#food. nap. shower

[wwooyology]

I have successfully written the first section of tmh 😌✋ tho I must admit I had to turn on my sad bitch playlist and drink my (totally not 3rd) can of monster in order to get it how I wanted.... I however have been awake since 3am and I'm exhausted plus have a birthday party to go to tomorrow 😮‍💨

I will probably continue to write tomorrow after the party and hope to get the second section done 🤞

now after all of this is said and done I may or may not end up writing an epilogue. I haven't fully decided yet.

okie I am going to go rummage for some food and probably take a shower before passing out 🫠 as for my inbox I might just hold off on those until tomorrow night! meaning this is your warning, if you haven't read part two and don't want any spoilers it's in your best interest to look away!!

The wild Executive Function can be seen emerging from its den sometime between 1:30 and 2:45pm. It may stay out for several hours beyond that time, but it is almost impossible to spot unless you catch it during that emergence.

Sometimes after 10pm you may think you've been approached by a wild Executive Function. Use caution! This is most likely the feral Hyperfocus variant. It may appear to behave in similar ways, but only applied to tasks of the lowest importance. Further, it displays parasitic behaviors, depriving the host of sleep and blood sugar.

Huh, eating a vegetable really does help. Who knew?

(AKA, I had a salad for lunch and felt less apathetic and depressy)

Speaking from bitter, frustrated, screaming, fight-picking experience ...

If you have functional ovaries and start feeling this way, also check your calendar.

It doesn't necessarily make me overstimulated, but it lowers my threshold for Everything Is Wrong Everyone Sucks How Dare You Exist In My Space lashing out over tiny stuff. Literally, I've nearly gotten divorced over the stupidest fights I've ever picked because ovaries are bullshit.

For me, it happens about two days before my cycle starts and lasts for a day; your mileage may vary.

Spicy-brained friends, I would like to propose an update to the very useful ‘if you hate everyone, eat, if everyone hates you, sleep, and if you hate yourself, shower’ mantra to live by

Have you suddenly become a petty, hateful little gremlin who thinks people should face the firing squad for (checks notes) leaving teabags on the counter, breathing loudly, or daring to exist in the same space as you? Perhaps mundane and reasonable requests like ‘hey, we agreed to hang out now, let’s hang out’ make you want to scream and move to a yurt in the woods.

You. Are. Overstimulated.

People talk a lot about being overstimulated, and the physical/mental effects of it. What I haven’t seen is people talking about what it does emotionally, and it took me an embarassingly long time to link up those nitpicky, resentful emotions with the state of overstimulation/meltdown/shutdown.

These feelings do not mean that you’re a bad person! They probably aren’t how you actually feel about the people around you. They probably do mean that your nervous system is at its absolute limit and any request/demand/stimulus is Too Much and taking you into fight or flight territory.

Go lie down in a dark room for an hour, or find somewhere safe and familiar to stim for a bit. If it’s happening a lot, schedule yourself regular low-stimulation shutdown time

Signed: someone who moved in with their nearest and dearest only to have a massive crisis of faith about Suddenly Hating All of Them. I don’t hate them, it’s just overstimulating living with people. If I can spare anyone else a similar 9 months of suspecting that they may actually be a bit of a shit person, then this post is worth it!
