Yeah, I feel you. 🙂 Photography is the one thing keeping me sane right now. I’m definitely not a pro or anything, but it helps me deal with stuff. Otherwise, it’s just constant guilt, needing everyone to validate my every move, and those dark thoughts... At least my hypochondria finally backed off. 😁

How do you tell someone you're struggling with depression?
in Psychology ·
Look, I’m no expert, and I don't claim to have all the answers here. But I really hope you find the guts to realize that struggling with mental health isn't something to be ashamed of. You aren't being aggressive, and your condition isn't hurting anyone around you. Maybe your parents have noticed something is off, too, but they're probably just as scared as you are. It would go a long way if you just went to them and said, "Hey, I don't feel right." Your depression might be whispering in your ear that this is all nonsense, but the fact remains: you feel terrible for a reason, and nobody should have to suffer through that. 🙂
What causes fetishes?
in Psychology ·
I think I read somewhere that Freud developed this theory where fetishes stem from whatever object or body part someone happens to be staring at when they first glance away after seeing their mother naked. 😁 Yeah, I know, it’s ridiculous.
Who is your celebrity look-alike?

After running the analysis, the closest match was Mischa Barton—just a hair higher than Madonna. Dammit, what does that say about me?
P.S. Mischa is hot. 🙂

Katie Holmes, Katharine Hepburn, plus Meryl Streep, Uma Thurman, even Shirley Temple. 🙂 Honestly, I don't have a single "serious" photo. After analyzing which shot looks most accurate, I ended up with a slightly higher percentage for Mischa Barton than Madonna. Dammit, who do I even look like?
The Brothers Grimm (by Terry Gilliam)

If this movie manages to nail an atmosphere even half as good as my favorite, Brazil, then we're in for a treat.
Film vs. Book (Topic of interest!!)

Well, looking at just this summer, most movies are some kind of adaptation, a reboot, a remake, or whatever. Only a small portion are original. Generally speaking, I think there are still slightly more "original" films out there, but they're definitely becoming rarer. 😢

Nobody even comes close to Guybrush. 😁
