#up-and-down symptoms

Positively negative

Finally, after 12 days of positivity, a single red line came my way Saturday, freeing me to rejoin society.

Sharon, however, is still testing positive; she's a couple of days behind me, we suspect.

Meanwhile, our symptoms, though fairly mild, never followed the normal steady trajectory of improvement. They were up and down. Just when we thought they were gone for good, they would sneak back and ambush us.

I'll admit it - up until 12 days ago I was behaving as though COVID had disappeared. I think a lot of us are in for a harsh reminder this winter

when you say narcissist for jimmy you mean npd right .. just asking . nothing wrong with npd hcs i just wanted to know . some people rly hate npd jimmy but people need to realize that the *npd* doesn't make him bad it's *him* lol

yes i mean narcissistic personality disorder. i headcanon this not because of his shit from a butt actions but because of the way he reacts to stress & perceived condescension, and because he believes he deserves to be higher ranking and demands respect constantly from everyone, warranted respect or not. i would still hc him with NPD even if he wasn’t a bad person, it’s pretty woven into his character even if it’s not intentional

it's been a year and i still don't understand why ppl are deriding the astral sea version of gale's act 2 romance scene so much, trying to paint it as the "lesser" choice.

there's nothing even remotely practised or choreographed imo about baring your soul literally and figuratively to someone you're in love with.

I feel like absolute garbage today so no new art (sorry to the peeps whose commissions i promised to do today) but here is an update on this thing. Amputated part of its waist which is good, glued its legs on back to front which is. Unfortunate.

ok I wonder if there's someone out there who has this too

I don't get crushes or fall in love. instead, I become obsessed with people. I feel absolute loyalty and devotion to them. I'd do anything they ask without question. it's instinctive and automatic, I don't even think about it. I become their servant and follow them around like a puppy. every minimal attention from them gives me infinite joy.

this is always one sided and everyone eventually gets creeped out or annoyed and leaves. it breaks me every time. yet I can't stop it from happening. I try to hold back but it's almost impossible.

not that I would wish this on anybody, but please tell me I'm not the only one

yes lets feel sorry for the guy who harmed children whilst one of his victims is sitting right in front of you. Yep, that's a great way to have lunch. Cptsd is fun and you should try it- not!

every now and then i forget how bad my chronic illnesses are and every now and then my body is like 'hmmm you seem to have forgotten what it's like to be cripplingly bedridden and disabled and we don't want you to forget' and then i'm reminded and it feels a little like being yeeted into a granite cliff wall at full speed and leaving a dent

So there's been news floating around that tumblr is "dying" since it's going to be run by a skeleton crew. I highly highly doubt that it's going to actually die out (bc every time we hear about tumblr dying it comes crawling back. Like a cockroach.), but just in case, if you all ever need to find me elsewhere, the other place I post my art is on Instagram :)

On the one hand I am very, very glad to have figured out the symptom that happens at the very start of an allergic reaction for me, and that if I take a benadryl right then I can usually avoid pretty much the whole allergic reaction and get just a moderate headache at worst (instead of a hospital visit) but on the other hand it would be great if that symptom didn't also happen whenever I get cold. Like...do I need a benadryl or do I need a hot water bottle? Hard to tell lol (I am okay I have a system I just also think it's funny that those are the two things that start the same for me. Dysautonomia and mast cell issues are a confusing combo sometimes)
