In need of boot recommendation

Can’t wear anything else comfortably anymore so I need some boots. Looking for boots with similar vibes as doc martins but that won’t break the bank

This is not rage bait

I know this is a nuanced topic and I know there is a lot of subjectivity to it. I am not trying to stir shit. I have ADHD and my brain needs to understand because I’m hyperfixated and can’t move on. Can someone please explain the differences between the main metal subgenres and give me band examples for each so I can better place the sound differences? I went to my first rock/metal festival and I am having a come down

Any metalhead girlies go to concerts alone?

None of my friends listen to this type of music and I feel like I miss out on seeing bands I want to see because I’m afraid to go alone. I’ve watched sets alone at festivals but was never fully alone because a friend would be at a different set but still at the festival. Any tips for going alone? Maybe I’m just in my head. I like to be able to do things on my time and go where I wanna go without worrying about someone else but safety is obviously a huge factor

ELI5: what’s the difference between punk/emo/alt/rock/metal?

I genuinely don’t understand what classifies a band/music into these categories and then there’s so many sub genres like death metal, metalcore, nu metal. My brain does not compute. Examples and non examples of bands/songs would be very helpful

A tip for next year

How about we don’t intentionally try to throw or drop people who are crowd surfing? Saw it happen multiple times and read multiple posts about it on FB, including it happening to kids. Literally almost got into a fight with a man after he threw a woman and I, a similar sized woman, caught basically her entire weight with my body. I get it, crowd surfing can get annoying but that doesn’t justify intentionally trying to cause someone harm

Ubering

Don’t wanna spend the money but seems worth it to avoid looking for parking. Anyone else uber in the past? This is my first year attending. Should I get dropped off at Lowe’s or somewhere close to avoid some of the traffic?

I am trying to find a therapist but have a whole host of concerns I want to discuss and address. It seems like a lot of therapists specialize in a select few areas and while sure, they’re aware of other issues or therapies, they don’t specialize in them. How do I find someone who covers all the areas? Do I pick one that specializes in my most pressing concern?

For reference, I am an overly self aware and avoidant person. I have suffered from OCD and anxiety for years with mild depression. I’m starting to wonder more and more if I possibly have ADHD as well. How do I find the right fit for all of this? Who do I need to see that can not only help me navigate these issues but also who can give me a formal diagnosis in the case meds could be beneficial? I want to do talk therapy and I’m hesitant to access medication without a full evaluation, not just a speculation of a therapist

I think people who send Snapchats and/or post pictures/videos of themselves crying, don’t actually want support or sympathy. They just want attention.

Taking pics of yourself crying immediately makes me lose any empathy I have for the situation (yes, I know I need to reflect on that). It’s so dumb to me and I think people look stupid when they do it.
