Intrusive Thoughts are unwanted thoughts or images that you find distressing and/or disturbing.
more information on what intrusive thoughts are!
what intrusive thoughts are: https://moodsmith.com/intrusive-thoughts/
how to cope with them: https://www.betterhelp.com/advice/how-to/how-to-stop-intrusive-thoughts-and-live-your-life/
a lot of children - especially mentally ill children - end up traumatized not because someone was specifically hurting them but because their needs weren’t being met, or because their problems weren’t being seen, or because they were rendered particularly vulnerable by other aspects of their identity, like queerness or race.
and it can be hard to look at your childhood and go “I was hurt” and also know that the hurt wasn’t deliberate. it’s uniquely painful to not have someone to blame.
you do not have to excuse the people who hurt you, even if it was unintentional. & acknowledging your own pain does not necessarily entail blaming them for it.
you are allowed to do what you need to do in order to recover.
Also:
“they did the best they could/with what they had” and “it wasn’t (good) enough” are two things that can and must be true at the same time
Brushing your teeth at least once every day is better than none at all.
A few hours of sleep is better than none.
A few minutes outside for fresh air is better than none.
Writing a few paragraphs of the essay today is better than procrastinating till later.
Doing something is better than nothing (of course there is exception for some cases).
Do things at a pace which makes you comfortable whilst allowing you to make progress.
You can do this!
i mean this in the nicest way possible you guys but you NEED to take better care of yourselves online. getting severely anxious about mass quantities of horrible things you cant change every single day is normal considering the internet’s ability to educate on worldwide issues, it shows that you have empathy and that you truly do care. but relentless knowledge of constant suffering on this scale is NOT something humans are psychologically equipped to handle. it’s okay to shut off. it’s okay to just take a break and enjoy yourself for a while in your own localized space
My brother asked me a question today and I responded (obviously) and then my mom goes "what did he just ask you?" and I said "idk, I forgot" and she said
"that's fucking stupid"
And now I can't focus on anything.. I've been zoned out for the past hour..

All statistics are related to those with trichotillomania and what type of hair they pull out.
18.46% of people pull out their eyebrows
3.04% of people pull out their beard hair
4.75% pull at their arm hair
5.76% pull at their leg hair
31.48% pull out their scalp hair
17.56% pull out their eyelashes
14.67% pull out their pubic hair
4.38% pull other body hairs
These statistics are based on a survey by TrichStop,
“A combination of neurobiological, genetic, behavioral, environmental, and cognitive factors all influence the onset of OCD in vulnerable individuals. Recent studies on brain images of people with and without OCD indicate that OCD symptoms are a malfunction in communication signals between different areas of the brain… The neurotransmitters that send messages to these parts of the brain are also different in people with OCD. Dopamine, serotonin, and glutamate are all affected…
Women have slightly higher rates of OCD than men.
Lifetime prevalence of OCD rates is 2.3%
Half of all adults with OCD experience significant impairment
35% of adults have moderate impairment
14% of adults with OCD have a mild impairment
People between the ages of 18 – 29 have the highest levels of OCD
10% of OCD sufferers question their sexuality as a part of the disease ”

You know I love how so many people are like “respect boundaries respect consent” until it’s time to respect people w OCD who can’t shake hands or be touched or when an autistic person tells their family member they can’t give hugs or when a chronically ill person tells you “no I can’t do this thing” and you think “maybe if I just make them do it anyway it’ll make them stronger” or when a mentally ill person or someone who has been abused is like “I don’t want to be around this person/thing it’s triggering” and you get people guilting them to “just get over it”
If you’re about consent and boundaries, good, you should be, but remember to keep that energy when moms of autistic kids are like “I still hug my child even tho it makes them have panic attacks” or when someone’s like “yeah they said they don’t want to be around this person cause it’s “triggering” but I’m their friend so they should do it for me” or when a disabled person says they can’t go up the stairs and you’re begging them to “try anyway”
Don’t lose that mindset, or that energy when it’s time to respect the boundaries or consent of mentally ill and disabled people.

I have two bedtime moods:
“It’s only 8 pm and I feel like I’m gonna pass out on my feet.”
“Wait when did it become 3 am?”
Bold of you to assume that both can’t happen in the same night
My mom: 100% of the time, she (me) forgets *insert thing here*
Me: I'm telling you, I'm super forgetful
Mom: no you're not
WHAT
According to her I don't pay attention to the things I do but like, should I? I feel like people just remember the things they need to do without any issue. They don't need to "pay attention" or work hard to remember stuff. If I want to remember to do something, I have to keep repeating it in my head. Do people have to do that too? I always thought that remembering things just came natural to others
I've brought up a possibility of ADHD and she said "why would you want that? That's stupid" so that's out of the question.. Could this be anything else? Idk
My family sucks
They sent me to the store for corn husks and ziploc bags (we're making tamales) and I'm trying to rush in and out cause my grandpa is waiting for me. So my sister texts me to bring a bag of ice and jalapeños. Now, because she sent me a picture of the jalapeños, I didn't see the text about the ice. So I come back to my grandparents house without ice and I start getting shit for not reading about it. Then, turns out I grabbed the whole jalapeños instead of the sliced ones and I get called useless and dumb. Fuck that shit
what if things go well? that’s a possibility.
October is both Adhd Awareness Month AND LGBT History Month so if you’re both then prepare to be extremely powerful
OCD: **decides to start acting up**
Me: Don't fall for the trap.
OCD: **overwhelming sense of dread**
Me: I can't argue that logic.
you know, life doesn’t have to be competitive. you don’t have to get in the very best university; you don’t have to get the highest paying career there is. you don’t need to compare and compete with everyone else in the world. you need to do what’s right for you. you need to relax, take a breath, and say ‘what do i want, for myself, to live as i want to’. and, if that involves high ambitions, then that’s fine. because you chose those ambitions on what you desire as an individual, and not on what is expected in order to succeed. let’s be ourselves this year.
