It’s nice to reacquaint myself with the joys of playing in the rain

Finishing work early to stop off at the beach on the way home was a good idea i’d say! Soothing listening to the wind and seeing the waves in the distant! Enjoy the little things in life folks🩵🌊

Profound anger with the world you live in, and deep sadness that consumes you are both Soooooooo 2014.

Get with the times. We’re seeing life as a blessing, and having hope for humanity now🙄

I got fired for a combination of things I later realized was burnout symptoms+ COVID.

It took me over 2 years to find work again.

Burnout has a lot of overlap with CPTSD, I found out the hard way.

For the entire first year I was completely non-functional. I even had physical and auditory flashbacks to the things that made my burnout happen. I was exhausted and exhausting myself. I didn't know how to stop.

I had to cut back on a lot of people, I didn't have the emotional or mental strength for even some of my closest friends. And certainly not for the more energetic ones.

For the second year I was learning how to get out of bed again. I don't remember much of it. Not in a natural way at least. Event-memories are there, but they feel out of place. Towards the end of that year, I was able hold short positive conversations. I watched the job market and considered my newly acquired limitations. There wasn't much available.

I cut back on more people. The lack of financial stability was too much on top of my still unwell mental state, and most of my friends weren't doing well either. I love them immensely, but I needed space in a way they couldn't provide. Ironically I ran into an old friend during that time, and it helped ground me again.

I sat at my hobby desk a little each day and disassociate. I couldn't read. I couldn't watch anything or play games. I could barely listen to music. But sitting there was nice. My desk was familiar, even if I didn't have the strength to do any of the hobbies that I kept there.

Months went by. Chores got a little easier. The flashbacks stopped. Food tasted like it mattered. My desk felt like home again. I kept it cleaned up, and started cleaning my tools and drawing supplies again. I managed to get myself to start applying for work again. Spent more time pulling my life together. A few friends supported me in ways I can't even begin to express my gratitude for.

Tried my luck again with the job market, and I managed to land one! Got lucky with a manager and co-workers I like as well.

I still find myself struggling at my desk, but I painted again a few weeks ago. I even got my new account here set up properly.

It's slow.

It's painfully slow, but recovering is possible.

Be gentle with yourself.

I like that this post is really about mindfulness. Taking an extra step to slow down and enjoy the ritual / experience the moment is what really helps with staying present and receiving the full effect of the little treat. Redbull, ginger ale, tea. Being with your plets. Going outside and smelling the air (take caution allergy havers lol I’m allergic to outside but need it XD).

one thing no one ever teaches you is that you can just make things nicer and more intentional- you can take your energy drink, pour it in a rocks glass over ice with a slice of lime on the rim, and sip it slow. and you'll think, "wow i am the biggest faggot to have ever lived". and you know what? you're right.

I just bought a men's XL hoodie for $2 at a thrift sale and it was the best $2 I've spent in a long time. Like oh my gosh I feel like nothing can go wrong. I'm invincible. I feel so safe and protected. Bro I've been on antidepressants for years and no pill has ever made me feel so safe and so contented. I never want to take it off. I'm going to live in this hoodie now and no one can stop me.

Prompt 314

Danny has discovered something absolutely amazing. While he can’t cook for shit, he can? Actually bake? Really well? Must be those bonding sessions in Long Now with Clockwork making all those cookies and cakes and everything else. 

But? This means he can A, actually make himself food, and B, has somehow befriended several more ghosts, including his rogues. Apparently he gave off bedraggled cat vibes when covered in flour. Or they just enjoyed the cupcakes he’d made to look like them in a sleep deprived ferver. 

But hey, he even has a decent job while he’s in (online due to medical issues, officially) college at one of the local bakery-cafes. Which means he also gets free coffee, so that’s nice too. Just erm, he might’ve gotten in the habit of handing cookies or other baked goods to anyone trying to attack him.

Look, it’s how he befriended his rogues (Apparently Fright Knight, being the ghost of Autumn, enjoys pumpkin spice cookies, who knew?) and they even continue to visit too. 

So really, it’s not his fault that there’s several goonion (honestly Sam will be pleased to learn they’ve got a union) members who are now constantly coming to the bakery. And- okay is that another undead person? Have a cupcake.
