I have to start writing again eventually
Maybe I’ll try to make it more aesthetically pleasing
Something about computer screens makes me hate my work
Not really hate it. But
I don’t know
My therapist gave me something called the gaslighting workbook
To try to learn how to trust myself again
I haven’t started it
I’m worried I’ve lied to him and convinced him that I was the victim when really I’m the one that keeps going around causing problems for everyone
But I’m trying to remember to stop after the words
“I’m worried”
Sometimes I feel stuck in here. Since lockdown, I’ve been locked down.
Not ideal for mental health or stability.
Caffeine makes me sweaty why do I keep drinking it
Makes the anxiety worse, too
The lowkey daily paranoia has become too major a part of my life
Time to cut back
There’s some herb that’s supposed to make the process slightly less shitty
I keep thinking drinking caffeine is self-harm
For someone who has what I have
If you haven’t looked into ADHD in girls and women, now is the time
*aside from medical themes, I will not use gendered language in my writing. Please someone hold me accountable
But IF I’m going to call myself a writer, I suppose I’d better start writing
One of my previous mentors noticed I was a big writer, but that was only a few weeks out of the year (and it was 5 years ago). She was right though, I really fly when I start getting words out.
I don’t like talking anymore. I never liked it before, but everyone thought it was weird so I became a talker. But talking makes me weird. Just let me write
Here’s the pathetic thing: I started questioning myself more when my stupid account got banned. I didn’t realize how much I appreciated the validation of thousands of strangers. That’s unhealthy.
But I made another account, this time I’m going to use it for this (reading writing)
I hope I can re-find all the awesome mutuals I had
I submitted an appeal but it was a stupid mistake, my bad
Musicians, thinkers, spiritualists, mentally ill baddies, witchtok, leftists
Sending my love to all artists
My hair is different from when I had the old account. Xox
