The "Space" episode of Bluey just made me ugly cry in front of my 2-yr-olds.

#this fucking show #oh yeah so anyway parents are still adults who need help and healing and the writers have managed to get this insane balance #of lessons and encouragement for kids and adults at the same time #bluey #parenting #everybody needs therapy #aaaaaaa

So, loved the new chapter...but...I agree with you about the fluff. It was great...but it was kinda like ok when is it going to drop? I so related to Nat during the scene when she was "trying to maker herself busy." Something I've learned studying psychology/trauma...when you go through so much (especially your whole life/at a young age) your brain literally rewires itself. You can no longer "relax." Your brain is subconsciously always looking out for the next threat. That being said...Yelena is COMPLETELY RIGHT and Nat needs to get into therapy lol. And Wanda needs to get back into it. Therapy for everyone lol (seriously though wonderful chapter as always)

Thank you! I can’t allow too much fluff, it isn’t my style :)

Historically, that is also what Nat has done when she isn’t doing well. She throws herself into work, and there isn’t any avenging to do right now, so house work is the next best thing. That is also right for Nat that she can’t really relax, she always has to be ready for the next thing to go wrong. Unfortunately, history has proven her right

And Yelena is pushing hard for therapy, hopefully Nat will at least go to one of Yelena’s sessions. And Wanda also needs to be back in therapy

Basically this that I just made:

I just watched the play All My Sons, and if you’ve never heard of it then that’s fine, I didn’t before my school was putting it on, but oh my gosh. I can’t even fully articulate how that play made me feel. Like, I’m pretty sure I should be crying but I think my brain is overloaded with the everything that that was. I don’t regret going, but I could not watch it again for fear of triggering a deep depressive mood and even now it’s maybe a little stretching it. I went into it knowing that it was going to be A Lot, I mean, they put a content warning in the program, and I had heard from other people how intense it was, but I still wasn’t prepared. I’m gonna go have a milkshake and maybe process everything for a bit.

#ahhhhh #all my sons #arthur miller #had some real gaslight gatekeeper girl boss moments in there #i’m shooketh #everybody needs therapy #and I mean everybody #the actors #the audience #the stage crew #the characters #everybody #strangely this just made me want to get back into theater even more #clearly I also need therapy

Slowly his mind was shifting to match the hues glowing across his skin. He was being tainted black with time. And wasn’t that just the most ironic thing for a child made of starlight and wonder to be turned by the world, morphed and shaped into a villain? Or at least what they thought was a villain. Really he was only a child. A kid falling and reaching out for help and all in return he got pushed back down into a hell he didn't deserve. Midoriya didn’t think he was a villain, he just wanted to save people, just wanted to fix what society had broken, but maybe we can’t always fix the things that have hurt us and maybe we can't always fix ourselves either. Or perhaps we never needed fixing in the first place, because no one is truly broken. Just hidden in the dust and blood.

I think a lot of people are frustrated sometimes when somebody expresses that therapy just "doesn't work" for them, and I used to feel that way, too, until I realized that the therapy that I was doing just wasn't right for me.

When people think therapy, I think many just assume it's all cognitive behavioural therapy and that that is the only kind of therapy out there. However, this isn't true, and CBT can absolutely be ineffective for certain situations. If you are confused by this idea, here's an example: when I was in the midst of my most recent abusive circumstance, not only was my therapy weaponized against me by my abuser, but also, the therapists I had were ill-prepared to treat ongoing abuse. They had the tools common for CBT, but there is only so much a victim can do before their circumstances are completely out of their control. In a case like this, CBT can be an unhelpful tool alone, which is why you have people who blanket statement say that all therapy is unhelpful (understandable why one would say that if they haven't had any helpful/good experiences).

It seems like people see this idea that "therapy doesn't work" as an automatic red flag, and certainly, I can imagine why one would think that. However, in a healthcare system that generally prioritizes CBT therapy as the "only therapy," it's helpful to remember that CBT isn't always the best option or the best option alone.

#mental health #mental health support #abuse #abuse tw #abuse mention tw #i just think it's best to not assume that people say this because they 'dont try' #i've had a decade's worth of CBT before i had to stop and it wasn't very helpful and i tried! #it's just that CBT doesn't 'need' to be specialized which means it tends to be cheaper than specialists #it's just really frustrating to navigate these spaces as somebody who's 'failed' CBT therapy #i think this therapy absolutely has its place and i think you can do cbt alongside specialized therapies #but i don't always think cbt alone is right for everybody - it wasn't right at all for me #and if i go to therapy again i'll probably explore alternatives or specialized therapy alongsode cbt #but that's probably if i get lucky #obligatory i am not a professional; i have just been a patient for a decade+ and speak with that experience in mind #actually the more i think about it the more fucked up it was that my abuser used therapy against me i never really thought about it as a kid #kept this one in the drafts for a bit but fuck it we ball

When you think about it, almost everybody had some more or less severe problems even before death game:

Sara was stalked (yes, Kai is good, but Sara didn't know that), she knew something was wrong with her family and didn't make many friends because of it;

Joe thought he was class clown, more tragically, he lost his dad (and if we believe manga, he was quite poor);

Keiji was the one to kill Joe's dad (presumably but likely) and even if not, Mr. Policeman was truly important figure, childhood hero, inspiration, so trauma was serious to the point of drinking too much alcohol and not sleeping;

Kanna was adopted and wasn't accepted well at first by her sister;

Gin's father is a drunkard, plus Gin's autism could influence his relationships and self-esteem (he did ask Midori if mother considered him a burden);

Shin's friend (likely the only one) was a madman that creeped him out, and when Midori left Shin tried to find him and wore his scarf despite all abusiveness of their relationships as he was that lonely;

Reko was pushed to do something she didn't like by her father in school, then she lost her brother as he murdered someone, so she left previous band and couldn't sing old songs (then she learned charges were false and singed the Asunaro vow but she forgot all about it);

Alice was convicted of murder, hated by own familly, later got to know Midori was alive and well but couldn't do anything except sing the contract;

Q-Taro had major health issues to the point of thinking about death, not being able to play (also he was adopted as well, through hopefully he at least wasn't bullied for this);

We know so little about Mishima, but he failed his entrance exam and he was hoodlum in general. I'd argue he had it quite well after he became a nearly model teacher, but still we don't know much. Plus he was suspicous which made some students afraid of him;

And Kai was like a tool for organisation from the moment of coming to this world. Raised to kill, witnessing Sei's death, growing numb, becoming loyal to Chidoins, not being able to be true brother figure for Sara whom he stalked... And he was likely betrayed by Mr. Chidoin. He had it rough. It's easier to count positive moments of his life than negative ones;

I think Nao was the only one without something tragic: ordinary family, friends, great teacher... Maybe she was a bit scared of him (as mentioned in YTTS), but overall she had a good life...

Why can't they be happy...

Hermione admires the fairy lights; their iridescent fluttering and tittering giggles fill the air with glad tidings and festive cheer, even as they guide her down a dubious path.

we went from neil admiring kevin whatever clusterfuck they get going soon after and then we also have moments like this :

i think i summed it up pretty well here ^^

kevin is so high-strung and literally works himself to the bone bcs that’s how he functions and there’s neil who hates being bossed around by kevin but also works himself to the bone bcs he too loves exy like THAT and then they bicker and fight and insult and love !! lots of love guys 🥰🥰 in french ofc

#everybody find urself an asshole like kevin who’s secretly just needs therapy but good luck if u manage to get him off the court #long enough for that #he’s so awkward and helpless and doesn’t really get social cues that matter w his 1 track mind jdjejdjd #neil grudgingly listening to kevin sometimes but other times telling him to shut the fuck up is so funny to me i’m crying #this is such a mess don’t @ me #aftg #all for the game #neil josten #kevin day

hey, about your sjm's abelism against lucien, i'd just like to say i 100% agree!! i'd like to point at other abelist things in sjm's writing and i apologize in advance bc this might be long.

as a disabled person, yeah sjm is pretty fuckin abelist, unintentional or not. tower of dawn's disability storyline starts out as ehh to downright awful as it employs the abelist fantasy trope of *~magical healing*~. although chaol comes to accept disability and others who are disabled by the end (which is good!), he gets fully healed :/ also yrene's treatment of him in the beginning was atrocious. telling him to stand up even though he couldn't?? it read like an abusive medical care worker

on acotar-related things, i disliked how feyre's father is depicted as useless until his death, where he "finally does something" buuut it ends with him dying. if someone is ill enough that they cannot do anything, calling them useless and then killing them when they save the day gives me the ICK.

finally, the way nesta's mental health was handled was abelist (same could be said with feyre and tamlin in their own ways) sjm cannot depict PTSD/trauma consistently or, hell, equally between her characters. her knowledge of this disorder seems so misinformed, either that or she purposefully cherry picked qualities, which is an awful way to portray any disorder. nesta's """healing""" in acosf was absolutely miserable. sorry not sorry but i don't think getting dicked down, chocolate, and meditation will help anyone get better from literal Post Traumatic Stress Disorder!! it's giving a middle aged white woman telling my disabled ass "have you tried yoga?"

anyway, sorry about my rant 😭 as someone who liked sjm as teen during early tog and acotar book 1, i am. very bitter sometimes.

Hi,

It is definitely good to get a perspective from someone who has a disability rather than from someone like me who is ablebodied and only has family members who are disabled, so my perspective is limited in that regard, so thanks for your views on the matter.

I hadn't read ToG yet, so I can't judge if it's ableist or not, but if it's true, like you said with the whole magic healing, then that's pretty bad, especially if she has no knowledge or even personal relations with topics like paralysis. The thing is magic healing in itself; I don't hate so much. It makes sense in a fantasy setting to maybe have advanced healing abilities, but to outright make a character who is disabled to completely heal and have no side effects or struggles later on is such bullshit, and this trope should die out as it is right now.

The problem with Papa Archeron I have is that he is a nonexistent character till the end. I don't know why sarah even bothered to write him in the story; he hasn't even gotten a name.

Also, his health problems are so vaguely described that I often forgot that he had any, and the fact that he is a deadbeat makes it even more atrocious that she portrays a man with physical and mental health problems as such an unlikeable throwaway character.

Don't get me started on Nesta. I hated every second of Acosf; everybody was constantly dogpilling on her, and for what?

Did she have problems and made mistakes? absolutly, but why is the inner circle (besides elain and feyre) in nestas business? Like,  nobody besides her sisters truly cared for her and wanted her to get better; they just wanted her powers and making her amiable so she could sit with them on their stupid dinner table and fondle rhysass ballsack.

The fact that they know to some extent that mental health problems existed in the night court since we got the library with the sa survivors, but the ic couldn't fathom to maybe just ask some healer what the best course of action for nesta is since she obviously struggles, is so baffling to me.

But since SJM thinks hiking/ training= therapy, I'm not surprised by anything anymore.

Don't worry, rants here are always welcome💙

every time i replay tlou2 i think i'm gonna be fine😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐be soooooooo serious😐😐😐😐😐😐

i'm bawling my eyes over the fact that joel had a "an idiot's guide to space" on his nightstand bc he wants to learn more for ellie i'm fine i'm so fine sooooooo fine

also i always liked ellie a lot (obvs) but i also thought that we would neverrr get along. she's rash, she holds nothing back and says just about everything on her mindout loud, very straightforward, she's awkward, she gets nervous, she acts bigger than she is, she's willing to do everything for her loved ones, her bark is so fucking loud, she makes terrible terrible jokes, she swears way too fucking much, she likes girls, she is a nerd, she gets excited easily, she has raging father issues and i am can't tell whether i'm describing myself or her at this point. i need a minute to think about this.

#i thought about not finishing the game on my first playthrough btw #just bc i was so upset with ellie😁😁😁😁😁 #sighhhhhh #this fucking game is insane and i love it so much #i need therapy after every playthrough fr #so lovely #i recommend #a+ #mickey is being a nerd about games #OH ALSO #grounded is not a joke huhhhh #everybody pray for me

I want to give Volo therapy

#shut up maverick #everybody is not taking nuance on twitter and it’s funny to me. #me: I need to give him therapy. and then push him off a cliff.

[hilarioushilarity]

I have four episodes to go but at this point I'm watching mainly to see if anyone goes to Boris this season like honestly

#young royals #i'm aware August goes to see Boris but I guess i'm more interested in seeing if Felice or Sara or y'know #WILHELM OR SIMON go to see the goddamn therapist because it sounds like everybody needs therapy

[major-fukkup]

As of today my workplace offers free healthcare (including physical care such as injuries and sickness AND mental care like therapy) in the form of ten free online visits per year which is a LONG way from the insurance they offer for the low low price of. About 50% of our average paycheck. 80-90% if you actually have to take time off to go to any of the places the insurance covers.

Anyway big W for me today because this means I might finally be able to actually get the therapy I so desperately need!!! And also maybe get back on the antidepressant I've been supposed to be on for the last three years, and maybe even figure out what's going on with my wrist, and my knee, and my back, and fuck it the rest of my body as well.

And hopefully get prescribed ADHD meds.

Granted I know I'm not going to be able to do ALL of this in only 10 visits but I'm hoping I can at least maybe START doing ONE of them until I can actually get insurance.

#real shit #also I am aware I don't need therapy I need friends #but maybe if I had therapy I could figure out what is so deeply and desperately wrong with me that makes everybody hate me #and thereby be able to make friends after that
