#it’s probably anxiety

[fairy-grotto]

The rampant nausea I feel while at work is something I should probably dissect but I’m not going to because then I have to admit that either the side effects of my drugs outweigh the good they do or that something else is amiss and I need to see a doctor again

#fairy is venting #it’s probably anxiety #not that I am diagnosed with an anxiety disorder #but it’s probably that #I overwork myself and am unkind to myself when I get things wrong #I would go down to part time or quit of being paid wasn’t so important #it could very well be my drugs though #I just don’t want to say it outloud cause then they’ll change them and I really only have two options of treatment #anyway #yay sandwiche for lunch! #feb 2024

craving pathetic wet old women characters. where is the feminism

#give me middle aged butches w anxiety & cats. older femmes w/ arm flab who refuse to age 'gracefully' #gimme a bilingual bisexual with a trench coat & crows feet & and no retirement savings #i want them bitter & jaded & dysfunctional & menopausal #i want to watch them make poor financial dietary romantic decisions (and probably commit crimes) where are they?????

[bowenoke]

#like this #trans #the ritual. #probably the rest of the trans community means 'oh nice fellow trans' i just have anxiety so I mean 'oh thank fuck' #i got home after having this happen to me 2x in one night and went mmmm banger post #and then it was

The amount of anxiety this girl gives him. Shes like a cat that keeps trying to eat food shes not allowed

#lol the amount of anxiety this woman gives him by eating dangerous shit for funsies #like it probably wont kill her so its fine lol #girl no #the apothecary diaries #Kusuriya no Hitorigoto #maomao #jinshi #mine

[jakeperalta]

the thing about me is that I will see my mutuals post about wanting to be friends with their mutuals and I'll be like "oh but they probably meant their other mutuals not you"

#logically i know this is probably not the case #but the social anxiety gremlin that lives in my brain is like 'how embarrassing if you messaged them and they didn't mean you' #so here we are #talking

[pangur-and-grim]

it’s hard for me to feed myself right now (just in terms of physical ability), so my mom drove me and the animals to her place. she carried the cats in first, because I had to butt-scoot up the front stairs, and once inside, Pangur got scared and ran. she’s tucked herself away somewhere, and nobody can find her. I probably could, and I could lure her out and make her feel safe again, except that I’m largely immobile. I keep falling on the crutches and fucking my leg up further, and the likeliest hiding spots are up or down a fleet of stairs. it’s been 4 hours, and it’s killing me not to look for her. I’m so tempted to crawl down the basement stairs, broken leg be damned.

#I have bad object permanence and anxiety #so my brain is saying ‘she’s gone forever’ #she’s definitely in the house but I’m getting scared bc worst case scenario is that stress has brought on a medical condition #and that she’s stuck somewhere and needs help but I can’t get to her #I know she’ll probably just come out later in the night once she feels safe. but it’s hard to lie here like a lump waiting

I think it would really benefit people to internalize that mental illnesses are often chronic and not acute. Some of us will never be able to jump the hurdle of managing illness, much less sustaining a sense of normalcy. Many of us will never "recover," will never manage symptoms, will never even come close to appearing normal - and this is for any condition, even the ones labeled as "simple" disorders or "easy-to-manage" disorders.

It isn't a failure if you cannot manage your symptoms. It isn't a moral failure, and you aren't an awful person. You are human. There's only so much you can do before recognizing that you cannot lift the world. Give yourself the space to be ill because, functionally, you are.

#mental health #mental health advocacy #like... anxiety and depression are often concieved of as simple and easy to manage... #...but that isn't the case for so many of us. anxiety and depression just have a lot more research invested into them... #...and while i wish this were the case for literally every other condition it does alter people's perception of you to some extent... #...so while this is NOT solely about anxiety or depression it includes us... #...my anxiety and depression and PTSD have *destroyed* my life. this is chronic and will probably be life-long... #...and that isn't my fault. i've done the fucking work but guess what? that doesn't account for the fact that I Am Just ILL #the least we can do for each other is to be compassionate #be compassionate to those who cannot heal. be compassionate to the people who can't manage their lives. this world is scary enough #recognize that management of symptoms is something not all of us can do - even IF their condition is labeled as 'easy to manage' #i allowed myself to feel angry that i can't heal 'normally' and that was unfair as fuck toward myself #and i NEED people to internalize this so that MAYBE this could help somebody else who is where i was #i NEED them to understand that it's okay that they are where they are - sometimes shit just doesn't turn out how you expect or want #don't beat yourself over you being a person. you are struggling enough. you deserve to rest. just rest please #and just... give yourself space

My rendition of @tempo-takoyaki's DTIYS!

Congrats on the milestones! And to everyone else, please go check out their 'Drawing TGCF (except I haven't read the books)' series!

#poorly drawn mdzs #mdzs #svsss #tgcf #wei wuxian #shen qingqiu #xie lian #better drawn mdzs #(Vaguely??? I think SQQ came out handsome enough to put him in my special gallery) #Showing up to submit this less than 3 days before the DTIYS ends is filling me with a bit of anxiety but it is done! #Initially I was going to do a descending level of realism/detail but noses make me nervous still. One day I'll get there. #The irony is that I was planning on drawing something to celebrate tempo finishing season 1 of their series only to find this DTIYS! #*and* it was their birthday recently. I am compelled to lift them into the air and shout their praises. #What a genuinely kind person with an art style I want to bite into like a crunchy apple!!! The *range* is incredible! #Also their xie lian is probably one of my favourite interpretations. So done with everything but not misanthropic. #Remembers everything and lets other's spin in circles with their lies for the sheer chaos of it all. Teases relentlessly. Deeply sad. #Give it a read! They are planning on continuing on so now is a great time to catch up! #Thanks for hosting this fun art challenge Tempo! We all appreciate you deeply B*) #I hope you have a better year in 2024 - you truly deserve the best.

I keep getting messages asking me if my header picture is me and I say yes because it is BUT I feel very guilty because I'm wearing a TON of makeup, much more than I usually do and even a bit of eyelid tape to alter my appearance so here are some minimal makeup selfies 👉👈 (I'm wearing mascara in the first and eyeliner/lip gloss in the second.) My haircolor is also fake (I'm naturally brunette) and I sometimes wear colored circle lenses. To the 4 (!!!!!) girlies who messaged me so far that have made comparisons between my appearance and their own with a very unfavorable opinion of their own I promise I do not look like that picture 99.999999% of the time and in real life I am pretty plain and unremarkableand it is very possible that I would wish I looked like you if I saw you. 🙈

#im feeling really vupnerable making this post rn but i care more about not perpetrating girls' negative self image through comparison #than i care about impressing people with a false image of myself 🙈 #i will probably delete this later because I dont have a good feeling about posting it but maybe it is just anxiety idk idk idk #you're all hot ok #mine

i hate this one specific type of anxiety i experience where i just feel like i did something wrong. Like almost as if i did something really bad and im waiting for the consequences. and it takes me out of my headspace and im just sitting here thinking...what did i do? what am i not remembering?

#i know this is common #but my anxiety manifests in a lot of ways and is usually very physical #versus the intrusive thoughts #as im tying this i remember i stopped taking my SSRI #and that probably explains why im feeling this way and havent otherwise the past year or so :')

"You are a stubborn little thing, do you know that?"

"I do. Though, would you have me any different?"

"No, I would not."

"Why?"

"I would miss the way your soul burns with passion for what you believe in."

"How romantic. Anything else?"

"...and with how adorable it is that you think you can challenge me."

"Ah, there it is."

#my art #lex x nightmare #lexverse #sans au #sans #undertale au #caycantdoodle #nightmare sans #lex and nightmare often relax and talk about things #he sometimes addresses her anxiety and uses his power in a therapeutic way for Lex #She is stubborn as hell and often tests her limits with him #She gives him comfort though and she knows not to go to far. #He likes holding her #if she oversteps and upsets him #she lets him cool down and she comes back later #and they'll sit down and hold each other #and he'll address the issue then probably love on her #wink wink
