I’m curious about whether or not sh-ing automatically means the person must have some sort of mental health condition/disorder.

I understand that ofc it increases the chances of having a mental disorder a lot if you struggle with sh, but is it something that means you definitely do have some mental condition you should be diagnosed with?

Like can someone with no mental health conditions/disorders or neurodivergence (depression, anxiety, PTSD, personality/mood disorders, ADHD/ADD, schizophrenia, OCD, ED’s, etc.) sh? Or is it like sh cannot exist without the presence of some mental illness?

I’ve been wanting to get a mental health assessment for a while now and am wondering if UCLA CAPS or other UCLA health services that students have access to has professionals who can give diagnoses?

From what I’ve heard it seems that people use CAPS for therapy the most. I’m not super interested in that, I just want a psychologist or psychiatrist who can do evaluations and give me a diagnosis for anything that might be off (mentally-wise).

Is my understanding that once I complete a triage assessment I can ask them to then refer to me a UCLA psychiatrist correct? Or is it like I have to do therapy sessions first if I want a referral to a psychiatrist?

Lately I keep seeing people say that older cameras make pictures have a nicer vibe because they don't have that overly sharp, extremely detailed, and intensley automatically color-graded look that the most recent iphones have. A lot of people said that's why they prefer using iphones from 2013-2017 or digicams from the early 2000s.

The oldest phone I have is a samsung from 2018, but I also have an old Canon Powershot Pro1 that my dad bought back in 2004 when me and my siblings were born. I'm interested in using it to take photos, but I have no idea how digicams work.

I opened it up to find that it already has a Li-ion Battery Pack BP-511 and a SanDisk 4GB CF Card inside. I understand I need to buy a charger for the battery. Does anyone have any recommendations for where I can find one? Or will any BP-511 charger off of Amazon work? I'm also not sure how exporting photos from the CF Card works, but do I just have to buy any CF Card Reader USB?

But, I'm also still not 100% committed to buying all this stuff because there's no guarantee that the camera will even still work. I don't know what condition it's in since it hasn't been touched in like 17 years after what might be around 5 years of use. Considering that it might not even be functional, I'm still unsure of if I should just use the 2018 samsung and not bother with the digicam at all (but my curiosity and nostalgia of it being in my childhood is convincing me to try and get it working).

Anyways, any tips would be appreciated ty!

I hope this doesn’t sound like glorifying but TW!!

If I haven’t b/p for a long time, I find myself forgetting about how viscous and awful this cycle feels. So when I end up relapsing and planning out a b/p session, I find myself getting excited which makes me feel guilty for looking forward to something that I shouldn’t be doing.

Like I’m relapsing in 🤮 b/p specifically and it’s been over a year (maybe even 2 years) and I literally can’t sleep from how much I’m anticipating this tomr but I’m also like wow that’s fucked up bc I know my ass is NOT going to feel that way once I’m actually b/p-ing 💀💀

It’s happened twice in the past 7 days where I’ve gotten to the bus stop with like 3 minutes to spare but the bus driver just refuses open the doors even though there’s hella space inside. Both times it was the same bus driver and I haven’t had it happen with anyone else, so idk what’s going on. Why aren’t they letting people on and ignoring the people standing in front of the bus doors for like 3 minutes until driving off when there’s so much space left on the bus? Is there some policy change that I don’t know abt?

TW: fatspo + fatphobia

My friend is on >!edtwt!< and so I assume they must have some form of an ed (idk I’ve never really asked).

Their account on there is a secret but I found it without their knowledge and while they don’t post anything themselves, their following is almost EXCLUSIVELY all >!fatspo!< accounts.

Obviously I don’t care that they’re in online disordered spaces or that they’re disordered bc duh so am I, but what I don’t understand is why they’re >!fatphobic!< ?? Like is it really so much to ask that one have an ed ?? And not ??? Be evil and body shame others who have nothing to do with you ???? It’s really not that hard ????????

Like it makes me wonder “how can they seriously not see this as wrong?”
