One particular thing I'm grieving is being bullied(in comments of this post.)

What started me on trails of grieving multiple things at once was my cat recently passing away. The heartbreak basically ripped open my heart and mind in new ways, and my grief for different things have been spilling out. This is genuinely good. I feel wiser than ever in terms of love.

I'm safe now. So im unpacking my grief. I heard unprocessed grief can literally cause physical illness, among emotional/mental/sexual issues. I've dissociated and compartmentalized too much now.

Anyway, it sounds like you're already on the right track with choosing self love over anger though. I spent a lot of time being angry when I was younger and it gets you nowhere.

Thank you. I appreciate the validation.

They've been gone for years. I'm just starting to feel my grief about the hurt. I only just realized anger only makes me relive them being here so I'm trying to leave that in my past amd work on my grief.

Adult. A shitty roommate moved out.

~~TW: SI attempt(no method mentioned), SA~~ I tried to attempt SI. Someone made ex roommate hide my method of choice in her room to keep it away from me. Less than an hour later, she came out and the first thing she said was "You're almost X-years old, and you're acting like THIS?"

She also heard me repeatedly sob about having been SA'd.

She later told us that she can hear everything we say when her door is closed. (After she moved out we found out even if you yell at the top of your lungs, you can't hear the words from ex roomates old room unless you press your ear to the door.) She later said to my boyfriend in front of me "Mike Tyson is a removed and I like him." Adding since he admitted to rping she was fine with the fact he's aremoved*." She was always giving edgy offensive takes.

That was in response to us loudly talking for a month about how disgusting it is that she's a big fan of a Nazi even while her romantic partner Jewish. After coming out to say she chose to stop listening to the Nazi(without any apologizing) she switched right to her love for Mike Tyson.

Months later a pigeon landed close to our windows and coo'd. When we later told her about it, her first response was gloating about Mike Tyson and how much she loves him for keeping pigeons.

(Same details as my last post, but with a different question in the title because getting responses about how people get through bullying was the point. Last title is too specific.)


I'm curious to know even if your way isn't what I'm trying.

It's awful to get dehumanized when you're the most down.

I have found that my way through this will be grief instead of anger. Anger is okay, but it can be left at the point of my initial response. Grief is a way of loving, and I am trying to love myself through this hurt. I want to explore this hurt. But I'm not really sure how.

Thankfully the main person I have in mind while writing this is gone from my life, so I don't need to hold onto anger so much.

It's awful I got kicked when I was most down by someone who obessively pretended they had respect for my ethnicity.

I think this tends to happen when people move away from their homeland and raise their kids elsewhere. Especially if your parents are committed to Americanizing. I'm not sure how else to understand them not teaching me so much basic stuff about the biggest holidays of my culture. Like New Years related things, for example. It makes me sad that I celebrated half of only some holidays.

Honestly maybe it's because they were poor. I will ask them about this. Poverty probably changed what traditions they practiced.

Okay I feel so stupid, I only just realized feminine people wear scarves over their heads because it's hot where their place of origin is. I knew that about religious people, but I didnt know why women in India and parts of Africa do. Someone please help me spot other common patterns in terms of clothing. Even culture in general, like some desert cultures discouraging eating shellfish because it spoils too easily in the heat.

Theory can give me out of control feelings of excitement, and that's really bad for me. I've been mostly abstaining for years after reading a few articles. Even with things more psychology related, like Will to Change by Bell Hooks, I try but cannot deal with the raw feelings.

Connecting the dots is so exciting it can be overwhelming. Reading theory makes me want to go around and tell everyone mindblowing facts. Who else has difficulty containing their excitement in a way that can get out of control? How do you calm down? It'd be so good if I could read and chill.

Apparently the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines only give you immunity for about 6 months. I've gone over a year before without a new shot.

Uncritical support! Bless his big heart and the hearts of everyone who helped build this! This is very touching. If only more people knew what they make rise out of rubble. kirby-dance

incels when rejected: and now i changed my entire personality and life to be as feral and disgusting as possible

Lots of incels were already like that. Some always wanted a reign of terror, but were waiting to do it in a way where they felt there'd be little to no consequence for themselves. The more fascist a place gets the more quiet incels go mask off.

Wait, actually no it sucks more for women because dating isn't just putting your pride on the line, it's risking assault and verbal abuse everytime too. Oh but on top of that they get to hear from incels (and the media) about how easy it is for women to date. But again, no one gives a shit, because they're women, so who cares.

Denim Day is a day where people wear jeans in solidarity with assault victims after a woman lost aremoved trial. The jury blamed theremoved as her fault because she wore tight jeans. The assaulter went free.

Denim Day takes place on the last Wednesday of April, which is Sexual Assault Awareness Month. This day of action and awareness is an event in which people are encouraged to wear denim to combat victim blaming and educate others about sexual violence.[1] The day comes following a high profile Italianremoved trial where the survivor was blamed for herremoved because of the type of jeans she was wearing.[2] In protest and solidarity, individuals are encouraged to wear denim to combat the idea thatremoved and sexual violence are the fault or responsibility of survivors.

Both. They asked me for advice if I had any. Turns out I need that advice too.

I can see abusive parents forcibly removing their 14+ year old children from school and using them as cash cows. Including parents that are already well off. The rich are often the most likely to throw other lives into the grinder as long as they gain money, and many don't plan to exclude their own children from their plans to do so.

Mandatory public school attendance is sometimes the only protection some kids have from an abusive home life.
