Mothra progress

(More Walking Dead, sorry)

I also love how at the end of the day "friendship is magic" is basically how the Rickettes save the day.

Like someone please share this schlocky ridiculousness with me, please.

I'm the spirit of sharing good pictures of good monsters, exhibit A:

Also Rick attacks it with an old PC keyboard, which is pretty fantastic.

Ooh forgot I was totally going to practice watercolors by doing a sketch of my little mothra doll. Yee exciting. :3

Does anyone on here watch Walking Dead?

I'm finally catching up on Season 7, which I told myself I wasn't going to watch, but, eh...

I'm a little over halfway through and suddenly things got very Tank Girl. Honestly enjoying the change of pace.

I'm really into being able to go into my room, shut the door, cozy up on my bed, and not be around any other human energies lately.

Like I don't want to shut myself off from the world constantly, but it's nice to be able to.

Hi, it's your newly fuzzy-headed birb friend.

Oh yeah, it's women's march today. Those pussy hats sure are something.

Catching up on Walking Dead (it's my guilty pleasure, don't judge [okay go ahead and judge]) and of course the majority of Walking Dead fans hated the episode I really liked... Because it focused entirely on female characters for once. *massive eye roll*

I'm looking up classes to take next month when I have money and- Intro to Lyra? Aerial yoga? Yes please!!

Got my 5 month evaluation today.
Got "satisfactory" in all categories except "decision making", apparently I need to become more confident in my own leadership ability. Which isn't especially surprising, but... Confidence is hard. :/

My hair is behaving today! Still can't wait to get it cut soon though. It's getting really big.

Both my kid and I are sick but stuck at school rippppp

I am tired and also sleepy. These are two different things.

Different pic for improved lighting/mothra front and center because she is goddess.

So I stole these from my nephew and to be entirely honest I might not give them back.

Anyway, found this passage from a book about boundaries (ironically it's a super Christian book, and I am I no way Christian myself, but contains a solid psychological foundation). It's about how boundaries do (or don't) form from a childhood development standpoint, and it's very relatable for me.

Like "oh, that's what happened. Got it."

Also, I haven't yet bought this book about multiplicity, but a friend recommended it and I want to read it asap.

Talking with people on this website has been really helpful for me, because it's way less scary than saying any of this out loud, and (no offense) has fewer real world consequences than say, for example, talking to my mom might.

One of my main interests lately has been boundary development & its interplay with multiplicity.

(FTR: I don't have DID, but theory surrounding multiplicity gives me useful vocabulary to discuss my gender and identity issues)

So... Some background:

I've previously addressed my mental health issues (anxiety, depression, dissociation, gid) with a "bandaide" method: treat the symptoms, increase my toolset to cope.

This has definitely helped me become a higher functioning adult. But lately I've been wanting to address my core issues in terms of values, identity, cognitive distortions, and patterns of interacting with others.
