I just want to thank you. You gave me some new insights.

I'm still not sure if i need to do something about it, the same way that some people live happily being over weight. But the comparison gave me a new understanding of the issue.

I think a better way to put my question is: do you think yo need help? You said ASPD is bad. Do you agree, independently of what others say, that what you are is bad and needs to be fixed?

That's the conflict I still don't know the answer. If those diagnosis are as real as a broken bone, is it a disease that needs healing or a personality trait?

From everything you told me it seems to me you think it is something that needs healing, and you seem to be more rational than I am, so your opinion is being very useful and important. One thing is a "normal" person who has nothing to lose saying we need help, the other is someone else being on this side of the bridge.

I just want the answer to be "no, they are wrong and they just don't like that which is different", but I don't know if my wish is the reality.

You have a very admirable take on all these questions. It's hard to believe you have a disorder.

And on that note, do you think you do? From the comments it seems like you agree you have a disorder that needs fixing and is bad, as you put it.

I have a hard time with these diagnostics that seem to change a lot (a broken bone had always been a broken bone and needs healing). How far are things just different perspectives or just different personalities or disorders?

I have many of the same behaviors as people from many "disorders", and also from the same zodiac sign. If I changed them I would just be another person, not necessarily more healthy. And the same with everyone.

I'm not sure what I'm getting at. It's just that you have a much more controversial diagnosis and you seem more mentally stable than the vast majority I hear talking. It makes me question these diagnosis more than I do with myself. But then again, you seem more rational than I am, and with the least socially acceptable diagnosis and you seem to agree with it, so I think it's just me making excuses for my disorder and it all makes sense...

How do you feel about society's view on your diagnosis?

I'm told I may have bpd and I feel horrible about it, I know bpd people are hated and the support are for people who have to deal with them. However everywhere I read your diagnosis is seen as the worst. Basically looks like a name society came up for people they hate.

I'm not sure if my reading is correct. How do you think people see it and how do you feel about it? Do you agree with whatever the general opinion is?

Reading here it seems to be even worse than i thought. If you tell people about they will think you are a murdered/sadist/demon. Just the name they gave you must be harder than whatever symptoms you have...

How to use facebook without an account? (aussie.zone)

submitted 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

I posted this on the facebook lemmy, but I guess there's no one there. So maybe I can get help here.

Where I live (Australia), specially in smaller towns, facebook is a requirement. Gumtree is dead, so any second hand products, room rental and even jobs are done only through facebook.

I tried a few times creating a fake account but quickly they lock my account, even if I don’t use it. I’m not sure how they know my data is fake, but I’d rather smash my face on the wall than giving zuckeberg any personal info.

Is there any way? Any specific things I need to look for when creating an account? I tried using believable names and email, but no luck…

This is hard for me. I absolutely hate facebook and I want it to die. But I have to accept that I’m surrounded by people who don’t care if they are ####### over by an american billionaire, and I have to conform if I want to interact with them. So any help is appreciated.

More specifically, I wanted to find second hand objects, jobs and maybe rent a room. All of which seems to be a facebook only thing, unfortunately.

Also, is there like a proxy website where I can do that without going to the actual facebook? Like youtube, instagram and others have websites like this. But when I search for "facebook proxy" I only find people so desperate to use it that they want to circumvent work or school networks that block it.

Edit: following recommendations, I made an account with a burner number I had here (I have a few usually just in case). I'll update if that still gets me banned. Thanks for all replies!

Edit2: Next day, I'm not banned yet. Phone number is what they want, as I feared. It's what defines you as an individual for them to invest in. It is very sad, but it is what it is.

Anyone wanting to do this, even if you make an account, try as much as you can to find what you need outside and only use it if there's no other option. You are giving them money when you interact with them.

Me! I worked most of my life with 3D and Photoshop. Some stuff i did might have increased some sales, some might have been fun, but all were useless and mostly advertisement. I always wondered, if everyone working in ads died, what effect would it have on humanity? Rich people would be worse, but humanity as a whole would be better.

That's just my field. I can think of quite a few areas that are just harmful and exists mostly to make rich richer.

Australian news. Defend genocide or human extinction? Or maybe both? (aussie.zone)

I never paid attention to the newspapers, so I don’t know if it’s always like this.

All defending maximum murder or suffering (through genocide or global warming). What the hell is wrong with this country?

If these are the sources of information of a population it’s not hard to imagine the result. I am really hoping it’s just the rich playing with their toys (the newspapers) the way they like, but that it is not really effective in brainwashing the population. That they question what is fed to them.

Anyway, I just thought it amazing and to share my depression with more people. Maybe that’s just every day news and nothing unusual. I imagine it’s probably all owned by the same zionist or super villain or something.

Since the image can’t be read, the one on the left says that if Australia doesn’t support the international court on netanyahuhaha the country becomes terrorist. The second is the typical “people are not supporting my genocide, I’m being holocausted”. The third is asking for harsher punishment for those “fools” destroying the economy and wasting people’s time with imaginary environment issues that could lead to human extinction.

edit. I posted to lemmy.world by mistake. Lemmy is so confusing... edit2. Is the image showing? It didn't show the first try.
