“Tired of mourning etc etc” (2021) ◇ When grief becomes routine

[hellomelancholic]

Direct byproduct of being neurodivergent and growing up isolated from your peergroup is having no idea when it's appropriate to define someone as your friend

[hellomelancholic]

Is this person I met yesterday my friend? What about this person I've been talking to every day for three months? What about this person I've known since middle school? Is friend a title I have to earn? What are the limits of friendship? Is it a static state, make-or-break, or is it some endless dance-dance-revolution style cavalcade of prompts and challenges and social cues I have to hit perfectly to keep it up? Does it bend? Does it break? I don't fucking know man I just work here.

i still remember when the dude doing my autism assessment asked me how many friends I had, and I was like "okay but how are we defining friendship?" and he just like, stared at me for a second and then wrote down some notes

i saw a video of emergency vehicles rushing down an israeli highway to some location or another and I thought to myself, what a luxury it is to have wide and clear roads, working ambulances, running hospitals, vehicles to rescue people with and places to take them to where they will be guaranteed well-equipped care. what wealth, the asphalt laid on stolen land, operating rooms resting on foundations that displaced many thousands, surgical instruments funded by the exploitation of a captive population, surgeons deploying techniques developed from medical experimentation delivered by bullet and bomb. how fortunate, to have sirens that tell you to hide, shelters to hide in, and the reassurance that if you're hurt, help will come, with not a thought paid to the deprivations that made it all possible. what am I meant to feel but disgust?

People just don't understand how when you have abandonment wounds but you're also healing that like 90% of the time you get your feelings hurt you have to like spiritually grab yourself by the ankles to keep yourself from running away like I have to laugh at the imagery even though the reality obviously isn't funny cause it is such a true and crazy part about childhood wounds is like even when you get the therapy and understand the mechanisms ultimately when feelings hurt mode is a go you basically have to wrestle yourself to choose different behavior and the force sometimes necessary to not retreat or wall up is so crazy to exert inwardly lmao

Almost feels like I'm watching myself and my reactions from the outside and am being like don't you fucking dare at my own impulses
