started shooting the same weapon after me and still connect 4 bullets. I can't understand what's wrong!! I hit them first and all my bullets appeared to go towards them but still they managed to hit 4 bullets by flicking towards me. I die and then the damage report.shows 1 or 0 body shot registered.
I need a proper reason behind this.

2023.04.01 13:14 darkkoffeekitty I'm grateful for my best friend
I'm grateful my best friend has been with me nearly my whole life.
I'm thankful our bond is unbreakable, even under the test of time, the test of our lives becoming more separate as we continue to become young adults, yet our bond is stronger than ever.
I wonder if he saved me from a suicide attempt by calling a school counselor to intervene which changed the path of my life towards much greater. Regardless, he saved me.
Thank you for letting me see the light on the other side, the abundance that is out there. My depression obscured it for a little while, but the light shone itself through the darkness because of you. I will love you forever.

2023.04.01 13:14 reader_bee 3 year old personality flip
So up until quite recently, my child wasn’t an angel, but was lovely in many many ways. Nowadays I often end up crying or at least upset daily because of her behaviour. I know it isn’t personal, but it upsets me nonetheless.
At 1 year old, we made it so dummies/pacifiers were an “in bed only” thing. She dealt with this incredibly and had no problems at all. Now, her dummy is almost surgically attached to her, and trying to get her to hand it over until bedtime is proving to be near impossible.
She has begun experiencing what seem to be night terrors, and my child who has slept through, in her own bed, since 8 weeks old is now up several times a night, wanting to come into my bed to watch tv at 1am, asking for water constantly but only taking one tiny sip, screaming and kicking off if something doesn’t go her way. Basically, her dad and I are exhausted.
She has also started potty training, does incredibly at nursery and whilst out of the house, but the minute we are home, screams and cries wanting a nappy on.
She also seemingly despises me. Only wants her dad. I went to comfort her in the night last night and the moment I reached her bedroom door, she was hysterical because it was me and not her dad.
She’s also being horrifically mean to her younger sister (22 months), in ways that I can only describe as a WWE reenactment.
Please please please help me. I feel guilty for saying it, but I currently hate my 3 year old. I can’t stand her. I can’t stand to be around her. I wake up dreading the day and put her to bed dreading the night. And I feel so so guilty and upset myself more for feeling this way. Please help me. I’m desperate for any and every piece of advice you can offer me. But please don’t take this as an opportunity to drag me down further. I’m at a loss

I am yet to receive a quote under 6 thousand euro. I’ve tried 300 cc bikes I’ve tried 500 cc bikes I’ve tried old bikes. It’s all the same. I don’t have a shed and I have my license less than a year. I think I’ll just have to accept it won’t be possible for me to have a bike in the near future.

2023.04.01 13:13 BochechaY Single Layer Capacitor vs. Multilayer Capacitor in Humidity
Hi All. Very specific question here, might be too specific to get help, but let me ask anyway.
Single Layer Ceramic Capacitors (SLCC) only required "Low Voltage Humidity" tests with conditions being 85C/85%RH/1.55V/240H per MIL-PRF-49464C. Most Multilayer Ceramic Capacitors (MLCC) requirements (Telecordia, Mil-Std etc.) Require 85C/85%RH/RWV(well over 1.55V always)/1000H. The conditions in the requirement for MLCC are much more harsh than SLCC which I find strange. MLCC has basically the same materials, but much thinner dielectric. Both SLCC and MLCC are basically used in the same places. Why is SLCC requirement so loose? In a non controlled enviorment I feel like 85C/85%RH/1.55V/240H is kind of meaningless. Imagine running something in a non hermetic package in the phillippines where things are hot and humid. You'd be at near 85C and 85%RH, plus the RWV for these are usually >50V AND we would definetly need to show operation in this enviorment for well over 240H. Any thoughts?

2023.04.01 13:12 RedditKingKlay How to overcome low self esteem?
I’m sure this is asked a hundred times an hour hear but I’ll just ask into the void anyway. I’m 21, nearing a respectable degree in school, told I’m well above average in looks, fit, regimental. But at the end of the day I still usually feel like I wont let myself live past 30 before I end it all. I’ve been single my whole life with a smaller but close group of friends from High-school that I never branched out from. What I’m getting at is there are things still missing that I think will help me but I have no drive to seek them since I always just assume its wasted effort. This probably doesn’t tell enough does it?

2023.04.01 13:11 lotrocruti Please. Help Me Identify My Problems' Causes. Blank Mind, Ahedonia. Possible ADHD,DPDR?
Hi. Sorry if i make a mistake,or offend someone that is not my goal and english is not my main language.
Right now, i live in a situation that i can't go to therapist or even can't try to treat my self in the near future. But i just need to know that i might do something about it later in life. So i am in need of external affirmation about possibility of treating myself in the future so i can stop this worry feeling in me and study for an important exam coming in two months.
I might have aphantasia but i am a big daydreamer since ever, and i think my imagination is doing something in future in physical form,or having know what is something in its actual form instead of mental imagery.
So i realized i always think by imagining saying things in future settings instead of what i should think. Like a talking to talkshow,to a friend to emptiness, to something. But that imagine saying something is done by outside me which has limited capabilities.
Outside me, is when others interact me or vice versa. Like i said in 6. i go to a auto-pilot like thing when i interact with others, when i'm like that inside me nearly completetly goes away, and i start to act.
This not something like DID, but i realize what i did in the end. And still, dont get me wrong, i'm still me and i know and see and do? while doing it but i cant completely control myself,i kinda act like what others want to not get things bad or complicated, or to blend in automaticly.
I realized that i even developed a kind of reflex. When someone act someways, like laugh, even i am not in a social situation directly. And all these things are bad because i don't actually want to be like this. But i can't control it. I say i will when day starts but in the i cant control and go tell i joke i didnt really want when opportunity comes. Then kinda feel bad.
This is it generally. I realized these not long ago and i am still looking for some answers. I searched on the reddit, internet, because as i sad i cant to go a professional for a time, typed my symptoms i saw on on the net to chatgpt etc.
And in the end,with some other reasons i did not tell yet, i might have adhd,dpdr. OR other kinds of neuroal problems ? But i reserched the disorders above there is some problem.
Let's say i have ADHD-C. Because I relate to a lot of symptoms i read. Also because of i probably got some of these things by my mother, Who might miight have ADHD-PI. I look up on the internet and not a lot of people have diagnosed with adhd have these things i say if i saw right. Instead i think generally does not shut up etc. Or not exactly have no sense of self,aphantasia or anhedona since all of their life.
I know adhd is a not a fixed, one thing applies to all others kind of disorder. But i can't see someone relating to me So i still think i might have it. I relate to a lot of symptoms. Like rocking back and forth,nd talking patterns etc, but it might not the cause of these problems.
So, Let's say i have DPDR.I saw people relating to my problems but i dont relate to dpdr symptoms a lot. And again if i got it right, people who have dpdr have it like episodic oand have it by starting with some known cause like weed/trauma etc. i had my problems all my life.
About dpdr symptoms and not relating to it; if i have dpdr, i probably have depersonalization, but i still don't relate some said symptoms as: Warped sense of time and space, sense of disconnection like 3rd person view or feeling like watching your life on tv, visiual snow etc. Instead everythink is 4k and real. I feel not aware of it when i am interacting with others though. Or when i image think i start to constantly move around, get up from my chair and contantly switch rooms, and i realize when its over. or stop imagining for a moment and realize and continue imagining.
This it for now. If you have questions, i will try to answer it when i see. If you can help, thank you. And below this i will info dump some things that might help.
So really in the end. I just want a wholesome, good life lived with hopefully my future partner that compatible with me and die together. But to find her and to actually be able to live things i need to be a human again or the first time so if you help me thanks!!

So i am in need of external affirmation about possibility of treating myself in the future so i can stop this worry feeling in me and study for an important exam coming in two months.
I'm going to write my problems and some possible causes, hoping somebody knows it or had it and solved, so can help me identify this.
First, you should know i was always like thisand probably got some of them from my mother and realized these by reading online. But i still don't want to and trying not to misdiagnose my self somewhat on the way. I am not sure how should i start but here i go:
- Blank and/or empty mind. Aphantasia, No stream of thoughts or internal monologue and very Bad Memory. Like very bad. I am going to i will mention these later.
- Anhedonia? As i said, i learnt these by reading online but somewhat realising this now is kind of scary. But i don't think i actually had fun all of my life. If i really know what is it.
- Emotional Numbness. As an addition to anhedonia, I dont think i feel or felt much emotions all of my life. Maybe except stress,fear,boredom and not feeling bored.
- I am empty inside. So possibly having No self image and No self-esteem concept. Now i am not sure should i write this or that is this even possible but because of blank mind or whatever: maybe i have it but i'm not connected to it? I'm not sure of this one but i know that i have problemed self esteem,but i don't actually know why?
- Talking about not knowing why; Constant Stress or Anxiety. I *think***? i have general and social anxiety b ut i don't really know why. I probably fear of something might happen like normal people, but i dont have thoughts like "what if that happens then" or "what if she think me like that" etc. Except one thing. I have one life,what if i die without living it fullfilling enouh*.*But all of that is just a feeling for me ? I think normal brain probably gives answer to these questionsthat i dont get like actually question thoughts? rationally or already have but i cant think because of blank mind or not being me, and/or can't remember it for years becase of bad memory ?
- Getting to the end of important problems; Auto-Pilot like feeling? when interacting with others.
I might have aphantasia but i am a big daydreamer since ever, and i think my imagination is doing something in future in physical form,or having know what is something in its actual form instead of mental imagery.

- I'm 18 y/o boy, living in a not a good country oand not a good place, not usa or europe or asia
- i still live with my parents who i dont like and is actually abusive and ignorant. but i have plans for long term for getting my life good i hope.
- i dont remeber my childhood except max 20 memories but i dont remember a trauma either.
- i live to my parents religion even if my religion is different.
- i dont remember single affectionate moment in my life with my parents, mother, or anyone,so i might have emotional problems because of that but/and/or i started rejecting incoming affection from my parents some time on my life.
So really in the end. I just want a wholesome, good life lived with hopefully my future partner that compatible with me and die together. But to find her and to actually be able to live things i need to be a human again or the first time so if you help me thanks!!
2023.04.01 13:11 harleyuk My experience of True Self after five years IFS without a therapist
There is absolutely no wondering, pondering or questioning wether I am my true Self, it is not even a consideration.
Discovering new parts is an absolute joy.
Unconditional love is a natural quality and the love towards all my parts is palpable.
Parts can sense this and are usually very relieved that I have found them, relax in my presence and re-integration is easy.
There is no need to seek externally to others for advice or guidance - I know intuitively what to do and what is best for me in all situations.
I have no extreme aversion or attraction towards people or things.
My inner environment is predominantly silent, spacious and comfortable.
The body is recognised as a part of me and is looked after and loved deeply, I have found myself experiencing sadness at how I have treated it for many years.
I feel satisfied, joyous and fulfilled.
Emotions are accepted as part of the human experience and are not repressed or denied nor are they extreme in nature.
There is little to no polarisation or opinion but there is still preference.
There is a deep knowing that growth is a never ending process and that I am no where near finished, nor could I ever be.
Thats my experience of my true nature after five years of exploring my true nature and parts without a therapist, I hope this might help/inspire someone and feel free to ask any questions!
Thanks for reading.

2023.04.01 13:11 sad_rabbbit I think my cat has dermatitis
Hi! One month ago, my cat (female) started to scratch herself very often so I took her to the vet. They made her take a pill for deworming they put something on her head for fleas and we also changed her food. I went home and for the next weeks her skin started to become more itchy. When i wanted to pet her i noticed some bumps in her fur and saw some red dots on her skin. I wanted to take her to the vet again but my dad keeps saying we don’t need to. He thinks it s a food alergy to the Ham that my mom gives her, kind of every day. I don’t really know if it’s the Ham because she eats Ham since we got her (1 year and 5 months, also her age). I am scared cause there is a tiny Spot near her year where she scratched so bad the fur came off. Please let me know what you think it may be the cause.

We will bring out Diesel 911, Howes anti-gel treatment, and change the required filters. If necessary, we can even gently heat the fuel system and oil pan.Diesel fuel gelling happens when the paraffin that is usually present in diesel starts to solidify when the temperature drops. At 32 degrees, the wax in liquid form will crystallize and leave the fuel tank clouded. At 10-15 degrees, it will finally start to gel and clog the tank and fuel filters. There are several signs that can tell you that your diesel has already gelled. One of these is when you are having trouble starting your engine. Diesel fuel gelling clogs the fuel lines and fuel filters, preventing the fuel to pass through them. This phenomenon then prevents the engine from starting. Another sign is when there is a difference in the fuel rail pressure. This is likely the cause of problems like sluggish performance and inability to accelerate properly. Call Classic Towing today.

2023.04.01 13:08 DizzyHombre44 MdDs or PPPD? Don't really know but doesn't matter it came back after 3 years
Hello. So my story is a little bit long but here we go.
First dizziness episode:
I am currently 25 years old. I had my first episode of dizziness in June 2019. At that time, I was already hypocondriac for a good 6 months and I just got out of surgery for a kyst. Suddenly one day I started feeling the ground moving under my feet even tho I was standing still. I freaked out. The days after, my symptoms kept getting worse: constant dizziness, lightheadedness, swaying, brain fog, muscle pain, extreme light sensitivity, blurry vision etc... I felt like I was constantly on a boat. When I was lying down, my body was moving like a boat on sea, when I was standing still the floor was moving under my feet, when i was walking it was like the ground was always soft, like a trampoline.
Fortunately it was at the beginning of the summer between 2 university years. So I went to see all the specialists available under the sun: ENT doctor, neurologist, cardiologist, ER, Rheumatologist... I did CT scans, brain MRI, EMG, ECG, blood test etc. Nothing. Everything was fine. All the doctors were telling me "it's just anxiety, it's in your head, just relax". But I was feeling worst and worst. I gained weight because I was bed ridden. I lost a lot of money going to the capital seeing doctors, but also chiropractors, acupuncters, lot of alternative medecine. I was fed up. I just wanted to die. At that time, I diagnosed myself MdDs because I had all the symptoms and I was feeling much better in a moving vehicule, which was the main factor for a MDDS diagnosis. But I went to see a ENT doctor specialised in dizziness and he told me it was PPPD or maybe a mix of both it was impossible to know for sure.
After 3 months and being still dizzy, it was time to go back to college. I wasn't sure I would be able to but I forced myself and started my 2nd year of law school. At this time, I had started SSRI medication and I was taking valium which was helping me a lot functionning "normally". By doing things, going to class, doing sports, moving myself, I started to slowly noticed improvements. Several times, I thought I was healed but then I got relapses. It was really hard but I kept going ang going. After nearly 10 months on symptoms, I was nearly completly in remission in March 2020, just at the beginning of Covid.
The three years after that, I was completly normal. I continued my studies, went in an student exchange abroad and I am now finishing my masters in corporate law.
Second dizziness episode (now):
This leads up to now. My symptoms came back 5 weeks ago. Unfortunately. I was under a lot of stress and anxiety since 1 month, believing I had brain cancer or MS because I had weird symptoms. I was almost sure I was going to die. I also suffered a hearthbreak and I am really anxious about my future. But I'm not sure it explains the come back of my symtoms. One day, 5 weeks ago, I was shopping and I started feeling dizzy in a shop. Then when I walked in the metro station, I started to notice the ground moving under my feet. I didn't really paid much attention, I didn't want to believe it. But the following day it was way worse, I was feeling extremely dizzy. The ground was moving under my feet and it was way worse when I was in a still position (standing, sitting or laying down). Walking outside, I rapidly get brain fog and lightheadedness.
I went to see all the specialists all over again (less this time because I know now what I have) and the same doctor told me after a battery of tests that I had PPPD. So I started to take back SSRI medication, valium to function normally and started vestibular therapy last week. I am really desperate because I start a very important internship in a law firm. Then I am supposed to do a preparatory class this summer to pass the bar exam on september... I feel like my dreams are crushed because of this. I wake up every morning hoping this monster is gone but I almost immediatly feel my body moving like on a boat so i know it is still there. I fight everyday. I continued to go to class, to go to the gym etc but it is very very hard. I am really anxious about the upcoming weeks as I will be sitting behind a desk 10 hours a day and it is my worst position for my symptoms. I really hope that the SSRI medication will do wonders but I am alreay on week 4...
Thanks for reading me I will try to keep you updated (and btw sorry for my bad english I am french)

Ok i think you read all the rules. I hope we will have a fun time! Bye see you tommorow
As i read this paper left by my classmate Athena. I wondered if she was crazy. I mean i had heard some crazy stuff about her. About how people went missing after having sleepovers with her or her brothers being prisoners who escaped i didnt believe any of them. They were just crazy. I decided to go what could happen. I didnt had to convince my parents. They quickly accepted. Odd. But whatever.
As they dropped me off at her place. It was 6:36. One rule followed. As she opened the door her house looked super nice. The furniture, decor. Everything just screamed expensive there were animal heads everywhere and fur carpets. I dont understand why people dont like her. I introduced myself as Hera. Again one rule followed. I saw both Cadmus and Castor walk towards me. I said "Fuck you two" and quickly walked away. One rule followed. It was dinnertime. And i looked at their fridge an lo-and-behold there was the mealplanner. It was lasagna for dinner. I dont have any problem. They served me steak. I gave it to the dog. Again one rule followed. She dragged me to see her sister Alecto. I didnt say anything about her name and left. One rule followed. I put in my earmuff and my sleep mask. And as i said "I shall be protected by anyone who wants to protect" her dog came at me. It was a mastiff too big to be inside but he was protecting me i dont care. One rule followed. But the day after. My head was hurting super bad i wanted to cry. When i woke up it was almost 11 a.m."Shoot i must've overslept". My parents were here to pick me up as Ms.Gorey (Athena''s mother) said i excitedly hurried to the front door. When i saw my parents car outside. I almost cried. After i got inside my parents asked what time did i wake up at. I told them "I dont know". They once again asked me when did i wake up.

2023.04.01 13:07 Whisky206 Real Questions for Community about Daughter's Tumor
Background: My teen daughter has a near-perfect circular Glioma, which they describe as well-delineated lines. My question for this community is the following?
#1 Does anyone have a diagnosis that says their individual tumor is compatible with lets say (XYZ), has anyone gotten a diagnosis like this?
That use of language gave me pause. They too because a sample was sent by the hospital for a second opinion to the Mayo Clinic.
Quote Start
"Chromosomal Microarray, Tumor, FFPE
Result Summary
Consistent with a clonal neoplastic process with 17p loss including TP53 and other number changes, including diffuse midline glioma, H3 K27-altered. Other neoplastic processes are not excluded (See interpretation)
Interpretation
The result is abnormal." End Quote It then lists the loss and non-loss ect.
What in the world type of interpretation is this? THE RESULTS IS ABNORMAL!
Typical Questions or Things looked at:
This sounds like they aren't sure what type of tumor it is and are just using conventional methods. I appreciate the work they have done. This post is to see if someone else has had a similar experience. She did the radiation treatment and the chemo combo we use in this country.
What is crazy about this whole thing is that my daughter walks fine, and goes to the gym with us. Walks on the treadmill fine. Got her voice back and the biopsy fog cleared. I have an issue with this chemo because it does cause her confusion or she gets tired that week she takes it once a month.
Well thanks for reading any information would be appreciated.
