    I’ve been saving so much money since I made the switch. I’m in huge debit so I really need it. I’m also taking home all the salads people bring to potlucks that no one else will eat. One of the family sized salads last me a week. I’ll be pooping green, but eating free.






  • I’ve had these. Usually related to those I am close with. Dreams of bad things happening to them or dreams of intense jealousy. They make me wake up in a panic. I’m 37 now but only been getting help I the last year or so.

    My therapist advised me that (at least in my case) these don’t nessary reflect who I am in waking world. the reasons these dreams disturb me is because they counter my views of myself.

    It’s like if I dream of myself committing a grievously violent murder and I wake up disturbed. That doesn’t mean I have a desire to hurt people it means the opposite.

    Your own case may be different but you can’t really stop bad dreams. Dreams are a symtomn of bad sleep so you can work on improving that. What you can do is learn how to process a dream and have it affect you less negatively.

    Good luck.



  • I provide my usual advice. Volunteer. It’s local, you meet people, usually the kind of people who Volunteer for things (meaning good people). Even if you don’t find a date it can build your social network which will help.

    As for specially fellow Ace people you may try pride, or LGBTQA+ events. Somtimes (the ones that accept us) will have some Ace representation.

    One alternative may be to look in the Nerodivergent spaces, if you happen to a part of that community.

    Not to assume. But someone back on reddit mentioned that a study had shown disproportionate number of us are in the autism spectrum. This is true in my case and with the few other Ace I’ve met offline. When I eventually get back into dating I may give Hiki a shot along with the volunteering.
