Re: #83460 - Exercise you love, exercise you hate
Love: Yoga! It helps me learn to control my breathing, increases my flexibility, and just makes me feel all around good. Weight lifting. The first and so far only time in my life I've touched my toes without bending my knees was after a good, hearty bout of lifting in the class I had last semester. ...

Re: Rant of the Day
Am a little hypomanic. Got annoyed at downstairs neighbors playing music loudly after quiet time. Stomped in time to the music. Seemed music got quieter. Felt ashamed and went quietly to room. CAN NOW HEAR MUSIC AGAIN

Re: BQ 83402 YSA - privileged position or persecuted posteri
Going to a single's ward got increasingly awkward for me when I was in a relationship. There I was, in the special 5th-Sunday meeting that was focused on marriage and whatnot, and my long-term boyfriend was sitting next to me while we were both given overly-cheerful and slightly condescending advice...

Re: 83352 - The Board Apostasy Board (I'm joking, not hating
There also hasn't been a single new profile registered here since last December. So... apparently this is kind of not true. I was just made aware that more than one person had tried to create an account recently but it didn't work. I poked around on my end and found that several new accounts have b...

Re: Mental illness is dumber
I'm finally starting to be able to go to bed in my new apartment without anxiety, so that's good. However, due to another panic attack at work which a kind of horrible manager (T, I'll call her) tried to use against me, I am now about to really formalize my mental illness with my work beyond the ver...

Re: Regretting an abortion
That being said, I also believe strongly that it's important to view the reasons women get abortion with compassion and not judgment, and to try to improve societal trends so that less women have to make that difficult decision in the first place, i.e. improved access to birth control, daycare, and...

Here's my response to your last paragraph, Zed, though I'm not Marduk: When someone posts a poorly-worded liberal opinion, I can fill in any gaps with my own thoughts and research on the subject. When someone posts a poorly-worded conservative opinion, I hear FOX News or my intelligent but somewhat...

Re: 83352 - The Board Apostasy Board (I'm joking, not hating
This conversation is super interesting to me because I have been on this board FOREVER. I am one of the oldest members still active, having registered only seven months after the board was created. I have the third most posts. I've been an admin since 2008 and am currently the only active day-to-day...

Re: Rant of the Day
Tonight I remember why I'm apprehensive about living in apartments. The unit below us has been moved into (apparently this may have happened at about 1:45 this morning? Both my roommates heard loud voices) and they've done nothing but play really repetitive music at volumes we can easily hear. Not t...

Re: During what time of the day do you read for fun?
I read on the bus and during my lunch break/lunch time at school. I also occasionally read before bed but that usually leads to staying up too late.
I used to read during every meal (at least the ones I ate alone) but now that I have a computer I usually eat at my desk.

Re: Is This Normal?
I'd say that doesn't sound like a good therapist. My first session of therapy, both times, was almost entirely me talking with occasional neutral prompts ("You haven't mentioned your father yet. Is he in your life?) and then with a big "Here's what I understand about you and your situation...

Re: Mental illness is dumber
I dissociated fairly strongly a couple of days ago (for multiple minutes my consciousness was several inches behind where my eyes actually are... it's hard to explain) and today, curious, I looked it up, thinking that I had never dissociated before. I need to talk to a therapist/psychologist of some...

Re: #82371 - ask for forgiveness, NOT permission
Questions such as these certainly strike people like you or I differently than most (if not all) writers. My parents would almost certainly say no to Marduk because they don't like his politics or his person - but then again, would they go ahead and say yes because they've already given up on me as ...

Re: Most spent on software
I have Creative Cloud! I paid about $21/month for the first year and now pay about $32/month; so far I've paid about $450. WORTH IT. I use Lightroom daily and Photoshop at least weekly. Premiere, InDesign, and Illustrator are more rarely used but invaluable for certain projects.
