Honey, this is your depression acting up again. Talk to your therapist, please. We can’t give you the help you need. You are beautiful and loved, and please, take some time for self care. It does wonders for ones mental health.

And what does that mean?

In lay terms, without referring to graphics, what does that mean? ELI5, please? People keep saying left and right like it means something.

The circus is the US. The ringmaster is in DC. We all live in the circus, surrounded by clowns and lions, but if you set the tarp on fire, we all burn. We need a new circus.

And yet, it wasn’t explained how Democrats are conservatives, whatever that means. I just hear Republicans are conservative, now this one rando is saying Dems are conservative, what does that even mean, anymore? What does democrat or republican mean if they are being accused of being the same? How are they the same?

Elaborate, please? How are Democrats Republicans, and if they aren’t, what is the difference? I genuinely don’t understand.

Why? Shit floats.

While I consider dude a gender neutral term, if someone asked me to stop calling them dude, I would, as it is respectful to them.

Today I learned a thing about myself. It’s probably why I get so locked down, waiting for some scheduled event. Like if I have a thing at 3 pm, I can’t start anything else, cuz I might leave it half done.

Or wanting to start things like a Pathfinder campaign with my kids or game dev. I don’t know how to start.

Just goes to show you, I don’t know how to take pictures!

I’ve been out for a week-ish. I chose it a few days ago. Again, I’m self-aware enough to know to give it some time, I guess I was just wondering if it goes away.

It’s been little over a week lol. I kinda know I’m jumping the gun a bit, I just want my brain to get on to the same page that I just wanna be me, dammit.

Well, for starters, id probably come clean about starting hormones to your SO. Honesty being the best policy aside, they could help you look out for mood swings and stuff you may not notice on your own.

You did handle it well with your kid. Sometimes they get lazy and just reach for the nearest thing to do their chores, cuz they just wanna get it over with. You know how it is, we were both kids once, and I’ve got three little assholes of my own to deal with, lol. They mean well. They tried to get the chores done, after all, instead of neglecting it.

Like you told me, just take it one day, one hour, one minute at a time if you have to. Take some time to evaluate your emotions, and see if it’s worth the energy you are putting into it. I’m glad you recognized it as a mistake, instead of maliciousness. Good luck and Godspeed on your journey. o7
