I've finally achieved my weird goal of becoming the kind of person who burns candles every night and drinks a shitton of herbal tea. ~

Mh + 

I'm doing better now, fwiw.

I went for a jog, showered (both very grounding activities for me), then visited cuddle friend and had a good time.

Now to either paint and finish hellbbyboy, or play that doki doki nonsense. Because perhaps ironically, watching the sexviolence fever dream, and consuming horror bs makes me feel better. *SHRUG*

Mh -, meds 

Hello, panic attack.

Decreased meds from 50 mg to 30 mg in process of cutting them out entirely. Maybe this is a reaction to that?

I have plans to see w cuddle friend in an hour, and I was really looking forward to it. I feel like if I go I'll be better off, but I also don't feel like I'm in my body.

Friends: it's okay to let the ppl around you fight their own battles. It's okay to let them fuck up occasionally. It's actually good for people to fuck up.

Irl friends texting me like "can you wake up your roommate? We're supposed to hang out in ten minutes."

Like, no, I'm not going to barge in and wake her up. She deserves her privacy. It's not my fault she's sleeping in.

Y'all see the Icelandic Indie Pop scene in the last episode of Gayle? It's very Mighty Boosh and I highly recommend if you got a minute.

My roommate and I have gotten into this pattern of peacefully ignoring each other, headphones on, reading/painting/watching junk/playing games, for about 2 hours at a time, then pausing to have a deep conversation for about 15 minutes, then going back to ignoring each other. It's very good.

We hosted a game day and it went really well!!

Also we finally set up the chairs at the table. Still need a couch, but progress is happening.

Oops I accidentally put milk in my herbal tea, yuck.

cw: hang over, food 

Oof. Woke up super hung over. X.X

I'm eating ramen now though, so that seems to be helping.

For witches only 

The votive candle I had going in the living room just put itself out.

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN.

ALcohol 

I did it

I am drunnnnkkkkkkkk

For example, today I managed to accomplish 65% of my goals (11/17). I feel productive but not drained and awful.

Exciting Week Ahead 

I have an exciting week planned!

Tomorrow I'm hosting a Game Day, and after that I'm trying out an aerial hoop class.

Monday I'm going to visit a snuggle friend, and later this week we're going to check out a pole dance class together.

I'm meeting a new client on Thursday, and on Saturday I'm going to get my hairs trimmed and dyed. Wee!

Okay, coffee is kicking in. Time to finally write this lesson plan. :P

there's power in "i don't have to earn this"

there's power in "i deserve to feel ok"

Work + 

Starting next week I'm going to be adding a second client to my caseload.

Which means that after this next pay period, I'll actually be making enough money to get by more or less comfortably.

Maybe we can buy a couch! :D

depression, suicide, hope 

Look around at the response to Natalie's death.

You will also get a response like that, I guarantee it.

Keep in your thoughts - make a pendant or a bracelet or something to remind you, if you have to - that even if it doesn't feel like it right now, people love you and will mourn you if you pass.

The burden you place on others, if it exists, is less than the heaviness of having you gone.

We don't want to have to miss you, I promise. ❤
