I noticed I have 1988/2000 credits left in my Adobe, but I haven’t used Adobe Firefly this month at all. I used it recently in the last October, and my credits always reset every month. I checked my Firefly generation history and there’s no any new generated images since October. I have used Photoshop and InDesign this month only.

Do you have any idea what’s going on? I hope no one uses my Adobe account.

I have a commission to do in four languages (Finnish, Northern Sami, Inari Sami and Skolt Sami). I finished the Finnish version so I started to make a Northern Sami version by copying the Finnish file with Save As method into Creative Cloud (the Finnish file is also in Creative Cloud). While I edited the Northen Sami version and went back to the Finnish file, I noticed the file had copied all the edits from the Northern Sami file into the Finnish file!! I was shocked since I had been editing Northern Sami file for hours. 😵‍💫

As time passed, I went back to the files… and now the Northern Sami file was in Finnish version and the Finnish version in Northern Sami version. This has happened to me before so I guess Creative Cloud files synchronize with copy files?

How would I fix this issue, and how should I make the Inari Sami and the Skolt Sami copies without having this issue again? I accidentally saved a copy of the Finnish version into the computer by save as method (I was supposed to make a pdf export file), and it was safe without any changes from the Northern Sami copy. So should I make a copy from the Finnish file into the computer (not using Creative Cloud) when I’m going to make Inari Sami and Skolt Sami versions?

I like to read and draw comics, and I have always wanted to create a graphic novel story. But when I get a good idea for a story, it’s difficult for me to make a good plot based on the idea and finish the project. I usually start to find bad parts of the idea (just like glichés etc.), and I find some plotwists unlogic. And sometimes I even give up with the story since worrying makes me get bored of it.

Maybe I just have a wrong technique during storymaking, or the ideas just don’t work, I don’t know. Have you ever had this issue, and how did you deal with it?

I’ve had this issue for almost 10 years since my old computer had a lot of issues after Windows 10 upgrade. And after that, I have always been scared of malfunctioning computers I have had.

Now I have this problem again. I have a 2023 model MacBook with Ventura 13.5 on it. I’ve never updated/upgraded it (based partly on my fear of updates since updates/upgrades used to ruin my previous Windows PCs, partly I just didn’t know that Apple makes new OSs every year that makes older OSs outdated very early). Now internet is slow in my computer (idk if it’s because of the OS or because of some malware?), InDesign crashes sometimes and my antivirus blocks me to visit some official Finnish websites (just like The Finnish Government website). I’m so stressed and scared that I haven’t use my MacBook for almost two weeks. I’m too scared to fix the issue or upgrade my MacBook on my own alone.

I just hate this fear/phobia since I need to use computer in my studies (and it’s important to use digital devices in this Western society). I have a graphic design commission to do and my fear procrastinates me to finish my job. If you have this fear/phobia as well, how do you deal with it?

I’m a 24-year-old female (born and raised as woman) who likes to wear feminine clothing such as dresses, skirts, heels, purses, earrings, put a makeup etc. My mom tries often to control my clothing: she doesn’t like if I’m wearing heels or put lipstick etc.

And yeah, of course this triggers me since I’m a 24-year-old and she usually treats me like a child (controlling my clothing is not the only issue with her). I’m not an autistic who needs a lot of support in my everyday life (I live alone far away from my family and I study in university). And my clothing doesn’t diverge from ’normal clothing’ very much so I wonder what’s the deal with my mom. 😅

What about you? Do you have the same experiences as me? And how do you deal with it?

Idk what would be the right flair for this post. I thought if it would be social struggles, family or family/member. 🫠 You can correct of my flair is incorrect.
