*me, at work just minding my business and singing to the music of ‘wish you were gay’ from Billie Eilish*
I just kinda wish I was
Dead.
My colleague looks over super worried and I just start laughing uncomfortably
Casual existential despair is my jam mama *finger guns*

trying to stay positive in a world full of expectations you can’t seem to meet. 
pressure from society to be married by a certain age, have kids by a certain age but still be financially stable for those kids and yourself. but you can’t work more than 1 job or you aren’t spending enough time with them even though you are trying to provide them with everything you can and want by working that 2nd or 3rd job. don’t have too much debt but you also have to get a college degree in order to get a job, but the debt from school is 3x more than you’ll make in a year unless you’re lucky. 
family also wants you to get a college degree so you can get a good job but they don’t realize how the job market is and how every job wants you to have experience which you don’t have and can’t get if no one gives you a chance. they also want you to get married and have kids young but also enjoy marriage and don’t have kids too soon. they want you to not take out credit cards and rack up debt but how can you not when your entire paycheck goes to loans from school and bills to live that aren’t fully covered without the help of a credit card. the expectations are impossible.
i can feel my mental health deteriorating as every second passes but i can’t take a personal day. they’ll be short handed and my conscience can’t let me do that, but i know i need the time to work on me. I feel like a zombie trying to please everyone except myself and i’m watching life pass me by. trying to stay positive when everything mentally is crashing down seems impossible. but it must be done if i want to accomplish anything in life. 
I must be as positive and bright as this elephant. they are strong and caring animals and i must be that strong and caring as well.

To love and to destroy
Everyday is kinda the same around here with a son who has a sensory disorder amongst other things, You wake up and know that it is going to be a wild ride.  
My son is an interesting case, like most kids with multiple mental health issues, for my son he has tantrums ....but his biggest crutch for when he is hurting on the inside is to destroy items and hurt himself, today we found that Zade had taken our home phone and shattered it into a million pieces.  I very calmly told him that we had found the phone destroyed and he needed to go to his room.... 15 minutes later my other kids come running because somehow Zade had hurt himself and its just so much....... sweet baby boy had to get some staples in his head but after much talk and so much love we talked him down from his rage and fit and helped him understand that he is wonderfully normally abnormal..... The whole reason he was upset you ask? He was sad that he was not “normal” 
It is odd what comes over you sometimes in these extreme cases, when your child is flailing around and crying so hard that his whole face discolors and you feel so absolutely helpless.  Its like a weird peace, I know this sounds so strange but it just feels like some strange form of auto pilot...... I try to talk and deal with it and I am so numb but calm, trying so hard to not say anything negative that could hurt his fragile self esteem.  Sometimes, like tonight Jesse is there to relieve me and he is just amazing, he is firm and loving and can really GET to my son.  I mean don't get me wrong we all need to walk away and get some relief sometimes from the situation but for the most part he knows JUST what to do and say to calm Zade down.  He is my hero.
So I will cry my tears or I will walk away numb, tired, emotionally exhausted and I will call it a day, and know that tomorrow will be another ride.  Maybe it will be my favorite kind of ride, the kind where I wake up and the kids are good and nothing gets destroyed and there is no MAJOR breakdown....but I have six kids so that happens pretty much.... never.  This life is funny, I always thought I would grow up and have a career and maybe a couple of kids..... That certainly never did happen,God is funny...... but I am grateful for the life I have.  I have six beautiful children and a husband I cherish and love.  I have a crazy awesome home with chickens and ducks and fresh eggs, the cutest and most amazing puppies in my life! and I also have the most AMAZING friends.... ones who GET me, ones who step out of their way to comfort and love me....even when I am frustrating and maybe a little hard to love.  So all in all, love the bad because it truly reminds you of the good If you let it.

🌿💚🌿💚🌿💚🌿💚🌿💚🌿💚🌿 Taking my anxiety out on some dowels and made some bobbins. Also cut parts for a backstrap loom! Soooon. (Wood is probably too soft to last a while but eh, it's occupying my brainweasels.) 🌿💚🌿💚🌿💚🌿💚🌿💚🌿💚🌿 #bobbins #carving #mentalhealthishard #xacto #poplar

Sigh ... trying to get out the door for a few days away from it all, and should have probably left an hour and a half ago; but can’t just process through what needs done ... my brain keeps bouncing from one “oh do that, oh that must get done as well, oh but what about ...”
Sheesh. It’s just one of those days; worst-case, I’ll just get there late, but was really hoping to avoid that. 😬😬

Gotta have Thing #1 go get a COVID test tomorrow ... fingers crossed, please. The likelihood of it actually being anything is even smaller than the likelihood of her having it, which is *very* low ... but my brain is in full hyper-analytical “what-if” mode ... 😬😬😬

@the-queer-alien tagged for selfies ... and I’ve been going back and forth on what to post, even whether to post ... but whatever, here’s me and some thoughts.

... believe it or not, the tie-dye hoodie is a filter. 😅 ... makes me want more big oversized hoodies, though; especially tie-dye ones.

Actively avoiding going and logging in to work, and getting stuff done ... and I need to. I have competing anxieties right now: the “not working and feeling like I *need* to”, and the “working on the weekend when I should be doing fun stuff with my family or for myself” ... 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Would you just say how and what you're feeling right now at this moment..
Ooofff ... Anon. 😓 ... way to hit me right in the feels.
Okay here goes: it’s a crazy mishmash mixup of (and this is totally stream of consciousness, so bear that in mind) - sad, anxious, horny, tired, exhausted, stuck, frustrated, vibrating with creative energy, satiated ... I think that’s the heavy hitters, there’s a few others floating around in there; but ... 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️
