☆ ・Space station boundaries ! ˖ ˒

Combined︰We are engaged and not seeking romantic or platonic littles/cgs! Dms open for anyone +16 or -26. If interested, interact with our posts, as random messages can be uncomfortable. If you would like to be moots/friends, please at least interact with our posts first

☆ ・Rover Regression info ! ˖ ˒

🦊 Little Dipper︰I am a flip-leaning regressor, regressing from 0-4. I am a sleepy but bubbly regressor, mostly using items like pacifiers. Despite my trauma, I can regress for small periods of time while assisted, but its a great start and hopefully when FD and I live together it'll boost my regression more!

🦌 Big Dipper︰I am Finns CG, and I love my babi bear! I do everything I can to make sure they feel safe and comfy here when regressing, as well as when they aren't

Sitter views︰We do not see sitters as something either of us would want to be apart of unless it was us sitting for/being sat by someone we know very well. My current sitter is @sleeplessjunkie Who generally just regresses with me when bubby is gone while we play games !!!! We will either talk a lot or not at all, and thats ok bc talk is hard! (we're both autistic)

ok the stress actually finally got to me today when i have SIX fucking days left until # THAT happens! im so anxious rn bc theres so much to do and its so overwhelming

[thebibliosphere]

Speaking of therapy, I say, as though we're old friends, and you're not a stranger trapped in this metaphorical elevator with me and you can hear the suspension wires starting to fray.

I've been doing a lot of work recently that's focused on imposter syndrome and the feeling that no matter how well or how much I do, I'm not good enough. That I'm somehow tricking everyone into thinking my work is actually good.

Some days it's a minor niggle in my head that I can gentle and soothe with logic and affirmations. Or smother, depending on the mood. Other times it's loud and all-consuming and the mental anguish it causes me is so real I can feel it twitching in my muscles. This desperate fight-or-flight instinct with nowhere to go and nothing to fight but myself.

Anyway, because I'm several types of Mentally Unwell™, I was switching between workshop sheets ahead of next week. Filling in different forms. (Trying to get a good grade in therapy) And I got my "recognize your harmful ADHD coping mechanisms" worksheet mixed in with the "you're not actually lying to people, you just feel like you are because your brain is full of weasels" worksheet, and seeing them side by side made something go topsy turvy in my head, and I just had to sit and breathe for a couple of minutes until the urge to scream passed. Because it clicked, it all suddenly clicked.

The reason the imposter syndrome workshops and therapy sessions aren't sticking was because I do routinely trick people into thinking I'm someone I'm not.

Because I'm masking my ADHD for their convenience.

I've always known there was something wrong with me. My neurotypical peers made it abundantly clear I didn't fit in or was failing in some way I couldn't see nor remedy, no matter how hard I tried.

So I compressed myself into a workaholic box of hyper-competence in the hopes they'd stop noticing the flaws and exploit like me instead. And then subsequently lived with the daily fear that if they looked too close, they'd realize I'm a monumental fuck up with enough personal baggage to block the Suez Canal.

If you ever need someone to burn themselves to ashes for your comfort and convenience, I'm your gal.

Or I used to. Until I had a bit of a breakdown, and the rubber band holding my brain together snapped and pinged off into the stratosphere, never to be seen again.

Unfortunately, the trauma of living like that didn't also fuck off and instead left a gaping maw where my personality ought to be, so now I get to deal with that aftermath.

And it's that aftermath that's affecting the imposter syndrome shit. Because yes, I am hyper-competent and good at what I do-- but it doesn't feel real because that is how I mask.

And the truly frustrating thing is I am good at what I do. I am not pretending. I worked hard to be good at this. It just feels like I'm dicking around because 90% of my personality turns out to be trauma masquerading as humor in a trenchcoat, and having people genuinely like something weird I'm doing is so foreign my brain has decided it's just another form of masking.

I'm pretending to be a good author so people will think I'm a good author, and my brain thinks we are in Danger of being found out. We are in Danger, and writing is Dangerous because then people will know I'm Weird and not whatever palatable version I've presented myself as for their NT sensibilities.

Like the neurotic vampire with a raging praise kink wasn't an obvious giveaway.

Anyway. I got nothing else. Thanks for listening.

I'm going to go be very normal in another room and not stare into the abyss of my own soul for a bit.

[thejournallo]

Welcome to the Journalist!

I decided to open this blog because I love to manifest. It makes me feel grateful for what I have and for what I could have in the future. I've been exploring various methods to shift, and I thought, why not share them with others? (Plus, I might sprinkle in a little witchcraft here and there that helps with manifestation.)

With so many methods out there today, I realized it would be helpful to have a blog that explains them in a clear and concise way—without the overstimulation of a 6-second video.

When I searched for resources, I found that many blogs just didn’t meet my needs for several reasons:

They only covered the most popular methods.

Some explanations weren’t detailed enough for my ADHD brain.

And honestly, some hadn’t been updated since 1618.

That's why I'm here—to be the resource I couldn’t find.

Masterlist Methods

⋆｡‧˚ʚ how to start an age regression / inner child healing journal ɞ˚‧｡

🌷 content warning: very brief, un-descriptive mentions of having trauma 🌷

1. find a notebook you'd like to use ! this can look different for everyone. I picked a journal at the craft store with a pretty design on the front, but you could also use a simple composition book, a notepad or you could even keep a digital journal ! I personally prefer to have two diaries, one is for everyday boring "big-kid" stuff, and the other one is my agere journal ! ૮꒰˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶꒱ა if you'd like, you can combine them, but i personaly find keeping my trauma-processing stuff off to the side is helpful to me. 💛

2. brainstorm what things you'd like to accomplish with your therapy journal ( if any ! ) and what you'd like to write in it. you could set light hearted goals to reconnect with your childhood, process scary things that happened / everyday stressors , or to just keep it for fun ! remember that you don't need to know everything right away, though ! 🧸

for me, my goals are to understand trauma and learn how to grow from it, but I also like to draw pictures, write about the tinier parts of my day, do some affirmations , and follow simple prompts I find online. I will also use it as a tool to track triggers , trauma responses and anxieties to help myself better understand why I felt that way and know how to ground myself better during those scary moments . I also use it to write down thoughts or things I'd like to bring up with my therapist. ( my parents finally got me set up to see a therapist !! yay ! I am a minor so she is a pediatric therapist so she's extra gentle which is so nice hehe )

3. If you'd like, you can decorate the inside pages and the cover with all sorts of fun craft materials ! I like to use stickers and wash tape, but if you don't have those, you can print some pictures out and glue or tape them in ! If you don't have access to a printer, you could use one for free at a local library or at your school. you can also use markers, crayons, colored pencils, or whatever else you'd like to decorate the inside with fun drawings or to make some little worksheets for yourself to paste inside . maybe if you have someone to look after you or a little friend, you can ask them to come up with some for you to do ! 🩷 I like to make notes for my best little friend, wimsy, through dms hehe ! ૮꒰ྀི∩´ ᵕ ` ꒱ྀིა

4. you could make lists of things, too ! I like to list my favorite songs, all of my toys names, what I wanna do when it gets warmer outside, anything !

5. I find it helpful to make charts for stuff that can be challenging when having an icky day or feeling mentally unwell, like brushing my teeth or making sure that my pet chores are all taken care of. ( don't worry !! if I forget to give my kitty treats she will ask my mom hehe ! /lh ) I like to use a reward system, like if I brush my teeth two times every day for a whole week, I can have two breaks during homeschool. 🖍️

okie dokie ! that's all I have for now. hope I gave you some good ideas and tips ! this is all very new to me but I hope this was at least a little informative or helpful hehe . 💕🐰

May I request "is no an emotion?" with Toge Inumaki? 😊

𝖎𝖘 𝖓𝖔 𝖆𝖓 𝖊𝖒𝖔𝖙𝖎𝖔𝖓? 𝖇𝖊𝖈𝖆𝖚𝖘𝖊 𝖎 𝖋𝖊𝖊𝖑 𝖎𝖙 (inumaki toge)

pairing: inumaki toge x gn!reader

content: fluff, soft soft soft, they’re exhausted cuz they’re students, toge’s silly words, lap pillow

a/n: this is such a cute prompt for toge frfr 🙏🙏 i hope you enjoy this one anon <3 i used that twt speech guide for toge’s words but i think his wiki also has a short guide. anyways salmon means affirmation/agree/positive feelings, and bonito flakes means no/deny/negative feelings. the difference becomes clear to reader through tone and how he says it. <3

You sighed. The afternoon had been tiring. Class had been especially boring today and training had been beyond draining.  

You were sitting cross-legged on your bed, surrounded by stacks of notes you were trying to organize. Toge was slumped forward in his seat at your desk, head using his folded arms as a pillow. He looked just as exhausted as you felt.

You watched him for a second before using one of your worksheets, not an important one you hoped, to crush into a small paper ball and aim it at the back of his head.

He grunted at the small impact, lifting his head a little to glance back over his shoulder and at you.

You leaned back on your head as you took in his tired features. 

“How are you feeling?” you asked, tilting your head.

“Bonito Flakes.”

You blinked. 

“No?” You repeated, surprised, making sure you had understood him right.

He nodded and repeated, “Bonito flakes.”

You chuckled in confusion, amused by his dry answer. “You feel no?”

Toge‘s eyes crinkled as he smiled. His collar was partially zipped down, revealing the corner of his lips as they curled upwards. It also gave you a glimpse of the seals next to his mouth.

He sat up a little and leaned back in his chair, arm reaching backwards and towards you as he motioned for you to come to him, grabbing a ballpoint pen.

You rolled your eyes, huffing as you crawl towards the ends of your bed where Toge rolled your chair to. You gave him your arm, waiting patiently as he removed the cap of the pen and started writing on the back of your hand.

As he finished and you pulled your hand back to read what he wrote an amused snort slips past your lips. 

On your skin, he wrote in his scrawly handwriting: Is no an emotion? Because I feel it.

“You’re a dork,” you told him with a smile on your face, “But I feel pretty ‘no’, too.” 

“Salmon.” He gave you a thumbs up, before getting ready to roll his chair back to its previous position at the desk.

You grabbed his wrist before he could and gave it a tug.

“The bed’s more comfortable, come here.” You pat the mattress, moving some of your notes out of the way as you scoot back, pulling him with you.

Toge didn’t protest but followed you willingly, waiting until you had sat down again and crossed your legs before dropping down and lying down, using your lap as a pillow.

He sighed happily, “Salmon.”

You ran your fingers through his hair and smiled down at him as he settled down, relaxing.

“You feel less ‘no’ now?” You poked his cheek.

“Salmon.”

Crow Heyden-Kaye was in Grade 8 when a worksheet handed out during class asked students to consider how they would describe their gender. It was the first time it occurred to Crow that "girl" didn't actually fit with how he felt. Over the next few years, he began using the pronouns they and them. In Grade 10, he came out as trans. His pronouns are "he" and "they."  "Immediately, it was like something clicked," said Heyden-Kaye, who is now 18 and lives with his parents and sibling in Ponoka, a central Alberta town of about 7,300 people. At 16, he asked his mom to make an appointment with their longtime family doctor so he could get a referral to a gender clinic. He wanted to start exploring the possibility of hormone replacement therapy. But during the telephone appointment, the family doctor began asking questions Heyden-Kaye felt were inappropriate.  "What if I wanted to get pregnant someday? What if I had a husband someday? Not related at all," he said. "I think he asked me 'What if you want to keep your boobs?' "  A week later, a staff member from the doctor's office called back and said the physician was also recommending that Heyden-Kaye read a book that discouraged transitioning.  "A referral was all that we wanted and then it would be out of his hands. He refused to do that for us."

ACCEPTS DBT Worksheet

*Corresponding DBT Skill*

This worksheet is a way for you to plan ahead and show up for yourself when you're in distress.

Print this out, fill it in and have it as a tangible list of things to take your focus off the emotional storm and avoid harmful coping mechanisms. 

List activities that will take your focus in the moment (for example draw, play a video game, put together a small puzzle)

List things you can do with someone who calms you (for example help with washing dishes, fold laundry, cook a meal)

List 2 times before when you were struggling emotionally and got through it (to remind yourself that you have before and can survive again)

List things you can do to activate opposite emotions (for example watch some funny videos to counteract sadness with laughter)

List numbers you can call for help (For example a crisis hotline, therapist, or loved one)

Bonus Project: Self-Soothing Tool Box 

Fill a small box with anything that you can grab in a moment of stress to occupy your 5 senses.

This can include things like fidget toys, stress balls, mini plushies, small puzzles (25 pieces or so), a laundry sheet or perfume that calms you, a print out of the lyrics to one of your favorite songs, photos of loved ones, a Box Breathing guide, post-it notes with helpful affirmations, and even sour candies or mints.

The goal here is to have a go-to collection of self-soothing assistants so you're not searching and struggling in the midst of your distress.

Worksheet

So, something that I really want to do is make an IN DEPTH worksheet for you all to help you with your manifestation.

This won't be a typical one page worksheet where you just write what you want and your affirmations.

This worksheet would help you go in depth into your subconscious mind and rewrite your story and your self concept. It would help you not only figure out what you want but also why you want it.

Let me know what you all think!

[essentialvirgo]

⊹˚. ♡.𖥔 ݁ ˖ 369 Manifestation Method ⊹˚. ♡.𖥔 ݁ ˖

What is the 369 method?

The method involves setting an intention, typically a desire or goal, and then repeating specific affirmations or visualizations related to that intention.

How to use it

Choose an intention or affirmation. This could be something like “I am successful at everything I do.” “I am in a loving relationship with my SP” etc

Write this down 3 times in the morning, 6 times in the afternoon, and 9 times at night

The repetition helps your affirmation infiltrate into your subconscious mind, where it will eventually show up in your 3d reality

Get your free 369 worksheet here!

THEORETICAL APPROACHES AND TREATMENT MODELS (listed alphabetically)

Practitioners who are unfamiliar with dissociative disorders or to working with DID may prefer to start with texts that are based on their core models or familiar ways of working. Survivors can also expect to come across and be offered a variety of theoretical approaches, summarised below, although none have the monopoly on healing. It is more important that professional help is trauma-informed and based on a collaborative and companionable approach to finding what is best for each individual’s journey.

Attachment-based Psychotherapy – focuses on relationships and bonds between people. It emphasises the developing child’s need to form a healthy emotional bond with at least one primary caregiver for positive social and emotional development.

Do you (or your followers) know of any tips or resources for harm reduction for alcohol use? Everything I found tends to focus on drug use, and finding very little geared towards alcohol addiction. Thank you if so!

hey anon!

Thanks for this question. I think this definitely is something that can be a little harder to find specific information on, but I feel like the core harm reduction principles definitely can apply to alcohol use as well. I think there are some relevant distinctions when considering this in practice (alcohol is legal and there is a safe supply, bloodborne infections aren't a directly related risk in the same way as with injection drug use, different relationship with stigma and criminalization), but the underlying values feel the same.

When I'm having conversations with people about harm reduction, I think something that can be really helpful is just really doing some self inquiry and asking ourselves a lot of open ended questions. This might look like asking: What do I wish my drinking looked like? What parts of drinking currently feel good to me? What parts of drinking don't feel as good? What needs is alcohol currently meeting for me? How ready do I feel to make a change? What are some reasons I might want to make a change? Are there times in the past that I've successfully made a change, and what did that look like? What support might I need in my life to make a change?

Thinking through these things might help narrow down what positive change might feel most accessible for you right now. The core principles of harm reduction-understanding that there are riskier and safer ways to use any substance, and embracing any positive change, could be helpful things to keep in mind.

In terms of actual practical strategies, there are a lot of options. one option could be trying to make goals about reducing the frequency of alcohol use. Definitely want to put a warning that depending on your current pattern of use, alcohol is one of the few drugs where the withdrawal can actually be deadly. If your body is currently dependent on alcohol, any type of tapering needs to be done super carefully and if possible, might be good to check in with a clinic or doctor for advice. This worksheet also offers information on what safe tapering of alcohol at home might look like.

You could also make some goals about changing the amount you drink at one time. Even if you're drinking the same amount of times per day/week, reducing the overall amount in one sitting could be an awesome positive change.

There are a lot of other strategies you could make goals about in terms of safer alcohol use. These things could be trying to drink more water and eat more when you are drinking, avoiding nonbeverage alcohol, avoiding mixing other drugs and alcohol, working on spacing your drinks throughout your period of drinking, working on incorporating drinking breaks, whether that's throughout your day or throughout your week. You could also make goals about your environment when you drink, whether that's considering what physical spaces are safest to drink in, what people are safe to be around while you drink, things like making goals about only drinking when your emotional state feels more stable, practicing other coping skills and emotional self care, anything!

I'd also really recommend reaching out to local harm reduction orgs if that's an option. Even if they don't have anything listed about alcohol on the website, there are probably people there who would be equipped to help provide support and connect you to resources.

This is definitely a just a tiny snapshot of some harm reduction considerations around alcohol, and definitely want to affirm that you will know best what works for you, what your needs are, and have your own relevant perspective about what you think harm reduction and alcohol use looks like. I don't really have any more direct resources on hand besides what I linked above, but followers, please feel free to add tips or link to other resources! Overall just want to validate that abstinence is not the only or best method for making changes in your relationship with alcohol, and everyone deserves the autonomy to make the decisions that feels right for them and their life.
