Please. To the end. 
I don't own the video. Found it on internet.

Share your thoughts, this is my genuine question ...... How is it that women are claiming to be commited in search of love when statistically - generalized but based on fact that almost 70% of women dating profiles are dormant, least to no swiping, only shortlisting through likes received which is nothing wrong with that. However, shouldn't a more proactive action contribute to better success in finding your person?

Or are we too discourage by the idea of digital rejection though indirect as it costs nothing to both side

Do woman really search for Love in apps or is it all a facade?

Indeed!

This is a reminder to the men that you're worth love. Just be patient and practice self care.

The Guide of the Perplexed

Everything I've accepted about myself all my life is now being questioned once again. I am quickly becoming a stranger within my own mind again and everything has become uncertain again. I suppose that I am grateful for the amount of change that is happening within me but it is getting harder to maintain that mentality with every passing day. The person I was before is gone, there is no going back anymore so until I can think of a better alternative my only option is to endure I suppose. Until I can understand why I am doing this to myself I suppose.

The best thing anyone could do is give me a pew pew to put myself down. Value is less than zero

If we're honest. . .

How it's work on in real life ? Why it's always a hill to me ?

What is really love is ?

I don't think my mind has ever been pressed into overdrive in the way it is now. To provide the analogy that I personally resonate with the most right now it would be better to say that the CPU has been pushed beyond its limits consistently for days now. Tonight is on another level though. Something significant is shifting within me and with things the way they are sleep will be impossible. All I can do is continue to distract myself until this process is finished. I doubt I'll be coherent enough for a proper conversation for some time which would usually end this post here and now. However this app has shown me something very curious. There are a lot of attuned souls here who have seen the worst that humanity has to offer and still stand against it. What has been rare all my life is becoming dangerously common place for me since joining this app. The amount of help or at the very least support that I've received from this app is a polar opposite to every other experience I've gained over my 29 years of existence so far so I suppose what started as an explanation has become a heartfelt thanks sent out into the datastreams to people who couldn't possibly start to understand what kind of insanity I'm spouting right now. Thank you all, sincerely.

What Their Silence Speaks The Loudest

🙂

I don't know if I'll ever be able to forgive myself for this but I miss my rage. It really shows me the depths I've managed to sink to now and there is no way I could ever work to reclaim it or rebuild it. I cannot escape the fact that I'm grieving it's loss in exactly the same way that I grieve the end of a relationship. This reaction certainly explains a great deal about all of the stupid things I've done in my life, maybe once this comes to a close I can truly begin my work. Once again I must wait, once again I must be patient. Thankfully I've had a lifetime of waiting to adapt, a little more is nothing by now. I have to keep a careful eye on this... it seems that it's quickly becoming an exposed nerve within my mind.

Lo irónico del dolor es que queremos que nos consuele aquello que nos lastimó.

Lo irónico

It’s like I live in my head. 🙂

Is understanding others a skill, or a mirror of yourself?

When you look at someone’s MBTI type, do you think it really tells you who they are, or is it just a fun label?

Are you still believing the “busy” excuse, or are you ready to start aligning with the ones who make you a priority?

Thoughts?

At the end of the day I think we all become one of the two. The one who opens the jars, or the one who hands them over.

I'm the one who hands them over 🥺

I think I've figured it out

Would you wanna know everything about your partner’s exes, or are some things better left in the past?

What level of adulting have you reached?

Defence mechanism

Yeah Hi there. How do I interact with people who don't even wanna engage?? Like they act all invested in the requests and then drop the ball once the conversation starts. Like HELLO?

 It's like they all secretly expect me to carry the whole conversation. And I'm already going out of my comfort zone to even talk to them ,I don't have the spoons and I am sick and tired of having to keep connections alive! It's like all my life Ive just been begging for scraps of attention and they drop me immediately once I expect them to care and come back on their own for once. 

ITS THE BARE MINIMUM TO HAVE A CONVERSATION DAMNIT!!!!

Anyone Home???

Are there specific apps, exercises, routines, or ways of thinking that help people feel better and stay functional despite the trauma? 
I don't need personal stories, just looking for practical implementation ideas. . 
 Thanks

What are the practical tools and techniques people use to manage the symptoms of PTSD day-to-day?

Anyone here aware of attachment style willing to build a connection?

I went through a very specific, horribly traumatic event that has resulted in me suffering with what they're diagnosing as CPTSD. I still have symptoms of pyschosis, flashbacks, and nightmares. 
I am searching for anyone who might relate with me. ANYONE who can say they have stood in my shoes. 
Do you hear voices in the water? 
Do you see the bodies?
Are you still halfway trapped in a horrifying nightmare fantasy, fighting to maintain your reality?
Do you miss the fear?
Do you miss the terror?

A Nightmare Dressed Like a Daydream

What qualities in a person make you think: “Yes, this is the one I want to love and be with”?
Or is it all about chemistry for you — you just start to feel it?
Or maybe you have an inner dialogue first, weighing all the pros and cons?

Thursday question ⁉️

Mary Shelley's Creature is a profound case study in the devastating psychological impact of extreme loneliness, abandonment, and social rejection. 

The Creature's narrative mirrors the developmental trauma that results from a severe lack of attachment and belonging.

Developmental Trauma and Abandonment
The Creature's existence begins with an immediate and catastrophic trauma: his creator, Victor Frankenstein, abandons him at the moment of his "birth." Psychologically, this is akin to a child being immediately rejected by its primary caregiver, resulting in a complete failure to form a secure attachment bond.

 Absence of Nurturing: The Creature is thrust into the world with adult-level cognitive function but without any of the guidance, emotional support, or human connection necessary for healthy psychosocial development.

 The "Fatherless" Trait: Studies on severe neglect and fatherlessness often correlate with issues like emotional dysregulation, difficulty forming relationships, and an increased tendency toward aggression, all of which manifest in the Creature's eventual descent into violence.

The Cycle of Rejection and Retaliation
The Creature's horrifying appearance guarantees that every subsequent interaction with humanity is one of fear, disgust, and violent rejection. 

This repeated social exclusion establishes a vicious psychological cycle:
 Hope and Observation: Initially, the Creature is innocent and empathetic, observing the De Lacey family and attempting to learn language and benevolence. This reflects a fundamental human need for connection.
 Traumatic Rejection: Each attempt at a connection is met with violence, intensifying his feeling of alienation and confirming his "monstrous" status.
 Rage and Vengeance: The cumulative despair and anger from universal rejection breeds intense hatred and a desire for revenge. His aggression is a retaliatory response to the pain and injustice of his isolation, which he channels primarily toward his creator.
 Identity Crisis: The Creature cannot reconcile his initial benign nature with the "fiend" he is perceived as and eventually becomes. His loneliness forces an identity of outcast upon him, compelling him to seek a companion of equal monstrousness, as a normal human connection is impossible.

Pathology and Psychopathy
Some psychological analyses of the Creature's later actions suggest traits associated with psychopathy or Conduct Disorder (with Callous-Unemotional traits), which is often linked to severe childhood neglect and abuse.
 Lack of Remorse: While he shows deep remorse at the novel's end, his acts of murder -starting with William-are initially carried out with a detached, cold logic motivated by vengeance.
 Manipulative Behavior: His demand for a female companion is a rational, well-articulated, yet manipulative move to exert control over his creator.
Ultimately, the Creature's tragic trajectory is a powerful illustration of the adage that monsters are not born, but made - not by their physical construction, but by the psychological damage inflicted by prolonged, universal loneliness and the denial of human connection.

Frankenstein's Creature wasn't a monster.

The key to predicting people’s behavior

Does a strong and unique personality attract egoistic/ dominant people ?

Question:

Do you think it’s a problem if your partner has a close friend of the opposite sex?

Fears

I wanted to be honest with y'all for a moment, there is a massive rise of labelling a normal human trait as autism. One example that comes to mind is the use of one's own imagination which the world is sorely in need of but unfortunately calls it an illness when it's not. The misrepresentation of this specific health related category discourages people from being creative, which is why we also are seeing a lot of tasteless dead stuff in society overall. I even see it in interior design, all those greys, blacks, and whites like there is no life in its creation, or even the entertainment business pumping out remakes like they can't think of anything fresh anymore...

I try my best to be careful on how much medical science influences me because at the end of the day, I am aware it is a business corporation and it will continue to be that until they shift their focus to being of service to their own fellow man rather than exploiting us for everything we are and own. 

Sometimes, it feels like their goal is to hoodwink us when all we're doing is connecting with our own happy self. I am aware that there is a tactic in society at this time that loves to discourage that healthy part of humanity and I'm also a bit irritated for people who allow themselves to be told by a dead-inside corporation that there is something wrong with us for simply wanting to look at life in a child like wonder fashion that doesn't "belong" in a blank filled world and blindly believing it like white lab coats are godly, no they are human and they are prone to being wrong from time to time too...

I think my main gear grinding comes from the fact that we are disrespected and lied to on the daily and we are expected to eat sht and then call it a wonderful forward thinking revelation. Give me a damn break.

You know what? I'm kinda irritated with the tactics used against us...

i just wanted to share something: after 8 years, I'm being discharged from therapy. my depressive symptoms have gone into remission. i am overcoming depression 🤍
