I’ve been an avid kilt wearer for about a year, usually when I attend parties but sometimes for work as well. I’ve had 3 or 4 instances over the past year where a woman has lifted up my kilt (I’m assuming ) to see if I’m wearing it in the traditional Scottish manner and then run off giggling when I turn around to confront her about it. It really pisses me off because if I went and lifted up a woman’s skirt I would end up getting beaten up and/or arrested for sexual harassment, but no one gives a shit about it when I’m on the receiving end.

I just sent an important message (about three paragraphs long) and I reread it around ~10 times before sending. I'd get to the end, and everything would sound alright, but I'd still need to go back and MAKE SURE. I don't know why I do this, but I have similar tendencies when it comes to checking if I locked a door or turned something off.

Being in love with you from a distance is torture. I just want to protect you, make you laugh, talk to you about everything, look at your eyes, and so much more. I just want to love you. You are within my arms reach but just out of my grasp. I love you!

I'm just sick of feeling constantly harassed for money. I can't walk down the high street without bumping into four "Chuggers" aka Charity Muggers and the Big Issue lady, who also expects me to buy her a coffee. Like I'm an unemployed Millennial, not Tony bloody Stark. Can't I just say Happy Birthday and wish you a good one like I did every year until this point?

Last night me and my girlfriend were talking about sex and how she never wants to do it anymore , she said it felt like a chore and that her ex (who she has a kid with) could last way longer. That really hurt me and I told her I just wouldn't have sex with her, she replied with "If you don't F*ck me on Valentine's I'm gonna get in my car and find someone who will". I just rolled over and went to sleep, I feel so sad and I don't even know what to do..

The entire time she was out with him she was lying to me and saying she was out with a female friend and now I know I had the right not to trust her. I'm devastated and needed to get this off my chest, I'm sorry.

If you are staying awake late at night, not going to sleep because you regret having wasted your day, just go to sleep. Wake up at a decent time the next day and give it a try. Don't ruin tomorrow just because today sucked. I'm going to sleep now!

Seriously, fuck those people. As a person living with autism, it really hits hard when I see them trying to masquerade the benefits of vaccines with autism. It doesn’t even make sense! Autism is completely genetic. Considering I live a completely normal life except for having to take a few tablets in the morning, I think getting “autism” is a whole lot better than fucking Tuberculosis.

However, that never happens because im afraid that every time i share my oppinion or try to join in on a joke in the comments im going to get ignored or downvoted. In comments on my favourite topics i see so many people with great taste in jokes and interesting personalities and i want to make a digital approach or make my presence known but i am afraid to do so. What can you do to help yourself overcome this?

Last time I was hugged was when I was 20 and leaving my parents. Some of you might think this is pathetic, but there are people like me who never get affection or attention. I might never have a relationship, or have bonds and friendship, but at least I'll die having experienced this one thing.

These dogs have been bred to disaster and are battling with so many completely and totally unnecessary health complications. It’s not “cute” , it’s not “trendy”, it’s a living animal that can’t breathe because its anatomy is fucked up. I have zero respect to people who enable this industry to spiral out of control while perfectly healthy animals are euthanized in shelters.

It's like they can't imagine someone doing something mean on purpose. I've always wondered what backgrounds people like this came from, but I can't figure it out. I'm talking about people in their 20s, who are totally shocked when someone does anything mean to them. Like does it just boil down to a lack of experience with people? But if you have no experience, why would you assume they're good people?

I often hear that when your gut tells you something, it's usually right. But how does this work when you're anxious about every little thing? I never know if it's a true warning or just my anxiety making something out of nothing. It's like my gut is crying wolf all the time.

When will people finally open their eyes and see that mental illness is real and it sucks. It doesn’t mean that if you don’t have any experience with it that it’s not there. It is and for some people mental illness is their everyday life and it affects them in many ways.

I was searching entry-level jobs, and one said that they wanted 3+ years of experience for something and a few more years experience in something else. How is it an entry-level job when you need years of experience to get it? It’s so frustrating having to weed though those listings.

Of late, I get furious when I listen to day to day sounds which feel like nails on a blackboard to me. For instance, at home I get bugged/ irritated when I hear somebody coughing or my mom throwing utensils (she vents out by putting down utensils noisily when she is angry). At the workplace, I'm easily irked by a loud ringtone or someone's booming voice. How do I specifically learn to tune out/ stop reacting to this? I said not have this problem before since I used to listen to music on my headphones most of the time, but I can't keep that up forever, and there's only a limit to which supervisors will tolerate me tuning myself out at the workplace.

I’m going crazy and my anxiety is through the fucking roof because of applying and waiting. It feels like a waste, I’m likely not getting accepted to the one I want. I want to get drunk and forget, but I have to stop doing irresponsible things or nobody will accept me. I’m in pain from worrying, I can’t breathe, and that is all.

For the first time in over ten years, I’m seeking help. For depression, anxiety, a severe relapse in my eating disorder, unhealthy coping mechanisms that led me to feel even worse about myself, and finally ending a toxic on-off relationship that lasted almost ten years as well. I’m so scared, and embarrassed, and ashamed that I can’t fix myself, but I finally had to realize that sometimes you just need some help.

So I suggested a restaurant to my boyfriend that I really liked. He went with his friends and came home and was completely pissed off that I recommended it. He started listing all the reasons why it was terrible and accused me of being a liar, asking me if I had even eaten there before, and then testing me to see if I remembered the soup base for the hot pot to prove that I had eaten there. Then he told me that my friends had shitty taste for liking it etc. and called me a liar again. Is this a massive red flag?

Bro. I didn’t understand why you were pointing at my car and honking incessantly at me when I was turning to leave the gas station. As I was leaving I looked you in the eyes for a split second to give you the finger, then drove off wondering why you were being so aggressive. I got home and realized I had forgotten to screw on the cap on my gas tank. I’m an utter asshole and I apologize for my actions, you unsung hero.

Holding hands may seem like an innocent gesture, but they show more than a simple interlocking of fingers. Your hands are one of the most essential parts of your body: you build with them, feed with them, hold with them, touch with them, fight with them; they are the tools of the human body. To take a hold of another’s hand is to break from living individually. It is to link yourself to another being, to momentarily entwine your life with another’s, to promise, for a moment, that you need not face the world alone. More simple, more aesthetically naive than other forms of affection, i.e kissing, hugging, sexing.., the act of holding hands is often trivialized in its true implications.

Is there a half-decent way to tell my girlfriend she should pay more attention to her butt hygiene? It can smell pretty bad and be a major turn-off during sex. I know she barely scrubs her body during shower, could that be the reason? I also know it's normal for an ass to smell, but i've had sex with other girls that weren't that foul. Please help me, I love my girlfriend very much and would love her ass to smell not so bad :/

We recently had twins, and my husband makes a point of saying “Dada” to the babies in front of me, so I play along and say “Mama” as if I’m fighting back. But I watch them overnight, and when I’m alone with them I also whisper “dada” to them, because he’s such a good dad and I want him to have the joy of being their first word.

Life has finally gotten back to stable again and I have picked up writing which is something I used to do often. My therapist has been encouraging with sharing some of the articles I've been working on so I'll leave the link below. No pressure just doing what she told me to do.

just because it doesn't contain additives doesn't been its not addictive. you can get addicted to ANYTHING especially if you smoke to make yourself feel better when you're unhappy. and smoking every day is going to fuck with your lungs just as cigarette smoke is. i'm not saying weed is something terrible, and i'm even for the legalization of it, but please stop acting like you're so much better than people who smoke cigarettes or drink

Seriously, all people do is call attention to it and tell you you’re a horrible person and need to get it in order, even when they think you might have anger issues. I hate myself as it is, but it’s the only emotional issue that people will basically agree with you and treat you like you’re a despicable excuse for a person. No one will help. They just expect you to fix it.

Follow a schedule, follow a to do list, follow some structured way someone on youtube said, follow ten different threads you find online.

I am 38 and pretty even tempered except around my period and when things start spinning off into the deep end. I cant remember a time when i have handled stress and anxiety calmly and think it is the cause for my many break ups and loss of friendships, mostly at my decision. I have tried and am still trying everything in my power but the ugly monster still lurks in my body waiting to get out and go crazy. Has anyone been medicated for such anger and could you please let me know how you feel about this medication?

today I looked in the mirror and saw past the unwashed hair past the tired eyes past the blemishes past what some call “flaws” and I saw me. The woman who’s open to give & receive love the woman who cares so much about the world the woman who tries her best the woman who’s had it rough at times and is standing here today. Today I saw the good in myself and today I recognize this good in you. I hope you take the time today to see yourself as you truly are: beautiful & infinite.

Obviously this specific memory is just an example but I feel like smells are very particular and can trigger a memory more vividly than any other sense. Also, everytime a new season begins and the smell of the air changes I become very nostalgic and have a rush of memories from that season from various different years.

So, this past year I’ve gotten a lot more social in school. I’ve gotten more social with the guys, but not with the girls. I’m always having trouble talking to them because I used to be really close friends because of someone who is now a pervert and widely considered a weirdo. How can I get more social with the girls? I’m not addicted to porn or anything like that, I just rarely talk to them and need to learn how

We were just watching Hot Fuzz (great movie btw) and she was constantly saying stuff like, "oh that'd never happen" and "well why'd he do that? " DING DING DING you found the joke, congrats, now please stop interrupting the movie. It's a silly movie, silly things will happen. I'm just glad it wasn't my first time seeing it or I'd be livid.

I hadn’t showered in a week, I didn’t brush my teeth either during this time (but I did use mouthwash most of the days). I was finally able to push myself to do it for a job interview ! Now if I get this job I just have to push myself through work every day...

I was shaking the whole time but I said what I meant to and this is a major win for me. Of course I’m going to ruminate on the situation now and have trouble sleeping for that reason tonight but hopefully tomorrow night will be better. And yeah, the yelling was really that bad.

Any thought about wanting to live was extinguished this morning. Watching his grandmother begging him to come back, his mother had to be restrained and this therapist rovering around telling me it's going to be okay. He just didn't die, I died too. How cannot I not join him?

I always say to myself I will answer later, after I think of something good to say, but I end up not texting back for days. Its probably why I lost all of my friends. I was too nervous to speak to them and ended up not speaking to them at all

I often find myself trapped inside my head, and struggle with maintaining conversations with friends, coworkers, and family. I just don’t know what to talk about or how to contribute to conversations a lot of the time. This fuels a cycle of isolating to avoid the situation. Does anyone have any book recommendations that help with talking to people more?

I saw it’s going to rain for the rest of the day once I get home from work, I got really excited and I can’t wait to sit at home to watch and listen to the rain to calm me down, it helps so much. I hope you guys are having a great Monday.

In a few hours, I'll have to speak in front of a group of people who have loved and will miss his presence in their lives. I'm pretty nervous and of course I miss him a lot. Could use some good vibes. ?

I’m not months clean from cutting, I don’t really have anyone to share this information with, since my friends don’t like talking to me very much. I’d like to know some ways I can stop myself since I’ve been feeling worse lately. Thank You!

My fingers are starting to look normal again and the urge to bite them is slowly dissipating. I’ve been biting my nails for as long as I can remember and have tried to quit many times. This time I’m quitting for real

It’s the only thing I can exert any effort into. I’ll sit in the same position for hours and just close and reopen the same apps, refresh, and keep scrolling. It’s such a waste of time and makes me angry at myself but I can’t even bear the thought of doing anything.

Like, you have every single sign of a mental illness, even diagnosed, but you still feel like you’re faking it. You think that everyone else thinks you’re faking it; I don’t know why I feel like this, but it’s one of the worst feelings I get and it makes everything feel 20x worse. Does anyone else get this feeling?

I'm sorry for posting my face on a bunch of subreddits like a fucking idiot. Thought it would be funny but I just annoyed everyone and wasted their time. You don't have to forgive me, but I wanted to apologise. -blanktity13

Just here to remind everyone and myself that a new month starts this week. Although you may not know where you will be at the end you know where you can start. It’s all about starting small. You got this!

Some, like this last one, are when I'm doing exercise, meditation, TV/gaming, or other things meant to make my mind take a load off things. Talking to family, friends and doctors aren't helping either. Should I check myself in by this point?

All week I've been overthinking every interaction I have with the people I'm close to and overanalyzing any comments they might make.

I've totally convinced myself that my fiancé actually hates me and thinks I'm incompetent garbage and it feels bad, man.

Without fail, I see at least one person I know every week, and it makes me feel great. Edit: I live in a small town in America that has a website dedicated to news, community events, small businesses and the like. There's a page with the arrest reports that gets updated weekly.

It’s so heartbreaking to lose a friend you’ve known for ages. It’s hard to talk about losing friendships and grieving over that loss because we’re socialized to value romantic partners more than friends or platonic companionship. I stopped talking to a close friend a year ago and I’m still hurt by it all...

I don't know if I'd say I've beaten it just yet, but I feel pretty good for the most part. For ya'll struggling right now, I know what it's like. I don't know how long this will last, but I believe in myself and I believe you guys have got the strength the battle your own battles too.

Living off the fruits and leafs found on your path with no worries no plans just "live for today" doesn't have to be desert island, at least for it's not. Comment on what would you find on this tropical island - can be anything EDIT:

Dang, This post resonated with people a lot! What I do to feel like I was on an Hawaiian beach is putting a livecam stream of a Hawaiian beach on. It can be found by Googling Waikiki beach meditation @explore.org <3
