[ cw: trauma / mind control / separation anxiety / autophobia / ]

Something that kills me is that there’s no way in hell that Raph’s debilitating separation anxiety isn’t infinitely worse after the movie. The trauma of being Krangified like that, all alone, would probably regress him so hard.

Not to mention his worries of getting “weird” would likely get mixed up with his experience while Krangified - aka, he loses full awareness, and when he’s brought “back” it’s to the understanding that he attacked his own family (of course not to his own fault at all, but how much of that does he believe?)

The fear of being alone would take on another layer and become a fear of himself.

Avoiding caffeine on an empty stomach is also ideal for hormone balance, for those with a compromised gut, and for those with anxiety.

I know this is The Ibuprofen Website and everyone jokes about it, but you guys think it’s safe to take it every day for the last two weeks (genuine question by the way)?

Despite how awful this year has been in general for me, I was granted a little Christmas miracle beyond what I could have ever asked for.

I'm finally out as Trans to my entire immediate family, and none of them hate me for it!

I can't say they're all supportive, but at least they're not hostile. Most of them seem to be hoping/thinking that this means nothing more than me maybe wearing a skirt now and then, but not having to pretend and hide is a good start!

so like. out of curiosity. if i went "what the heck why not" and got a chapstick with *squints at product info* 75 mg of full-spectrum cbd in it. i am pretty sure i am not at risk of living out the "forever brownie mishap" meme given that it's mainly cbd and not massive amounts of thc in it, and also i do not eat lip balm directly, but i'm curious what kinds of effects it will have if i use it. is it like. numbing? does it take a significant slathering of chapstick to have any real effect on one's mental state?

idk the tism wants to know what i'm going into here and i keep seeing people tout cbd as a miracle oil and i've already experienced how wrong that narrative is when applied to essential oils of the non-hemp kind
