Shen Yuan getting transported into pidw isn't "the system punishing him for being a lazy internet hater," but instead representative of "step 1 of the creative process: getting so mad at something you decide to go write your own fucking book" in this essay I will

IAN GALLAGHER + his journey with bipolar disorder

╰┈➤ “At times, being bipolar can be an all-consuming challenge, requiring a lot of stamina and even more courage, so if you’re living with this illness and functioning at all, it’s something to be proud of, not ashamed of." - Carrie Fisher

its important to remember that long term chronic pain rewires your brain so even after you find a treatment plan that relieves some or all of that pain, you're still gonna have days where you wanna tear all your hair out.

it might feel like it's for no reason! but its cos your brain has new highways in it and traffic still goes thru there whether it makes sense or not

if you're having a bad day, just let your body have a break. Don't try to rationalize it cos the conclusion you might come to is 'wow even with treatment I'm useless' and that's always bad. If your brain and body are telling you "I Can't Do That Right Now", even if you can't figure out the reason, just listen

after finishing the game, i keep thinking about makoto and all the little things in persona 3 reload in hindsight and it HURTS.

Just. when you reach rank 10 and "you feel like you've made a lifelong friend." how yukari asks him to accompany her in meeting her mom. how mitsuru (if you date her) wants you to introduce yourself to the board sometime. how aigis found her life's purpose. all of the promises for the future. all of the promises he can never keep. he's so loved and cherished by the people around him and he loves them all back so strongly. he is the universe. they are his universe.

FMA 03 is the show of all time because it gets more difficult and traumatizing the older you get. I've watched it when I was 12 and obviously didn't understand how complex it was, but it burned itself into my brain anyway; I rewatched it when I was twenty something and somehow got re-traumatized despite it never leaving my memory. It can be depressing and mentally draining and nothing compares to the despair I feel rewatching it, but it's just something else in the best possible sense.

Hc after his mom died and before he started his trash act everything already tasted awful to og cale he just started intentionally kicking up a fuss abt it for his brat act

Because the mental health awareness is FUCKED in thee olden days and especially an 8 year old wouldnt know wtf is going on so if he were to hypothetically be rlly fucking depressed on the inside and he completely lost his appetite and everything just suddenly tasted bland or disgusting og cale hypothetically wouldnt know wtf is going on either

8 year old cale thinking “nothing tastes right, did the kitchen decide to spend less time on my meals now father is leaving me alone all the time?” And just accepting it until he has to use it as a strategy to become less likeable

I like to hc his trash act as being 80% made up and 20% letting himself act out bc hes genuinely upset tho he doesnt really know why he feels the way he does so this clicks into that hc really well

i think it's so interesting the way alicent's trauma manifests in her relationship with criston. honestly i think it's pretty insane to know someone for 20 years, have him serve you faithfully, share your bed with him and explicitly forbid him to call you by your name. but it makes sense for alicent to only be able to take a "relationship" in which she is fully in control after what she was put through with viserys. i think criston knows this and is willing to accept it as repayment of his debt to her. but from his pov she is now asking him to do something that would endanger her. after what aemond did to aegon, is it such a stretch to think he would off his own mother too if she's what stands between him and the throne that he so desperately desires? or that he would not go finish off aegon so the entire regency is skipped and the throne falls to him as heir? i do get his reasoning but i also get alicent's pain at being denied once again the right to choose her own fate. i loved the way that he could not bear to look at her at the council meeting. of course he couldn't. i hate knowing there's not going to be a happy ending and that neither them nor anyone around them will be okay
