Does anybody else feel empathy for inanimate objects?

I think it may be what they call anthropomorphism. I often find myself apologizing to things that I damage or throw away, sometimes out loud! Then I feel silly for doing it :)

Is it weird that I'm compelled to be polite to AI?

The other night it apologized profusely for giving me the wrong answers, and I said something like, "Don't worry, we all make mistakes. You still found it faster than I could have."! Of course it thanked me for being so understanding, and for a minute I legit felt like I just had a human interaction with someone.

Anyone else do this?

Sawed my arm off for no good reason

I was sitting in a livingroom chair and realized that my left arm was in my lap. I had apparently sawed it off for some reason, and the stump had healed but I could tell that the arm itself was dead (cold and bluish gray).

I regretted it immensely and had no idea why I had done it. The last thing I remember is trying to figure out how to dispose of it. Creepy.

Just wondering why Reddit's filters keep removing my posts

I've posted to many communities for years with no problem, but two in r/prison were removed immediately. One was a pic of my ingredients for a "jailhouse burrito" asking for suggestions. The other was asking the best & worst foods they ever got on their trays and from commisary. Don't think I broke any rules there.

I messaged the mods days ago on both of them but never heard back. I know that there's a prison food sub, but it's a small private community and nobody's ever on it. I've seen other food-related posts on the main sub.

Anyway, any advice is appreciated. Thanks so much!!!

I was hooked on 7oh for over a year, starting at 40-60mg/day and ending at 200-400mg. The last week I did a quick taper back down to 60mg, then jumped off.

I was expecting all kinds of horrible mental and physical withdrawal symptoms, but all I really got were a runny nose and some hot flashes/cold sweats .

Now I *will* state that I'm prescribed 4mg/day of lorazepam, and I took a little extra for the first few days. I'm sure that it helped quite a bit, but I think that I would have been fine without it judging by the lack of physical symptoms.

I was a little dysphoric at times during the first week but that may have been due to all the lorazepam, as too much tends to make me depressed.

Anyway, I hope you're all doing well. Keep fighting the good fight :)

Hormel beef tamales with tortilla chips and non-alcoholic margarita mix with salt, chili powder and hot pepper. I didn't even think to add cheese until after I finished it :(

I'm actually trying to gain a little weight (male, 5'9", 135 lbs.), so this should help a bit :)
