`Nemesis posted:It's pretty much this. A drug that knocks out depression in one person can just make the next person worse. It gets much harder once you start having to use multiple medications because you've run through the normal ones and now you have to stack them while still managing the side effects. It really sucks for the patient. One of my close friends suffered an extremely traumatic childhood and currently takes 13 pills a day between all her prescriptions, and it’s still not quite enough to perfectly regulate her and very expensive without insurance. Part of the reason I’ve been working to break away from my workplace with my own company has been to employ her with insurance and a living wage that can ensure she has what she needs.

It’s me, except for the brony part.

Being a Brony doesn't mean they can't be a good person. But it does mean that they're a person who chooses to define themselves by their singular love of a children's cartoon show. And that is plenty laughable.

I'm pretty sure D&D remains the only subfourm to regularly drive people to the suicide helpline. And the climate change thread is just a particularity miserable pile of people waxing about how they, and they alone are the only ones smart enough to comprehend the climate crisis. No, we're not looking for a reason to feed our misery, it's because we're cursed with the burden of being so smart!

Telsa Cola posted:Sounds like a culturally bound syndrome. The last i read about DID, if it exists as its own thing, its basically a culturally bound way of expressing Borderline Personality Disorder. Its not "multiple personalities'", its more like "no personality", just acting however you think the person/people you're interacting with want to see.

ASenileAnimal posted:which jrpg final boss monologue is this? It reminds me -- and this is an intense power-level-showing post, I'm aware -- of the manga adaptation of Mother 2/Earthbound, where the ending involves Giygas giving an "I'm saving the earth from the evils of humanity" speech like this, and the heroes hesitate for like ten seconds before someone is like "come on, dude's full of poo poo, it's Giygas" and the fight starts. Even a crazy-rear end Nintendo manga adaptation of an SNES game couldn't take this poo poo seriously.

razorrozar posted:i haven't read the earthbound manga but if it attempts to take anything seriously it's doing the game dirty It's a standard Nintendo manga adaptation, which means it's a faithful version of about half the game (read: weird) and then diverges wildly in the second half, somehow managing to get even crazier

my personal fav climate change disaster culminates in a giant anime girl rising into the skies and it can only be prevented by another child dealing with his major mental illnesses and impending adult nihilism

Again, there's a difference between being a Brony, and just being a fan of the show. If you choose to define yourself as a Brony, you pick up all the baggage that comes with that. Its the same thing as being a person who likes video games vs.being a "Gamer". If you make your hobby your defining trait, well, then you get to get mocked.

Yeah, that's the thing. I've known some lovely people who watched the horse show and they would be absolutely loving incensed if they were called a brony. Zero of them openly claimed one of the underage horses as their waifu.
