Yeah, and the cervix moves during the monthly cycle, so it's possible that it's not stretching out but the change in fay that made the difference. Well let's be real. It was never the stretching out. The cervix moving is our (first) theory here. Second theory: lubrication and foreplay made the difference. Not a theory: vagina stretch loosening

Someone described someone's dick as "as big as a coke can" the other day and I thought it was an interesting choice of words. I told the dick haver what was said about his dick and he said "okay not quite that big" but I haven't seen it to be sure.

I don't have numbers in front of me but people with a mental illness are something like 17 times more at risk for being the victim of a violent crime than someone without.

As a drug researcher, the drug advice in this thread makes me want to throw up my hands and give up forever. As a goon, I want to put more wood on the fire. Ayahuasca. Research chemicals. Imodium. All at the same time.

henpod posted:I've been trying to get her to think about therapy...I think she feels that therapy would mean she is in fact crazy. I've said that it's really normal and loads of people do it to work through poo poo. We are both going to yoga tomorrow as she wants to try that, and then acupuncture. If those don't help, she's agreed to let me help find therapy of some sort. Do you mean his behavior since she said no? If you mean his pattern of behavior in general, it's the latter, plus narcissism and lack of impulse control. If you mean since she said no, it could be sadism/lashing out plus the above. Loads of people go through therapy to talk about loss. I think mentioning that people see therapists after people die, after there have been natural disasters, etc, can help, also that the therapist could eliminate the possibility that there is anything wrong with her. Like she could think of it as an oil change, you get a little boost, you make sure everything is working, if there are issues you can work on those or make a plan for working on those.

henpod, I tried to PM you to offer support for your gf, but it seems like you don't have PMs. Just LMK (somehow?) if you need help finding a therapist who is a good fit, and I'm happy to speak with both or either of you on Skype, as a friend, not as a therapist.

NomChompsky posted:okay fair enough but it's better than stretching right? Well at least stretching should have *some* effect because something is actually happening. I'm not sure what the proposed mechanism of action of "ancient Chinese secrets" is though, the evidence base for acupuncture is dodgy as hell. That said, there are some studies of acupuncture. You can join us anytime in the pseudoscience thread to read takedowns of those.

henpod posted:Thank you so much - yeah I don't have plat but I am so touched for your offer to help. I will remember your username and find a way to get in touch. henpod posted:This is all so true. One of her greatest fears is being an emotional burden on those around her, and is especially afraid of pushing me away. I'm trying my best to be supportive but it can be difficult - I have no experience with this but I can see her getting better, until a trigger from her past brings it all back. Triggers like this nice guy who is a link to that trauma and can't let it go, because that's the only link he has with her.

Pick posted:I tend to think of niceness as instrumental, and in that way neutral, where as kindness is an intrinsic characteristic and inherently good. I know people who are nice who are terrible people, which this thread tends to highlight in a specific way, and I know nice people who are very kind, it's not that closely related. Meanwhile, I also know people who are very kind who don't quite have the social finesse to appear nice. They tend to be my favorite. Could you please share examples from fiction?

You cannot get a restraining order with that. He would need to show up in person or threaten to at the very least. But he's not going to because he's a coward who preys on women who are vulnerable. Turn on the lights and the cockroaches scatter. Good riddance.

Grand Prize Winner posted:Any other nice guys in recovery have real weird self-esteem issues? Every time a girl's into me I immediately start trying to spot flaws in her character/appearance. If I don't spot any I start making them up. Once I've made a big enough list I drop all communication. This usually takes about 4-6 hours from first meeting her. Hello what kind of recovery are you meaning? Edit: Oh from being a nice guy, never mind.

phasmid posted:You just need to try harder. If you're a shrink or a social worker or whatever, life's going to throw crazy poo poo at you. Lol thanks. It's true that I'm a shrink that works at a think tank and my mind is mush right now but I think knowing there's crazy poo poo out there may be why I jumped to "maybe he is accusing her of loving a dog."

The anti choice activists by Metro Center scared the poo poo out of me on Saturday by coming up behind me riding a unicycle and then asking me to help them fight abortions. The man on the loudspeaker said that abortions cost less than $50. *sigh*

Some in the ladies thread suggested that their unicycling was good because it would be easy to push them over, but I was not in any kind of mood to commit an assault.

They actually came up behind me and started talking and started me. I was walking to meet a blind date. The conversation went like: Hi, do you want to join me in fighting against abortion? (Wren jumps.) What? No thank you. Sorry for scaring you. (Tries to hand brochure) ... Oh. Okay.

Pick, are we the same person?  I'm a therapist but work as a researcher, and have developed pretty decent boundaries through my training, so my friend group isn't usually a whirlwind.However, I went to a event tonight and after being rejected by the third man within 24 hours, spent my a bunch of time reassuring people with depression that they didn't need to feel the weight of obligation to always believe in themselves. When they feel weak they can remember I am believing in them. I have so much joy and love in my life and I want to share it.
