So when intimacy disappears:
Men don’t “complain”
They collapse inward, isolate, or externalize distress
Many don’t even recognize what’s missing—only the symptoms

The winter months, with their short daylight hours and holidays, can be a source of distress for some people.

I hate the fact that this dog is in no way hurt or in distress, but he whines violently until someone comes and stares at him while he exists.

Today the orb revealed chimney
#Thyrus CW: Size-Shifting
The jolly red elf leapt from his sleigh,
and pondered the rooftop he stood on today.
No brick in sight, a cause for distress.
But Jolly St. Nick knew how to ingress.
A twitch of the nose, a decrease in size.
The children wake up to their prize

I actually hate Christmas and even I’ve been like, wait. Is it December? Sort of ironic that one side has been shouting about their “right to say Merry Christmas“ or whatever and there’s too much economic distress to celebrate.

Yeah I don't want to go into details publicly but there's one example that comes to mind where a colleague arrived at a slightly different conclusion than I did about something and it caused me INTENSE distress in a way that feels very OCD-coded

Desperation, I bet the Daily Heil and Daily Distress absolutely mopped it up.

Biden obtained some degree of student debt relief before the SCOTUS stopped him. Trump will garnish wages of student loan borrowers in distress. Need any more proof as to who is looking out for this country and who isn't?

The Trump administration will officially begin garnishing wages from people who default on their student loans, the Department of Education announced on Tuesday—a move that could impact millions ...

... get stuck in sucking bogs around there and die.
Apparently he did that a lot.
On rainy, stormy nights campers around there have seen a child crying for its mother in a field that disappears and various figures who appear to be in distress who vanish. These have been linked to Tom Fool's victims.

Using daily US data, this paper on the COVID-19 pandemic finds that the welfare costs of staying at home (like lost social interaction or mental distress) were highest for Asian populations, followed by Hispanic, white, black, and native populations. doi.org/10.1080/12265934.20...

So I’ve been informed by a friend who saw last night’s crash out that

“seeking distress is a form of seeking comfort because you feel you deserve and should be in distress and it's wrong if you are not”

So i can’t just lean into discomfort, damn. I’m better at leaning into discomfort than joy

Tele–Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for the Treatment of Diabetes-Related Distress in Individuals With Diabetes Mellitus: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials
Tele–Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for the Treatment of Diabetes-Related Distress in Individuals With Diabetes Mellitus: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials
Background: Diabetes-related distress (DD) is highly prevalent among individuals with diabetes mellitus (DM), significantly impacting their quality of life. Tele-Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (Tele-CBT) has demonstrated potential in reducing psychological distress among DM individuals. Notably, however, previous research has predominantly focused on in-person CBT, leaving the efficacy of Tele-CBT for managing DM-related psychological symptoms insufficiently characterized. Objective: This study aims to review the application of Tele-CBT for psychological distress in individuals with DM and evaluate its effects on DD, severity of depressive and anxiety symptoms, and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels. Methods: Electronic searches were conducted in PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and PsycINFO for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) evaluating Tele-CBT interventions in individuals with DM. The search scope spanned from database inception to May 2025. Literature screening, data extraction, and methodological quality assessment were independently performed by two reviewers. Standardized mean differences (SMD) were used to quantify relative treatment effects, with data analyzed using Stata (version 17.0). This protocol was prospectively registered in PROSPERO (CRD420251066506). Results: A total of 11 studies involving 2,186 participants were included. Meta-analysis revealed that DM individuals receiving Tele-CBT exhibited significantly lower post-intervention scores in DD [SMD = -0.34, 95% CI (-0.55 to -0.12), P < 0.001], depression [SMD = -0.66, 95% CI (-1.01 to -0.31), P < 0.001], anxiety [SMD = -0.26, 95% CI (-0.63 to 0.12), P = 0.022], and HbA1c levels [SMD = -0.13, 95% CI (-0.26 to -0.00), P = 0.74] compared to controls. Subgroup analyses by intervention duration and guidance type were performed for DD and depression outcomes. Results indicated that professionally guided Tele-CBT was more effective than self-guided approaches in reducing DD [SMD = -0.42, 95% CI (-0.57 to -0.26), P < 0.183] and depression [SMD = -0.76, 95% CI (-1.03 to -0.50), P = 0.001]. Interventions ≤8 weeks showed greater improvements in DD [SMD = -0.51, 95% CI (-0.69 to -0.34), P = 0.892] and depression [SMD = -0.87, 95% CI (-1.21 to -0.53), P = 0.039] than those >8 weeks. Conclusions: Tele-CBT represents a cost-effective and efficacious intervention for ameliorating psychological distress and HbA1c levels in DM individuals, serving as a viable alternative to in-person CBT. However, findings should be interpreted with caution due to limited study numbers, warranting further high-quality research to validate these results. Clinical Trial: This protocol was prospectively registered in PROSPERO (CRD420251066506).

OCD isn't a thing you have to have had since you were young either. You can just develop it.
You can actively be contributing to people developing OCD or people who already have it developing new triggers.
You *have* to be cognizant of this when you're giving your PSAs!
