does it count as a proper roller derby bruise if i got it from putting my wrist guards on too tight

#ash's personal tag #i've still not had a proper bruise from derby #the ones from the other week were painful but just never visible #i don't get it how am i not bruising at all except from the goddamn wristguard #i just wanna be like yo check out this bruise #also i think i turned my ankle a little #not from derby but from stumbling whilst trying to sit on a bench and catching my foot #then whacking myself in the knee with a metal briefcase trying to regain my balance and not face plant

I had my first proper training session today for roller derby and I'm just so happy because I've finally found a sport I really enjoy and am motivated to do the stretches and exercises to get better at it and it's so much fun and the people are so great and one of the women is skating in the world cup next week which is wild (also she's Czech so her derby name is Czech...and next week in the world cup she's skating as Czech for Czech which is wild) and honestly I am still a little shocked that I've found a sport I love this much

#ash's personal tag #roller derby #there's another non binary person on the team too their name is sonic bc they're fast and used to have blue hair #and someone said to one of the other rookies 'by the way sonic's pronouns are they/them/their'#and i said 'for what it's worth i'm a they too'#and they were like okay cool sorted #and one of the other rookies asked me about it to make sure she got it right #and it's just so good and lovely #and you get to skate REAL FAST (so far i can do 3 1/3 laps in 1 minute and gotta be able to do 27 in 5 to pass minimum skills which is wild #but i reckon it wont take me too long to get there as long as i work hard)#and it's a full contact combat sport which i think is good for me bc i had a lot of anger when i was younger and this will help #and everyone's SO NICE and cool and i'm just real hype about it

Internet shopping when you have ADHD and have not taken your meds is very risky I am now going to be the proud owner of 3 identical jumpers (bc they look like chainmail so for cosplay purposes) and 10 more dice sets

You know what really bothers me? My therapist told me CBT is 100% effective for depression. That's absolute bullshit. You can't say something is '100% effective but you have to put in the work' because if it isn't working that then makes you feel like you're not working hard enough and you blame yourself for not getting better and spiral. And nothing is ever 100% effective in medicine whether it's physical or mental. Not to mention there's been a lot of recent studies about CBT to try to figure out if it's actually as effective as initially thought-spoiler alert, it probably isn't. Due to publication bias, placebo effect, control conditions in trials, and also quality of trials-not to mention with mental disorders you don't always have concrete measuring tools and a lot has to be anecdotal-CBT most likely isn't as effective as it was thought to be. It's effective sure, but not 100%. Nothing is.

#ash's personal tag #i knew it wasnt 100%#but i just did some research and found some articles and meta-analysis of studies and trials #and i feel like i should call my therapist out on it #depression cw #also i'm gonna look into finding another therapist bc i dont get along with her as well as i would like #and i dont think the sessions are helping #but i need them to

So turns out my cousin is friends with Isaac Hempstead Wright (bran from game of thrones) bc he's in the flat above hers at uni how weird

One great thing about working in retail is that when pretty girls try on pretty dresses I can tell them how amazing they look without it being weird

#ash's personal tag #being super gay and being paid for it #honestly though the same with older ladies #and anyone really #they try clothes on and are telling me things they're insecure about then they find something they feel good in and it's so nice #they get so happy

I went to see a roller derby game (game? Match?) today it was amazing I never thought I would enjoy sport that much? But there were so many people with bright hair or girls with short hair and tattoos and the whole aesthetic was amazing and it's also a really cool sport and I just really enjoyed it

#ash's personal tag #what if I look better on paper than in person #I know I have a tonne of experience but what if I suck #what if I get so anxious on the day that I freeze and can't stop shaking #I have to get up at 5 on the day and get a train at 6.18 it's a 2 hour journey #I'm very excited but so afraid
