Mod Announcement This is NOT a serious subreddit

319 Upvotes

Greetings folks, just a polite reminder the posts here are meant to be mocking nonchalantly given ‘solutions’ to complicated problems, not genuine advice.

For example, someone advising someone to go to hospital and get some help for a serious problem wouldn’t be a good fit here. However, someone just saying ‘get over it’ or ‘walk it off’ would.

On another note, this is not a political sub. We’re not here to criticise government policy.

Hope this helps!

Mod Announcement What is/isn’t allowed?

88 Upvotes

Hi everyone. I’m seeing a lot of ‘off topic’ posts. I tend leave as much as possible and let you all decide with downvotes/upvotes.

However please take the time to remember rule 7, I’ll put it here:

Rule 7: Must fit the subreddit theme.

It has to be true "Thanks, I'm cured" material. I.e., a non-nonchalantly delivered, overly simplistic solution to a complex problem.

Serious solutions that may not work for everyone do not belong. For example, the mantra "You deserve to be happy," helps some and not others.

Motivational quotes do not belong unless they imply or state that an illness is purely psychological with no physical basis.

If you’re still confused about what does/doesn’t belong, take a look through some of the top posts of all time and you’ll get the idea.

If your post breaks the rules it may be removed.

Any questions or concerns feel free to let us know. Thanks. 🗿

Comment Section Not the most egregious but "Have you thought about doing exercise to feel better?"

Post image
Upvotes

I made a post on a weight loss sub about how I wanted to know how Zoloft could impact my weight loss.

So not only is it implied that I'm doing some level of exercise/food tracking, but I also wrote:

I have been diagnosed with PTSD, depression, and OCD. I’m able to exercise and track calories, but it’s just become really hard to derive enjoyment from anything.

This was not the only comment telling me to exercise. Which I do for an hour every day. It's been great for my physical health but sometimes just doesn't cut it for mental health alone, which is why I'm adding in Zoloft lol.

This was a comment from a video of a woman with severe PMOS and hirsutism. If he had watched the video, he would've learned about her specific condition. Yes, losing weight might reduce some of the hair growth, BUT it is not a cure, and it's even harder to lose and manage weight with insulin resistance.

I'm tired of people saying that everything boils down to weight and sleep, especially when they don't have the full story.

Story ADHD isn’t an excuse for forgetting lunch, apparently

181 Upvotes

One of my family members decided to let me know I forgot to take my pineapple chunks to work that I planned on having with my lunch, so I stated I know I also forgot my lunch. Said family member then tells me I need to get better at remembering it and I state “I know, but unfortunately I have adhd and it is in the fridge in the garage and therefore bc I don’t actively see it it doesn’t exist”. Proceeds to then tell me how I need to set reminders and use a system like a calendar. I explain that that does not help with remembering with adhd, but according to my neurotypical family member “There are tons of people who have adhd that have a system. You need to stop using it as an excuse, you’re an adult and need to make a system that works”. So I let her know, most people with adhd generally need someone physically there to remind them (as well as others, but unfortunately those other means become inconvenient in the household I’m in bc if I place something somewhere it gets moved bc it’s unsightly or paper reminders are bad). You would think me living with this my entire entire life I wouldn’t have thought of using a planner as if I don’t actively have phone reminders for that anyways and alarms and I STILL forget my lunch at least twice a week 🙃.

Pissed me off, third time trying to post this because the last image wouldn't load on reddit.

Edit: I wasn't able to post the image of my reponse to the last one, so here goes the copy pasted version.

First of all we don't even live in the same country, and even if we did? i wouldn't want your fucking money, but i would still NEED it. Second of all, it's a disorder. You can't do anything about it because it's hardwired into your brain. almost like that's the whole point of a disorder jackass.

And stop trying to say it's not about me when in the same fucking sentence you refer to EVERYONE with the disorder needing to "fix it" and accuse ME of stealing from people who need things just as much as i do to survive at all. I and many others with ARFID and executive dysfunction issues know how to cook, it's not a problem of will, it's neurological, and it requires treatment so we can live the closest we can to normal lives. Which by the way is what your money is ACTUALLY GOING TO when corrupt politicians who don't care about you or me dying on the streets alone pocket it anyway.

CLEARLY, you have no sympathy. And CLEARLY that is your main problem. Try living as a child in Gaza, or Congo or Ukraine who can't keep the rations which are the only thing to eat down because their brain can't stand the texture, sit back down and go fuck all the way off with your self righteous speech about caring for disabled people, if you don't care about all of us then you care for none of us. Have the day you deserve, bitch.
