Anybody out there?

Hello, Clarissa here. It’s nice to meet you.

I’m a pilot on the Hail Mary, though with my crew mates’ death, I find myself taking up every job on this ship.

This is an advice / ask blog. I’m not sure if I will get interaction, but I created this so hopefully I could help someone.

The advice can be for anything, stressful situations, needing help with studying habits, fights with friends, etc. I enjoy helping people and giving advice, and I’ve been told I’m rather good at it. Anon asks are welcomed along with non-anon ones. I’ll try to answer asks as soon as I get them, though if serious enough, I may need to touch up on my psychology knowledge beforehand. 

Be rest assured none of your asks will ever be judged.

The asks can also be talking casually, about anything. I enjoy hearing about people’s day and cool things they’ve seen.

Until I get asks, I’ll mostly be posting about my life. I hope you’ll enjoy coming along for the ride.

You may also call me “Chlorine”, as it’s a nickname that was assigned to me when I was younger. 

Tag guide:

#ClarrissasAdvice - answering asks asking for advice + giving advice unrelated to asks

#ClarrissaAnswers - answering asks not related to asking for advice.

#ClarrissaTalks - talking about anything, often my day or experiences I've had recently.

These are my current ones, but I may make others if needed.

Current anons sign-offs claimed:

None

OOC intro ver:

This is a RP / ask blog of my PHM oc, Clarissa! The AU they’re in is rather different, as Ryland is dead in this one. 

This blog is run by @averageoscfan , who is a minor. Any NSFW asks will be ignored, and the sender will be blocked.

You’ll occasionally see drawings accompanying answers to asks, but not often, as I have anemia that is causing pretty bad chronic fatigue, so I need to pace myself. Asks talking/asking about my OC’s life are more common to get drawings, or even small comics. 

It’s also rare for me to reach out to other RP blogs due to social anxiety, so opening up a RP interaction may take a bit for me to answer due to fear.

DNI is pretty simple:

Racists, homophobes, ableist, etc.

People who try to flirt with me or send sexual asks.

Both me and this character are on the aroace spectrum and uncomfortable with sexual topics.

I'm also a pretty big mental health advocate, anyone who says anything about certain mental illnesses being "evil" gets blocked, this includes mental illness that are often demonized and/or commonly have low empathy. You cannot pick and chose who you care for during advocacy.

DMs are open, but I may not respond to most. Blank blogs who send DMs are likely to be ignored for my own safety as a minor, especially if you don’t make the purpose for DM’ing clear before hand.

On the topic of food I miss; I have no hot chocolate with me. (Not food, but you get it)

Yes, an adult woman on a mission to save the world really wants some hot chocolate. it's my favorite drink. I find it odd it's not on here considering we have coffee. Maybe I just forgot to ask.

God, I really miss sushi.

I've been remembering more things now lately, and while I can't complain (I would rather remember my life), most of them aren't very pleasant.

My memory was a little fuzzy when I first came out of my coma, but it turns out the gaps in my memory is worse than I thought. I also assumed I had a better life, but I suppose not.

I'm rather tired today.

I know this kind of post is overdone, but do remember to drink and eat something.

It doesn't matter if you have to add flavors to your water, you're still drinking something. It doesn't matter if it's something small, eating anything is still good. That's especially true if you can't stomach anything other than flavored or small or "Artificial".

While this won't fix all your problems, forgetting to/not eating and drinking properly absolutely can and does affect your mental state.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but you don't need to stay in relationships (romantic or otherwise) where you feel unhappy.

You don't need a "valid reason" to cut a relationship off.

They don't need to do a Super Bad Thing™ for it to be "okay" for you to leave.

If you feel uncared for, or they're doing things that keep hurting you, or anything else that makes you want to leave, you can leave. It's okay.

You're not a horrible person for cutting contact. You're not a horrible person for wanting a break from the relationship, or ending it entirely.

You don't have to stay in contact with someone for *any* reason. You're a person too. You have the right to leave.

Even if they promised to change, even if they said they're "Sorry", even if "they're nice/good to you/not like this most of the time", even if you're "not sure if they're ACTUALLY bad/manipulative/toxic/etc". Your pain is a valid reason for cutting them off.

If you're safe and able to do so, please do. You, and your happiness, is worth it.
