Hope you’re okay Ella. Whatever it is that is making you anxious i hope it passes🥺
I’ve struggled with anxiety quite a bit and I’ve realised that there’s certain things that trigger it off so once i realised what those were, i avoided them or tried to find ways around them. As for coping strategies, when i can sense i’m starting to get anxious i do anything to distract myself so I’m not thinking about being anxious. I do things that make me happy and this usually works. I try and think about all the things i have to look forward too aswell. For example these past months when i was anxious, i would just think about TFS and how excited i was for the next chapter and that was my something to look forward to. Also talking to someone helps because it reminds you that you’re not alone. Listening to other people’s perspective helped me too because i eventually realised that the things i was anxious about were trivial and i was just overthinking if that makes sense?
Sometimes it’s good to take some time out for yourself too because stress makes anxiety worse and it’s a vicious, never ending cycle. I know it’s hard sometimes to not stress because of life you know but stress and anxiety can have lots of physical implications aswell and we don’t want it to get to that stage. I’m here for you if you ever need anything♥️♥️
Thanks for this bby🫶🏼 I’ll put my answer under the read more tag bc no one needs to see me complaining haha
Gosh I’ve never really struggled with anxiety but I have financial concerns right now (have had them for months tho) bc student loans and it’s just .. I feel like I’ll never see the end of it. Mind you I’m Canadian so I owe like 9.4k ish so it isn’t that bad but I do owe a few grands to my parents too and it’s just the worst. I can’t sleep/eat bc of it lately and I’m like bruh why, I’ve started working and things are finally looking up like why is it still making me so anxious?? (I do have health concerns too, nothing too serious but it still sucks and has an effect on my mental health too)
About coping mechanisms, I’ve always used writing as one and it does help but lately I’ve been so busy and I have barely no time to write (though I write really fast so in may be 2h30?? in total I wrote 9.5k for the tfs sequel) so I feel bad bc I don’t write as much as I wish I could... As for speaking to people, I find that soooo incredibly hard bc I don’t want to burden anyone you know?? I feel like everyone has their own thing to deal with and they don’t need my stuff on top of that
And yeah I really wish I had time for myself but next day off/for myself that I can have is next tuesday.. like :’)
Thank you so much for your reply🫶🏼 you’re right, talking about it does help! It’s just v scary to me (am I tfs jungkook woah)
I hope you are doing great🫶🏼 you deserve to be happy and smiling and always calm and relaxed✨ anxiety begone cause I’ll fight it with my own two hands🫡

had a fucking hilarious dream that tumblr replaced the "block" function with the far funnier "glock" function, which did the exact same thing except whenever anyone blocked you a random bullet hole, like a png of a bullet hole, would appear on your blog. discourse blogs were unreadable bc you'd go to the page and the sheer amount of bullet hole pngs stacked over the blogs obscured everything. I woke myself up laughing

Loving reminder from your land history auntie:
North American golf courses have had 50-100 years of arsenic and mercury based fungicide and herbicides applied to their soils.
Do not eat anything that has been grown on a golf course or downstream from a golf course. I know it sounds cool and radical, but you are too valuable to poison yourself with heavy metals.
Protect each other, turn your local golf course into a pollinator garden, not a sex forest or community garden.

Edit: this poll is getting a decent amount of attention so please know the headless horseman is not original and was stolen from hello from the hallowoods, if you like the idea of a headless horseman tending to a graveyard go listen to the audio drama.

doylist explanation for why Gidel is only in Fellow's non-idle lesson animations: probably something about space constraints and making sure two sprites in one seat aren't covering anyone else when they're not in focus
watsonian explanation for why Gidel is only in Fellow's non-idle lesson animations: he snuck in and is hiding from the teachers, don't give him away 🤫
(I've reached my limit of unsuccessful attempts at pulling them before I need to save keys for Halloween, so I've been living vicariously through youtube videos...but the fact that Gidel just pops up from under the desk to wave his arms around happily is really testing my resolve. D: I'm gonna die when they finally get to do alchemy...)
