Lmao OMFG Martin. He's now confirmed to have been jealous of

- (possibly lesbian?) Cop for daring to have private conversations with Jon

- literal embodiment of death Jon has only metaphorically met in a coma-dream

- lady he talked to for half an hour, once

Truly he is the "you know other people" meme

Reminder that caregivers of children are, by definition, supposed to provide shelter, food, and clothing. They did not do you a huge favor by providing this. It was the bare minimum of the job description that they voluntarily signed up for. You are not indebted to your caregivers for giving you the very basics.

The Toxic Relationship: How To Identify And Take Action

You feel exhausted and underappreciated because you give more than you receive.

You frequently feel mistreated or as though your needs need to be addressed.

After chatting or spending time with the other person, you experience depression, rage, or fatigue.

I personally find going into shops very anxiety inducing, especially if it's a place I haven't been before. They always feel so unpredictable.

~ a little something about Dazai and his tantrums ~

"... Hmph. I hope you crash this car and we both die."

The moody brunet mutters under his breath as he looks out of the car window, his arms crossed over his chest, refusing to look at you. He was awfully cute whenever he did this, and oh so vexing at the same time. You learned to acclimate to this very early into your relationship with him.

"What? All I said was that I was going to be driving us, Osamu!"

Your laugh is light hearted as you focus on the road ahead, dismissing his whiny behavior for another one of his... Melodramatic performances, his co-workers once called it. He finally turns to glare at you, but a wicked glint in his narrowed eyes betrays him... You can tell he's more unserious than anything. Playful, even. And besides, he would never actually be upset with you, he just can't stop thinking up schemes to make you roll your eyes at him. Your smile alone makes his thoughts impure, shame on you!

"Yeah, well... I feel dehumanized! overlooked! neglected..." He feigns offense, sighing heavily as he slouches into the passenger seat. He places a bandaged arm over his face, groaning softly but still side eyeing you to check if you're looking at him or not.

"You do that all on your own, silly."

"Excuse me? I'm expressing my grievances and you're calling me silly? Oh, so that's what this is really about. You don't love me anymore! What a cruel beauty you are..."

He gasps, now burying his face into the crook of his elbow, pretending to weep as he mumbles incoherent nonsense about how much you mistreat him. In actuality, he was giddy as hell. You park the car, and turn to face him, a coy smile flashes on your lips.

"Nobody said anything about not loving you. Now, what can I do to fix this, Mm?"

He lifts his head up, suddenly composed and shrugging his shoulders as if nothing ever happened, speaking in a matter of fact voice that somehow deepened.

"Well, definitely don't let me drive. I don't even have a license. I'd kill us in an instant."

"... Then why argue about it?!"

"Because you look so beautiful when you're yelling at me. And you make me feel alive. Anddd, because I'm bored~"

He flashes you a cheeky grin, it's dreamy and sickening. His eyes twinkle with mischief as he leans over the seat and flicks away a stray hair from your face. Dazai then taps the tip of your nose, slowly dragging his finger down to your plush bottom lip, gently flipping it over to expose your teeth. The pad of his finger gently swirls against your canines, and finally, retreats... He knows there's a time and place for his worship prodding. His eyes travel back up to yours, and you can swear they look darker than usual. If only the Port Mafia could see what became of the Demon Prodigy... A new man reborn! A man who loves!

The rest of the day is spent with you indulging Dazai, something along the lines of 'reparations' is what he calls it. Only he knows how much it means to him that you can handle him during his calculated outbursts... or rather harmless tests to prove you won't leave him at the first sign of trouble. He needs you to be in it for the longhaul, just like he is. It's deceptive, but no one has to know! He just loves you and these are simply counter measures. You'd probably call him selfish, but as long as you call him at all, he doesn't give a shit. Because in the grand scheme of things, he really can't drive, and you two are inevitably endgame.

You're the ball, and he's your chain.

Can you help us with panic research?

Contact joel.lewin@hmc.ox.ac.uk if you're interested.

University of Oxford researchers are seeking UK-based participants who experience either:

- Panic attacks

- OCD

- or no current mental health difficulties

The study consists of a 15-minute phone call (or email if that feels too difficult) and a 20-minute online questionnaire.

Through this research we hope to develop a better understanding of the relationship between fear of losing control and anxiety.

You can also find more information on our website here.

How emotionally absent parents are destroying your life without you knowing?

A child's life is significantly impacted by parenting, and emotional connection is essential to a child's well-being.

Emotionally absent parents may fail to offer dependable emotional support and participation due to several causes. Parents who struggle to show their children emotional support and involvement consistently are said to be emotionally absent. They could find it difficult to effectively communicate, show affection, or comprehend their child's emotional requirements.

Although they may be physically present, these parents may be emotionally absent, making their kids feel unloved, irrelevant, or alienated. They could be affected by personal problems, stress, mental health concerns, or unsolved trauma.

Typical causes include

Continuing parent-related difficulties

Stress and overwhelm among parents

inadequate role models

Lack of emotional intelligence Relationship issues

Parental emotional neglect hurts children's life.

How emotionally distant parents negatively impact their children's lives:

Emotional Abuse Attachment Problems

Low self-esteem Problems with emotional control

Interpersonal and Social Challenges

Psychological Disorders

How to stop being an emotionally distant parent

Reflection and Awareness of Oneself

Look for counselling or therapy

Study and use emotional intelligence

Make self-care a priority and seek out community support.

A transforming journey of self-discovery and resiliency is required to recover from the anguish of having emotionally distant parents who reared you. You can escape the cycle of emotional absence and lead a fulfilling life by realizing the damage, getting help, practicing self-compassion, fostering healthy connections, setting boundaries, and rewriting your story.

call me crazy if you want. but i would love to see percy and sally go to therapy together. because these two have so much to unpack. the trauma. the codependency. the separation anxiety. the unspoken, pre-determined grief sally refuses to talk about. the unspoken, blood-coiling anger percy refuses to address. the potential is there. and i need it so badly.

[biggest-gaudiest-patronuses]

growing up with a perpetually anxious primary caregiver is such a mindfuck. that shit will rewire your nervous system

[feralboo-the-weirdo]

You know what is just mind boggling? Neurotypical people exist. Like there are people who can just DO things and not have depression, anxiety (in every form ever), RSD, sensory overloads, and not get overwhelmed. Like there are people who can work for eight hours every day and still do things after. People who can make phone calls with no struggle. Who aren't constantly bombarded by a cacophony of thoughts both good and bad when they do things. Who have anxiety but it isn't crippling. who can spend hours, WEEKS with people and not get tired or fear that everyone there hates you. People who have no idea what Depression or intense trauma feel like. People who hear instructions and do it right first go. People who can follow a conversation without zoning out, or having to mask.

Like. Do neurotypical people actually exist?

Because I can't even imagine what it would be like to be neurotypical. Or mentally healthy. Both sound alien and foren. But like. Obviously they exist because neurodivergent people wouldn't struggle so much if not for how the world was structured for Neurotypical people but I don't know if I've ever met a neurotypical.

idk. food for thought I guess.
