Briefly spoke to a nice older gentleman at the Asian grocer this morning. Idk why i stop to write about him but he just had a gravity to him. He was about 6’2-6’3ish, salt and pepper buzz against a medium darkish complexion. He wasn’t clean shaven. He had a light wash blue jeans with a brown belt, white undershirt and a red flannel buttoned mostly up. He looked beautiful.

He was buying vegetables, strawberry drink and duck eggs.

He said he “eats like on a bird” except on Fridays.

So I was losing my mind on an edible last night right? Just completely fucking losing it. Did not have the faculties to count to 4 for manual breathing type shit. Could not tell how quickly I was breathing.

Looked up calming breath tutorials and everything.

Was tucked in and etc and Dray came in and kissed me on the forehead. I don’t think he thought I was super awake and it was just so sweet it made me cry on the spot.

Also when I’m freaking out it oscillates between “it’s so over” and “we’re so back” like immediately. But it’s like “shame spike” and “I’m okay, I’m okay, I’m okay, I’m good.” On repeat.

But yeah idk I hope I remember how it felt when he kissed my forehead that was so nice and I haven’t felt that warm and fuzzy in a while I love it I love him.

Help I’m the oldest daughter.

No really i had to emotionally regulate my mom when I was a very little kid and it continued into adulthood and now I don’t know how to regulate or even acknowledge my own emotions.

I was so concerned with keeping her happy because if she was mad the whole family suffered. I had to fix it. I was the only one that could fix it because I was my mothers favorite.

I feel like an anxious neurotic emotionally walled off mess.

I don’t know how to be vulnerable so I’m just scared.

Not having needs was preferable to making her mad when I had them. Instead I just ate, like my father.

I don’t know how to fix this. I don’t know how to be emotionally vulnerable because I don’t know how to articulate my needs without guilt.

Need a bigger size in shorts? “I’m sorry but these don’t fit” I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry it’s on a loop in my head all the time.

I’m constantly trying to read other people and COMBINED with my body issues when I have a brief respite after the vibe check it’s immediate criticism that comes from within because I take up too much space and I could look so much better and isn’t it a shame that people are meaner to you when you’re fat.

It’s not outright, but when I was thin people were so SOOOOO much nicer to me.

I wish I could smoke. But that’s probably not a good idea. If I want to smoke or drink alone it’s not the best idea.

I’m just so scared.

A good thing about dating an ADHDer is that we genuinely love with no games because we lack the attention and patience required to play a game with someone.

[pathologising]

I think my healing really began escalating once I stopped identifying so strongly with my suffering, once I stopped treating misery like it was an intrinsic aspect of myself and my personhood.

something so special about taking care of a boy who never received the proper love and attention when he was younger. they’re so delicate and sweet and get so shy when you compliment and try to take care of them. allowing them to feel safe and comfortable enough to always come to you for help or advice or a shoulder to cry on. like come here sweet boy i’ll hold you forever and let you cry on my chest while i run my fingers through your hair and tell you everything will be ok if we’re together :’)

I took too many pills yesterday. I’m still feeling it today.

I’m trying to get better.

Update: went pretty well.

He was glad I found something that helped.

But god I feel so many emotions sometimes about it.

I’m not sure how to tell my bf I’ve started ADD meds. I’m also just now getting used to them and I’m so scared he’ll get mad at me for not telling him.

He called earlier before he went into work and said “hey you seem kind of off, what’s up?” And I just couldn’t tell him because I wanted to tell him face to face.

I’m going to either tonight or tomorrow. But god I’m so scared. His ex was ADHD and apparently it was a fucking mess.

But they’ve helped me so much just within the last week it’s incredible. I’ve gotten a lot of work done and I feel so much better emotionally it’s been a godsend.

I’m just scared that he’ll think less of me or be angry with me because of this change I’ve made. But for once in my life my brain is quiet. I’m not trapped in a constant loop of “why haven’t you done this yet, you have work to do, stop thinking about random bullshit, no you’re not hungry you’re bored, you need to get up, you have to do this, why can’t you just get up. Other people are able to do this, why can’t you? Stop being a stupid lazy fuck and just GET UP” and I can’t. Physically can’t fucking do it.

It’s quiet. For the first time in my life my brain is quiet. Things are easier. I feel better.

*Opens Google to check if sheep can get sunburn*

*30 minutes later realise that haven't looked up anything about sheep cuz I immediately forgot and spent the past half hour learning about moths cuz I wanted to know what their hair is made of*

[trickstertime]

By the way, sheep CAN get sunburn just after they've been shaved and a moth's hair is not hair like ours and is actually more similar to really long scales. Did you know some moths don't even have mouths? Wild

[trickstertime]

Ah. Yea. Fair

[trickstertime]

HAHHAAAA! YEAH BAYBEEEE

So I’ve just started taking ADHD meds to help and even on a low dose right now things are a lot better. So I have something to say.

ALL THIS TIME TASKS WERE EASY FOR NEUROTYPICALS?! I’m sorry?! I spend all the time feeling INFERIOR and like absolute garbage because people could do tasks better than me and it turns out its because for them it’s EASY?!

WHAT THE FUCK?!

Sometimes you are the person who needs to listen the most to your own advice. It is amazing to be a good friend, a kind person, but you have to share that same sympathy with yourself, you have to practice it too, you have to care for yourself, allow yourself to feel good. Not because you're afraid of sounding hypocritical to others when you don't follow your own advice, but because you know your worth, and you know that no matter how different you are from other people, you still matter as much as they do.
