#it’s possible to be happy

[unsafe-chikku]

So on Tuesday, June 18, 2024, I had an inkling that my oversharing problem was still just as bad as ever.

So I thought to myself, no matter what I try I can’t get myself to think and be mindful before I speak.

I’ve been trying since I was 12 years old. 18 years I’ve tried, and even with adderall and meds it’s enormously difficult. I can barely understand the concept of it.

But then another thought came in.

Well. You are thirty now. You are doing better than ever. You have done a lot you thought you could never do. Try again.

So for the rest of the day I took time, not a lot, but a bit before speaking. I considered my words before I said them, and kept back 75% of the blabber that wanted to come out.

It was very difficult at first but over the course of the next few hours it became easier. Like flexing a muscle I didn’t know I had. And the more I trued the easier it got.

Then I thought, well, if I can think before I speak- that’s a level of self control I’ve never had before. What else can I do?

And so for the last few days I’ve been putting in a lot of effort to really think before I do anything. And while I feel it is still more difficult for me than the average neurotypical person, it’s infinitely easier.

I’m fairly certain(in definitely neurologically inaccurate terms) that my synapses in my frontal lobe finally clicked together correctly, albeit still “underdeveloped” compared to my peers. But I’m fine with that. It is what it is.

So yeah, if you have ADHD as severe as I have had, and are under 30, just remember that it’s possible your brain just needs that extra time. Keep putting in effort and especially keep being kind to yourself.

I'm very sorry to ask something like this, I've really been struggling with this question, and I wanted to ask the combined wisdom of the people on this site

I would like to know why you keep going, and what drives you to keep living. I know there are a lot of reasons to stay alive and enjoy life, I can think of a few that personally resonate with me, but I really want to know what your reasons are

You do not have to comment on this if that's too big of an ask, and I'm very sorry for asking something like this, I really need someone's help, I feel like I don't have much purpose

Also if I may ask, please don't post any suicidal ideation in the comments of this post, I really can't handle something like that right now

Happy Halloween from the Sygna Siblings! 🍬

My HC is that these are their Halloween costumes they wear on the Battle Subway to match their precious partners Chandelure & Eelektross! They’d battle with an added flair, handing out candy to their passengers.

As for me, I’ve got my homemade Rain Witch hat I wear every year, promising fair weather to those who act a treat & mischievous rainstorms to tricksters & overall jerks, huehuehue ⛈️⛈️⛈️

PS: GOT HIM!!

2023 is the year for asking the burning questions like "What if David Tennant came back to play a queer, nonbinary, nearly-immortal, otherworldly being that loves Earth and whose greatest adversary list somehow includes a cup of coffee?"

"Trick or treat! I've prepared all of the best treats for you darling!"

I actually designed costumes for all of the boys but due to time restraints couldn't make an illustration with all of them but worry not! Silas has all the treats you could possibly want

dad villain au: did emilie just. not consider at all that adrien was literally dying at the time. wow

she's in the habit of deciding when Adrien's suffering is acceptable, and if it is, she'll just fix it later.

Did you think I was done? Ahahahaha no, I have more.

Because chapter 70 of MOMU gave me the very dynamic between them that I missed so much, I just blacked out and started drawing uncontrollably lmao

Also. ALSO. I noticed a while ago that Prowl has the habit of..like…constantly frowning. So. I did a bit of research and made this graph.

In 70 chapters, Prowl frowns rougly 104 times. And the intensity of this gesture is very clearly correlated with the development of his relationship with Jazz, as you can see ahahahahah It might be wrong tho don’t take me seriously I’m not good with graphs

being aromantic is like. hey btw you're going to live a life that is the culmination of most of society's worst nightmares. sorry lol ✌️ but then you turn around and take a really good hard look at it and it turns out that living in that nightmare is fucking awesome and you get to wake up every day and take that fear that other people have and laugh and hold it close until it's a great joy for you instead. and being happy is a radical act that you define instead of someone else. and you're sexy as fuck that's just a fact of life i don't make the rules on that one

We have moved past Maya and Franziska wingmanning narumitsu as a society. They would not fucking do that. We need to realise the truth which is that Larry and Gumshoe would try to wingman them and only succeed through failure
