#this is an actual problem

i ordered a used textbook and let me just say that i don't think you should get to list used items as being in good (or even fair) condition if they're so soaked in patchouli oil that you can smell it from two rooms over.

Mental health win, my doctoral advisors want to give me every possible accommodation so I can graduate on time!

Mental health massive L, I am not used to it so I'm too embarrassed to ask for said accommodations!

i feel like you like reading books 📚

I DO!!! i looooooooove reading books. which is funny bc i have dyslexia. but that never stopped me lololol.

im also a very fast reader especially if im hooked. ill finish 100k+ word books and fanfics in a day. like ill go on tiktok for 20mins get bored and go read. i read when i eat, before i sleep, in study breaks, on transit (even tho it makes me sick), on road trips (even tho that also makes me sick), and i buy a special book before i go on any plane and i always finish the book on the flight. if i find a movie or show is from a book id rather read the book bc then i can control the pace in my head (exceptions being game of thrones bc i watched the show w my friends but asoiaf is amazing). ill read anything too: novels, novellas, short stories, comics, manga, manhua, webtoons, and anything in between.

The urge to dye my hair blue so I can finally stop trying to beat the blue hair and pronouns allegations

[oh-my-gosh-a-rock]

this is so real. you know yourself better than anyone, and even if it is nothing, it is better than WAITING AND WAITING AND NO ONE TAKING YOU SERIOUSLY and plus, the imposter syndrome is real. venting a lol here but if u think u have ocd, and all your friends think you have ocd, and you can't convince your parent/gaurdian to just get you tested for ocd already it's not that hard, if it comes back positive I can finally freaking do something about it and be taken seriously, and if it comes back negative then HOORAY I DON'T HAVE OCD but now I know and I don't have to stress and have severe imposter syndrome over it and I can get back to my life

dear parents, if your child has "seemed fine this entire time" but is now seeking out diagnoses, mobility aids, medical help, more doctors, and is sharing their pain more. do not fucking shut them down? even if it ends up being nothing, showing them that support through all of that will seriously help them. if it ends up being something and you're a bitch to them, the joke will be on you and that strain on your relationship will never go away because. you didn't listen.

listen to kids. we tell you what we need, it's not that hard.

sorry i cant hang out i forgot how to mimic human like behaviour

[bipolarmango]

My doctor and therapist: now with this autism + ADHD diagnosis you need to learn to unmask because masking all the time will make you burn out again and feel like shit

Other people: well it's just interesting how after getting the diagnosis you suddenly start behaving like that I mean I'm not saying you're faking it's just funny how you suddenly cannot be normal like you were before

[commonzinnia]

yeah, sorry i exhibited symptoms of the disorder i told you i have. it will happen again because i have that disorder and will continue having it. hope this helps!! 🫶🫶🫶

"Are you ok?" I'm actually tired bro. From the bottom of my heart I'm tired

My biggest tip for fanfic writers is this: if you get a character's mannerisms and speech pattern down, you can make them do pretty much whatever you want and it'll feel in character.

Logic: Characters, just like real people, are mallable. There is typically very little that's so truly, heinously out of character that you absolutely cannot make it work under any circumstance. In addition, most fans are also willing to accept characterization stretches if it makes the fic work. Yeah, we all know the villain and the hero wouldn't cuddle for warmth in canon. But if they did do that, how would they do it?

What counts is often not so much 'would the character do this?' and more 'if the character did do this, how would they do it?' If you get 'how' part right, your readers will probably be willing to buy the rest, because it will still feel like their favourite character. But if it doesn't feel like the character anymore, why are they even reading the fic?

Worry less about whether a character would do something, and more about how they'd sound while doing it.

there’s something sooo sickening about how dunmeshis whole energy is like sometimes something terrible and awful happens to you and it changes you forever and nothing can make you the person you were before but there’s still love and there’s still sharing a meal together and there’s still living

[yappersx]

instead of working on my research or homework or anything academic i have spent the entire day writing a romcom oneshot that will never see the light of day. why.

[vilea777]
