[system-hottakes]

possible hot take -

people with did/osdd CAN have good relationships with their parents/family/caretakers, that doesn’t mean all of them will have good relationships with everyone but for us at least a lot of our trauma comes from doctors/medical stuff and hallucinations/sleep paralysis, sure our parents could have done better in some areas but so could we (but we still love them & appreciate everything they’ve done for us <3)

nod nod! We have a present good relationship with our parents and we really don't like the idea that systems have to hate their family or their caretakers. Obviously not all systems will have good relationships with them but not all systems with have bad relationships with them too!

tao's story about his dad meant so much to me.

my dad died two years ago, and, other than the overwhelming sadness that comes with that, ever since i've always felt like my life couldn't be 'normal'.

i've never felt seen like that before. tao has a 'normal' life and he's happy.

it's just one small part of what makes heartstopper so special, but it's helped to show me that it CAN be okay.

i love alice oseman's work so much.

For the upcoming Scuro Saturday, I'm going to go into depth about one of my favorite OC's, Lorenzo Samuele Scuro. He's a three-year-old Pi-Mu in training and resides with the breeding pair full-time as an advisor and ambassador of the Scuro Dynasty. Lorenzo, or "Enzo", has cerebellar hypoplasia that affects his coordination to a degree, a fact with which his father Niccolò has yet to come to terms. While they argue frequently, Lorenzo can usually pacify his father's mercurial temperament. When he isn't operating in an official capacity, he enjoys the study of botany. Enzo is currently mated to Fable, who is owned by my friend @shepblogs.

I bought this little plush thing of Levi, and it arrived today. It has a squeak inside when squished, and my mum has already had enough of it. (I am extremely happy).

I hope my mother kills herself after I finally get away from her.

everyone always talks about mommy issues. nobody is talking about your mother having severe mommy issues and projecting her relationship to her mother onto your relationship with her

I just did laundry like it was nothing and I remembered suddenly how difficult it was just to think about doing laundry not five months ago. I came home from work and cried because I had laundry to do and my room was a mess and my parents hated me and nothing was going well. I was so scared and sad and instead of doing laundry I fell asleep and I slept restlessly throughout the day. I did this same sort of routine almost every day. Depression was pervasive.

This wasn't my fault. This wasn't some situation where I "let myself spiral" or I didn't frame my consciousness correctly or whatever other bullshit thing the internet/ your stupid aunt/ your abuser might tell you. I didn't get out of my depressive state by pulling myself up by my bootstraps. I got out of my depressive state by getting out of an abusive situation. I got out of it because of the love and support that those around me showed. I got out of it because I am incredibly incredibly lucky enough to have a found family who was willing to let me into their home and accept me as their surrogate son.

I'm not sure if I have a point to make here other than that depression is very real. Laundry was crushing back then and it's nothing now. If you're depressed, I'm sorry. I'm sorry if people aren't taking you seriously. I'm sorry if you're in a situation that you can't get out of. I know that not all of us are fortunate and I know how horrible it is. Don't beat yourself up for not being able to sunshine and rainbows your way out of it.

And if you know a depressed person: listen to them and respond thoughtfully. Try to do something to help them. Don't give the same run of the mill "it will get better" with no follow through. Empty words are at best neutral and at worst cause more damage.

I am healing and I could only do so because of insane luck. I'm very happy right now and I'm also feeling hopeful. Hope can come back... how wonderful is that? And what I'm hoping for is that someday I will be able to help more people heal. I'm hoping I will grow up and find a way to give this gift of healing to someone else.

IS MY DAD PLAYING FREAKS (SURF CURSE)??? HELP??? WHAT???

Here's another of my favorite OC's to date, Machiavelli "Machi" Myoga. He's a young mercenary-assassin who is not affiliated with any known pack.

After the death of his mother, a young Machi was taken in by a group of cutthroat bandits led by his estranged father, Oxbow 1M. His upbringing was perilous, turning the confused, gullible young creature into a rugged survivalist. The male is stubborn and reluctant to involve himself with other wolves' problems- unless there is adequate payment for his services.

Despite his callous nature, Machi is devoted to a small blue teddy bear he discovered as a pup, aptly named "Blue-Bear". He is currently mated to Cheyenne (owned by myself) and has plans to move to Lost River.
