I wanted ash-blonde color hair. Showed pictures. Ended up with purple hair. I hated it. In retrospect I should've just enjoyed the ride.

Anonymous 21911

Someone's going to think this is stupid but whatever.

It was a totally decent cut & color, but when talking about restaurants she made a joke about spitting in people's food in a way that gave me such an icky vibe about who she was as a person.

When I was 16 I wanted to have orange hair, mine was really long and voluminous but instead of telling me it'd be impossible or that it'd take many sessions, they decided to do it all in one go. They started bleaching it from the top but by the time they got to the tips my scalp was fucking burning, like it was legit smoking. They rinsed it and then finished she process but for like the next 5-ish years, maybe more, that area of my scalp (back of my head) would feel gooey and my hair would grow as if perpetually humid.

Why do skinny girls even want these?

I agree with most of this and this is a good training regimen for what you're targeting. I have to disagree on the yoga thing though. If part of your problem is chronic armoring and general tightness yoga can be helpful. I know you can just do indivual stretches for recovery, but doing them in a sequence that flows is more efficient time wise and just works better in my experience. I found using a logical progression/flow improves the effectiveness of the stretches themselves, and being able to enter a meditative state using the movements is extremely beneficial for your mental and physical health.

I just think taking a more holistic approach is better than being so super against yoga as a whole just because it's full of hacks and grifters just like every single other thing on this planet that is even remotely popular. If you can get past the heavily promoted bullshit there are genuinely excellent practices and teachers out there.

I do agree that telling people to do just yoga for back pain is not nearly enough and it should be done in combination with a strength training regimen.

>Men rape you twice as fast as they normally would when you are fat
Wait, really? I was at my heaviest last year and lost 20kg, but gained like 9 back this year. Was really struggling to find motivation because I'll see shit about men being abusive or preying on women and my mind goes "Why would I want to lose weight and become pretty then, that'd only make me an easier target" so I forgo my diet again, even though I do want to lose weight. But if what you say is true then maybe I should, just so I don't look like someone they can take advantage of, or something, I don't know.

Anonymous 22002

>>22001
It may be somewhat true. Abusers go for the vulnerable, which being fat is often a sign of. (lack of confidence, neuroticism, trauma, etc) Girls who were abused are both likelier to become fat and get abused again.

Anonymous 22003

I am but it's not so bad, I've recently been losing some weight too so I'm even less fat but it's never been bad enough that it affects my movement or anything like that. It's not too hard to hide the belly, either.

Can we all agree that Leon is one of most handsome and dreamy male characters in fiction and best in RE? What went so right with this guy?

Anonymous 21956

>>21954
Eh, what makes him such an attractive character to many is simply because he's very undefined, making it easier for people to project whatever they want onto Leon. The same can be said with many other male characters in fiction.

Anonymous 21976

I thought he was cute when I was in high school. I remember absolutely nothing about his personality or backstory tbh.

He looks better in the fanart imo because the RE games' artstyle looks ugly to me and they made him look greasy. Also in the future he becomes fat which is a turn off personally, I like him as a twink

I can't believe this glowie moid shit crossed over from that fucking place. No one wants to admit they have shitty genetics and don't screen for defects and then leave it up to god to sort it out after going to every length to ruin their overall health and fertility. I bet most of these parents don't even breast feed or shook the kid cause it cried and are suprised it won't look at them anymore.

>No one wants to admit they have shitty genetics
sometimes i wonder if they believe that technology will save them and 'clean up' their shitty genes and all they are doing is holding out until technology has caught up to the place that they can pretend they have always been very healthy and well-maintained. i had average genes and after many years of living healthy and mindfully i have improved my genes. i guess most people don't know this is possible.

>after going to every length to ruin their overall health and fertility.

i just realized i have never once in my entire life heard anyone discuss the topic of maintaining fertility. while still being downstream from health, it is a topic worth discussing. legend states fruitarian women have very light and easily endurable periods because their overall regeneration is so healthy that there is hardly any blood involved.

>I bet most of these parents don't even breast feed or shook the kid cause it cried and are suprised it won't look at them anymore.

heh 😂 you just described the average parents and the reason most people are so fucked up in a single sentence, i love it.

I think we as a society should euthenize all the children. This world is not a good place for children whatsoever and they are better off dead before they reach the age of accountability and risk going to Hell.

Period Thread Anonymous 21888[Reply]

Today, July 8th, is the anniversary of my first period. I will never forget July eighth of 2013 when I had it. It was so painful, I was only 9 at the time too, so I thought Satan had been summoned into my stomach to make me bleed. (I was raised Catholic)

It was horrendous, I threw up, I passed out in bed, had a nightmare of going to Hell and woke up screaming "Jesus, save me!", threw up again and ruined my Game Boy Advance, it was just pure scream bloody gore.

And there's my two cents. Please share your sweet horror stories about your periods.

Ideal Body Type thread? Anonymous 1672[Reply]

What's your ideal body type, anons?

Are you into being thin, or curvy, or maybe fit? Were you born a cone shape but long to be a pear? Or maybe you're a banana but would rather be an hourglass?

I'd like to hear your opinions and what you're doing to get there!

Imo, thin and curvy is ideal (as in mostly narrow but with wider hips). Unfortunately I'm not curvy, I'm more rectangular, I have to stay thin or else I look bad.

I wish i was tall I seethe every time somebody brings up how short I am i hate it so much. I dont care what body type I just wish I was tall so I could look at people beneath me the way talls look at me now. They mess around with me too saying shit about how theyre letting middle schoolers in wherever I am and asking if i lost my parents. fucking talls should turn short for a day to know what its like. In high school they used to just pick me up just to mess with me. I hate all talls.

Yeah, sure, my hallucinations and delusions were just a myth invented by ebil corpos.

Returning to the topic of the thread.

>Do you take any? Which ones?

Currently I take paroxetine and quetiapine (ESL, so I don't know their murican names)
>When did you start?
Year ago when my parents finally made me visit to psychiatrist. I felt so bad, that I wanted to be hospitalised despite knowing how shitty my country's psych wards are. Luckily, my genetic disease saved me from going there.
>Are you diagnosed with anything?
Either schizotypal personality disorder or psychotic depression. Yeah, I've been through psychosis and not just once.
>Which ones have you tried? Did they work?
I was lucky to have my antidepressant correct from beginning, but finding a right antipsychotic took some time. I've tried aripiprazole, but it just gave me bad extrapyramidals. Olanzapine made me gain weight very quickly, so it was cancelled.
My current meds are working fine, but I have a fear that once I drop them, I'll return back to shitty state and maybe even worse. They make you dependant, for sure, but it's the case with many meds used against chronic diseases, not only with antipsychotics and antidepressants. Many gastroenterological meds such as laxatives and inhibitors of proton pump make you dependant on them as well, but I guess, becoming a bit dumber than usual is bigger problem than not being able to shit by yourself and having strong stomach bain and heartburn every time you're off your meds.

>Do you take any? Which ones?
Zoloft 100mg (seeing doc in a couple days, bet she will increase it), pregabalin 75mg 3x.

>When did you start?

Feb, I think? maybe earlier

>Are you diagnosed with anything?

PTSD. Scumbag psychologist insisted I "did not seem like someone with PTSD" but both a psychiatrist, and later a hospital diagnozed me with PTSD. Also, depression, dyslexia, dyscalculia.

>Which ones have you tried? Did they work?

Mirtazapine, big regret. Useless for anxiety, could of been useful if the psychiatrist educated me and pointed out only SSRIs help anxiety. So I wouldn't had wasted time and money.

Zoloft tho…it feels like nothing changed and I am still me. Yet my anxiety finally is beginning to chill the hell out. Everything feels normal until "wait…did I just…walk up and talk to that librarian? wait, did I legit just order food on my own, and even was able to walk back up to the cashier and ask him to correct my order? wait….. I MANAGED TO GET INTO SCHOOL?? wait wtf I CAN NOW MANAGE TO CALL MY DOC INSTEAD OF RELYING ON EMAILING HER??" I also find it mind blowing, I was too scared to go to a piercing studio, not cuz pain, but because of severe social anxiety. I had a friend walk me to the place, and still I was under tons of fear since I'd have to eventually go in a room alone with the piercer. But now, I can do it fine all on my own, with just awkward nervousness, no biggie. I also now have the balls to ask for directions from strangers.

Oh, same anon still. I want to empathize the irony of all this: programming + building breadboard and arduino projects is a huge hobby of mine that means a lot, but keep it mind it requires hyper focusing and logic. A soldier with PTSD told me "don't idle. constantly do something, outside of games. that helps with PTSD slowly get under control", and a friend also said to keep depressin at bay find some hobby you can be consistent with. So Zoloft making programming and my IT school harder to focus in is hugely ironic and annoying. But eh, I try to make it thru. We all have more control over our lives than we think, we just gotta keep trying, chief.
