Comment on Is it weird for parents to keep saying "I love you", then asks "Do you love me?"

Homie I have been seeing you make posts like this for months and I gotta say its not normal and I am sorry. I dont ask me kids that shit. I tell them that I love them and pelt them with kisses whether they like it or not because I won’t be alive forever and I want them to know. Kids dont get the gravity of that and they shouldn’t have to.

I mean sorry if I keep making these weird posts… but like its better than keeping thoughts in my head… bottling up everything only makes it worse…
The thing with internet is that you can vent any time you want… seeking professional help takes time, like they’re not on call 24/7 to listen to you…
Sometimes I wish they created an actual AI (like an actual Artificial General Intelligence, not those LLM shit) for you to talk to.
Sometimes I wish I could visit an alternate timeline where that version of my self “figured it out”… so maybe I could ask him for advice…

Keep posting. I just want you to know that what you are being put through is not normal. You’re not supposed to hang your insecurities on your child. Nobody has it “figured out”, some people are just in a good place for them and some not and that can change in an instant.

Ask away. Talking about this stuff is usually a good thing. If anyone doesn’t like it, they can go elsewhere.

“Help” not being available 24/7 can be a good thing, especially when it’s not “real” help but whatever online community/person/substance/activity you have access to in the moment. I mean that, from experience, it can be good to have a dedicated time to tackle emotions and thoughts instead of drowning in a sea of them 24/7

Quick question for you…what is it you need to “figure out?”
