I hate that when I make a small mistake - and sometimes it's not even a mistake, per se - I catastrophize. Every little thing I do wrong, no matter how minor, bounces around my brain screaming, "You a terrible person and you will never recover from this."

It's frustrating because, even though I can recognize that my brain just Does This, I can't seem to control it. I've tried so many different methods of accepting it, moving on and trying to do better but my brain still wants to beat me up for it.

Anyway, just fun Brain Things.

The other day I read a Poem that this post just reminded me of that resonated too well,

"it's emotionally exhausting,

being so self aware,

yet so mentally unwell.

i'm a witness to my own crimes."

I was never taught how to succeed or truly love myself, I was only ever taught how to people please because of the adults it benefitted around me. Now I’m an adult with no idea what I actually love doing and all these big questions about what am I doing in my life circle me and at the end of the day if I’m not serving someone else I’m doing nothing and I’m disgusted that I was brainwashed this way

There's a bunch of adhd advice out there that's like "people with adhd tend to work better under deadlines due to the anxiety so here are ways to artificially induce a stress response in order to get you to get work done" and it's like well what if I don't want to be stressed out all the time in order to function

I, as a 26 year old adult in 2024, just had a nightmare about slenderman trying to get me. Come on.

I don’t know when

but at some point I stopped grieving the people that hurt me the most that I had to let go

and started grieving for the versions of me I couldn’t become because they took away parts of me that make me impossible to complete

so I’ve been left trying to replace these pieces remaking them from scratch

more sturdy and permanent

That’s the human equivalant of the “sir are you aware you are a cat” meme.

I thought I was Jewish when I was her age but I was actually Catholic so when my Jewish friends invited me to give a prayer at his house during Chanukah and I recited “Our Father who art in heaven…”, my friend’s mom got on her knees and said to my face in a super soft voice, “Joey, I think you’re catholic not Jewish,” in front of everyone and I thought I was in trouble and I started crying.
