I got scabies :( I’m doing the treatment, I cleaned my apartment, it’s fine. I get stress induced hives often, so the itch doesn’t bother me that much.
I just don’t know how this happened. I’m very well known amongst my friends and family to hate and go out of my way to avoid physical touch. Im confident it’s definitely scabies (not hives) because of the burrows and stuff, so I’m confused.
Any insight?
I’ve been playing DnD with a group of friends for a very long time, but in the last year it has started to make me very anxious.
Our dm likes a good story, and good stories have complex interpersonal dynamics and conflicts. Of course I can tell the difference between real life and rp, but I’ve been feeling very emotional after sessions. Like, anxiety and sadness as if my friends are actually mad at me or a goofy, fantasy conflict will remind me of a real conflict I’ve been through and my feelings get all muddy and tangled so it feel like real life feelings.
Then I feel so much shame, like, look at me getting upset about play pretend. Idk.
Does anyone have advice for keeping dnd fun or how to play through mental health issues?
Because I know it’s my own anxieties and compulsions, not anything anyone else is doing, but I didn’t know how to manage myself
