mood, media, gripe, rawr (-) 

I'm just so bloody bored. Surrounded by distractions, terabytes of media accessible, dozens of games, and bored out of my mind. And feeling intensely aware that something is probably really fucked up about both me and my culture.

@zebratron2084 Mrahwr... Is there anyone you can talk to about getting screened for depression? Those days have been ranging from exhausting to excruciating, and... well.

@balinares The short answer is "no, I've tried and the bureaucracy required would have far too high of a Sanity Point cost."

Also... I mean... I appreciate the concern massively. <3 <3 <3 But it's the middle of a pandemic and I've felt like this (to this extent) for all of a day, so... :)

My *general* mh is pretty good given the city's shut down! :) <3

@balinares Oh! Since you were kind enough to ask in the first place, I should give you an encouraging update -- the reasons I did not pursue a therapist before were mostly related to health insurance nonsense. (America, I know, right?)

But my employer's open enrollment period starts in a couple of weeks, and there's at least a _chance_ I can make all these bureaucratic problems go away just by switching to a better, hopefully also cheaper, plan. No guarantee until they send us this year's plan documents, but there's a chance!

Thanks again for caring, hun. <3 I do owe you a good live chat in whatever medium, sometime soon.

@zebratron2084 Mrah, this is good news! Thank you for letting me know. ❤️ A chat would be lovely, but you gotta promise not to overspend spoons over it, okay? Also none of this foolishness about owing anything. No obligations here, only overtures, okay? ❤️
