I understand how uncomfortable part of the fandom feels with the new trailer. It’s the same feeling I get when I see domestic life w kids posts.
#omi.rambles#but yk what I don’t do? I don’t go harassing other people#even when those posts aren’t tagged appropriately#yes appropriately#anything can trigger anyone#but also ppl that have triggers should recognize them and avoid#I just scroll pass and continue with my life#do breathing exercises if I read something that upsets me. control my own mind.#or saw something+#I don’t even bother sending asks with *could you tag X or Y?*#BECAUSE ITS NOT SOMETHING THATS REQUIRED OR OBLIGATORY#tw rant#that’s being emotionally responsible.#also part of having triggers is being aware of them and being prepared. bc a triggered person is somehow dangerous in itself.#like that’s basic therapy stuff (me thinks).#you know. you prepare. you learn to live like this.#I am actively living with triggers. I can’t ask the bus driver to hold a sign with their trigger warnings

guess whose laptop got fixed. (im finally able to draw with my drawing tablet YIPPEE I need to relearn this all over again)
#my artwork#artists on tumblr#art#my idiot :3#sorry for the amount of oc art gang this is what's keeping me motivated#anyways uh lore on this guy. his name is jonathan adam rosewood but I just call him apple leader for the sake of ease#he's basically some sort of leader of the apple colony. like a king but more complicated?#think how queen bees are made and born just to be queens (not in the reproductive sense. like the ruling sense)#he's a seemingly calm and charming person‚ but he's actually severely paranoid and easily angered.#probably has thrown someone out of the window like that one garfield panel. and probably has refused therapy on several occasions.#pretty good leader otherwise. the apple colony's doing fine‚ well as fine as a colony can be during a war.#oh and he'll die later in the story. that's all the important stuff you need to know#sketch

i think i officially set my sights on a therapist and i'll be contacting her very soon?? therapy was legitimately not on my 2024 bingo card (or in the cards for me at all) but here we are????
#this blog always had a focus on social science and detangling feelings and experiences. like it's basically been serving as my diary#bc this blog has always been my main outlet for it. i hate talking feelings to anyone irl. it's a bad habit but i hate it#so it was a game changer and helped me grow up sooo much. esp supplemented w other people's experiences.#being raised by a stoic engineer mother who's very much warm but also not very good at feelings at times has caused me to suppress SO much#compounded w being the eldest daughter. like that is a damning sentence in and of itself#tumblr just gave me an outlet for stuff like this. and every social media is essentially a highlight reel of ppl's best moments.#tumblr is the opposite. i've always loved that too whether it was in the form of humor or more earnest posts#could i work through my own issues by myself? yes probably#and my blog will always have that facet even if i get a therapist#but a therapist's input. just a professional's input. will expedite a lot of improvement for me i think#this has been a critical time period for me anyway bc i'm budgeting my whole schedule for once vs being handheld by uni deadlines#and it's just gonna keep getting more and more intense from here bc i'm truly pushing my comfort zone more than ever before#it just feels like the right call even tho i'm lowkey nervous ab it bc i HATE talking feelings in person.#this therapist will not fall for my trying to deflect by asking her about her life. which. usually works on my friends <3#we will see. a therapy arc is coming very soon basically#p

sbabl is such a fun reading experience. like all chapters are incredible but i keep thinking about chapter 3 where quirrel is just. shit talking hollow in front of ghost and its so funny like dude thats their sibling please stop
#i know hes doing it bc hes projecting his own self doubts on them but its so funny LSKSKLFJKL cmon man not in front of their sibling#also. i truly get the hype now i rlly wish i was more of a sentient being in 2019 so i couldve enjoyed it in its prime#like this fic legit changed my view of myself. lemm gave me free therapy. this gay hollow knight fanfic stuff is no joke#anyways back to the funny thoughts#the fountain scene is horribly sad but also sort of really funny because#quirrel is like. the kid in that one ishowspeed clip in which theres a kid screaming “I HAVE CANCER AND IM SUICIDAL”#but hes not screaming anything its just that every word he says is the equivalent of that. to me#and ghost just has to hear that and do nothing. and quirrel doesnt even know he's basically saying “its ok that ur sibling is-#trapped in dream superhell and forgotten bc thats just how things are" to that poor thang. its like very sad and funny at the same time#also. i was so shocked when i realized it wasnt really a ship fic. i think that scene where quirrel is like#“is that why u keep me around? to cook me? r u going to make ur own recipe with my body? will i be the honour of being ur own work? ”#<- is gay enough i think it was already worth the / instead of the &#i would try to channel these thoughts into a drawing but lately i have had no time to draw anything ughhhhhh#anyways idk i just had a rlly fun time reading it its hard to explain stuff w words but i dont joke when i say it changed me

#helping distantly support this person is so difficult sometimes#because she’ll send me stuff she finds online about people being totally ok with their friends having chronic issues that need to be#accommodated and their friends saying things about that being totally fine and easy and they still want to hang out#and that not making them a burden#basically asking me if it’s true cause she’s got self-worth issues and has a hard time believing it#BUT I AM THE WORST PERSON FOR HER TO ASK ABOUT IT#of COURSE needing accommodation is fine and of COURSE good friends won’t mind and of COURSE you’re not evil for aging for it#but I am not close enough to her or fond enough of her company to be the person who can genuinely say I WANT to just ‘hang out’ with her#and I don’t want to give her the false impression that I am!#I’m a long-distance support ‘friend’#when I’m around her I obviously don’t MIND giving her accommodation and comfort#because I know she needs it and I’m in a unique position to help#but I’m not actually I’m her presence more than a couple times a year and I’m glad#and she needs therapy and counseling and once she gets it and properly forms her own closer/in-person support system I don’t really want to#be involved anymore honestly!#but she is not mentally capable of understanding that right now! there is no way I could say it that she quotient take wrong!#BECAUSE SHE HAS CHRONIC ILLNESSES AND NEEDS FLIPPING CHRISTIAN COUNSELING TO DEAL WITH HER MESSED UP BRAIN STUFF!#it’s not an unbearable situation or anything I don’t let it be a stumbling block to me#but it is irritating and difficult and she is not in a place where she can understand that without beating herself over the head with that#information#and that is just#not what I call friendship#friendship is honesty and reciprocity and liking one another’s company#she’s just a care relationship#(which I know a lot of people would call a friendship but I don’t because I use the concept of friend in a much more limited way than most#people because I think solving out to everyone you are vaguely acquainted with robs it of meaning)#I have it in hand and I keep tabs on it and I don’t let it become a problem or a resentment thing#but just keep it in prayers if you will#That she get her darn act together and get the actual help she needs#and I continue to know hope to properly handle it without letting out torn into a problem

i will always think of myself as the one who brought russ fully into your life via argent and it makes me feel like i've done something good!
SOOOOOO GOOOOOOOOOOD omg, honestly this was the best thing that has happened to me within probably in the last decade, i am always forever grateful to you for this. i rank it up there with other important lifechanging events like when i stopped living with my dad.
whenever i think of the ways russ has really helped me and continues to help me, i also think about you. if you hadn't shown me argent, none of this would be a thing, at least not to this extent. i don't know how this year would have gone without him, but i'm positive it wouldn't have been anywhere near as good for me as it has been, thanks to you.
plus with this happening, it helps me remember that people sharing things they like with other people is a good thing, whether it's hit or miss, they like it or not, doesn't matter, because something like this can happen and change somebody's whole world around. all it could take is one link sent to the right person. and even if it doesn't do that, it's just fun to share things if they're interested in exploring it because i know it's fun for me when i'm sent stuff.
still trying to get through my problem of feeling like i can't talk about my interests much or at all in direct conversations, but thinking about all of this helps.
#i've been trying to get better over the years by myself in my own way because none of my family or anything understands#but russ has been like#a huge boost in that#because he seems to understand everything#there's only so much i can do by myself without anything or anyone to help me or to let me know i'm on a good path or whatever#or to make me think about things in different ways#or like if i could afford therapy or something then they'd be like a guide for this stuff#but i can't#do that#so i'm just trying to manage it on my own#i have come a long way slowly already but#russ feels like the most guidance i've had#EVER#the way he touches on subjects that are so personal to me is like#is he just. me???#is he me#he is me. but with more life experience and everything#AND A LIFE THAT I HAVE ALWAYS WANTED he is living my dream life i swear#i remember years ago saying i wanted a studio like that where i can just spend#my whole life in there#with all of the instruments#and that's BASICALLY WHAT HE DOES#he's just me#but he's the me that i always wanted to be but couldn't#it makes me so happy to see that somebody has that and is appreciating it so much#he appreciates every day#everything about him feels like he fills me with so much life and hope#and love obviously because i love him so muhc#okay anyway i'm starting to ramble again

hhh i wish i could draw for longer periods of time but the back pain and fatigue really get to me :c
#i wish i could take better care of myself#but i feel so miserable i can barely take care of basic needs never mind going on walks or actually preparing food that is good for me#and i can't afford therapy to take care of the mental stuff#i don't even think my meds are doing much anymore#i'm better than a few years ago but that doesn't mean i'm doing good#hhhh sorry i didn't want to vent that much :[#but this is my only outlet for stuff like this#vent#me complaining :[#misc stuff

told my psych i finally got on the autism assessment waitlist but since the average wait to get an appointment is 2 years i was considering private screening even though it costs quite a lot of money. he was just like "to be honest even if you get diagnosed we dont really have any support tools to offer you, its usually just behavioral therapy and social skills training" and therefore its not that useful to be diagnosed faster since i wont get any support either way. i am disappointed to be told straight up that even w a diagnosis i wont get shit to help me but at least he was honest so i can moderate my expectations and not waste hundreds of euros on private screening lol..
#97#also going thru the official public autism center ill actually be redirected to what little support tools do exist#while if i go privately i only get a diagnosis but no continued treatment#so its just better to wait#tbh this has essentially been the experience ive had w every diagnosis so far#like i keep being redirected to different orgs and whatnot and meeting professionals and shit#but eventually it all boils down to like..#'education about your illness' aka mostly stuff i already know#or behavioral therapy which i tried for a few months but for how much it costs (a lot) i didnt learn shit so i quit#i expected behavioral therapy to be very like.. task-oriented w concrete goals and exercises#and instead it was mostly stuff about recognizing my negative emotions/thoughts and trying to think positively instead?#which like. does not help me w the shit that matters more to me aka actually being able to materially take care of myself to a basic degree#i rly dont get what makes these mundane personal posts worth rbing lol

Do you guys ever feel slightly unwell and you overthink about it to such an extremely unhealthy point that the thing you were feeling got 1000x worse and won't leave you the fuck alone precisely because you kept overthinking about it, jumping to the absolutely worst conclusions and now you feel like absolute and utter shit?
#txt#guys i've been feeling like this#i've been trying to relax but my ass just can't#and i'm basically fucking myself up like nobody's business#and i didn't want to call my mom this time who i always ask help for when this type of stuff happens to me#and holy fucking shit does it show that i have ZERO idea on how to handle these type of things#holy shit 💀💀💀#it's precisely because i tend to overthink to incredibly unhealthy levels#and i damage my health and i start thinking about worse outcomes again and THE CYCLE NEVER FUCKING ENDS#i mean it hasn't 100% left but i'm feeling a bit better#man i really need whole courses on how to handle this type of stuff better#i try to but my ass won't fucking let me#jesus christ i need more therapy in my life#and the emotional therapy not the academic one i'm going to#anyway yeah venting really does help but only by 25%#the key is to STOP FUCKING THINKING AND I'M ALREADY AN OVERTHINKER ON THE REGULAR#SO HOW IN THE HELL IS THIS SHIT GONNA GO AWAY IF I EVEN FEEL A BIT FUCKED UP???#i'm not even joking when i say i need a second therapist. that part is not a joke at all trust me

sorry if this is oversharing but here's my two cents ! i dated someone for 3 years who never put in the effort, never was the first to call, left me on read, never texted me first etc. It makes you MISERABLE. and i always had this idea of if i just said the right words they would change. if I told them enough times that i was unhappy and wanted more effort from them, they would start treating me right. they would always say they would do better, and then did the same.
there's no magic word combination. some people are just built like that forever, no matter how much u plead. it really makes u feel worthless after a while. unfortunately she sounds just the same. after we broke up i realised i only tolerated all that shit because i found them SO SO SO physically attractive. and it made me feel so good about myself...like look at me i can pull this absolute hottie...and i realised i was in love with that feeling more than i was in love w them or their personality.
i hope this is even a little bit helpful ! best wishes !!
hi !!! that sounds really horrible i'm sorry you went through that! i'm so glad you're out of that relationship now though, i hope ur doing ok now !! (long answer so i'll put it under cut)
yh i def understand ! whenever i was in a relationship w smn who was inconsistent in replying etc etc even for a temporary period i felt absolutely miserable i can't imagine what it's like to go through that for 3 whole years...the situation w my crush however i think is a bit different bc we've gone on very few dates (3) and we're not even in a relationship yet, and also maybe in the past i would plead or look for the right combination of words, but fortunately i'm at a stage in my life where i'm ok w just. accepting it def won't work out and i'm moving on
u are right though i think a big aspect of why i'm entertaining this even to such an unserious capacity rn is bc of how she looks 😭 but ...idk how to say this without sounding rly arrogant but she also pulled...me? like i think i only tend to date ppl i find very hot and also i don't feel too bad abt losing her despite her appearance bc like...yh i feel lucky i pulled her but also it was the other way around too yk. she's the one who asked me out at the start 🤷♀️ (i say this but catch me weeping over lost potential in a few weeks) but also ur right as it stands rn its like . the ratio of how attracted i am to her looks:personality is wayyy off and if it doesn't change, i just won't see myself in a relationship w her
#ty for the advice ! i came to this realisation that like. she may just be...rly hot and i may not like her personality so much a few days#ago (i posted abt it) but i kinda forgot so ty for reminding me :) theres def lots of stuff i Do like abt her personality#(ambitious clever sharp kind appreciates poetry and culture and goes to therapy and is chivalrous etc etc)#but theres def a lot to think abt . for now im just having fun basically#also i tell her off quite easily? like i think im good at being blunt w her#only time will tell if shell listen to what i say tho. if she doesnt then ur right and i will let her go#asks#anon#ty anon !! ♡♡♡#crushposting

cant stopthinking about betty
#^ another post thats rlly funny with my current pfp. canon#anyways its genuinely terminal#i cant remember if ive already said this but i think its cause even tho i know for a fact i mustve watched episodes with her in it#because my brother says we did when we watched it as kids. i had ZERO memory of ever witnessing anything to do with her#other than ofc like. holly jolly secrets LOL but that doesnt count#i only knew of that stuff secondhand during the period where i was kind of just occasionally hearing about the show as it aired when i#wasnt watching it. so basically while i already kind of knew what happened. this is me experiencing her as a character and her plotline#essentially for the first time. and realizing ohmy god shes the best character ever. holy fawk.......................#i only just started my at rewatch and i just started s2#but before that i had skimmed thru a guy's reactions to the full series which led to me watching her episodes for the first time. and MAN.#man. i love her somsuchh oh my god. BETTYYYYYTHAHRAHGHRHGRHRGHRGH#when the character is loving to the point of unhealthy obsession and sacrificing their entire life for the other person#that shit is like cocaine to me#rlly rlly hoping that f&c addresses how crazy and fucked her constantly sacrificing everything for simon is#literally GO TO THERAPY GIRL. GO TO CHAOS GOD THERAPY.#but then again. if she went to therapy she wouldnt be a cool wizard. so maybe its not worth it#also i love a good ''normal average human character slowly becoming less and less human until they are unrecognizable''#serena.txt

wait did i post abt my special spine here yet. well i uhhhhhh have a curve near my hips that causes them to be lopsided (left is lower), then it curves back and then at the bottom of my ribs curves again so the left side of my ribcage is also lower (and the right side is pushed forward a bit which explains why i get tendons caught on that side so often...), then it curves back, then curves AGAIN in my neck ^_^
#went to a chiro yesterday#generally very distrustful of the practice as a whole#but he came highly reccomended by several of my doctors AND my mom. AND he has like. a medical liscense and a degree. like#he can do general practice and physical therapy and electro therapy (for. muscles. i mean.) and apparently he is one of few with an#actual uhhh liscense ig? for some kind of thing where they put you on the rack basically which is really funny#regardless. he did push some stuff around and ?? my rib cage isn't like. visibly noticeably twisted now???#wild.#i went bc i was told he will b upfront and if he doesn't think what he can do is what you need#he like. won't just try anyway#and i wasn't expecting much but. its a pretty noticeable difference#esp just. in that i can tell i'm not getting every nerve pinned in every joint every time i move#i mean i still have a lot more pain than is ideal#but. less like. electric shocks and numbness. so far.#only the day after lol and he said its bad enough it'll take a few goes and then after that maintentence appts#this is not a supportive review of chiropracty btw make your own informed decisions abt your lives#this is a supportive review of THIS DOCTOR ONLY. and also only for me and my problems.#which are apparently! that i have a fucking silly straw for a spine!#anyway i was there for 2 fuckin hours#i already had at least 3 or 4 xrays and an mri of various parts and angles of my spine#and he actual voiced MY typical concern abt xrays -#the hospital here that is the main xray provider like. makes you lay down and manipulates you#into “correct” positions. which obviously is going to HIDE SOME OF THE ISSUES#so he personally did the xrays and then developed them and then pulled them up on a tv to show me#so i've SEEN it. i'm not even saying like oh thats what he said my spine looked like no i SAW that bitch#also he said not to worry abt my face jewelry bc it won't cover anything he needs to see#so i also saw all of that in there xD very fun

my mom told me i almost got diagnosed with autism as a kid (she says i wasn't officially diagnosed because the diagnosis wouldn't have been useful so i guess my symptoms were so on the fence that they didn't push for it) which. like i'm 100% sure i have autism but holy mackerel. she couldn't have told me this as a kid???? it's a good thing i'm both logical and oblivious so i didn't spend too much time thinking "something is wrong with me. what the fuck is wrong with me" but like. what the fuck?
#god i fucking hate tagging shit on this fuckass app#fuck me. i love having to rewrite sentences because i accidentally typed a parentheses and this shitfuck app went “ooooooh done with tag???#done with tag?????????#i need to buy a fucking rubber puck to bite on because i've been doing it to my arm so often that there's been a yellow bruise for like the#last two weeks straight#anyways depression (i still haven't gone to therapy but come on. 5 years on and off with long and harsh episodes of thinking about how my#life is over and how my future is fucked and maybe none of this is worth it isn't exactly normsl)#autism and possibly anxiety (not actually sure if i inherited that from my mother or if the anxiety i feel is because of the other things)#have been kicking my ass this year so far#it was bad the last few years. it was pretty goddamn bad last semester. and now it's mmmmm. a lot worse! fuck.#joy and whimsy gets me far but i really need to deal with this before anything worse happens again. was having a shitfuck time for#so long that i forgot about my problems with anxiety which is really putting a wrench in the whole “go do very new and very scary thing by#yourself“ plan#god. hard to catch a break between freaking out over grades or getting a job or not being able to drive as a ~20yo or#my rights or how lonely i am or my family who doesn't care about my rights or whatever the fuck else#pensive emoji. if i didn't have my three mates from high school who knows how much shittier i'd feel#or my love for insects. literally only have that shit from being somewhere in the right place at the right time#that shit has pulled me out of a funk more times than i can count (worked better when i was younger and had less stress but i digress)#also [my species]. love it! having fun! but i was so much faster with admin work when it started because i used it as a distraction from#my problems. but now my problems are kicking my ass and i just don't have the juice to do shit more often than every couple weeks (#(also i forget)#and i feel kinda bad about it man. i try to have little events going and raffles and stuff but i feel like there's still the expectation#that things will be that fast again when that's pretty unlikely#but who knows with that. gonna have to wait until the summer to figure out my routine with that#ummmmmm. anyways. rant over. if you read this far i love you. and go drink some water#edit: just realized this was the first thing that pops up when you search my species. fuck. skull emoji. oops. rant jumpscare#smiles. um. doing better now that the college semester is pretty much over for anyone wondering. i also got some people to help#with my species so that's also cool.#i made a currency/inventory bot back in january but i'm just now getting around to finishing the basic parts and starting the extras

add another tally to ‘genetic potential for having adhd’ boys. first tick being the fact that my grandfather has it. Second one being that. well I don’t know what my dad has going on but it’s something. Third one being that my sister’s therapist just told her she may have adhd
#at this point I feel like all signs point to audhd#just. the everything about me and the way I am#and then the fact that my family members seem to have smth going on whether they realize it or not#I should probably go see a therapist again#crazy that my sister is getting consistent therapy before me (to be fair she did have some major shit happen#but I also had some major shit happen. I wanted to off myself. I just failed to keep up with seeing my therapist)#problem is I so fear just being one of those ‘tiktok told me I had autism’ people#I fear that I have incorrectly self diagnosed and that there’s actually nothing wrong with me#and I’m just a lazy ass with middling social skills#but then going to get diagnosed is such a big thing. It’s also scary plus it requires me to like. Take initiative#but god. Idk.#Watching the jaidenanimations video where she talks about her audhd diagnosis really hit#like the way she describes stuff hits way to close to home#so it feels like another tick on ‘it’s probably adhd or autism or both’#and I have this all the time. Basically everyone I know has at least one of those and I feel like I really relate to them#in a lot of relevant ways#but then I try to bring up the possibility to my parents and they just shut it down like ‘lol no you don’t’#idk. hellworld. I think I am rawdogging mental illness but who knows. Life goes on either way
