the human mind is a battleground of base drives; for sex, food, status &c &c. but the most primal and powerful drive is the drive to be miserable

it feels like most therapists its had are just working off a script. after a few months it just starts feeling like talking to an LLM

it's vaguely horrifying how much hairier its legs got after trying nandrolone for 3 weeks (for shits and giggles) but it also isn't actually bothered it thinks, which is neat

people do realise that running a gimmick twitter account roleplaying an esoteric chaser reinterpretation of a minor character from a niche lesbian mecha romance visual novel written by a trans woman for half a decade isn't a particularly cisgender thing, right

is it because its a boring person? unstimulating and uninteresting and lacking some kind of shininess?

the problem with traditional wisdom/practice is that it's really easy to fuck it up because you don't have a goddamn clue why it works. its mother has been adding vinegar and baking soda to washing loads at the same time for odor removal, which is pointless

it is getting a little bit sick of being repeatedly discarded but it's not like it hasn't made its share of unkind relationship choices. the wheel turns and such

it thinks it might be nice to stop looking past obvious avoidant tendencies it really can't do this shit again

yknow though, this time it's realized that it's really not any less capable of productivity and personal development than the peers it admires because of its adhd or some other inherent defect. it's mainly depression and shame that keep fucking with its rate of progress

oh oops it expected to be emotionally wrecked today but it didn't expect it to be about its hobbies and interests. old reliable

like. other people struggle to stay on task and prioritize stuff. other people cycle interests and struggle to stay motivated. the difference it's been observing now is in that setbacks and failure aren't enough to tip them over into crying in bed for days, which, it's probably fixable!

how do you tell where the line is between there being something wrong with your behavior and something wrong with other people's behavior

is it just too much or something? it cant hold anything together whether it gives a light touch or leans in harder. nothing makes a difference

increasingly gripped by the feeling that its life ended at the start of the year and everything since has been some kind of something it doesn't know what

in retrospect, yknow, it was seriously struggling at this point, but everything has gone so far downhill since then that its really not sure it should keep trying
