does anyone else sometimes feel the need to distance urself from everything in this reality & cut all ties with anything that ever proved ur existence & just ~vibe~ as some sort of half-ghost?
#idk if thats a coping mechanism to deal with anxiety#or something linked to my fear to hurt everyone bc i have a genetic illness and might not be alive fifteen years from now#or if thats a dissociation thing#i feel like theyre all equally plausible#but either way#mental illness#dissociation#anxiety#depression#all that stuff#not sure its very healthy as it involves cutting myself off from loved ones#and my therapist says its Not Good#im tired#dont listen to me#or read ig

i have the next page of erasure laid out and a new tablet coming. gonna give my current one to a friend's kid that seemingly eats sketchbooks, hopefully that'll help lol. "I wanna support her but in this economy I'm ready to just buy a pack of shitty printer paper and call it a day."
#my therapist says leaving one foot in my homelessness/addiction even to access it for creative reasons isnt good for me#and thats why i procrastinate with my zadr au comic thing and she might be right#pros: it never caught on so i can pick it up and drop it whenever#cons: i like drawing it. its cathartic-- i just get mad gut pangs sometimes idk#erasure au#zadr#wip

Maladaptive daydreaming.
#daydreaming#maladaptive daydreaming#maladapting daydreaming disorder#maladaptive behaviors#maladaptive coping#dissociation#immersive daydreaming#dimond speaks#yeah so adding this to my list here lol#my therapist helped me realize i dissociate a LOT and the primary way i do it is through vivid daydreams#they usually happen at work but they also pop up if i'm having a bad day or... anytime really.#i've also come to the realization that i have at least one of these a day which is not good fgsjh#my therapist says they're not inherently bad especially since they do have a positive effect on my emotions (if its a good daydream)#but it's gotten to the point that it's affecting the way i work#and they can last for a LONG time too#i haven't timed them but i do know they've been over 30 minutes at work before#this is either due to ADHD autism PTSD or a mixture of the three lmao#weeeee#anyway. this post isn't really intended to be a vent post#it's more like a 'this is my experience' type post#it just kinda comes across as somewhat vent-y#but that was because i wanted to try and immerse the reader into what its like to have these daydreams#like mine look NOTHING like this but making it more generic would help others understand it#the void is the general dissociation from reality#then you emerge in the dream#i can feel things as if i'm there- the sun the wind and sometimes even physical touch#and i'll stay there until something snaps me out#strangely i can get my work done while i'm doing this- i just wont have any memory of doing so. it's like being on autopilot#anyway. I hope this post was helpful to someone out there#if you also maladaptive daydream YOU ARE NOT ALONE! it's valid and you're not 'faking' anything. it's a genuine trauma response.

I have not eaten anything today and I frankly don't have the motivation to make anything, or even care that I haven't had anything
#things are not good for me right now#like I'm crying again and the only reason I haven't texted my boss to say I'm not going to work tomorrow#is cause my anxiety is through the roof at the thought of having to communicate#and I'm kinda in a spiral about being a failure at work and do think its a matter of time until I'm fired#so i should probably get as many hours as I can#not that any of this even matters like I'm well aware all of my problems are trivial and yet here i am once again having a break down#and my therapist said it's not productive to tell myself to suck it up and stop being a baby but here we are#and the instinct is really strong

How on earth is it possible for my biggest Tumblr crush to think she's so unworthy of being loved 😮💨
I think sometimes people think I've got nothing going on because of my ability to crack jokes or be lighthearted, but that is simply not true lol, just the only armor I was given in this life. But there's a real person underneath there who's had a really fucking bad time on this planet and maybe people don't believe me, that's cool. Not here to convince you. My demons convince me enough as it is, day after day.
#if i have to show my hand#most people with childhoods as abusive as mine simply do not survive#when people ask me stuff like this i have to force myself to breathe through it and remind myself its enough that im still here#sometimes people who are severely traumatized just don't want to share it I'm sorry#and i am not seeking reassurance when i say i am awful unlovable stupid a dummy#simply echoing the words hurled at me as a goofy little kid who just wanted to show people magic tricks#i am never fishing for compliments here so if you think that's me im happy for you to unfollow lol its all good#asks#love talking about this shit (emails my therapist)#personal

They weren't lying, this psychological recovery journey got hands
#3rd month of taking antidepressants and knowing that There Is something majorly fucked up within me#i feel like im becoming normal bit by bit but also now my other problems become my aparent to me#i started to notice i have this childlike simplistic attitude towards wonder and relationships but also at the same time i understand the#severity of troubles around me on the level of burned out adult#but also it takes me from a week to several years to realize what people meant#and yet sometimes i get everything clearly#there are still ways to go#i still have to find a therapist#cuz psych diagnosed me with BPD; geberal anxiety disorder and ADHD and said i have autism signs that could explain the development of BPD#but all he can do is medical treatment which is not the kind you need for BPD and autism#im not saying you can treat autism but yeah he meant i need a psychotherapist for these instead of psychiatrist#i hope i can complete this mental health journey bcuz i feel like i finally got hit with all the weight of burnout i had all these years#i did some creative work in the august/early september but rn its all touching grass in real world and playing games#like i cook i help my family with chores i play fortnite i clean up my room i go out at 1am to look at the stars#all of my own volition without feeling like i need to push myself to do this#I'm scared that making art is not one of those things#i often have a thought that maybe art isnt really for me and in a perfect world i wouldnt do it#but then why am i so good at it#like...#petrotalk

i really wanted to try and write like, a thing explaining how i think steven universe future is one of the best portrayals (and my personal favorite) of mental illness in media, and how i think people misinterpreted it (me included at first, cause my experience over time has given me new perspectives) but i. AAA i literally dont even know if its necessary cause i dont know if people still think it was bad or a bad way to write steven (it wasnt!!) or like any of that, mostly cause. holy shit its just so obvious to me?
like i watch that show and i relate to him so much that i just understand it all and its so obvious to me and i dont know if other people find it. not obvious. like everything is right there in the text laid out i think
the main thing that i saw get misinterpreted when it aired was the second to last episode where steven turns into a fucking kaiju and everyone, again me included, thought that it felt rushed, but everytime i rewatch it i think... no it wasnt, actually. because we see it expecting a big fight or thinking it needs a whole lot to fix, but it doesnt. its not a fight, its someone having a mental breakdown and thinking theyre purely unlovable and evil, but being made to see that they are still lovable and arent evil even after all the bad theyve done, theyre loved unconditionally, and that other stuff mostly really doesnt matter (and hey, it can be fixed/dealt with later, its fine!)
its just my favorite show ever, specifically future! and i really wish other people would see what i see, but do i even need to try..? i didnt really write it very well anyway, but drafts exist for a reason. idk ive just been thinking about it a lot
TL;DR: i adore steven universe future and im wondering if anyone thinks its even necessary for it to be analyzed for people to maybe better understand it/do you think that there are enough people misunderstanding it that it needs a perspective to maybe help be more understood
#genuinely i relate so deeply to him in future#its such a comfort show to me when im having a bad time cause like#he goes through so much and does so much. but everyone still loves him and he gets a therapist and a happily ever after#and it gives me hope. yknow?#i just keep thinking about athena p saying she didnt like steven universe future and im like. GIRL YOUR OPINIONS ARE USUALLY GOOD WHAT#WHY NOT. WHAT IS THERE TO DISLIKE :[#steven universe#su#steven universe future#steven quartz universe#steven quartz demayo#su steven#steven universe steven#suf#my post#im mostly asking this cause it would be a lot of effort to finish it#ive got a first draft written but its very long#and im planning on turning it into a youtube video. not just posting a long ass essay on tumblr lol#so it would take me writing a second draft. maybe even more until im satisfied-#then id have to read it all out loud. and then make a drawing for the background video cause i#PHONE ISTG#cause thats just what i have in mind#then id have to edit it all sjfhsjf#its like. i want to. but im so demotivated about it. cause would it even matter#I MEANT FOR THE POLL TO BE LONGER I FORGOT TO CHANGE IT NOOOOO

this is extremely not normal but i just have never understood the concept of talking to myself. language is for communicating with other entities. I'm already me, i already know everything I want to say. it would be like trying to pour a glass of water into itself.
----
some fucking moron just wrote five pages basically ordering me to "do it anyway because it's good for you" so i will be turning off replies on this post that is just tagged #blog because it is a blog post about my own personal experience which i acknowledge in the very first five words is not typical.
i am genuinely glad the majority of people can verbalize thoughts as a life hack. I'm sincerely happy whenever anyone has tools to help themselves do things. my point was, "it's weird that i have tried this thing extensively and it doesnt function that way for me, oh well, everyone's brain is different i guess".
#this makes therapists upset#they want me to say things to myself which doesnt work because it's a closed loop#I've been a good sport about it its just not applicable to my situation sorry#however i understand this type of cognition is in the MINORITY and normal people experience themselves as an entity#i think thats cool#blog

i hope you don't make yourself change much from what you've already planned for jerejean because literally everything you've given us in unkindness is more than perfect. i get the feeling your take on them won't disappoint
Thank you, anon <3 Tbh I probably won't change anything. I just feel kinda Weird atm, but I'll get over it and ppl can react however they want
#anon#asks#i have a scene planned where betsy outright says she can't be jean's therapist bc she'd have to be licensed in the state where he lives RIP#and its been in my head for years#and i have legitimate/good reasons for having that scene#but now i'm like 'is it gonna sound mean to nora. is aftgtwt gonna take out a hit on my life'

i love my friends so much my connection with other ppl makes my life worth living. i love finding common ground and understanding with regular people and understanding im part of something bigger than ill ever truly comprehend, because human relationships (to me) are another plane of understanding and love, from short once in a lifetime interactions to lifelong friendships, because its about memories and how much of a wonderful scrapbook you can make of your experiences… im grateful for every second no matter how painful or scary because i know its my only shot at living which means so much to me because i wasnt always sure id make it… i was going to just put this in my notes app out of embarrassment for sincerity but everyone i interact with gives me this feeling and that includes you people on here. its really incredible
#not sure if this makes sense bc im super drunk but im just saying.#i love my close friends old friends new friends everybody i know because it feels so good to know people.#ive been so depressed lately but i never cross over because i truly love life. experiencing new or old art all the time.#meeting new people and feeling love for humanity#learning and feeling better about myself#loving the people around me#it really is worth it despite my pain.#and i hope i never have to go to the psych ward again#and i can learn to cope… depression is a disease i suffer from but not a death sentence#and i need to believe in myself and my abilities#ill be alright… if only i felt like this when i was sober :( lets go substance abuse#anyway i wish my therapist was more helpful n not telling me its okay to pursue relationships with 40yo men

i’m gonna be so for real, if things don’t start changing for me in good ways i will be disappearing off the face of the earth
#Rasp Rambles#vent#my mental health is already in a shitty state and i am already considering multiple different ways to end my own fucking life#suicide mention#like i’m genuinely hanging on by the thinnest fucking thread only because i have friends that care about me. i don’t want any of them to be#sad about me dying. i’d say the same for my family but i don’t they ever have really given a shit about me so what does it matter.#i’ve been forced to be the perfect; quite child my entire fucking life and that was never good enough. i had to be kind and respectful#even though none of the adults in my family ever really were that to me. and the ones who were didn’t stay that way for long. it truly#sucks so fucking badly that i can’t get away from any of them. i don’t have a job because mental health issues; some physical health issues#and my lack of drivers license and car. i can’t financially support myself. i never get to fucking leave the house and go anywhere but the#store or my grandparent’s house with my mom and sister. i have ONE irl friend who i’m not even sure considers me a friend because#we haven’t gotten to hang out much since i graduated in 2023. i have practically no fucking support system in the physical world.#i don’t get to do fun things i enjoy that aren’t internet related besides drawing. but artblock and general depression are doing their#damn best to prevent me from even enjoying the creative process at all. one may think its difficult to feel lonely when you’re living in a#house with at least one other person but its fully fucking possible apparently. for me at least. i really wish my mom would actually get me#a therapist or psychiatrist i can see in person but we all know that’ll never fucking happen because again; she doesn’t fucking care enough#to make any actually helpful attempts to get me medicated for whatever the fucks going on in this stupid head of mine.#sorry for being incredibly fucking depressed and mad at 3am. it will happen again unfortunately for all of us.

i think i exist solely to be misinterpreted i dont know how to actually reach anyone my existence is just people looking at me and & rolling dice 2 see if theyll misinterpret me in a good or bad way && it is almost always bad
#people thinking im rude when i dont even know whats going on im just Standing Here or saying smthn w positive meaning but they dont see it#i have never in my life met anyone irl who doesnt instantly dislike me. and i MEAN that. i am so hateable my existence hits the switch#i dont. do anything i dont have any malice in me at all i try 2 be polite as hard as i can just because thats my default. thats me#i think thats where my ed comes in so hard. its always like well if u just get small enough people will like you. itll give u the chance.#im too big im too much of a nuisance i take up too much space im always in the way i need to be as small and likable as i can or everyone#will always hate me. theyll always despise me and im the reason im the one ruining it#ive only ever had like 2 actual friends (online) they looked at me n went yeah ur cool im gonna see the things u do as endearing & positive#even the one friend i have now constantly thinks im doing things negatively n scolds me for it. .... n man it feels Bad#even my therapist does it#i still think about my first therapist asking me if i think anyone can understand what im saying#maybe they cant#it makes me feel so lost o(-<#do i even exist if i cant reach anyone#i feel like tumblr is the only place i hav where ppl understand me#but maybe thats just because ive gathered a lil community of ppl who see me in a positive light#n thus the things i say r good instead of bad#maybe i dont make any sense and im the only one who cant see it#my bf is the only one ive ever felt actually understands me n i understand them n that does mean the world 2 me#but man. in everything else i am so lost#i am so inhuman and it is obvious#it feels like everyone else is on a different floor level & building than me an im just looking through the window#and theyre deciding whether im a creep or someone gazing out 2 enjoy the day
