after almost three years clean and despite doing everything possible to avoid it, we have a case of covid in the house.

i’ve had friends assure me that they’re taking precautions, only to find out that they regularly go to karaoke and once alarmingly asked me if i’d be uncomfortable if they didn’t wear a mask into a shopping center.

i’ve lost friends for telling them it’s irresponsible to host activities without regard to how covid-hot the area is. they’re bored and anxious and the gov’t and media isn’t indicating any risk about it. they’re tired of being cooped up.

what if i told you that these levels of “precautions” are forcing others to stay in longer. what if i told you that this is how a lot of disabled people live all the time. what if i told you we don’t like it either. did you ever think about that. no. you only think about yourselves.

#can't believe i'm still having to explain #that even if you're healthy it can kill you #that a huge percentage of cases - even mild ones - result in long covid #which there is no cure for #why do i have to beg you to consider others' lives #every positive case carries the weight of never knowing how many people it was passed to and how many of those people are dead #good fucking job everyone really awesome stuff #i hate you all #m-m-m-my corona

Joe Biden infected with corona again, was cured of Kovid-19 3 days ago, will remain in quarantine

Washington, US President Joe Biden was found to be infected with Kovid-19 again on Saturday. His strict isolation ended just three days ago after he was free of coronavirus infection. Re-emergence of infection in Biden after treatment with antiviral medication is a rare case. Dr. White House physician Kevin O’Connor said in a letter that Biden “has no symptoms at this time and is feeling…

It seems like there's an upper limit by which necromancy would normally appear.

Gideon says "they knew by age five that she was not a necromancer" and Ianthe and Corona had been running their ruse from the age of 6, presumably as it would otherwise have become apparent that Corona was not a necromancer.

So perhaps necromantic education also begins around that age, or even earlier in cases where aptitude has become apparent earlier: Harrow remembers her mother teaching her necromancy with "her fingers encircling the fat baby bracelets of Harrow’s wrists", which makes it sound like she was very young indeed.

And obviously there is a level of horror that is simply normative in the Houses, and perhaps doesn't register as particularly unusual to children. But some of what we know, and some of the implications, are just awful.

How do you learn the Second's thalergy absorption? How do you scale up to a human? It's far too easy to imagine a young Judith priding herself on not being as squeamish as some of her classmates about absorbing the thalergy from a lab mouse.

It's easy to decry Ianthe's callousness at consuming Babs. But how young was she when a tutor first told her to take a bite of his flesh to help her with a tricky theorem?

The Fourth's specialty is thanergetic fission, which is a fancy way of saying they turn corpses (or themselves) into bombs. If he aspired to join the army at 11, what age did Isaac start to practice turning the dead into an improvised explosive?

Young Abigail was no doubt schooled in impeccable manners. How far did they help to cover up the effects on a child of first touching the veil between worlds and perceiving 10,000 years of feral ghosts?

Palamedes' necromancy may theoretically be more academic, but he was eight and trying to learn medical necromancy to cure his dying pen pal. And one can only assume the Sixth's approach to such things is very hands on.

Young Dulcie herself would have been learning how to harness the thanergy of the cancer that meant she was expected not to reach adulthood. She'd no doubt seen others die from it. Was her diagnosis celebrated?

When did Silas first siphon from the man who was engineered to serve him? How early did he begin to build up that childlike certainty that he would always come back to him? How long did it take to not feel afraid as Colum turned grey?

The 5 Best Vitamins For Hair Loss Prevention, Based On Research

Some research has shown that high-dose biotin supplementation can help in particular with improving the strength of nails in those with known deficiency. However, the research studies are flimsy when it comes to whether supplementing with biotin will further strengthen or accelerate growth in the hair and nails of healthy people. This topical solution, otherwise known as Rogaine, has been proven to treat hereditary hair loss in both men and women. Minoxide stimulates hair follicles and revives the hair growth cycle to encourage a thicker and healthier head of hair. As dermatologist Mona Gohara, MD, told Women's Health Magazine, our hair naturally thins over time. Breaking news, relationship updates, hairstyle inspo, fashion trends, and more direct to your inbox! The girl rocked a completely sheer dress without a bra — and later remarked that her only regret was not wearing a bedazzled thong to match. Then, there was the year 2015, when the Met Gala saw not one nor two but three naked dresses on the red carpet, all worn by Hollywood’s hottest A-listers. Jennifer Lopez, above, bared her famous curves in a custom Atelier Versace illusion gown. And Kim Kardashian West almost looked modest in comparison in her sheer Roberto Cavalli dress, because no one’s getting naked without KKW joining in. Zinc is important for growth and for the development and health of body tissues. These are applied directly to the affected area and can possibly stimulate hair growth over time. Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disorder where your immune system basically wages war on your hair follicles. The follicles may start to shrink, causing hair growth to slow down — or even stop altogether. And in some parts of the world, nutritional diseases and vitamin deficiencies can also cause hair to fall out. The link between stress and hair loss is well researched and proven. This again ties back to balance, or homeostasis, in the body, specifically in relation to the sympathetic nervous system and the adrenal glands. "Both of these hormone , if out of balance due to high stress, will create hair thinning and loss," says certified trichologist Penny James. From decorations to dress up your home or venue to snacks that are sure to please your guests, we have everything you need to throw a memorable party. Our large selection of party supplies is available online and in stores, so you can shop the way you want and benefit from our competitive prices. Abdel Fattah NS, Atef MM, Al-Qaradaghi SM.

WHAT ARE UR FAVE CASSUNZEL FICS

CRACKS KNUCKLES

Shards by @colossusrhodes -- starting off strong with a fic that should be in everyone's cassunzel fic rec lists. This is an epilogue story that details what Cassandra got up to in her travels after leaving Corona, and then how she came back for Rapunzel when Rapunzel fell sick with a mysterious illness. It's determined that Rapunzel is sick because she still has the moonstone shard inside of her!!! They go on a quest together to find a cure. Epic, heartwarming, and incredibly well-written, PLUS it has a sequel fic (that I admittedly haven't read yet).

Unions and Reunions by @erazonpo3 -- Another epilogue fic that takes a very different but equally satisfying direction from Shards. On her journey Cassandra discovers that she has a convoluted family tree because of Gothel's long life, and picks up one of her cousins as a traveling companion before making her way back to Corona. I LOVE the original character, the cassunzel is well-done, and there's even art made by the author embedded in the fic!

if i'm dead to you, why are you at the wake and shining just for you by permets (that's my fiancee!) -- this is a pair of fics that have to be read together because one is from rapunzel's pov and the other is from cass's! They're a series of vignettes encapsulating the Yearning on both sides through the series.

fight me, princess by @owlconscience -- this fic is unfinished but soooo so worth reading! It's a comedy with plenty of cartoonish humor, and the premise is that Zhan Tiri never escaped during the finale and so cassandra never lost her moonstone. She doesn't know what to do with her life now so all she does is just antagonize rapunzel endlessly and pointlessly because it's all that makes her feel alive. It's really good just read it

Wild Nights with Rapunzel by love_killed_the_superstar -- the title makes it sound raunchier than it is, lmao. It's a sweet first kiss oneshot that I love for its atmospheric buildup and tenderness!

Honorable mention and shameless self-promo: Swear Not By the Moon, a vaguely Romeo-and-Julietcore AU where the moonstone and sundrop don't exist and Cassandra is the (lesbian) prince of the Dark Kingdom.

Today I've been thinking about the absolutely fantastic Peter Parker, the Spectacular Spider-Man #177 (W: Kurt Busiek, A: Sal Buscema) for a few reasons - first and foremost, of course I love Buscema's work, but also because I think it has some underrated moments!

Busiek is a fantastic writer, better known for his work on Avengers in the late 90s and early 00s, but he's done some neat stuff elsewhere, including on Spider-Man (he did some of the Untold Tales, if you're familiar with those!).

The plot of #176-177 is pretty standard stuff, Spider-Man vs. the Evils of Capitalism that have of course resulted in the so-called SoHo Fever that eventually plagues the area.

Corona is a well-thought out and interesting character, in good company with other largely sympathetic antagonists that show up in Spider-Man comics.

It also has some good PeterMJ moments, even if momentary fear sets in when Mary Jane herself falls ill.

...but as you might expect, I really want to talk about Harry.

Harry's involvement of course begins when his son Normie falls ill with the SoHo Virus. Perhaps tragically though, this is also the start of the indication that not all is well with our dear boy:

I actually love that Peter gets Harry on board to help him find a cure for the sickness. After the obvious choices, he goes to Harry. And that's putting a lot of trust in his friend! It's so wonderful and sweet and I have a lot of feelings about it.

There are also some weirdly sweet moments between Harry and Spider-Man, which makes you start to wonder...

It's very sweet, and honestly I consider #177 a top ten Parksborn issue. Like I'm not even kidding. It's so good. And of COURSE I love dad!Harry with my whole chest.

The whole kicker in this issue is that we learned in Web of Spider-Man #67 that Harry does know Peter is Spider-Man...

So it almost makes all the little random touches and his incredible concern for Peter's well-being hit all the harder. He KNOWS that's his friend. And next to his son, he's doing this for Peter, for MJ, and you know what? After the events of the above mentioned issue (Web #67) when Peter basically told him to trash the costume, it probably felt pretty fantastic to Harry - crisis aside - to be able to be a big hero in some way - like his friend.

Of course, all this great development is about to go through the goddamn shredder in the next issue of Spectacular (as that is when The Child Within starts) BUT I really, really enjoyed it while it lasted. The tale of Corona is two parts tragedy and one part hope, but it's only two issues and it's a great read.

The fact that Coronabeth is only attracted to people who aren't into her... The fact that Judith has been hiding her crush on Coronabeth since they were children... The fact that Coronabeth is in love with Judith...

It does something to me!!

Would Corona be instantly cured of her love for Judith if she found out Judith has been in love with her this whole entire time?

Is Judith's repression and stubbornness paying off just this one time?

Is it mutually unrequited for real because as soon as Judith confessed it would be instantly unrequited?

Or would they kiss immediately as soon as they found out...

I don't know... I can only ask questions...

2/5+1

This time, they came prepared. On some level, she supposed, she might find it flattering. Manacles, wide canvas bands, a straitjacket – equipment redundancy that said "well, we don't want to have to use desperate measures, so don't make us have to" with enough false reluctance to give whichever poor sod hated their job some mental respite or, better, whichever sick fuck enjoyed it some plausible deniability.

The weight of the cuff they fastened around her ankle could give both types something to chew on, though, and suggested enough wiring that it could give her a Worse Time, which – considering the level of Bad they'd already reached – might, on that same level, be considered impressive.

Camilla was unimpressed. She fixed their fourth and most desperate measure, Coronabeth Tridentarius hovering at her bedside, with as steely of a glare as she could muster while flat on her back, belatedly registering that the Third was trying to say something in a pleading tone: " – them a reason to hurt you, Millie. Don't do anything heroic, for God's sake – not that you can in that state. I think the anklet's just an intimidation tactic; it's brutish and heavy-handed, but we've got too much utility for them to use it." The violet eyes narrowed. "As long as you let them treat you."

Ah. Right. Her embarrassingly literal cabin fever. She couldn't quite remember what she'd done to warrant the abundance of caution their captors were handling her with, but she was vaguely proud.

"You must have always been an outrageously bad patient. Medics always are." Corona flounced into the bedside chair, the sulk all but visibly cascading through her curls. "I know they don't care about you or me, not really, but you don't let anyone take care of you, do you?"

Despite herself, she summoned the phantom sensation of their quarters on the Sixth, a cool hand on her forehead, less effective than what necromancy could offer but more soothing to them both; a thermometer under her tongue, a kiss to her over-warm cheek –

“I think,” Camilla said, “I liked it better when I was still delirious.”

“Oh, lovely. You’re definitely recovering if you can be droll again,” said Corona.

Camilla looked back at the ceiling and didn’t correct her.

“Hmph. If you’re doing so well, I’ll go and see if they can dispense with the rest of…all this.” Corona tossed her shining head and said, with nearly-convincing regret, “I don’t think they’ll be so pliant about the anklet, though. They want to talk to you about something Sixth House-related, and I think they mean business.” She paused. “They were going to wait until you had recovered enough to talk coherently. I could plead your case, you know, try and stall for more time.” “It’s fine.” “You were still muttering to yourself as recently as yesterday.”

“No.”

“God. On your head, then.” Corona stood and stalked toward the door, muttering, “I don’t even know why I try.”

Alone again, Camilla closed her eyes and saw only the backs of her eyelids. The image had been so close at hand – so freshly recalled –

It must have been a sense-dependent memory, an echo of the last time she’d had a high fever; of care she would welcome – of cures she couldn’t have now.

Anon wrote: Hello, Thank you for all the insightful posts . I am an INTP and the Issue I am having now Is I am born in a third world country in a small town not economically thriving . A non democratic country that doesn't teach you anything of substance , the elite kids go to the west and we the poor people have to study in rote memorization and passing the exam and before we know it the aha moment of how weak we are hit harder .

I dropped out from university in order to medicate myself from tuberculosis , and then I get cured , and the corona virus lock-down happened and then my father died and my aunt died . All have effected me deeply . The money I have saved for future interviews was wasted . And Now I am definitely in a Si loop , stuck and sometimes my mind and daydreaming sends me to dark places , wishing death upon myself , wanting to just end it , imagining myself being angry and hitting someone and hitting his face with my feet . I truly have become unhealthy and destructive . Feeling guilty , imagining how I could have done it better .

I constantly feel worthless and think how useless I am and how I wish I was never born because I am not going to be amounted to anything ever . The home situation is unhealthy , I have always been belittled , made feel worthless , insinuated to feel bad about myself . I remember since I was a kid , never felt loved or cared for , just been reminded how odd , slow , in my head , and not going to be as much as good as whom ever they compare me with .

I have an unhealthy ESFJ mother who can't be reasoned with . Explosive , hot temper , not logical or cares about clear communication . Her and my sister are truly insecure . I will Explain a scenario , we are in a bad economical situations , my brother triggered her , she started lashing out on everyone , cursing and insulting how useless we are without hearing or having a communication . I left to my room till they stop , because I can't handle this anger and drama where we can fix them if we think through things but she doesn't want to think or communicate . She confuses communication with complaining because for her communication is only a vehicle to use to release her hostile feelings and passive aggressiveness .

When I come back , she said why did I run to my room . I said I can't handle screams and this chaotic production of words . She said , you should and they started her and my sister : ISFJ , speaking at the same time , like literally at the same time . I asked them one by one , she said No why not listen to us both at the same time . Like what a hell is this . Here you notice and many patterns I have that they don't care about fixing the problem , they don't care about reasonably indulging members of the family to a conclusion , they want to release the tension . My mother specifically wants to release her hostile emotions , she wants us to feel belittled , useless , tell us how she is the only one who thinks about this issue and how useless we are and she thinks this is parenting , she thinks this is leadership.

Now I know since my father died who was an ISFJ , He was our only economical support and he was dutiful and doing his best to get me into a position where I can take the family but even he had issues with her , she swallowed him through her drama , passive aggressiveness , and her hostile attitude , belittling him too and comparing his lack of privilege to others who had far more advantage as if he had a choice in the cards he was given . Since this economical shortage only enraged her and made something to complain about and our household was not of kindness and mercy , I subtracted my needs since way back but my brother still takes from her money and she gives him and she comes back to complain and ruins the household .

The reason I brought my father is I feel bad for not doing anything for him and what a shame that he had no one to help him . He really deserved better and needed more care and love and I always felt unable to do anything when he had cancer . He apologized for me as if he felt bad for not doing enough for me . My friend . I really think and have evidence that my mother and family are unhealthy . I live in illiterate religious area , how do you think Fe and Si expression would be ? -- They don't care about reason , just any high status man who has money or is religious or looks religious matter and his opinion is far better and I , could speak for years and no one would care .

I think she is unsafe and unhappy and her hypergamic instinct produces this passive aggressive tests because she thinks by belittling us , we are going to somehow be motivated to provide and replace my father . She doesn't understand how the Ukraine|Russian war affected us , how our government changed policies to hire more females , she doesn't understand that I can't just get a job , it's all difficult in this competitive environment and I just have lost 3 years where tuberculosis , Corona virus lock-down , death of my father and the shock and depression this made me feel and let alone her training me to feel worthless isn't going to make me more optimistic individual because I can't even film myself speaking in a content creation out of fear and being self conscious of my voice nor dreaming of being able to be loved and desired by any female in romantic relationships to get out of this toxic voice in my head that hammers me and find some refuge in lovely partner .

I know I am unhealthy too - -- I read your study guides and my functions are all unhealthy and I could release the anger and hit someone or could not be able to contain myself and verbally defend myself if I get triggered . I am still studying to find a way to improve and optimally express all my functions but please with the contexts I have provided . How can you help me find answers to this following questions :

How can I remove this worthlessness and feeling I am useless from my mind and how I perceive myself ?

How can I trust that I would be able to get a job in this country and town ? I have limited skills like English and my native language because of time that was wasted ? [ I am planning to use the 4 Hour work week principle that prioritizes Te and Ni for effectiveness , working on skills to learn , 20/80 Analysis , low information diet , delegation and automation , and creating a product to sell to liberate myself from traditional 9 to 5 ] - I don't work in 9 to 5 Jobs . I Don't have any job now .

How can I deal with this toxic mother and her hostile attitude and her inability to be satisfied ? .

How I can heal the wounds that this mother infected me with since I speak to myself a lot and I get lost in my thoughts and she notices and doesn't try to understand , she tries to insult and belittles and laughs at me as if i am some crazy dude . It's the only place I feel safe and I have no friends and my mother doesn't talk to me except to release her tension , so I opt to my head and this had negative affects because my thoughts swallow me and I become self absorbed and any one notices I am speaking to myself and lost it . I do that because I am unhealthy , broke , unemployed , no job , and no healthy environment to drive me and give me help .

Do You think since I am unhealthy , I would waste time reading and consuming information about the study guide as some unhealthy coping mechanism and I should better opt to just exercise a few Ne Activities to drive myself out of my self and subjective narrative and my family and explore few experiments rather than read every detail and wait till I finish to exercise my functions ? Like see how Ne world is good and come back to reflect .

-----------------------

1. "Feelings" of worthlessness or uselessness are simply judgments (about yourself). In order for judgments to be sound, one must arrive at the conclusions properly, through logic and reason. This is the basis of having good critical thinking skills.

For instance, you say you "fell behind" in career goals due to physical illness. Was the illness intentionally caused by you or was it under your control? If not, should you hold yourself responsible for the consequences of being ill? Are you going to call every physically ill person in the world worthless/useless because, through no fault of their own, they have diminished capacity to achieve their goals? If so, I see no difference between you and your mother when it comes to the way you harshly and unfairly judge people.

Are you exercising good critical thinking when you make a judgment or draw a conclusion? If not, you need to improve upon it, in order for Ti to regain control over your cognition. You must have a reliable process of scrutinizing and validating your belief system, otherwise, on what basis are you going to make good decisions for yourself? When Ti is absent, Fe grip will keep haunting you.

2. Trusting the world comes with Ne development. It means venturing out into the world. It means trying and experimenting and seeing what happens. It means going to wherever the opportunities are. It means thinking of ways to make the best use of what you have. It means turning the negative into a net positive.

In other words, Ne is an extraverted function that requires initiative, ingenuity, and action. Ne is not about your predictions of the future; it's about making things happen. You can always find something good to express gratitude for. You can always find a silver lining in a negative situation. You can always visualize potential for change and improvement. But the key is to have an attitude of openness that keeps your eyes and ears attuned to opportunity. Are you nurturing Ne openness in yourself, or are you quick to reject ideas because they are "imperfect"? Whether things are perfect or imperfect is missing the point. The point is that things can be changed as long as you're willing to put in the work to change them.

3. The answer is boundaries. I've already written about the difficulty of drawing healthy boundaries in family relationships, especially parent-child relationships, consult past posts. Because there is so much history and, in some cases, so much bad blood between family members, it's easy to get stuck in negative patterns of behavior, and very difficult to change them even when you want to. Old habits are hard to break.

I always say that an essential aspect of growing up is learning how to view your parents as human beings rather than treating them as mere symbols of your personal ego drama. Was your father a "saint"? Is your mother a "villain"? These are symbols that reveal the flaws and biases of your perception. In the end, your parents are simply people. Every person is multifaceted. If you only ever see one aspect of someone, your eyes need adjustment.

Put yourself in your mother's shoes. Your mother also lives in the bleak sociopolitical environment you live in, with few economic opportunities. She has also experienced disappointments and heartbreaks. She has also had her hopes and dreams dashed. You share a lot more in common with her than you believe. To be clear, this is not meant to be an excuse for her negative behavior but, rather, a call for you to exercise empathy.

When you get a deeper understanding of why people behave as they do, you will be less inclined to blame and more inclined to maintain healthy relationship boundaries. The key to dealing with toxic people is to maintain proper emotional distance from them, rather than getting entangled with them and constantly embroiled in their dramas. To have healthy relationships in general, you must i) know the difference between "my business" and "not my business", and ii) stop involving yourself in things that aren't your business.

Her issues and problems are hers, so don't take them on as yours. It's not your responsibility to satisfy her demands. It's not your responsibility to live up to her expectations of you. Your only responsibility, in moral terms, is simply to be a good person. This raises an important question of whether you understand what it means to be "good". Do you have your own ideas about it or do you default to what your family taught you, since your judgments about yourself closely echo your mother's judgments about you?

Do you know what intergenerational trauma is? It's when families transmit the negative effects of unresolved hurt, pain, suffering, abuse, and trauma from one generation to the next. You are now consumed by pain and anger, not unlike your mom, so are you going to unwittingly transmit it to everyone you come into contact with? Or are you going to be the one to stop the cycle of trauma by taking responsibility for your pain and suffering? By seeking help, you're proving that you care enough to change the situation. I understand that your options are limited for healing your pain and trauma, so I will focus mainly on what you can do on your own.

4. With regard to Anger: If you don't want to end up like your mother, hurting everyone around her, then you have to confront the pain, you have to soothe the anger properly, and you have to challenge yourself to do things differently. This is achieved through Ne. Envision your better self and be it. Envision a better life and live it. Envision more possibilities and bring good ideas to life. By training your mind to be focused on always building something better, there is little space remaining for things like anger and blame.

I completely agree that your family environment is incredibly toxic. However, I cannot agree with blame. Blame is a mental trap. It is an immature and illusory way to feel strong and powerful. It only leaves you worse off physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. For all the sound and fury that blame entails, at the end of the day, you remain in pain because you've trapped yourself in perpetual victimhood. Without adequate health and well-being, will you have the mental energy you require for improving yourself and your life?

You can't have it both ways; you can't feed the negative aspects of your psyche and still hope to get back in touch with the positive aspects of yourself. Is the anger worth sacrificing your health and well-being for? Are you attached to the anger because you like the self-righteousness or because you want revenge? If so, you are choosing the negative over the positive, and you must take full responsibility for that choice. If you don't like it, choose differently.

With regard to Despair: When you feel angry, it means that something is broken and requires fixing. In this case, the relationship is broken and your boundaries have been violated. Like any reasonable person, you hope it can be fixed and the love salvaged. However, when confronted with the impossibility of fixing the relationship, despair follows.

Many people get held back and held down by despair because it can feel like a safer emotion than hope. Why? Despair is predictable in that you can maintain the status quo of known pain, whereas hope opens you up to new and accumulative hurt and disappointment through trying and failing again and again. As soon as sinking into despair seems like the better option to you, you are stuck deep in Si loop.

A person with good emotional intelligence doesn't succumb to emotions, rather, they take time to understand them and use them wisely. By putting despair in the right perspective, it can become an incredibly powerful emotion. Despair indicates you've suffered great loss and feel hopeless. However, in order to feel the loss, you must've placed great value on something to begin with. From this perspective, despair can open your eyes to what is most precious and valuable in your life. For example, despair over family conflict reveals how much you value your family, and despair about your career reveals how much you value your future self. When you know what you value most, it's easier to make good decisions for your well-being.

Despair is meant to teach you how to let go of the things you've lost. Oftentimes, people suffer because they are too attached to the things that bring them pain. Being unable to give up the attachment, they must bear the pain as a consequence. Logically, if you don't want the pain of despair, you must let go of the attachments that bring you despair.

Some people might misinterpret "letting go" as license to "detach" from the world and live on a metaphorical island, abandoning all the things they don't like. Quite the contrary. These people have failed the first test of emotional intelligence because they believe that their emotions are caused by external factors, so they try to cut out those factors.

The fact is that your feelings and emotions belong to you. They are generated by you, therefore, it is up to you to either answer them or change them. Your feelings are closely tied to your beliefs about the world, the way you think about things, and the way you judge things. When I say that you need to "let go", it means you have to change the way you think, give up old ideas, so that your beliefs better line up with your new reality. When you let go of mental attachments that distort your view of reality, you become much more capable of participating in reality. You will no longer feel bound and trapped by your own imagined expectations of how the world "should" be.

Career Example: Have you heard the saying "The best-laid plans of mice and men often go awry"? No matter how well you plan things, unexpected accidents or misfortunes still happen. While it's good to have plans and look forward to achieving goals, it's not good to be so single-minded that you are incapable of adapting to change. When plans go awry, you are encountering a crossroads and have to make a decision about which way to go. Do you try to keep going with the same plan? Do you tweak and adjust the plan to better suit the change of circumstances? Do you abandon the old plan and come up with a new one? These are all possible strategies.

Family example: Do you understand that a toxic relationship dynamic requires two people to keep it going? Both you and your mother are attached to ideal images of how the other "should" be. By imposing these images upon each other, you are both failing to respect each other, you are both violating the boundary that should exist between you as separate and independent individuals, and you are both hurting each other with harsh judgments and criticisms. While you might keep your judgments and criticisms to yourself more than she does, their very existence represents something negative within you that wants to lash out and be violent. She most likely inherited that violence from her family growing up and she has now transmitted it to you, which means it is now yours to deal with. All of us have inherited some negative things from family. It's part of your personal journey of growth to become aware of them and change them.

To a certain extent, you "allow" your mother to hurt you because you love her. If she were anyone else, you probably would've abandoned them long ago for such nasty behavior, or you wouldn't even be bothered by their criticism. Your mother's behavior brings you pain because you want her approval and love. However, if you were to drop your attachment to what you believe she "should" be (e.g. a loving, nurturing, motherly saint), you may suddenly find yourself capable of seeing the reality of what she is. When you take time to see and understand people more objectively (i.e. practice empathy), you won't take their behavior so personally. The reality is that her behavior isn't directed at you. Her behavior is an expression of her own pain and suffering, directed at her own failures and dashed hopes. But you take it personally because she's failing to meet your expectations of her, and then you fashion her into a villain. Think more reasonably: If you believe you ought to have the freedom to be you, you also have to grant others the freedom to be who they are.

The takeaway point is that the way through despair is to let go of the attachments that bring you pain. It could be attachment to an idealized image of how people/you "should" be, an ideal concept of "meaning", or an ideal path that you have set for your life. Ideals are mere mental constructs, so they can be changed at will. You defined them, so you can "undefine" them and redefine them. Attachments that lead you to deny reality are like a black hole in your mind, sucking up all your mental energy. By letting them go, your mind becomes truly free for something new. But you have to be brave enough to leave the known behind and venture into the unknown with fresh eyes, open mind, and different choices -> Ne.

5. I don't consider it my place to tell people how to live their life. You need to learn how to exercise your best judgment, which means ensuring that your process of making decisions is fair, impartial, objective and well-informed. In terms of your mental health, it's a good idea for you to get out of the home as much as possible, away from your mother's abuse. Try to find safer spaces to explore your ideas and possibilities. Try to engage in activities, interests, or hobbies that bring you some relief, even joy. Try to make friends with people who can bring you comfort or help you out of your situation.

Note

I just realized that even though i see your art of him and you talk about him a lot, i don't actually know anything about aiden. so. infodump to me about your OC lore please.

!!!! hi <3 I have SO MUCH to say about Aiden- and yet I don't share that much about them! I draw them a lot but never give much context, my bad xP

I did answer an ask a while ago about them here if you want! it has all the basic infos you might need and I've just updated it a bit because some stuff was outdated and I wanted to add some details. I also think you can find (very) few things in the eryanwrites tag

But you're asking for infodumping so!!! Imma infodump MORE >:3c

(this is in addition to the post I linked- you might want to read said post before, to have more context)

⚙ Backstory stuff

Despite being born in Old Corona, Aiden spent half of their childhood in another village even farther away from the capital. This village is run by a small saporian community and was mostly filled with travelers so people tended to come and go, lots of witches came by looking to seal their power to pass as human. So Aiden and their parents were easily welcomed there.

When Aiden was a child, the local Grandma (Aiden never learnt her name- she was just referred by everyone as Grandma) used to play with Aiden's hair a lot while she told stories. Aiden avoided cutting their hair for her, and even after her death they still refused to cut it.

Said Grandma was the village's healer and quickly became Aiden's role model. She was the first person to mentor Aiden in their quest to become a physician.

Aiden's second mentor is the current royal physician, the only one who didn't leave when the Queen got sick and no one could find a cure. Both of Aiden's mentor were/are unhinged and definetly shouldn't be trusted to teach children but that's why I love them.

Aiden is very not normal about human bodies. Both because of autism and the way their mentors educated them about it. Aiden is pretty desentisized about stuff most people would find gross.

⚙ Aiden's relationship with other characters

Aiden has a pretty good relationship with their parents. They're very loving people but a tad overprotective, it kinda made Aiden avoid talking to them about big problems because he was scared to worry them more than necessary, but overall they all love and care for each others. Aiden is just terrible at understanding and communicating his own needs.

They have many friends within the castle since they've been working here for a while now. They're also known outside of the capital since his mentor sometimes send them away, either on errand or to take care of villages without doctors.

Aiden isn't close to the main cast of tts, beside Varian. He respects and admires most of them but he doesn't consider them friends since he never really got interested in getting closer to them. They do know they can count on him when any of them gets hurt or sick, it's his job after all.

Aiden has a bestie- his name is Daniel, he's the son of the merchants proccuring most herbs for the physicians, and is currently part of the royal guards. He isn't a very fun person but Aiden enjoys how down to earth he can be.

⚙ random stuff

During the series Aiden went through like... 4 different leg prosthesis in one year because people (bad guy of the season) kept on breaking it. (I'll admit it was my go-to excuse as to why Aiden doesn't appear in canon. They're always off screen doing random things or laying on the floor stuck somewhere 😔)

They're very sensitive to temperatures since the Storm that made them lose their leg.

Aiden's magic got sealed by a tattoo on their back when they were very young, so as they grew up the tattoo got deformed and the seal weakened. Their extended family is the ones completely getting rid of it- by removing part of the skin. Hopefully for Aiden he was under hypnosis when that happens and he has no memories of it whatsoever. Varian is the one who found out about it and it made him really mad.

So you know Venefica's magic is linked to mind control. And Aiden caught feelings for Varian long before he caught feelings for them himself. Varian is very obvious about his feelings, yet Aiden doesn't acknowledge it at all. That's because they're somehow convinced Varian's feelings aren't genuine and is caused by their own magic they never learnt to control.

I mentioned witches cannot break promises so they avoid doing any, since it can easily end badly for them. Aiden (so far) made 2 : one to Quirin and one to Donella. The first one lowkey resulted in the loss of their leg. The second brought distrust between them and Varian. So yeah. Promises bad.

The only reason Hugo is allowed to call them Hobble is because he helped a lot with their prosthesis and still does

⚙ shipping stuff

At this point if you don't know I ship Aiden with both Varian and Hugo then-.. Idk how you escaped all my posting about them but I admire that, this is impressive. Anyway-

I wanted to try doing an actual love triangle so when each of them catch feelings it starts with : Aiden -> Hugo ; Hugo -> Varian ; Varian -> Aiden. Then things just... happen and at some point they all have feelings for both of the other and they are struggling to figure out what to do about it.

The first two to get into a relationship are Aiden and Hugo, but it's not really romantic, they're just having fun. Hugo quickly understood Varian was the team leader but the boy kept Aiden in high regard, so getting Aiden on his side would eventually bring Varian to it too. Aiden is very aware of it and is fine with it as long as Hugo isn't actively trying to get them hurt.

I have.. the worst love triangle dynamic chart ever :
