I hate the fact that the world has made me feel like I should be ashamed of myself because I need things to be able to function

Like I need my headphones due to high sensitivity but I feel like people look and stare wondering

I talked to my school counselor n talked about wearing sunglasses for classes because the lights are really bright and it makes me feel like people will look at me more

I hate that due to these I feel like I'm "too sensitive" despite the fact that some of these things have caused me physically pain. Getting headaches, my ears in pain because of the noise, crying because of all of it feeling overstimulated, shutting down because I can't handle it

It's really hard to remind myself that I'm not "sensitive" for something I can't control, it's not my fault that I have sensory issues, I didn't ask for it. I'm still a functional person who can do things I just need some extra help.

#that makes sense... #idk rambles #personal #sensory issues #shoutout to my therapist #who said it sounds like like what i was describing to her was #sensory processing disorder #n i was just like #but at least my counselor n family (iffy with my dad) dont make me feel ashamed

I'm not great at advice but in my expirence venting to a trusted person be it a parent a friend or a therapist relieves some of the weight so you can start to look at the better things not just drowning. I hope this helps!

thank you, I appreciate this so much <3 it might not fix everything but it does help, and that’s really all I can ask for

Shoutout to my therapist for remembering that A. I compulsively watch election results and that B. Election results make me want to die.

I really actually love this chapter specifically, mainly because you don't get many chances to see how little gung-ho guns actually care for each other, but this chapter involves not only that but also Legato having an Absolutely Terrible time

like, he's forced to eat food in some sort of straight jacket (due to, uh, spinal compression) and nobody else has cut his food for him, or is helping him with it in any way, but they are all watching him choke on it. And he is definitely not happy about it.

...And all of this seems incredibly cruel and fucked-up until you remember he can control people's bodies completely against their will (and we're reminded of it 2 pages later when he fucks up Midvalley for pointing a gun at him), which means he's doing this to himself on purpose? As some sort of weird self-harm??

Then, right after the world's worst work party, we have the world's greatest tone-shift by cutting away to Vash flipping the bike because he's over 100 years old but can't actually drive lmao

#trigunbookclub #trigun #really it's a very good chapter #the terrible work party...the bike crashing...the “how do *you* know what my brother looks like naked” talk...the duel...all good #someone get Legato a therapist I'm sure the workplace healthcare plan covers that much #not dental though. I refuse to believe the ghg actually get dental coverage. Unless they *only* get dental coverage and nothing else. #cw self harm mention #<- just to be safe #shoutout to the Overhaul project <3

in therapy today i just talked about the dark urge and astarion and my therapist was elated about it. it was fantastic. “wow you’ve really been using this story and those characters to process things. that’s amazing!”

the era of being ashamed of my interests is over. it’s apparently Cool and Healthy to use fiction to cope. i wish i could tell fifteen year old me about this it would blow her mind

#she speaks #arctic plays bg3 #bad brains blogging #you’re gonna have to pry SFF from my cold dead hands because ‘this creature is not human but nonetheless a person’ is THE most #important thing ever actually #i love taking my feelings and experiences and externalising and concretising them through metaphor #my favourite thing about astarion is how he both has literal cptsd AND metaphorically through his vampirism #that fucking rules #also shoutout to another thing therapist said today: #she was originally sceptical of my potentially having autism #then she was like ‘ok you have some traits but you’re probably not diagnosable’ #then today she was like ‘you make so much sense when one thinks of you through the lense of autism’ #amen sister i’ve been right there with you #but now i’m getting my second assessment soon! which won’t change anything about me i am and will be ‘tism-y regardless #but it’s going to be interesting to see what happens #also i told her about my WISC scores and she was like ‘jesus christ tell them to evaluate you for adhd too’ so uhhh #they already screened me for that and i believe i tested negative but let’s see #the WISC score was why i was even referred for an assessment so

[leguin]

also wild to me just reflecting on how much doing intensive therapy for 8 months did change my ability to be more emotionally open with people. i'm not like. fantastic with it, now, but at 18/19 it did not cross my mind even a little that i could and should tell people when i was having a hard time with things, at least not in any direct way. i didn't even think i had depression until i was in college and would be like 'oh well we all have at least one week a month where it's impossible to get out of bed' and everybody else was like actually we do not.

#shoutout to my generally unbelievably horrible former roommate who started going to the student health center for therapy #and recommended it to me #not that the therapists there were helpful but it was like...very destigmatizing for a friend to just casually go to therapy and mention it

The best accents are Irish, Norwegian, and New Zealand btw

#in that order #shoutout to Scottish people my new therapist is Scottish

He sucks. I can't stop sketching him.

#These drawings aren't the best!!! But my therapist keeps on telling me perfect is the enemy of good. #So I'll live. 😢 #Shoutout to the other 7 TWBB fans stalking the tag. #There Will Be Blood #TWBB #Daniel Plainview #Daniel Day-Lewis #Procreate #Digital Art

being properly medicated is crazy. not to sound like a cliche but its like... this is really how normal people feel?? for the first time ever im not in constant fight or flight-mode and wanting to kms over exams. i just handed in a synopsis for an important exam today and though part of it was catastrophically bad i was completely calm. i didn't know i have actual anxiety, i thought it was all thoughts and no, like, physical symptoms but now that im medicated for anxiety it's obvious that i do ive just had it so long i couldn't distinguish lol

#thank you thank you thank you to my psych nurse and therapist who both immediately clocked it. pregabalin is a miracle drug #also im sure finally being on antidepressants after 3½ years of untreated depression helps #shoutout to my new treatment team for not being assholes

the respiratory therapy students

a diagram of the cardiorespiratory system on your wall

carrying out an ABG test with careful, precise motions

listening to the movement of the lungs through a stethoscope

assessing patients, using your expertise to help others

the rhythmic sounds of a ventilator

doing what you can to make the hospital environment less frightening

understanding the importance of lung health

a deep love for your job, despite its hardships

the joy of knowing that your work is improving, even saving, people’s lives

related: nursing, medicine

master plan

1) don't kill yourself until after Taylor Swift has released all of the re-recordings.

2) figure out another long-term plan to look forward to so you don't kill yourself once the re-recordings are done.
