    I had a really complicated discussion this afternoon, about a really complicated patient. And it did not go the way I expected, and it was a really crappy discussion.

    With the pandemic going on, time seems to be really flying by even quicker than usual this year. I'm not much of an outdoorsman, but I like taking strolls around the neighborhood, visiting parks, going on hiking trails...things to do a few times a week to kill time. Being sequestered inside's made even someone who likes keeping to themselves like me feel trapped.

    I've found more reason to tell myself I would suck at the YouTube horror-reading channel idea I've been planning to do; the in thing at the moment is animated stories, and I can't animate, so I fear I'll be lost in the crowd :(

    I'm finally doing the writing I wanted to do and still getting down on myself because the first draft sucks, even though I know the purpose of a first draft is to suck. I guess once I've done it this way more than once I'll feel that way less. With short fanfics I write them sentence by sentence working through them in my head, which doesn't work with longer pieces, and the adjustment's taking time and is a bit frustrating..

    My kitchen has mice in it and I'm living on a planned overdraft with no idea how I'll ever catch back up :(

    ah. I really wish I could find a career that looks like something I could do and not have a breakdown. The stuff I have experience with and know I find fulfillment doing is all talking-to-people related and I don't have the confidence for it yet - man, I'm 22 and very awkward and haven't learned how to manage my brain stuff enough, I don't think I can teach or be responsible for people's wellbeing, and I definitely can't do full time work in care, and museum education work is very very competitive. argh. this will look a lot nicer in the morning

    ow ow ow pushed myself to cut down on distractions today so I can figure out how to function without them (good) but I haven't figured it out yet so I got anxious this morning and haven't really gotten more than a foot from self-recrimination since then (ow ow ow).

    Trying to introduce portion control. I know I'm not hungry-hungry, but the urge to go forcefeed myself until it hurts is real :(

    Reading my old abuse threads on here always makes me feel a bit weird. I’ve been here since i was 15 and despite being bitter and miserable, this is objectively the “best” and safest time of my life, where I am not actively being abused and I’m generally left alone (despite being broke and isolated) I will be moving to the russian border in a few months for school, and during that semester i will have to gain more financial independence (which I’m trying to do through finishing my novel and selling art+looking for jobs) i guess i read the old thread to remind myself of how “urgent” it is to have a safe place to move back to and not go back to my parents, but it still weirds me out. I’m very optimistic about next year, even if a little scared.

    After the 1 year buffer of school, life is just out there for me and i might finally be free, genuinely free to pursue what i want here. What a fucking wild thought

    So, turns out I'm prediabetic. With my weight and overeating problem it's not unexpected, and I know all the things I have to do to keep it controlled, which I should have been doing anyway, but it sucks that I have it and it's my fault :(

    I suspect the reason I hate myself so much is because I treat myself like shit more than the other way around. I need to make sure I remember that.

    Bones is making me feel nostalgic for something I have never had and probably never will...

    Tofu turned out to be vaguely edible to me, and now I'm getting down on myself for not being vegetarian since I technically could be even if I'd hate it.

    I wanted to try my perfume-making again as a hobby even if I can't do it as a business, but I had to throw out my supplies because they were old and leaking and the cost of materials on my favourite store site has roughly doubled since I last used it :(

    Hawkeguy struggling to complete this thought

    i have positively nothing to look forward to and tbh it's pissing me off how readily my brain accepted the stagnation and went "ok, back to the basket of horrible coping-with-boredom habits you wouldn't even write about on here"

    IIIII... dunno if this is a thing, but it occurred to me that my POCD as a teen might have stemmed from how non-sexually badly I treated my sister. I was emotionally abusive to her for years, and I wonder if the POCD was a way of my subconscious making me back off, but warning me about the wrong thing? I dunno, probably I'm being too Freudian. I do wish I could make up for how shitty I was to her though. Many of the people around me were shitty to me but that's no excuse.
