MODERATORS
For those like me that had never seen this before: https://www.vogue.com/article/paris-hilton-debunks-stop-being-poor-shirt
This apparently never happened.
is the real slogan that much better though lol
Yeah but it's funny
Lmao true
But like, also demonstrably not true. Which is kinda funny tbh.
We are a paradox.
My first instinct was to call this a repost as I remember seeing this like 4 years ago on reddit but this is a different platform altogether.
Though it Is worth the reminder to Treat yo self
Should you even call something out as a repost when the last time it was posted was 4 years ago?
After all, millions of people have been born and grown up during that time
I mean yeah that’s true.
But on reddit reposts were everywhere and it was very common for bots to karma farm by doing so, so calling it out had a purpose.
I know I posted this before, but it's an important reminder.
I sometimes wonder how much my childhood shortened my lifespan. I think work wouldn't top that stress I had.
Have you taken the ACES test? I thought it was a great eye opener. At least it was for me.
Just did, didn't cover anything relating to my issues. I scored a 1, and that's only because "Was a household member depressed or mentally ill" fits me.
I'm glad I've never taken it before because I definitely would've interpreted it as a sign that I didn't really experience anything bad and that I'm just so bad at everything I can't function in even a normal environment. At least now I can stand up for myself and say that's not true. Still sucks to feel unseen by a test whose name claims to be general.
On the ACES assessment, every single one of the 10 things asked about is known to cause neurological issues in children which persist throughout their lives. Only a 0 is insignificant. A 1 is very significant. I also scored "low" and thought it didn't mean anything, but I've since learned every single one means a lot.
Even my 1 feels a bit cheated, since I'm assuming the intent of that question was someone in my family other than me has depression. I guess you can say it correctly predicted me having high risk, but it's obvious from the kinds of questions asked that that's mostly accidental, and that my struggles weren't really considered.
I scored an eight and while I don't let it define me, it has been helpful for some stuff.
I hope this result doesn't put you off of looking for the help you need. Remember that this is just a tool out of many available now and while this wasn't for you, that doesn't mean there's not something for you out there.
Well, I mostly solved the depression with estrogen, and coincidentally I'm seeing a therapist tomorrow for what I think to be CPTSD and some other symptoms I don't know much about. I'm suddenly collecting an avalanche of diagnoses it would seem.

it's not encouraging to think of someone being in med school and not reading the course description before signing up. if there was no course description that's almost even worse
There might have been a less than clear course description. Also, it may have been the lack of sleep.
I'd love to see the bibliography from that elective
