im seeing a lot of posts about seasonal depression recommending vitamin d supplements and thats great and all but...

1. it's normal to feel a little gloomy in the winter. unless it affects your daily life, you dont have seasonal depression, you have the winter blues. if it does affect your daily life, please see a doctor. seasonal depression/SAD/MDD with seasonal pattern can be treated very effectively with antidepressants or light therapy (see below)

2. while there is a link between depression (particularly postpartum) and vitamin d deficiency, the effectiveness of vitamin d supplements as a treatment has not been conclusively proven.

3. even if you do suffer from seasonal depression, there's a good chance that your vitamin d levels are fine. if you regularly spend a decent amount of time outdoors during the summer months (mar-oct) when there is enough natural ultraviolet light available in latitudes like europe and north america for your body to synthesize its own vitamin d, you probably have enough stored in your fat cells to make it through the darker half of the year. if you live south of the 35th parallel you're making vitamin d year round.

supplements can't hurt (technically, excess levels of vitamin d can be toxic, but even with supplements you're unlikely to poison yourself) but, once again, my point is: even if you have a vitamin d deficiency, it's not necessarily connected to your seasonal depression, and even if there is a connection, it's not necessarily causal.

something super straightforward that is actually proven to work is light therapy, especially when its done early in the morning. it tackles a root cause (lack of daylight) and can help balance your circadian rhythm and your melatonin/serotonin production. it doesn't require a prescription (it's a lamp), you don't have to see a doctor in order to try it (it's a lamp), it's non-invasive (it's a lamp) and accessible (it's a lamp), and it has very few side effects (mostly stuff like eye strain or headaches since, again, it's a lamp). this is my second winter with a light therapy lamp and i have noticed a significant improvement not just in my overall mood but especially in my alertness and energy levels. so yeah. just putting that out there

Hey everyone back on another episode of why the fuck is my mother like this?

[of-mutts-and-men]

Hi! Hope this isn't TMI to ask but as a fellow trans dude I noticed a few posts with you talking about still having periods and from the pics you've posted I assumed you were on HRT? Did you stop at some point and kept the progress?

Basically you look fantastic and I'm just wondering if you're still on testosterone since I was surprised at the cycle mention.

Much love, you don't have to answer if it's too personal!

No problem! I've been on it for 5 years and only stopped for a month when I had top surgery. I started with injections for about 7 months and then switched to a cream version because I can't do the injections by myself. I didn't have periods when I was doing the shots but after maybe 2ish years I lowered my dose because my levels randomly went up to 2,000 for no reason when they should be no more than like 900 lol I have no idea what happened. And I've gotten them since then.

If you're on a high enough dose then you probably won't get them. I think my testosterone level is around 600 rn. So I think closer to 700+ makes it pretty likely you won't get periods, but from what I've seen, a lot of people still get them.

thinking about how Hisoka started out not wanting any material things to help him sleep because he wanted to be able to fall asleep in any situation, even uncomfortable ones, and how Mankai gradually gifted him things to help him sleep, that he first was warry about but soon enough he started to collect

and the boy who started out with nothing in his corner of his room now has a good pillow, countless plushies, which he always considers is a perfect gift, expertise on good pillows, an eyemask for sleeping purpose, welcoming cozy blankets, and even appropriated himself the coffin in the storage room for perfect napping spot, coffin that he filled with pillows and plushies and find ways to keep locked shut so Tasuku doesn’t drag him out of it (or else he becomes evil on purpose), and now he gets to complain everytime someone slightly disturb his sleep.

He agreed on rooming with Homare because he had such a deep sleep that he would have in theory not been bothered by his loud behavior, and instead he grew more and more irritated with it the more people taught him about cocooning because now his sleep is sacred.

And the lonely “nothing allowed to sleep” rhetoric, was traded with “gotta be hugging something no matter what” which led him to have nap and cuddle buddies like Azuma.

And i think it’s really just a peak character arc, to be someone who denied himself all sort of little comfort to not get used to it, to then become an hedonist plushy bot constantly seeking comfort he’s now allowed and expected to have. As he deserves.

reading posts about people noticing things that you do being its own form of love, and then thinking that the thought of being perceived at all is actually terrifying to me because i cannot imagine a situation where that wouldn't be a criticism of my person. and the realization that this is not supposed to be the case is wild to me lmao.

for my followers who don't know, this is JUNO LOVETTE and he is my biggest/main/favorite oc, he started off as a john lalonde kidswap like 4 years ago with an ex friend and then pretty quickly became his own thing. he's a mage of light, a derse player and a vessel for horror terrors. as a mage of light he worked as a guide or a booklet of information for other sburb players in his session, having finished his planets quest incredibly fast, he was essentially an NPC for most of his game up until he lost control of his body, going grimdark and attempting to finish sburb alone and bring the horror terrors to the new world. All of these drawings are post sburb as him as a 24 year old living on his Earth C. He's cattier, uses either Scissorskind or hammerkind, and is obsessed with morbid topics such as cannibalism, artificial intelligence, and psychology. He is an artist of all kinds, but mostly sticks to painting and music. He doesn't work in sculptures. Juno was raised homeschooled and extremely religious, with his overbearing, overly close father James Lovette and the ashes of his diseased grandpa (which he had eaten spoonfuls of in a fit to upset his father) and generally terrorized his little lake side neighborhood (based on IRL South Lake Tahoe)

He's an alcoholic, and struggles with dependency and escapism issues. I considered switching him over to be a hope player, but his personality fits as a light player too well. He's schizophrenic and struggles with communication, and at this point has essentially given up and committed to the bit of being a tortured strange off putting artist. He plays up the act really strongly, he's rarely if ever found without some sort of extreme makeup and clothing on. He's rarely if ever sober, and willing to make a public fool of himself as long as he thinks hes being funny. He has both an obsession with and a fear of blood and gore. He's extremely funny, but extremely hard to talk to and stomach if you aren't the kind of person to deal with high maintenance class clowns with a NEED to make people uncomfortable. He's not the nicest person nor the most pleasant to be around, but he has a huge heart and a lot of compassion, even if he lacks empathy. He's into alternative fashion and loves to dip his toes in essentially every sub culture, but his favorites are clowncore and romantic goth. He does a ton of color blocking.
