so fucking proud to be the person in my friend group(s) that will infodump about greek mythology (and art history and most other myth) whenever their hyperfixations do any kind of crossover with it. i always feel a little cringe picking their hyperfixation up and explaining how it relates to mine but they always get excited too since it gives more context for the designs and lore. like hell yeah!! i cant push myself to get into your blorbos but i am so happy to talk about the obscure stuff i know and go bonkers over the connections with you

He's not really here, he can't be angry if he isn't here. It's all okay. You're living your life now, this is all you. He doesn't have any control here

I’ve been feeling things lately

[inspectorlyfra]

sometimes listening to and working with your inner child involves sitting on the floor at the coffee table, using old recycled paper products to make a model of a world you wanna write, and then realizing the scraps can make the face of a little sloth friend. so you keep the scraps, because this sloth friend makes you happy

If I make an effort to improve my physical health, some of my mental health will improve. I just need to take it one step at a time and buckle in for a long ride. I can do this.

He doesn't deserve my anger or tears. If he is going to assault my mental state because I differ in opinions from him, then that's on him. He's a child. I'm better than that kind of thinking.

so for a minute there, i was rationing my prozac because i'd sent my prescription to the wrong pharmacy and i didn't have time to manually ensure it'd go to the right one and i wasn't sure when i'd be able to pick it up

and. goddamn. I can fucking Tell when I'm off my meds. yesterday, having been taking one dose every two days instead of one a day, for about a week, i was feeling low and self loathing and lacking in all my self worth

but i was able to pick up my prescription the day before, and so last night was actually the second day back on, and today?

a dozen times better. i can tell i'm still low and feeling weird, but oh my god is it MANAGEABLE. today i did a good job at work and was able to tell i was doing a good job and able to care more for my coworkers and teammates instead of just. feeling shitty and low and being sunk in that feeling alone

like. look, meds aint gon fix all your shit. but they help. they help so fuckin much. they take the unbearable weight and make it bearable. you still gotta work, but instead of 100 pounds, it's 10 or 20 pounds. So much more in the realm of capability. so much more possible to bear. some days, even with the meds, it'll feel like 100 pounds. but imagine those 100 pound days if you DIDNT have that internal friend to help you. that would be a 1000 pound day without.

So. if you cant produce your own mood regulators, store bought is better than nothing by a LOT.
