They are real living organisms which I have taken responsibility for. I may not be very good at looking after them but I am the best/all they have.
Taken myself off the pills, they were doing more harm than good. Cold turkey is probably not the best way to go about it, but it's all I can manage, which is because of the pills. Curious what withdrawal's going to be like this time. So far I've had a couple hits of "all the emotions at once, for no reason" which is one of my favourites. It's always fun seeing what my brain latches on to as definitely the reason these feels are happening, yes. Plants need watering.
I was just brought to tears over this: I am not unusually invested in Homestuck's financial success. I'm so happy. Still haven't watered my plants.
