Sounds like your throat chakra was unblocked.

Welcome guys!! @Preety_India If you just report the post/report the PM then all the mods can see what you've reported and someone should be able to help ?

@ADVAIT the issue is, your post could literally lead to dire consequences. It would be less problematic to suggest for people try achieving clear skin with their mindset through subliminals or command cell therapy for example. (Not saying this stuff is true, but it's an interesting perspective). Have all humans survived tremendous situations? Wim Hof to the extreme? What are you actually talking about... This is foolish and dangerous.

I haven't had SSRIs and everyone and their case is different, but for me- pretty much yeah. Consistent meditation and introspection helped me get over depression around 5-10 years ago (as well as other emotional issues over the years). The most simplest solutions when taken seriously work wonders. Especially when you're in a toxic victim mindset (I'm not saying all depression links to this) it's easy to brush off solutions such as thorough journalling and mindfulness practices. I just want to say this to anyone struggling: it is VERY POSSIBLE to get over this stuff completely, even more than merely coping with it. Whether that be on your own, with a therapist and CBT or whatever, you have hope!! Edit: oops just checked the quoted post is from 2 months ago

Although I don't agree with everything being said (the recent heated discussion). Lovely girlies @Khr @Preety_India Use this as a learning experience, if you're going round in circles during arguments, increase your awareness/mindfulness and take care of yourselves please! Your peace of mind is more important than getting at the other person (which turns into an endless argument and waste of time!) ?? Try putting yourself in the other person's shoes (even if you hate where they're coming from), empathize deeply and move on! You can't change anyone with such arguments.

@Leo Gura It's impossible for you to fully understand women then and the struggles they go through?

What? ?? PICK ME!! Jk ? I have seen a few women on here care without much bias, I think those who are left brained especially. E.g @modmyth I think.

@Elevated Interesting perspective and insightful, thanks! Each stage is so broad that the (well-intended) judgment often accompanying labelling using SD stages can be limiting. May have a look at the books you recommended above

Whilst recently the Dalai Lama said he would wish his successor to be attractive if she was a woman ???‍♀️ Make up your minds lads. The wisest men for millenia were blue, including those enlightened. Perhaps many of their ideas are turquoise but still have attachments to blue ideology. (In regards to some teachers today too, not fully sure).

You can still care about someone whilst simultaneously breaking up with them. Say for example, your sexual needs weren't being met in a relationship even after putting in the effort to sort it out - e.g. they just didn't want to have sex anymore but you did. You can still care about someone's wellbeing and life whilst no longer being satisfied in a relationship with them (as you also care about your own rship desires being met). I think if you're in love with someone, it's not a question of variation 1 or variation 2- because they are both involved. This is because romantic love isn't romantic unconditional love. Or else people would stay in a relationship regardless of how many times a person cheats or does other questionable things. The popular notion of the love languages (including quality time, acts of service etc ) themselves involve caring about what the other person has to offer, since they are an act of love and about fulfilling your individual desires in a relationship.

Beautiful! I like the dice idea. I'd love to do my first retreat this year! Hopefully lockdown ends here by summer so I can book a place to stay. ?

If you're giving someone happiness, it's temporary happiness because it doesn't last after you're not with the person, and needs to keep being refilled. This is why it should ideally be created internally for everyone, but there's nothing wrong with supporting someone to turn internally (it's up to them to take it on board though). Ultimately whether it be relationships, money, success or whatever you desire, the supposed happiness/positive feeling of having the external things is being chased. This feeling can be created internally without any of those external things anyway! (E.g simply visualizing any of your desires can give you the feeling of having it- when you work on maintaining such a feeling, you realize you don't NEED the external thing anyway!) But ofc you can still want things without having a need for them. So you can still want a relationship, knowing that it's simply the icing on top of the (already delicious) cake. So you can still be a decent partner (arguably a better partner) when the neediness is gone. Yeah in many cases talking to a high quality person can be the stepping stones in the right direction to also come up with solutions for how they can help themselves on their own too. As bottling emotions from others isn't so much the issue, it's bottling them from yourself - releasing and facing your problems- whether that be in the form of a journal, self talk or talking/therapy with other people is the medium. Bottling emotions from others becomes a big issue when a person is repressing the issue from themselves whilst thinking it's being solved (e.g. keeping busy instead of facing the problems).

Well good thing you're a stunning (& wise) girl now Fair enough and good for you! You're super young and it's something you could put more effort into the future if you wanted to anyway.

This forum is like 80% men, so you're only seeing a disproportionate amount of issues by a lot of guys here too. No doubt, for an insecure woman to read some of these threads would hurt. Such as the big emphasis on looks over anything. In addition to society already having way higher beauty standards for women anyway, with certain upbringings and wiring heightening these insecurities. (The main reasons I've ever wished I was a guy in the past ? so I can not give a shit about how I look and be more carefree in regards to this). Looks (and personality) don't seem to matter at allll if a girl wants sex with almost any guy ? But when it comes to dating apparently they do. Trust issues forming after women being with players or being used sexually and hence the "men are trash" rhetoric resulting is ofc a popular notion and also leads to limiting beliefs in dating (more so than for men). There is also the general lack of understanding between the sexes which happens here too which causes a lot of the frustrations. I don't imagine Mathew Hussey has ever said how important looks are for women in attraction and would get a lot of hate for it! His advice is decent for the non-physical parts of dating and relationships though.
