I wish the people in the climate thread wouldn't make fun of me for being mentally ill when I post positive climate change news.

yo in fact I'm gonna put my money where my mouth is, can you throw me a 100,000 hour probe plz to kill my internet self, did a namechange to throw lowtax 7.95 on the way out for the last couple decades of great broke-brained times

yo edit just for clarity: I'm not going to kill myself. But my mental health is better the less I'm on the internet and especially here on our dead gay climate-change lust-for-hope-death forums. So for real, plz toss that probe

And immediately after I post all that, some alt posts something I said to people in private on another site to win an internet fight. I told those people that I used to be far right because my parents were and that my parents would constantly abuse me if I didn’t act in line with their own beliefs, but I got out when I went to college and got some independence and distance. Some jackass remembers this and decides it’s great ammo to use to win an argument, because of course I still like the ideology of the people who used to hit me constantly and threaten to send me to boot camp for being disobedient/unmanly/whatever reason they had at the time. Just insanely loving petty, this site. I should just log out for good.

tfw when your friends have a lot of their own poo poo to deal with so they decide to deal with a lovely thing you did by just ignoring you for weeks on end giving credibility to that voice you've had your whole life about how everyone secretly hates you.
edit: metaphorical voice for clarity

Yeah like I get why they're pissed and also holy poo poo one of them is moving here to MA from california which has to be stressful as hell but once they're cooled off and we can all talk I seriously need to sit them down and say that this can never happen again. Not in a scolding way, not in a "you should have figured this out" way, just a judgement free "Here is how my brain works and why anything short of you literally telling me to kill myself is better than just not saying anything"

I went outside Thursday and since then I've had an intermittent rash that's been popping up on random parts of my body. First my left knee, then my right shoulder, then my stomach, then my left foot, and now the back of my neck.

Same thing happened one of the other recent times I went outside and allegedly enjoyed nature. I still have some antihistamine tablets from when I went to the doctor then, so it's been fine I guess, but ugh. Never go outside folks.

Upon reading this I googled what allergic skin reactions look like and yep that's me.

What's weird is I've lived in Minneapolis two years now and last summer I was fine. But also I live near the river instead of near a pond, so I guess maybe the immediately local flora is different. I'll bring it up with my doc.

Until then, I guess I'll just avoid the beautiful riverside parks. :(

If it makes you feel any better, I'm so hideously allergic to grass that I used to joke slipping a single blade of grass into my drink would kill me

and then I drunk a hemp milkshake

I've been dissociating pretty heavily on and off all day between this news, being sick and therefore jacked up on cold medicine, and also still adjusting to being on an antidepressant for the first time ever.

On the plus side, I'm taking an antidepressant now (my severe depression had gone completely untreated for years until last month) and start a new job on Monday after leaving a toxic work environment that was causing me intense stress and anxiety. So that's exciting.

But yeah, today has been a doozy. Been F5'ing CSPAM and crack-pinging all day.

moderately annoying

i developed anxiety, paranoia and suicidal ideation while i was employed at a place where i was alone 7 hours a day doing completely mindless work so i'd spend the whole time thinking about all of the bad things that could possibly happen to me and feeling like i should commit suicide

these were not good things for my brain to begin to associate with working and the long term effects have not been great lol
