ocd is weird bc I definitely still have it, I just got really good at identifying it and shutting it down. Like I was taking down a gross medical sticker on my wall that for some reason I stuck up there last year, and my brain was like “no don’t do it. You’ll die if you do that” so I put it back on and my brain was like “or…maybe life will get way better if you take if off. And if you leave it life will get worse. Want to make that choice” and I was like really stumped over it, then suddenly I was like ohhhhh ocd you tricky devil… and tore the sticker off. I go thru this exact experience about thrice a week.
#ocd#Just a peek into my twisted mind……#Jokes aside ik this probably still sounds weird and mentally ill#But trust me on this#It’s way better than it sounds#At least comparatively#Back in 2020 I literally didn’t piss for 2 days because I thought pissing would cause the world to end#Like me at 15 was legit contemplating suicide bc it got to a point where I couldn’t even move#Without being convinced it would end the world#So all I could do was just lay in bed and I couldn’t grab my phone either bc that would also end the world I guess#Couldn’t blink freely had to do like one blink two fast blinks one slow blink#Damn just remembering how much it tormented me before I got a handle on it is actually pissing me tf off Wtf#Fuck ocd I fucking hate ocd#I’m so glad I outsmarted it#Shit was easy too#Bc the way my ocd worked was it was just completely spontaneous#There were certain patterns especially w numbers (like I couldn’t interact w the numbers 6 or 4)#But for the most part it was just whatever my brain decided was bad in that exact moment#Which was why it got as bad as it did so quickly#But that was also why I was able to go “ok well if I obey any compulsion all my fears will come true”#And that WORKED#IT WORKED FUCKING PERFECTLY#SO FUCKING DUMB#who even needs therapy I’m fucking Mr. Mental health. Fuck uou#tw compulsions#tw ocd#tw sui mention#< sui mention is in tags

me when my disability disables me:
#heds#ehlers danlos syndrome#hypermobile eds#hypermobile ehlers danlos#today i'm feeling kvetchy about not being able to run (or even walk fast sometimes) because inflating my lungs takes so much effort#and the pulmonologist said i have vocal cord dysfunction which doesn't fit my symptoms and then didn't fix the insurance thing that#he said he'd fix#so i'm kinda just stuck until i can get another pulmonologist which is hard cuz there aren't a lot in my area and wait times are eons#and even then most don't know jack about hEDS bc why would they it's a rare disease but then they aren't helpful bc they don't know jack#about the rare disease that is probably the root cause of my symptoms#and being dizzy when i stand up or tilt my head back too far and not tolerating heat the way i used to also sucks thanks POTS#at least i don't faint all the time?#and i never can tell if i'm hungry or not because acid reflux makes me feel like i'm starving when i just ate and other times like i'm full#when i haven't eaten. so i can't trust my hunger cues which is really irritating. and Tums don't help my acid#i can't just keep doing prilosec courses. i need to see a GI doc maybe they could do something but there's no time#and none of this is gonna kill me and i can still function it's just so tiring always having something hurting or gross or hungry#espec. when to other people i look like i should be able to do it all just fine so they're shocked when a flight of stairs winds me#i'm young and should-be healthy and this is unfair and i hate it and i wish my body worked right but i have it better than plenty of ppl#so really i can't complain

Arlo did a pretty good job for his first time at the vet since CareCenter threw a towel over his head and tackled him to the floor and I am very proud of him
#two of the techs who tackled him were fear free certified >:(#he was muzzled and they didn’t even try#they didn’t even ask me it happened so fast#so I have been afraid to bring him to the vet since#he just got treats thrown at him and otherwise ignored which is what he likes#we’re gonna try a chill pack next week (just trazodone makes him less trusting so that’s out but we’ll see how the mixture hits)#and if he still says no to being touched by his new nice doctor then he will be sedated#which will be expensive but that’s okay#I want to try him on Prozac#to see if it helps to get him okay to give consent to have me groom his rear end#and to help with household dog tensions#and bc he is deeply affected by Tyrell’s anxiety around him to the point she’s not comfy handling him much without me there#and we wanna work on that too#but we need bloodwork first obv#so that’s what we’re tryna do#he also needs a dental but they have a little monthly plan thing at our vet that’s gonna cover that#and once Arlo’s sorted OTTILIE has to go to the vet bc she might have allergies or asthma#(I talked to them about it and they agree she needs to go in but that it is ok to wait until after we get Arlo sorted)#it was a lot when Juni and Rory were having issues at the same time lol#anyway#he did pretty good#arlo#dogblr

wanted to go to the gym social tn but as I was getting my stuff together to go out, a friend said smth that rly pissed me off and now I'm too fucking angry to go out. fucks sake man
#fucking hate ppl commenting on my 'self control' for being sober bc I get it all the fucking time and its so patronising !!!!!!#even if its not intended that way. dont care didnt fucking ask. especially from someone im friends with#but whatever i should know better than to expect ppl to know me#maybe other ppl need discipline to stay sober but i dont bc the alternative is a non option and always has been. not that hard for me#and i have my own self control struggles w other shit man like im not pristine and perfect fuck off. you only dont know abt the#shit i actually fucking struggle with bc i dont know or trust u well enough for that.#and i HATE when ppl fucking imply im susceptible to peer pressure. im not. dont fucking overestimate your influence#ppl act like shit is a choice like actually i have a trauma rooted fear that comes from ppl in my family dying of substance abuse thanks 👍#which i dont expect strangers to know. but my friends should fucking know that!!! but i guess its not worth remembering#whatever it doesnt matter im prolly upset for other reasons im going to go out for a walk to calm down i cant be at home right now#even more fucking annoyed that im missing the gym over this. i shouldve been there an hour ago.#i mean i could still go maybe the cycle ride would stop me feeling mad and blowing everyone up once im there. i doubt it tho#UGH. fucking whatever. whatever whatever whatever. sorry for ventposting i was typing out a longass reply#but its not gonna fucking do anything except come across needlessly aggressive and ruin the conversation#even if i really really want to be needlessly aggressive. and ruin the conversation. but i guess i have the self control to not. lmfao#what if i just killed myself. anyway i think im gonna go get some shitty fast food on this walk and watch a horror movie when im back#.vent

please take as much time as you need to rest and recover. burn out is so hard and takes so much to heal from. your art and your supporters will still be here when you get back :) take care <3
Thank you very much
Unfortunately, my situation doesn't really allow me to take the time I need. I've got a ~two month hiatus scheduled for my midseason, but much like my first hiatus I'll most likely be working double time during it...
It's unfortunate because I could really really use a bigger break!
Having the time and flexibility to work on other projects really fires me up and keeps me going, and being able to take a guilt free day off for family and friends is necessary to my mental health, and I've been having to turn people down lately...
This is a very kind message, and I'm sorry to vent in response! But I just feel transparency about the pressure I'm under is necessary and important. I'd love to take the time I really need, but due to deadlines and that pesky "needing money to live" I can't.
But, once the series is over I intend to take a pretty big break before I start whatever I'm doing next! I've got so many short stories and projects planned that I want so badly to get to, I can't wait to really get to truly dive in to them!
#im so sorry to take a nice message and respond like this! but just... trust me haha i know my supporters are genuinely here for me <3#but webtoon... not so much unfortunately. i mean im sure i could take a longer break but theres the looming anxiety#that ill get in trouble or itll ruin my chances of working with them again etc etc#i took this week and i genuinely took it off. sort of? i flew to a convention which was exhausting#and i did paintings that i hope to print eventually#and i. started planning and prepping for a Kickstarter. for time and time again...#so ive still been working the whole time. but i love working!#i just... like to be able to work on things OTHER than time and time again...#and unfortunately for a few months. more than a few months. i haven't been able to do anything outside of it.#even all of my paintings have been for it cause i cant afford to switch my mindset!#my first hiatus i moved. worked on a pitch for my next series. and then i made two episodes a week the entire time#and i still ran out of episodes...#i dont know if im just not fast enough or if something is wrong with my brain that i have to fight to get it to focus but.#yeah i mean ive been burned out! been really burned out for like a year now#i can tell by how much better i feel after literally 1 week of doing anything else#and how tired i feel explaining this and knowing ive got another 3 months before i get another break#ok sorry i vented a lot more in the tags. it's hard to explain all of this eloquently and i like my posts to be somewhat professional#asks#anon#vent#delete later#and also how often my brain keeps wanting me to like. beg for 'nice words' from other people#(i always stop myself from asking people for compliments and stuff because otherwise i get very carried away and do it too regularly)#(people are very nice to me all the time. the kindness is endless and i need to let myself recognize and appreciate it rather than seek more#(its sort of a mental health thing I've been trying to like... force myself to do)#(for myself and my longevity but also for others sake lol. ive been bad about it in the past)

celiac disease voted "extremely annoying to travel with" for 5th trip in a row
#personal#my kingdom for an entirely gluten free fast food joint#some of them have fries i can eat#or i could order a sad plain burger patty#but like... do i trust them to follow the correct allergen handling procedures at a restaurant designed to do everything super fast#not really...#we got in super late and the restaurant we normally go to was closed and i ended up eating apples and cheese for dinner#which feels like medieval peasant pilgrimage food#apparently the peasant food was inadequate because my brain is now sending me visions of fried meats

Sometimes I want to be open about (probably (still)) being a system to ppl I know
But then I know I always go back on it fearing I'm wrong, and what might come out of it.
Is it really denial? Or is it just being covert, being afraid, and hiding because of it?
(I mean I think the point of denial is kinda to hide from *yourself* anyways so it's still hiding but YK-)
#sepiasys.txt#a thought#Honestly every time I have TRIED to be in denial anymore; it gets hardcore rejected. Like my brain retaliates so fast to denial#Which in and of itself kinda makes me wanna deny it ironically bc like. is denying the denial a sign it's faking? like I'm so convinced?#I don't think so. idk; denial passes by real fast bc of the denying denial and then not caring anymore#not currently happening btw just remembering it is a thing that happens when I do deny it#Anyways the point of this is worrying that mayhaps my friend has been erm looking at my stuff and yeah mild paranoia that im ignoring :3#Times thinking of admitting to that same friend about it and being too afraid to.#Too afraid to give our current SP (they gave us theirs so we have an old one we used to friend em)#I think we need to overcome this tbh. Intrinsically connected to the whole trouble with *vulnerability* and trust stuff probably#Idk. Baby steps though; please. It might be really really stressful if we go guns blazing w/it =w=;;;#queued post bc its meh.

mayrina is STILL pregnant in act 3????? you're telling me we've done ALL this shit in barely any time at all? wasn't she close to having her child in act 1? there's no way we breezed through act 1 and 2 that fast. I could believe the whole game taking place over 9 months. but if mayrina's still not given birth between acts 1 and 3....that would suggest it's only been a month at most, right? which just. makes No sense to me.
#bg3#bg3 spoilers#thoughts about media#plot hole??? it has to be. there's no way this game doesn't take place over at least. idk 5 months.#there's just FAR too much that happens! and they have to travel most of the land by foot!#the timeline is definitely something that's had MY interest because corydalis has children back in baldur's gate.#they aren't alone obv.#but like. those are his kids man! they are worried about him and he's worried about them!#I mean. they would figure out their dad is alive Before he makes it back to baldur's gate because NONE of them trust gortash.#like if gortash was approaching powerful people BEFORE the abduction happened- it would make sense for corydalis to have been approached#and obviously he would tell gortash off. which provides a really easy explanation for HIS abduction.#so I think the kids would put things together real fast with how gortash seizes power after a bunch of powerful people have gone missing.#and they would meddle. they would 100% meddle. much to corydalis' despair.#like I think that a reunion would take place at wyrm's crossing before or after the coronation.#interesting to imagine how that whole scenario would make everyone else feel. hm.#but like. all this makes me wonder where the timeline of gortash seizing power even fits. because surely that didn't also happen in a month

I was wondering if you did commissions? Your art is incredible and would definitely be worth it
I do yes! And sometimes I post them (some I keep between me and the commissioner if it’s important like a special gift for someone which I’m fine doing tbh) I tag all of those with #commission work, if you want to look through past stuff.
Taking commissions tho that is something I only do over discord due to being scammed in the past. You know how it is people ask to commission give you all the refs you do it and they don’t pay you yada yada. So I do discord instead and any first time commissioners probably will need to pay half up front and half later on just as a safety net for myself. Reoccurring commissioners or ones Iv grown a base with I usually ask to be paid afterwards due to like my morals and actually feeling better about having that personal incentive to complete the work in a timely manner.
Anyways
You can find me via the Alternian empire server on discord of course I tend to only advertise in there and in short bursts with like 3-6 slots per month but they do tend to go fast.
#always feel free to find me via discord I’m still clockworkreapers#it’s the best way to chat with me in real time#also be warned even when I do open slots they tend to get swept up pretty fast#usually 30 or so min is normal so keeping an eye in self promo is useful#I do not control the rate at which the slots are taken (insert lobster meme)#at least my turn around is pretty speedy as well! once I start it’s usually 1-3 days and it’s complete#people are always surprised#also if you come to me with Ai generated images as refs I’m going to cut you off there sorry no not taking the comm#I don’t trust it that is a red flag to me#ask#clock rambles

everytime i think im done ranting i remember something else LMFAO this one is extra long i hit tag limit god mf damn
#self#for instance.....my mom wants me to cut off everyone who is still tied to the school#and im so mad at myself for feeling a certain type of way when the campus manager called me not too long ago basically to tell me she doesnt#trust the girl who did this shit and she wasnt mad at me but was also mad at me for bringing her to her dads house#for reference we were trying to get a cat from the campus managers dads house LMFAO#and i honestly cannot wait to speak to her again and be like 😔 god dammit you were right like you were every single time#i just dont understand the wiring in her head to think the shit she says and does to people is normal and okay and how she doesnt realize it#is literally a mental health break. when i finally told my mom the first thing she said was shes probably off her medication#which.....probably isnt wrong sadly coming from someone who has borderline and very easily can lose it#but the difference is i dont give in to the urges to try to hurt everyone around me in every way i can#and me and her have said before that we thought she might also have borderline because we were very similar#but god damn does she love proving that if she has it its extremely severe or its something else entirely#on an honest note. shes incredibly narcissistic and i know her mom is part of the reason shes that way bc she was given princess treatment#her entire fucking life and then doesnt understand when other people dont treat her the same way#i hate rambling about this and i hate it that it is bothering me so fucking bad but like ???#if youre going to decide that you can put our past aside period and move on then fucking do that and stop bringing the past up as a way to#hurt me and the people around you???? she acts like shes not done horrible fucking things to people. so sorry i wrote a letter that was very#honest at the time. so sorry that when you found out i apologized for it and said i regret it because 2 weeks after my apology i no longer#regret writing it. if its making school a living hell for you....theres probably a reason for that girlfriend#i am not the person who put that shit in your folder#though i seriously fucking doubt its actually in her folder shes probably assuming it is#and youre the one who made a complete ass of yourself to every educator that ever stepped foot in that building#that has nothing to do with me that you are a literal warning given to every new educator!!!! i havent even been in school there in months#yet IM the problem??? how am i the problem when i graduated in fucking january???? everything since then falls on you#AND YET AGAIN! MIGHT I MENTION! IT IS NOT JUST MY LETTER!!! THERES AT LEAST 2 OTHER ONES!!!!!#BECAUSE IM NOT THE ONLY PERSON SHE DOES THIS SHIT TO!!!!#god sometimes i sit back and realize that theres a reason she regresses as a person and i do not#im not going to sit still anymore and let someone walk all over me and she can thank herself for that#shes who taught me that blocking and running as fast as i can doesnt fix anything#so here we are bitch. youre not blocked and im sure youre sitting at home thinking about how youre right about everything

when they don't want to do something, byan is either all anger and violence or they're literally whining and kicking the ground, all overdramatic rolling eyes, sinking shoulders, and even some downright petulant stomping, and it's just really funny to me
#when u had to grow up too fast but a lot of u just didn't make it past a certain age#...that makes it sad actually. this was supposed to be funny childishness#like they do a lot of the usual teenager groaning and grumbling but sometimes it goes beyond that#it happens a little more regularly around people they trust I'm now realizing which actually makes this interesting 🤔#something something feeling safe means they don't have to put on any act means they can be more of a kid or something#.......this is not the direction this was supposed to go I just wanted to shitpost and laugh about byan acting like a child but oops#good morning here I go making my shitty muse sad again ig#━━ ˟ ⊰ ✰ OOC ⋮ DON’T @ ME.

ppl will just reblog posts w outright historical misinformation in them
#source: just trust me bro#text post#if a claim sounds strong and compelling you should still fact-check it#bc ppl will make very specific statements like 'oh this specific thing happened after this thing happened as a result of--' and#theyre getting the order of the timeline messed up#and no one is pointing that out. like. ok#i dont like to get my hands dirty on tumblr dot com so you know it wont be me doing that#it tends not to really do anything bc by the time it gets out there... it's already out there#there's already a mistruth on however many ppl's blogs. i've never seen someone directly comment misinfo on my dash#but ppl happily REBLOG it all the time.#and i get it like i get it we all wanna reblog stuff that affirms our world view#this is why i tend not to blog much about social/political issues very much anymore#bc this happens all the time when ppl try to make objective claims#or when they do cite sources the sources will often have their own problems and/or be misquoted#im very skeptical of information i find or see shared on here#which is not to say that my own personal politics are changed or even that theyre vastly different from ppl partaking in them on here#but. like. geez you know it feels like there's no way to win or participate in a useful discourse anymore#idk how to talk about serious issues online in 2024 and it's quite dispiriting honestly#there are no standards anywhere anymore.#everything moves too fast and we want easy satisfaction and that's a huge reason why misinformation is so effective#all across the political spectrum but especially on platforms where it's easy to form an echochamber

serious need of advice:
anyone who has/had driving anxiety have any tips of how to cope with this major anxiety? i’m 23 years old and still can’t drive. I mostly rely on family to drive me and honestly getting very tired of it (on top of hearing some complaints haha…) i hopefully want to learn how to drive sometime in the future. but i have terrible anxiety about it.
i don’t recall having any serious traumatic events happening in a car. i mean i’ve had the “almost moments”. most of the time i go with my mom, she’s pretty decent at driving most of the time, but has her own issues and sometimes panics while driving and will start yelling during these panics. which i believe being exposed to them, adds onto my anxiety, especially being frantically asked what to do by her when i have no driving experience, so i panic too, but try to hide it from her. also, my mom has had her own driving incidents throughout my life, so seeing her bruised up or how damaged the cars are….probably adds to it as well.
i do believe i have a control issue, which is rooted from anxiety because i can’t control other the drivers around me. on top of the idea of being responsible for a big piece of machinery which could end mine or someone else’s life. plus in jersey…it’s known that people here are horrible drivers…not only from experience, but people do talk about it quite a lot. so, that kinda brings my anxiety up higher.
i’m not saying i’m definitely jumping behind the wheel, especially not right now because i don’t want to pressure myself more and feel out of control. if anyone has any advice dealing with this, please let me know. it would mean a lot to me 🥺
#.txt#anxiety#coping methods#driving anxiety#advice needed#i know people recommend exposure therapy#but unfortunately i cannot#because we only have one car which is my mom#and she has zero trust in me with it#even if i were to drive slow in an empty parking lot#trust me i asked and she shot me a look 👀#i think she was about 23 when she got her license#my aunt was the total opposite and was in line the day she turned 16#i would probably start with shorter routes and local places#mostly during the daylight#and avoiding highways#which you can do while using google maps#highways gives me major anxiety#because everything is so fast#and close#and constant lane changing

I think it will/would be best for me if, over just posting regularly little snuppets of my OC's, my Comics get popular and I can kinda like.. be a step removed from the people who read them
Because i want people to enjoy my oc's but i don't think i could handle people sending me unsolicited asks and messages about their Headcanons for My little guys
And I realise posting a comic instead of just About my Oc's in sort of contextly chunks won't Stop this behaviour but i feel like i could somehow put up better bounderies that way..
#monster noises#i follow that fellow with the gay italian dogs and my God#people just asserting things about that persons characters.....#they seem to be chill and fine with it#but if that were Me i'd be Loosing my Mind#i'd be responding politely#but inside i'd be screaming and biting and throwing up#you have every right to play with my guys once they are out in the world but keep it amongst Yourselves!!!#when you are talking to me you hold No power!#and too be clear if it's my friends and people i trust like.. writing my guys interacting with their guys or whatever that's Cool#but my brain has a problem with the Concept of random people talking to me about My Guys as if they have any kind of creative input on them#which is a really funny reaction for me to have as a guy who#notoriously#will just run off into the hills with something a friend created if given even an iota of creative control or decision making power#because my brain works Too Fast#i love to help people develop their stuff!#but i've gotta be kept in a strict pen and on a tight lease fjfkkdkfkf#i'm working on it i promise
