A World With No More Cramps?! - Always Open
This podcast is so important🙏
Barbara...I was drinking water when you asked, "Do you think there would be less war?" and almost died from drowning. Damnit Barb!
So for the context of telling a child "You're okay, you're okay", that can actually be a strategy to help a child focus on their present situation rather than be overwhelmed by their emotions. Full support for kids to have a full range of emotions, and after trying to ease or calm them the follow up is to check and see if they're injured and have them describe what they're feeling.
To the girl who is in a stressful job here is some advice from someone who been at a car part store for 5 years who gets pallet of different items about every day
1.try to make things less stressful like we give funny names to some of are part go like "the tower of power"
2. Practice it take like 6+ months before you be very confident were you know were everything Is just do your best you will get there
3. Take notes or find out how you remember stuff I personally remember number so I try to tie it with that
If you see this I hope it helps and good luck

OMG I LOVE MOMIJI!!! That's so cute Ky named her puppy after him
On the subject of not experiencing physical pain or emotional pain, to expand upon Ky's point about how physical pain teaches babies self-preservation, I would argue that emotional pain is equally important for the same reason, even if it absolutely sucks to experience. Experiencing emotional pain is to acknowledge that we are not okay, and then drive us to figure out why. What sucks is how hard it can be to develop that self-awareness and to feel like we are spiraling when we're depressed, but acknowledging why we may feel sad or angry or afraid is the only way to truly heal from it and grow. Not experiencing it means one would never improve, never feel compelled to change circumstances, especially when people really only change when the pain of keeping things as they are outweighs the fear of change.
Put another way, there is an evolutionary reason why babies cry: something is off and they need to be cared for. They need to be fed, cleaned, put down to sleep, or just want to be held and comforted. When we get older, we get self-sufficient in feeding ourselves, cleaning ourselves, etc, but the evolutionary need to be comforted in times of emotional distress remains, and so, we cry. And in being comforted during such emotional distress, we feel loved. As much as pain of all kinds sucks, it is necessary, and not experiencing it runs the risk of things being neglected. Just as numbness is a physical symptom of many illnesses, so to is emotional numbness a symptom of mental illness.
My first job was at McDonald's inside a walmart when i was 17. I remember the first time it got super busy i was super overwhelming. But i asked questions, took notes, and shadowed, and after I'd say a few weeks i was like Barbara i was taking orders without looking at the screen lmao 😂
As a cis male I'd give up emotional pain a thousand times over. With the caveat that I can still feel emotional pleasure. The crippling loneliness I feel a majority of the time and anxiety of worrying about my personal connections takes up so much of my energy. That if I didn't feel it, I'd have better connections and have the confidence that helps form those connections or at least open me up to more opportunities to form them.
*as a male*
For the first writer, take your time. Don't expect to be 100% perfect at your job right off the bat. If you make a mistake, ask for help and learn from that mistake. You'll get it eventually.
For the guy asking for advice about being an uncle, just be there for them. Be a set of ears that they can go to without being afraid.
With all due respect, men do have these sorts of close relationships. I have male friends I hug every time we see eachother, motivate and complement eachother. This has nothing to do with being a woman. It about finding the right friends. I love how fearless and crazy honey badgers are. That doesn't mean I have to become a honey badger to be fearless. Nor does wearing a honey badger coat make me a honey badger. I can't just turn up to a zoo and demand they let me in the honey badger enclosure. That's insane.
I have always *actively* worked with others to improve and protect their mental wellbeing. But there needs to be a line drawn in the sand here. This ideology isn't helping people. If you saw a child cutting themselves because they saw it on ticktock, would you leave them to it as long as they are not harming anyone else because that is their 'coping mechanism'?
