·˚ ༘ ┊͙Them finding out that you were already in a relationship with one of their friends after he flirted with you !  ˊˎ

⤌H e a d c a n o n s !⤛

. . ⇢ 𝑭𝒕. Mitsuya Takashi, Chifuyu Matsuno, Manjiro Sano, Rindou Haitani and Ran Haitani ˎˊ˗

𝐌𝐢𝐭𝐬𝐮𝐲𝐚 𝐓𝐚𝐤𝐚𝐬𝐡𝐢

Mitsuya's calmness is almost envy-inducing, despite this, the boy is easily irritated, not being the type of guy who lets situations go unnoticed before his eyes.

Mitsuya would be totally jealous to see anyone flirting with you, but the jealousy definitely affected him when he discovered your past relationship with that friend of his, making him even more uncomfortable with those flirtations, despite this fact and all this feeling, Mitsuya knew the past remained in the past, making him ignore everything in a way when he calmed down.

"You have questionable tastes when choosing who you have a relationship with, I'm sorry to tell you that." He would say trying to pretend custom, Mitsuya would make sure his friend never flirted with you again.

𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐟𝐮𝐲𝐮 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐬𝐮𝐧𝐨

Chifuyu is sweet, he avoids showing any negative feelings, but when something bothers him, Matsuno doesn't mind being a little rude sometimes.

"I think the time for you to flirt with her is over, don't you think?" He would say to his friend in front of him in a calm and at the same time threatening tone, Chifuyu became even more jealous when he found out about the relationship left in the past, making a point of making the fact that he had lost you very clear.

He wouldn't be disappointed in you or anything like that, Chifuyu knew how to leave the past in its place, besides, it wasn't a friendship he took so seriously, ending up giving preference to you and ignoring the whole situation to avoid totally unnecessary discussions.

𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐣𝐢𝐫𝐨 𝐒𝐚𝐧𝐨

As much as it may not seem like it, Manjiro can be somewhat possessive and jealous when it suits him, seeing someone flirting with you made him deeply irritated, even more so when it was someone he was close to.

After discovering through an affair that you and that friend of his had already had a relationship in the past, Manjiro immediately became jealous.

"Um? You and him? Ewww!" He would say, dissatisfied with the situation, Manjiro didn't seem to be serious, but he was somewhat angry about this past.

"Good thing you're mine now, aren't you? Say, you're just mine." Manjiro would make you say what he wanted until he was satisfied with your speech.

𝐑𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐨𝐮 𝐇𝐚𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐢

"Have you already been with him? You have a bit of questionable personal taste, don't you? I believe I'm the only exception." Rindou would say ironically about such a discovery, he would be jealous, however, he would just pretend to be accustomed, certainly using this fact to bother you from time to time with unfunny jokes.

He would be uncomfortable seeing you together after finding out about your past and he would also be impatient when he heard anyone flirting with you.

Rindou wouldn't mind to a certain extent, as he always made a point of showing everyone who you belong to, despite being the type who doesn't give a shit, the younger Haitani doesn't mind treating certain matters seriously, for that reason , he would not allow any more advances from his friend.

𝐑𝐚𝐧 𝐇𝐚𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐢

Ran is certainly not the type of guy who hides his jealousy when something really bothers him, despite not seeming to care about what happens around him, Haitani pays attention to every behavior and actions of the people who are by his side.

He would be uncomfortable seeing his friend flirting with you and would become even more jealous when he found out that you had been in a relationship in the past.

"First of all, ew! What did you see in this guy? I know he's my "friend" but I'm sure I'm much better." Ran would say mockingly, somewhat disbelieving the fact that you had already had a relationship with that person.

Ran would no longer allow flirting or anything like that, now, you belonged only to him and he made a point of making that very clear, he didn't care that much about his friendships, for that reason, in a way, Ran would give you priority.

post/734733274896809984/do-you-ever-worry-your-own-writing-might-come-off that makes sense. i was asking because i'm afraid of accidentally writing misogyny myself and i kind of admire what you do

Hmm... I wish I had better advice to give you on this front, but honestly, the only thing I can tell you is to consider the perspective of your female characters.

Women are people. They have thoughts and feelings of their own, so like... just let them have their own arcs. A lot of the worst misogyny in WC comes from the way that the writers just don't care about their girls (or, in the case of tall shadow, actually get undermined and forced to rewrite entire chapters), so they're not curious about their lives, or WHY they feel the way they do or what they want, or any direction for their character arcs.

Turtle Tail as an example. She'll often just end up feeling whatever Gray Wing's plot demands. She's gotta leave when Storm dumps him to make him feel lonely. She shows up again to love him in the next book. Lets her best friend Bumble get dragged back to Tom the Wifebeater, but is sad enough about her death to be "unreasonably angry" with Clear Sky, and then calms down and accept Gray Wing is right all along.

And then she dies, so he can have his very own fridge wife.

In this way, Turtle Tail's just being used to tell Gray Wing's story. They're not interested in why she would turn on Bumble, or god forbid any lingering negative feelings for how she didn't help her, or even resentment towards Clear Sky for killing her or Gray Wing for jumping to his defense. She isn't really going through her own character arc.

She does have personality traits of her own, don't misunderstand my criticism, but as a character she revolves around Gray Wing.

So, zoom out every now and then, and just ask yourself; "Whose story is being told by what I wrote? Do my female characters have goals, wants, and agency, or are they just supporting men? How do their choices impact the narrative?"

But that's already kinda assuming that you already have characters like Turtle Tail who DO have personalities and potential of their own. Here's some super simple and practical advice that helped me;

Tally the genders in your cast. How many are boys, how many are girls, how many are others?

And take stock of how many of those characters are just in the supporting cast, and compare that to the amount you have in the main cast.

If you have a significant imbalance, ESPECIALLY in the main cast, fire the Woman Beam.

It's a really simple trick to just write a male character, and then change its gender while keeping it the same. I promise women are really not fundamentally different from men lmao. You can consider how your in-universe gender roles affect them later, if you'd like, but when you're just starting to wean yourself off a "boy bias" this trick works like a charm.

Also you're not allowed to change the body type of any girl you Woman Beam because I said so. PLEASE allow your girls to have muscles, or be fat, or be old, or have lots of scars. Do NOT do what a cowardly Triple A studio does, where the women all have the same cute or sexy face and curvy body while they're standing next to dwarves, robots, and a gorilla.

Or this shit,

If you do this I will GET you. If you're ever possessed by the dark urge, you will see my face appear in the clouds like Mufasa himself to guide you away from the path of evil.

Anyway, you get better at just making characters girls to begin with as time goes on and you practice it. It's really not as big of a deal as your brain might think it is.

Take a legitimate interest in female characters and try not to disproportionately hit them with parental/romance plots as opposed to the male cast, and you'll be fine. Don't think of them as "SPECIAL WOMEN CHARACTERS" just make a character and then let her be a girl, occasionally checking your tally and doing some critical thinking about their use in the story.

(Also remember I'm not a professional or anything, I'm just trying to give advice)

[chunibyo-x-sorcerer]

Hey KIsho, do you have any favorite missions you liked doing with your friends?

@the-silver-peahen-residence "Yes! If I have to pick some, it would be the craziest ones that I enjoy which I couldn't believe that we managed to get out of there." He laughs, "Although...Megumi bonks me over the head but there are times that he told me that I did a good job."

"There is one where we have to exorcise a curse at a karaoke establishment and I had a great plan for that!" Daichi smiles as he goes to tell the story.

----- The Karaoke Mission ---

"Daichi...you're going to do what now?" Megumi asked, hoping he misheard.

"I said we're going to challenge the curse to karaoke.."

The other three students, Nobara, Yuria, and Yuji sweatdropped out of the plans that Daichi can come up with it. This one gotta be the craziest one. They wonder if it will top the Hostess Curse Mission. Megumi twitched an eye and says, "Daichi...no..." "Daichi yes!" Daichi grins.

"Daichi! That is the dumbest plan I ever heard of!! And what makes you think the curse is going take up on our challenge?! its' a curse!" Megumi argued, crossing his arms. "Because I know.it will work! The curse has been evading us and try to do sneak attacks using electronics like TVs, microphone and control pads. I bet it has been listening to other people singing and it feels angry being left out. After all singing is a way to vent out emotions especially negative emotions that might give a birth to this sprit! This spirit has sound abilities and travels through electronics! That's the kind of cursed spirit he is!" "What kind of nonsense are you theorizing?! Where did you even come up with that?!" Megumi asked as he can't believe what's he hearing.

"Come on! Let's try it!"

----- "After convincing and failing to get that curse, Megumi let me to try out my plan and it worked! My singing prompt that curse out of hiding and wants to challenge me on his own stage!" Daichi said. "I bet he was scared of it or rather amazed by it. The curse can't help but take on my challenge!" Little does Daichi know...that's not really what happened.

-----

When Daichi sings on the stage, that is his grand delusion, his singing is well... "Oh Merciful Buddha! Tell him to stop! He's KILLING THE SONG!" Sukuna shouted from Yuji's cheek as he can't take it anymore. He even tells Yuji, his vessel to take over and do something!

"YOU'RE MY...SPECIAL! YAH, YAH, YAH, YAH! YOU'RE MY SPECIAL!"

Daichi's singing is straight-up god-awful. Yuria stared in surprise, covering her mouth. Nobara is cringing but couldn't help herself to record this with her phone. Megumi is appalled and Yuji's jaw drops. The curse on the other hand is now covering its ears with his eyes wincing after the curse went first. Even the curse is affected by Daichi's singing. It's so bad, the curse looks ready to kill itself. However...Sukuna Ryomen; as a man from the Heian Era that is known as Golden Era of Jujutsu, it's also the golden age for the emergence of classical arts such as poetry, literature, arts, and music. Sukuna is a sorcerer...a scholar, and a genius with a great appreciation for the arts. The phoenix's singing is considered a travesty to his ears. Its' so bad that he is telling Yuji to go up there and take over.

"BRAT! Take over! Take that microphone away from him! YOU SING! I can't take this anymore!" "But..uh...Daichi's plan is working-" Itadori begins. "Not when his singing is awful. Out of everyone here, you're good at singing than everyone else!" Sukuna retorted. It's one of the rare instances that Sukuna compliments Yuji. Plus, it's the truth. He heard Yuji sing to himself when he's showering.

"But uh..."

"S-SPEZICAL! I AM YOUR SPEZICAL!"

"Itadori Yuji! SING OR SO GOD HELP ME!" Sukuna shouted.

"Okay, okay, okay! I go sing, jeez!" Yuji said, going up to the stage to join Daichi and opt to tag in so he can take the microphone away and sing.

-----

"Although! Yuji wants to tag in so why not?! I mean I was tired from all that singing and he had fun up there and he beat the curse at its own game, It completely exorcises itself after losing to Yuji! Who knew Yuji is a great singer." Daichi grins.

Yuji chuckles a little nervously, blushing a little, "Aww...thanks, man." Megumi nods and says, "I think you should stick to whistling...Kisho." Megumi said.

"Yeah. Whistling tunes is my strong suit!" Kisho grins, making Megumi sighs. "Oh and there's another mission where we take down a curse user who was scaring people away so we made a trap. Although it didn't go so well...but we managed to take it down."

"You mean the one where we had to do uh....what is it called?"

"Home Alone it? Or no...do that Scooby Doo booby traps!" Yuji snapped his fingers.

"Yes! Exactly like that!" Kisho smiles as he is impressed with himself as Eito lets out a tweet. "That's a story for another time though!"

[one-abuse-survivor]

Hi can you be mad at someone whos going through a hard time? My dad is a jerk to my mum a lot, and shes already gone through a lot in life, like a lot a lot, but shes also abused me and can get really mad with me and just be mean. its confusing inside cos its like i dont like her, but i just feel so much guilt for that because she has no one left and the one guy she loves is a jerk and idk it just makes my stomach flip lol. today she bought us all popeyes, cost a lot too haha, but my dad flat out refused to try it. was so mad at my mum for buying him chicken cos he apparently suddenly hates it, and got really mad at my mum. she ate in the kitchen away from him, then made him some noodles. his response? 'what are you doing, why did you make me them??' like very ungratefully, its hard tk convey tone over text haha. like idk he just demands everything of her all the time, never does anything for himself never mind anyone else. it makes me so mad. and feel so guilty. cos i feel like i cant be mad at mum, i mean its not fair for her im the only one whos nice to her idk how long she has left and i just want her to have a happy life yk? but sometimes she makes me super mad lol. is that allowed? can both feelings exist? i dont know how to properly fix it in my head

Hey, nonnie. The short answer is: yes, you can be mad at someone who's going through a hard time. And, yes, you can be affected and traumatised by a person's abuse even if that person is also going through abuse. Both things can coexist. And, even in scenarios that don't involve abuse, if someone causes harm to another person, that harm doesn't magically disappear because the person who caused it was struggling. Their struggle may explain the harm, but it doesn't justify or nullify it.

I really relate to the fears you express in this ask, because when I was going through abuse, my abusive mother was also going through hell. She wasn't being abused, but she was really struggling, and she repeatedly reminded me I was the only person who still cared about her and supported her. So, for a long time, I also felt extremely guilty for hating her for abusing me. She made me feel like she deserved my support more than I deserved to want to be safe from her. And I felt like any negative emotion I had toward her was selfish and extremely unfair.

But that was the abuse talking, and the truth is that no one, no matter how much they are suffering, is entitled to abuse someone else without consequence. And, as a victim, you are always, always allowed to put your safety first. Even if you're (either supposedly or literally) the only person in your abuser's life who is still kind or supportive towards them, you are allowed to want to stop being that person for them. You're allowed to take any and every step you can to seek safety. And you're definitely allowed to be angry at your abuser for hurting you.

It's okay if this is hard to believe right now. But I hope it helps to hear that the guilt and uncertainty do decrease during recovery, once you've given yourself space and time away from your abuser. It won't always feel like you're horrible and selfish for being angry she hurt you.

I can't remember where, but I once heard someone say that your anger is the part of you that knows you never deserved to be hurt; your anger is the part of you that loves you. That really stuck with me. And, when I started therapy to recover from my abuse, one of the first things I remember my therapist telling me was that once you start feeling anger without guilt whenever someone wrongs you, that's a sign you're getting better. Because anger is the appropriate reaction to being mistreated. Guilt, in this case, is a trauma response.

To reinstate: your mum is going through abuse, and you are allowed to be furious at her for abusing you in turn. They can coexist.

Hope some of this helps to hear. Sending you a big virtual hug ❤️

[what-if-nct]

Yo its been such a long time I'm sorry. How's everything going? Are you doing well? Are you feeling well? World've better treated you well. I wanna throw a fit when not. I totally love your insta its too cute!!! Also your clothing style, you actually dare to go out in that? I cant believe it I wish I was brave enough to wear cute clothes but ppl are assholes in my surroundings so I probably wouldn't dare to- I love your style so so so SOOO much.

I mightve fallen back in a (not too severe) Mark Lee obsession and a (very severe) tgcf obsession. Also scumvillains self saving system, I bought volume one only my mom read the backside of it, which is about someone being a half demon and she tells me not to buy it anymore. I'm probably still gonna buy it because I wanna read the happy endingggg (same for tgcf but the next volume i should buy has a very sus cover so I have to hide it from everyone XD)

I have Mark Lee hanging up my wall and once in a while, I stand there and take a selfie with Mork. Its kinda tradition for me now.

Mannn i wish I had stuff to sayyy TT anyways 🥋 anon actually deserves the world so wtf is going on like actually. He didnt do anything wrong right then why is all going on and also why can't people see? I get so fucking angry and upset whenever I see ppl making fun of mental health and when i hear abt how people treat him, and I'm not even the person it happens to!! Like why must world be so unfair, like God may take all the happiness I have and give it to him. Please

That turned a little deep i'm sorry. Some people would just need to know (also 🥋 yeah ily amd ill never stop saying it) (i'm still gonna start a fanclub for him)

-sneeze

(Ps theres a character from tgcf who is canonically a dilf, and kinda turned into the god of coitus and hes scared of women) (hes my fav I love him so much) (his title Ju Yang meaning perfect sun was once misspelled as Ju Yang meaning tremendous masculinity and boom. Ppl started praying to him for sex and kids) (sorry i love that dude too much)

Hiii! And I'm doing fine and I'll stay fine as long as I stay away from people once the pms kicks in I think that's been my problem the past few months. Gotta seclude self during the moon time. And thank youuuu, you're so sweet and I do go out dressed like that. I really don't notice people when I'm out, so I never think twice about it until a creepy man says creepy things like please don't look at me. Only women and guys who look like Timothy Chalatmet and Heir Of Atticus are allowed to perceive me. But I rarely hear anything negative. But seeing my reflection in store windows and hearing girls yell they love my outfit is all that matters. Oh a girl who worked at the grocery store told me she liked my outfit and when I pulled out my card my Jeongin photocard was in my wallet and she asked if I liked kpop I wish I could've said more to her she was so cute but I was shy. So it's worth it to dress however you want cause for every person who has something mean to say there's 10 people with something nice to say. Also how you think you look and how it makes you feel is the most important part. I suggest you at least once to wear a really cute outfit just on a normal day.

I don't know what has gotten into mark lately but I totally understand falling back into it. He's at full power right now. Don't look directly at him cause he's collecting people left and right. Hes still like my boyfriend's kid brother so he doesn't affect me. But I definitely see it, his power. But that is so cute you take a selfie with your picture of mark. I kiss my pictures of Hyunjin or Chan before I leave cause they're right by the door. Their great traditions to have.

I've never heard of tgcf but it sounds like really cool, and yeah it sucks that his mental health is being disregarded it's not okay and he deserves so much better.

[salsa-and-light]

"listen, i was going to properly reply to this by saying that I was the very same hypersexual, porn obsessed 13 y.o. kid"

So you're argument is that you were atypical? And that porn is the reason why?

Why did you think that you were the exception?

Or are you saying that you were normal and it's not weird for teenagers to think about sex?

If that's the case, why did you say that it was?

"i was talking about in the screenshot and how pushing this idea that hypersexuality is ok is harming all demographics"

Define hyper-sexual? What amount of sexuality do you think is appropriate? What do you personally think is the norm?

Because in my experience, any sexuality at all is considered hypersexual, by many people.

Especially if you're in in circles which are Christian, conservative or rural.

"but then i TRIED to make sense out of the "if pornography has any effects-" and how you still weirdly defend porn even after throwing buzzwords like "harm" and "exploitation" you clearly don't believe in and i gave up."

I don't want you to feel ashamed of this, but for the sake of clarity I need you to know that you've completely misunderstood me.

I was not making a defense of porn, I was stating the tested fact that people are having sex less often and later in life. If pornography were truly linked to hypersexuality, I would expect that as the availability of pornography has increased(with the rise of the internet) so would rates of hypersexuality or sexuality in general, but that hasn't happened.

So either a) porn has no observable effect, b) it's effect is limited or negated by extenuating factors or c) its effect is reduces sex the amount of sex people are having.

That could be broken down into more nuance of course, but that was my point; porn doesn’t seem to be affecting us like you said.

And you read how I was concerned about the possibility of harm and exploitation in regular media, why would I express concern about exploitation in regular media but believe that porn has no risk? That doesn't make sense.

"you clearly had to exaggerate what i meant."

I didn't exaggerate, you said that people who thought about sex 20 times in a day at the age of 14 were weird.

That's a pretty extreme claim, especially from someone who's admitted to watching porn at the same age.

You already knew that teenagers think about sex, so why did you say it was weird? That seems accusatory, and hypocritical

""you people are mad 🥺🥺" no, i simply lived it and i'm still paying for it right now."

Not mad as in angry, mad as insane.

You were saying something that doesn't seem to be true. And now you've said that you were also like that at that age; so I'm very confused about why you think something that happens regularly, including to you, is abnormal and wrong.

But since you brought it up, I'd be very curious to here how you're.. paying for it.

What are the negative consequences?

"but alright, ew sex!11!!!"

I can't tell if this is meant to be sincere or sarcastic, but if it's sincere I think you already know that you're being sex negative; which has its own harm.

"👍🏻 have a nice day to you and your alarming opinion that sex = porn ig"

I never said that.

In fact I specifically said that sex didn't have to be pornographic.

"...there's plenty of ways to include sex in fiction without making nudity a requirement for young actors."

I feel like you're arguing with your misunderstanding of me.

[tallulah477]

i want to ask you something how do you stop being a people pleaser i don't know if I am one, but I've given things up for other people and did stuff to make my own siblings like me more and i just tried to be a good and nice person all my life and its just hard to break any cycles at all because that's what they expect from me now to be nice and sweet for the rest of my life

CW:// My thoughts about being a people pleaser and talk of depression, anxiety, trauma, insecurity, and general mental and physical health

I don't really know if you can ever really stop being a people pleaser 100%. I think it comes from a lack of met needs which can cause a lot of insecurity, anxiety, and trauma - and the need to constantly seek validation and approval from others or avoid conflict at all cost by adjusting your behavior (even if it comes at the cost of your wellbeing) is the result.

Being a good person and helping others when they need it isn't a bad thing, but when it negatively affects your health or mindset because your putting that person's needs above your own and completely disregarding what you need and what's best for you - that's being a people pleaser.

You have a hard time saying 'no' because, if you do, then other people might think you're selfish. You're constantly seeking approval from other people because you can't convince yourself that you're worthy enough of love unless you're being useful to someone else.

Basically, you value everyone else's time, opinion, and health more than your own because you feel like you can't trust yourself.

When I was growing up, I was the super sweet and kind "innocent" friend who could do no wrong. I never caused trouble, I could be trusted - was always a "yes, I can" "of course, I can" "no problem at all" type of person. I was terrified of disappointing anyone and always felt better with myself if I could just put a smile on someone's face for a second. But through the years and well into my adulthood, it turned into a lot and I sacrificed a lot of my mental, emotional, and physical health because of this.

Ultimately, my "ah-ha" moment came from anger which is probs not the best way it could have happened, but at least it did 🤷🏻‍♀️. It was a situation where I tried so hard to help a family member and make them happy, but nothing was good enough for them. Nothing I did was good enough, no matter how much I helped I always got told that "no one helps me cause no one cares" - I could fix any problem, do any task, and it still wasn't good enough. I had some really awesome friends at the time telling me little tidbits about what they learned in therapy and honestly idk how it happened but I just remember getting so angry at everything and looking at myself and hating who I was and finally having the thought "I deserve better".

Once I started really looking at things and dissecting my relationships and how certain people made me feel, a lot of stuff started clicking and I realized that I didn't have a lot of boundaries which are sooo important.

Boundaries are gonna be your new best friend.

Some boundaries can look like:

Saying “no” to things that drain you or don’t align with your values or best interests

Stop saying “sorry”. You don’t owe anyone an apology for doing what’s best for you and you don’t have to explain yourself to anyone.

Advocate for yourself. Don’t just agree with someone else. If you have a different opinion and it can be discussed respectfully, then do it. Sometimes it's going to be really uncomfortable, but it will get easier, I promise. If you’re dealing with a narcissist though or someone with similar tendencies, then honestly just get out of there cause they can’t be reasoned with.

Making time to care for yourself. Get enough sleep (I suck at this one 😩), do things to keep yourself healthy but also make the time to do the things that YOU enjoy. I find that saying affirmations help me a lot.

And sometimes it can be really hard, because its probably mostly family and friends that are getting this from you (jobs are also a super common hub for taking advantage of people pleasers) - and sometimes you see a loved one struggling with their own stuff and asking for your help and you want to help them, but helping them just drains you, especially if you suffer from depression or anxiety. So when you start enforcing your boundaries, you’re probably going to be told that you’re selfish, or mean, or have an attitude - but that’s not the case. Taking care of yourself is your first priority always.

I have no idea if this was helpful or not. But I hope it was! 🧡

[truestthoughts]

Be Kind.

Hey, Lovies.

I am here to allow my thoughts to finally be heard.

As someone who struggles with mental health, just like everyone else who are - we have our good days & bad days, but honestly in most cases, like mine for example; my good days only look good because I have taught myself over the years how to make a bad day look like a good day. How to smile & help others while i'm dying inside. I have helped so many people all the while my world was crashing down. I have dropped everything for everyone. No matter how bad I was feeling or whatever I was going through, I have always managed to put my own problems/emotions to the side to be able to help everyone else...why? because, my thoughts are 'no matter how badly I'm struggling to keep myself happy, I would rather see everyone else around me happier.' I've always been so selfish when it came to my own happiness & own health, I have always wanted more for others but not for myself. I've seen so many people struggling, but I've never been the one to just ignore them. I use my own experiences to help others & when they find out what I've gone through, they get a better understanding of why I am the way I am & even more shocked at the fact that with everything I went through, I am still here today & helping others instead of my own healing.

I have said this so many times before, that I would never ever wish what I have gone through or going through on anyone, not even my worst enemy.

I struggle with putting myself first & with that, comes disappointment & a lot of it. I begin to hate myself & question my own self worth, not because I regret helping anyone - its because, when I finally build up the courage to ask for help (which a lot of people who struggle with mental health...this is the hardest thing to do) NOT ONE PERSON is ever there or they don't know how to be helpful. Like I said, I don't regret helping others, I just regret thinking that they would also help me when i'm in my time of need. I blame myself for expecting the same LOVE I give out to others to be given back to me in my time of need. But, I have learned that not everyone is the same & not everyone gives out the same love we do. We love so hard that little things affect us more than the next person. We hear one small thing or see one little thing & we easily become triggered, we become so angry & we start to think negatively of ourselves. But, do the people understand? Do they know what's going on in your head or what you're going through? No, more than likely they'll think that were just blowing things out of proportion but, they don't really know what's going on deeply. We struggle to ask for help because we automatically assume that no one will be able to understand or help us. Whenever we did ask for any help from people whom we thought could help & we thought we could trust; either we are judged, they made/make us feel worst than what we already were & last but not least - we become unheard, a burden, a bother or left asking more about our own worth.

There aren't much people anyone can really run to, even parents sometimes can't help or make you feel worst. We don't feel free to open up to anyone, all they can do is tell you things that they think you wanna hear, but that's not always the answer. As for me, I like to help people & I am so straight forward to them, i'd rather be honest & hurt them rather than make them happy with lies or feed them with words that they wanna hear. As for me, I have tried pills & seeing therapists. But, I have never completed any of those treatments. For one, I never wanted to rely on pills/medications & I have never depended on therapists either.

This is my opinion on those things, people may have other opinions on it & will definitely not agree with me, but this is just my own. It may help or it may not, I am not forcing anyone to do things the way I do. Anyways, with pills - no matter how much different ones I've tried, I never liked the way it made me feel & my thoughts honestly were worst. All the pills did to me was, it helped me to sleep - but, that's just a temporary fix for a semi-permanent problem. I woke up feeling worst than I did before going to bed. There were days of wanting to do worst. So, I stopped it. I began to tell myself that, its mind over matter. It helped a little, it was tough - but, I kept fighting the urge to reach for the pills. It didn't happen over night...matter fact it took me a while, a long while to believe that I can do it without needing pills. I did it, but of course like every other person - I ended up being back on the pills under worst circumstances, but I was able to get off of it again. (more in a different blog)

Next, is therapy. Again, this is my own opinion.

My thing with therapy is, it works for some & it doesn't for others. Which is fine, a lot of people are ashamed to say that they see therapists because they feel people will look at them like they're crazy or something is wrong with them...but, to some - therapy is their only way out & it helps them out a lot. I am a very open person & I really didn't mind telling people that I was in therapy & I just didn't mind what others were saying because I was doing something for myself to get better. That's all that mattered to me during that time. & although it helped other people, it wasn't for me. I came to a realization that it wasn't for me when one therapy session (this was an over the phone session during COVID) I felt just like an assignment or a study. In the beginning of my session that day, my therapists had a medical student with her during that time to observe & all that, which is completely understandable. & I didn't mind it, but what I really didnt appreciate was that - my own therapists told me that she would turn the session over to the med student. In that moment, I just didn't feel comfortable anymore. First of all, I was still trying to get comfortable talking to my therapist & then, that happened. After the call, I had to send an email to that therapist. It may not have been the right thing to do, but it felt right to me. I said to her this...

I am grateful for your time & your efforts you've put in during my time of need. However, I will not be continuing my sessions effective immediately. If you don't mind me asking, have you ever gone through what I have? or are you just taking what you learned from school to help? I understand you worked hard at school to get educated on helping others who've gone through experiences such as this or even worst. However, who are you to be giving me help on something you've never experienced before? During our few fast sessions, all I heard was positive things being told to me about how nothing was my fault or I am worthy, etc. But, those are things that we wanna hear, not what WE NEED to hear. at this point, you're just building me up with words of encouragement which is very helpful - but, you're not really getting deeper into it as to what may have caused everything. I appreciate all the good words you'd say about me, but during our times - all I heard was that & nothing about anything else. It was just telling me I'm strong & I'm worthy. Its all mind games, you're feeding me with words from what you learned in school, but you've never told me what my mistakes were & what I need to do to believe that i'm worthy & strong. You never gave me advice on how I was in the wrong & to correct my wrongs.

That's the basic of the email, but I cut my sessions - was I in the wrong for that? Maybe. But, did I do the right thing by allowing myself to express my thoughts/feelings? I believe so. Since, then I have never seen a therapist - instead I started to self heal. I isolated myself a lot & I did cut off a lot of toxic people from my life & it definitely did help. I took it a day at a time, i struggled for sure - but, the reward of it all is that I was doing it on my own & not dependent on medications or a therapy. I still am going through it til this day, but over time - I found many different ways to get through the tough days. Sometimes it works & most days it doesn't, but as long as you keep trying & find different ways to help you - that's what makes you strong. You keep fighting & trying to fight the bad days.

Its okay to isolate yourself from the world, because we do live in a cruel world now. The expectations from society that we have to be perfect all the time, the hate/critics out there who will bring you down. Social media has become such a BIG INFLUENCE on everyone now days that we all wanna be just like those content creators, but, what we have to remember is that - on social media, people only post what they want to & only the positive things, but in reality behind the scenes -- we don't know what really goes on. That's why we should always BE KIND, whether it be online or in reality life. We don't know what type of struggle anyone is going through. That person hating could be possibly going through something & is just projecting their own problems/insecurities on you because they don't know how else to deal with their issues. When you're faced with someone like that, don't react/retaliate by giving them a taste of their own medicine, instead - offer a helping hand & let them know that its okay to have bad days because there are brighter days ahead. Let it be known that they are not alone & that you are there if ever they need help. Don't force them open up, because that'll put too much pressure on them which will push them away more. Instead, just let them know that when they are ready to talk about it, you'll be there to listen.

YOU ARE NOT ALONE. REACH OUT, whenever you're ready.

Thank you, LOVIES.

Keep your heads up. Stay positive, ALWAYS. You are loved. You are worthy & deserving of it all, PLUS MORE.

I love you all <3

Walks up to her door knocking as he waited, upon her answer he went straight to the point. "Mich.. we need to talk. Right now if you're not busy with anything."

Motioning towards her living room, hesitate for a moment before sitting on the couch and facing the red head. Letting out a sigh before saying what he needed to say.

"About what happened the other day.. I don't appreciate your approach towards me, hitting me like that. It doesn't get the point across at all, if anything it put me into a shock where your words didn't really register until after it passed.. I understand I upset you, my constant downplay on emotions it angered you to that point. My intention was never that, to upset you, rather how I viewed things and its hard to explain why.. I apologize for it, I'm sorry and I won't bring it up again, but.. Don't you ever hit me like that again."

His tone calm, serious but never raising. Wanted a conversation, to really talk to her.

"You had your reasons, you were angry, I get it.. but it has the opposite affect from what you think. I get enough of being hit by others, I don't need it from you, not you. You want to talk to me about something I did that upset or even bothered you.. yell, get angry, go off, sit and talk to me. Anything is fine but don't hit me again."

Leaning back, he took a deep breath in then out slowly.

"I want to at least tell you why.. Why I believe what I believe.. that you don't agree with.. Upset you when I never wanted that.. Maybe It was a pathetic way to try and get you to understand but.. How could you know when you don't know... When I don't say why. It's difficult to explain.. It's not easy."

Heavy eyes gaze up at the man as she opens the door. Upon the sight of him, her head turns to the side as she lets out a heavy sigh. She knew this time would come.

Facing consequences for her actions.

Yippie...

"... C'mon in."

She steps out of the way, letting him walk in after she had listened to him explain how hurt he was. He was right, she shouldn't have hurt him like that, but she had simply snapped after his constant negative talk when she's trying to get her shit together. However... Look at her now. Does she honestly have any right being mad at him when she hasn't gotten a single thing in line in her life?

Christ...

"You're right. And I'm sorry. I'm sorry for slapping you across the face, it was stupid as hell and you didn't deserve it. There was no reason for it other than anger."

She stands in the living room, gesturing over to the couch - signaling him to sit down.

"But now it's time to talk. IJ isn't here, just me and you. So we gotta get to the bottom of this..."

"Help me understand."

What are mood swings? Instantly understand 5 causes

Varies in the mood:

Have you ever had moments of satisfaction followed by irritability? When you're having a good time, chirping and dancing around the house, and then you find yourself lying in bed thinking about your entire life.

Daredevil, there's no real significance to these feelings—they're just the product of your hormones. They are just mood fluctuations. Mood swings are defined as an abrupt or notable shift in one's emotional state. A person experiencing mood swings may go from an upbeat, enthusiastic condition to one of melancholy, irritation, or wrath in an instant. You can take advantage of these indications of mood swings when you experience them. What does a man's or woman's mood fluctuation mean? Five typical causes

While mood fluctuations are Frequently perceived as affecting women, they impact individuals of all sexes. Generally speaking, the biggest causes of mood swings are poor diet, lack of sleep, and substance misuse. Mood swings can affect anybody and everyone for the following reasons:

Bipolar illness:

Mental disease or a mood-related disorder (depression) are the causes of mood swings with highs and lows (manic or hypomanic). Bipolar MDD, also referred to as clinical depression, is a dangerous illness that can have a variety of effects on a person's life.

Having trouble sleeping:

Your body and brain are at rest from the outer world when you are sleeping. Just before bed is the ideal time for your body to recuperate. As a result, getting too little sleep frequently makes you agitated and unhappy. In other words, getting too little sleep might lead to irritability and a short fuse. Severe mood swings can result from sleep deprivation, which can cause mood changes. Studies show that individuals with sleep disorders have reduced pleasant moods and an increase in negative emotions (such as rage, irritation, impatience, and depression).

Bringing blood sugar down:

Low blood sugar may be the cause if you've ever felt like you're "hanging," which is when you're both hungry and irate. This is what happens to some people who go a long period without eating. If your blood sugar is low, you could feel confused, lonely, angry, or melancholy. You can even get the want to cry or yell.To feel better, you ought to eat something. The brain, which stores your emotions and thoughts, depends on glucose to function. If you don't give your brain enough energy, that is, if your blood sugar is low, your brain may become unhinged. Even though you can feel like everything is too much for you, this could be a medical symptom of hypoglycemia.

Underline:

Stress can arise at any time in life, be it at the office following work, at home following housework, or for any other reason. Extended periods of stress can lead to depressive, angry, or bitter sensations as well as mood swings and unpleasant thoughts. Once you shift your focus from the primary cause of your stress, you'll begin to feel better. Regular exercise has been shown to reduce stress.

Coffee: 

Some may be surprised to learn that even caffeine can make some people feel moody. Your mood swings may be caused by the coffee, soft drinks, and other drinks you drink. Because caffeine stimulates your neurological system, it may cause you to become more alert than usual. Regular consumption will cause your body to become accustomed to its effects. At this point, attempting to cut back on your consumption will likely make you feel depressed and moody. You might get agitated, restless, nervous, or weary. 

How can you control or manage mood swings?

Although it might be challenging to manage mood swings, there are things you can do to help them:

Establish a schedule: Make an effort to set up time for yourself, particularly for eating and

Concentrate on your present emotions:

Regular exercise Frequent exercise improves nearly every element of your health, including your emotional state. You might be firmer and more at ease since your muscles are loosened and relaxed.

Make time for sleep:

It's crucial to have a good night's sleep, and not getting enough sleep might have an impact on your mood. Adopt a well-rounded diet:

You can preserve your health and elevate your mood with a well-balanced diet.

Practice relaxation techniques such as yoga or meditation when you're feeling restless or agitated. It's easier said than done, so try not to overstress yourself. If you're unable to stop worrying, consider using music, friends, or other hobbies as ways to divert your attention.

Talk to it:

Speak with a trusted friend, relative, counsellor, or other individual. Some natural remedies for irritability and mood swings have been discussed above, along with tips for controlling mood swings naturally.

What are mood swings? Instatntly understand 5 causes

Mood swings :

Have you ever been satisfied one minute and cranky the next?

That moment when you're having fun, chirping and dancing around the house, and the next moment you're lying in bed contemplating your whole life.

Daredevil; These feelings are just a result of your hormones and have no real meaning. They are simply mood swings. A sudden or significant change in emotional state is called mood swings. When mood swings, a person can suddenly go from a state of cheerful enthusiasm to a state of depression, agitation, or anger. These are all signs of mood swings that can be used to your advantage as you experience them.

What do mood swings in men and women mean? 5 common reasons

Although mood swings are often thought to affect women, they affect people of all genders. In general, nutrition, sleep, and substance abuse are the main causes of mood swings. Anyone and everyone can experience mood swings for the following reasons:

Bipolar disease:

Mood swings with highs and lows (manic or hypomanic) and depression are caused by mental illness or a mood-related disorder (depression). Bipolar MDD, commonly known as clinical depression, is a serious medical condition that can affect a person's life in different ways.

Being sleep deprived:

When you sleep, your body and brain are at rest with the outside world. The best time for your body to recover is right before you go to bed. Therefore, when you do not get enough sleep, you often become irritable and depressed. That is, lack of sleep can make you irritable and short-tempered.

Lack of sleep can lead to severe mood swings, which can lead to mood swings. According to studies, people who are sleep deprived have increased negative moods (such as anger, irritability, impatience and melancholy) and decreased positive moods.

Lowering blood sugar:

If you've ever experienced the feeling of "hanging," which is when you're both hungry and angry, low blood sugar could be to blame. Some people experience this when they pass a long time between meals. You may feel angry, sad, lonely, or confused if your blood sugar is low. You may even feel the urge to scream or cry.

You should eat something to feel better. Glucose is necessary for the functioning of the brain, where your emotions and thoughts are stored. Your brain can go haywire if you don't supply your brain with energy, i.e. if your blood sugar is low. Even if you feel like everything is overwhelming you, it could be a physical sign of hypoglycemia or hypoglycemia.

Emphasize:

Every moment of life, whether at the office after work, at home after chores or for any other reason, can cause stress. Prolonged stress can cause mood swings, unpleasant thoughts, and feelings of sadness, anger, or bitterness. By turning your attention away from the main source of your stress, you'll start to feel better. Daily exercise is known to be a stress reliever.

Caffeine:

Knowing that even caffeine can cause mood swings in some people may come as a surprise to some. Coffee, soft drinks, and other beverages you consume can be the cause of your mood swings. Caffeine can make you more alert than usual because it stimulates your nervous system. Your body will get used to its effects if you eat it regularly. At this stage, trying to reduce your intake will make you feel tired, irritable, anxious or restless, for example, which will lead to mood swings and melancholy. 

How to manage/control mood swings?

Mood swings can be difficult to control, but you can take steps to ease them:

Set schedule: Try to make a schedule for yourself, especially when it comes to eating and sleeping.

Focus on your current feelings:

Daily exercise Regular exercise has many benefits for almost every aspect of your health, including mood. Your muscles are released and relaxed, allowing you to be firmer and more serene.

Get enough sleep: Getting a good night's sleep is important, and a lack of sleep can affect how you feel. Eat a balanced diet: A healthy, balanced diet can maintain your health and improve your mood.

Relaxation exercises: When you feel restless or irritable, practice relaxation techniques like yoga or meditation.

Don't stress too much: Easier said than done, so try to avoid stress. If you can't avoid feeling stressed, try distracting yourself with music, friends, or other activities.

Chat with it: Talk to a friend, family member, counselor, or other person you trust. How to naturally regulate mood swings has been mentioned above along with some natural treatments for irritability and mood swings.

That he lived through the Satanic Panic and yet still uses the argument of

"this fictional thing causes REAL LIFE HARM"

is kind of embarrassing tbh.

"DND causes satanism!" "Video games cause violence!" "Yaoi makes people gay!" "This niche area of fanfiction causes grooming!"

Like it's just a smokescreen to ignore the actual issues behind grooming and what would help stop it. Much like how "video games cause violence" ignored the terrible state of mental health help and how bullying works, so to does this do nothing for the actual issues at hand.

As for your tags:

(1) #bro people saying its a slippery slope to censoring everything#and that itll lead to censorship of everything like gay stuff in general

It's only a "slippery slope" argument when we haven't seen it happen.

A conservative Christian alt-right group called "Warriors For Innocence" once looked at a sited called Livejournal and got really angry about a lot of the people there. So they contacted LJ to say "hey, you have a lot of pedophilia on your site, here are the groups and users that are a problem".

So LJ deleted those groups.

....Except those groups turned out to be majority innocent. Like slash writing groups. And lolita fashion groups. And groups where rape and CSA victims could comfort each other. Many others besides.

So we know that flagrantly misusing "pedophilia" as a cudgel has had negative effects.

And that's not even going into everything else that's wrong with that argument.

(2) #my dude did you just admit you cant tell the difference between a gay person and a pedo? because thats what they imply wheb they say that

No. But we have eyes, and we can see that -for example - Republicans sure seem to like calling a lot of things "pedophilia" that they just don't like. Anything to do with gay couples, whatever boogeyman they decide "critical race theory" is, accurate history books...

So you could see why some people would have a problem with people like bogleech recklessly calling anyone who disagrees with him a pedophile.

....Especially when one of those people was trans (you know, one of the groups that gets called "pedo" just for existing) and they were discussing how censorship affects queer media.

Bogleech is actually doing what you're accusing everyone else of.

(3) #this is exactly what im saying i dont think people should just be able to look on the surface web for this stuff…….. like you shouldn't#you shouldbt be able to fucking google cp even if it's fiction???? why is this an issue???

Here's the problem - okay there's actually a few problems

First of all, as I've stated multiple times, there's no factually based connection to icky fanfic and, like... actual harm. This may shock you to hear, but there's effectively no difference between vanilla porn (used WAY MORE to groom people) and niche icky fanfic.

Additionally, you do realize that, by doing this, you're helping silence survivors, right? Because this means we can't talk or write about our trauma at ALL.

I've heard from people who wrote very serious and sincere fiction to do with CSA, but still had comments from people talking about the eroticism. There's an entire article that talks about how only certain kinds of survivors are allowed to write, and anything that isn't picture Perfect Victim is.... stoned in the town square.

It's this article, by the way. "Who Gets to Write About Sexual Abuse, and What Do We Let Them Say?" by Erin Spampinato on Electric Literature.

(4) #theres a difference between pokemon is secretly making kids satanists and hey normalizing child x adult relationships has had tangible#efftcs on people#LIKE MEEEEEE! :D#i really wish! people didnt act like child and adult was so hot! because i fucking did it as a kid because of that you fucking freaks

First of all, you have my sympathies, but.... You're not going to like to hear this, but your groomer would have used anything. If it wasn't that kind of fiction, they would have used something else (just plain vanilla porn has been cited as one of the most common things) or they would have TWISTED something else.

(Many other CSA survivors who've criticized bogleech have pointed out that his "solution" wouldn't have done anything for them, because their abusers just used their interests and fandoms, no matter how SFW and tame.)

So, yeah. What would have helped you - what will help plenty of other people if we can just push for it more instead of playing blame game on other CSA victims - is better sex education. Better internet education. Better education on the red flags of grooming.

Because it focuses on the method, not the unreliable and ever changing tool.

it fucking sucks bc i genuinely enjoy his creative content, awful hospital specifically is very good, but his weird insistence that Certain Immoral Art has a unique, direct effect on real actual life that other dark art lacks has just ruined it for me

Yeah, i was never a follower of his, anon, but it sucks he was ruined for you.

It's just weird how some of the people who should get how Satanic Panic this all is (horror people, furries) suddenly get blinders on. Oh well.

+ Can I request genshin men (childe, zhongli, xiao, diluc, and any other of your choice as toxic boyfriends plz? I'm a masochist like that + just toxic relationships, controlling, possessive yandere, mean doms etc + Not neccesarily nsfw, but if you want to add it I'll be happy with whatever!

note: i deviated from this request just a little bc it felt easier to write this way. hope you don't mind!

note 2: this doesn't contain any smut but i tagged it with dark content simply because of the nature.

childe.

childish.

he never takes anything seriously. if you're having a bad day, he takes any opportunity to "lighten the mood". he cracks jokes and ends up making a mockery of your pain. you can try all you want to explain to him what he's doing wrong but he really doesn't get it. he's just trying to make you feel better??? he just can't read a room.

self-centered.

additionally, if you try to call him out on the negative way he makes you feel, he turns it around to make it about him. he made you cry because he made a bad joke? well, why can't you see he was just joking. you're being dramatic and now he feels bad. he always figures out a way to make himself the victim, only thinking about himself.

zhongli.

controlling.

he's a god. despite the fact that he is playing human now, he still retains that need for control. this is especially true for money. if he thinks you shouldn't purchase something, he won't let you. if you do buy something he thinks is stupid, he makes sure you know and that you feel bad and silly for the purchase. he expects you to do everything he tells you to do, no matter how unreasonable it is. and he has very little tolerance for mistakes.

manipulative.

he is unintentionally manipulative. he doesn't realize he does it. additionally, he will gaslight you if you try and call him on it. he makes sure to tell you he thinks it's silly, the way you get all worked up over the things he says. if you don't like it, then why do you listen? he doesn't listen to everything you tell him, why can't you do the same? he doesn't understand the power difference between the two of you -- he is so obviously in charge, that it's almost impossible to not bend to his will.

xiao.

stubborn.

he's set in his ways. he has lived so long without worrying about others, he refuses to start now. he doesn't work on himself and chooses to live the way he does, no matter the effect on his loved ones. you knew what he was like going into the relationship, he expects you to always accept him. it's your fault if you expect more out of him than he can give. not that he would even try.

unaffectionate.

he doesn't see a need for affection. its such a human thing, something he doesn't need or understand. thinks it's annoying when you try to hold his hand or when you cuddle up to him in bed. if you wanted someone affectionate, then you picked the wrong one. and since he's so stubborn...he won't ever change.

diluc.

neglectful.

he can go long periods of time without so much as thinking of you. he lets you do what you want and doesn't really care. especially if he's preoccupied with his job or protecting the city. it gets to a point where you start to feel like he doesn't love you -- doesn't care about you. there's not much you can do about it, even if you sit him down to tell him how you feel, it just goes in one ear and out the other.

selfishly needy.

on the flip side, he expects you to be there and available whenever he does decide he wants you. and if you aren't, he gets upset and angry. it really isn't fair but he doesn't get that. he never understands it. after all, you begged for his attention for weeks and now you won't even make time for him? he doesn't understand just how hypocritical that is. he just expects you to be there when he wants you but doesn't care if he's not there when you want him.

kaeya.

condescending.

he does it at the most random times. you could be venting to him, in tears because you had a rough day and he'll break out "oh? you had a bad day? that sucks..." in the most infuriating, condescending tone that just makes you feel like he views you problems as silly in comparison to his. if you mess something up or get something wrong, he whips it out then too -- making sure you know he thinks you're stupid or beneath him.

unsympathetic.

in addition, he just really can't sympathize with your problems. either he doesn't care or he just doesn't get it. he refuses to understand either way. when you tell him about how you boss made you feel like shit, he just shrugs and asks what the big deal is. or if you're exhausted and near tears, he just shrugs it off and tells you that you're making a big deal out of nothing.
