What in the my little pony, care bear, sunshine, and rainbows is this?

Do you know how exhausting it is to wear a mask 24/7 consistently? By the time you get home from your day, you're even more exhausted.

Eventually you hit a crashout.... You've completely burned out.

No more masking.

Auto pilot... need to shift into auto pilot,

Can't

There is literally nothing left.

I can't move; it's physically painful to do even basic human needs and routines.

1 day

I'm now just waking up- what has happened?

The time.. just disappeared.

I feel like I have accomplished nothing.... I wanted to do great things with myself, for myself to be able to get out of this, what you want as a social norm.

I don't like social norms. I wanted to fit in to social norms, but it's physically painful, and I disappear for a while until I can slip back in.

I need out for good

Not just for a short while and try to hide it...

I don't even care that people judge me for my weird ways.

It's the best way and the only way.

How long will this last?

Guess we'll see in time.
