Big old trigger warning re: death. Fuuuuuck 2020. Had a really cool coworker who went on a mountain biking trip over the weekend. He had a sudden brain aneurysm while biking down a mountain which obviously caused him to crash. I honestly don't know if I'm relieved that the doctors believe he was essentially brain dead before the crash basically destroyed his body.

What's the first thing you want to talk about? Though just remember I am not a doctor so can only offer advice that has worked for me.

I feel like I'm on an extreme downward spiral and I don't understand it. stop pooping in your sink! but also feel free to PM me if you just want to vent at someone. I'm apparently pretty good at listening (or reading, whatever) hang in there. poo poo is going to be crazy for a little while around here, so it might be good to schedule time away from the computer/cspam/politics poo poo. that's advice for everyone.

I know we are already pming Dolphin, but want to extend that offer to others. If you just need to vent I can listen. Can't diagnose you or therapize (that's a word shut up) you, but I can at least give you someone to talk to that has been down the mental health road a few times. It sucks in the moment, but things do get better.

I'm feeling a bit of panic as well. Doesn't help that I am currently forced to listen to a constant stream of honking from the Trump parade outside my window. It just seems like there's nowhere to go to escape racist authoritarian assholes in this country. The way people are continuing to completely gently caress up the simplest thing -- preventing a pandemic by wearing a mask and staying indoors, is mind blowing sometimes when I stop to think about it. On the one hand I just want this election to be over, but at the same time, its depressing to think that not a lot is really ever going to change in this country no matter who wins. These people exist and live everywhere and are the loud assholes in every community. sim has issued a correction as of 00:28 on Nov 2, 2020 |

Im getting a referral from my pcp to a transgender knowledgeable psychologist Ive been on adderall long enough to have organized some of my thoughts and then i said those thoughts outloud to another human that isnt my wife. Still scared that im making it all up in my head, but hopefully the thoughts-doctor can help. Thanks for being a community that empowers trans people, goons. If i wasn't posting around so many freaking awesome accepting folks i dont think i would have ever considered that i share more with y'all than a common forum

Mental health boon week: - I did a 7-panel interview and the main interviewer said "please don't work for [soandso] work for us". Today they called me and gave me a verbal offer so I'm gonna not work for [soandso] and am gonna work for them instead  - I crushed an interview with Facebook. The interviewer excitedly clapped when I got all four technical questions correct within the time limit. I am so relieved that the job above this not only pays more than Facebook but is also salaried and also not Facebook. Still really validating though - I tripped last weekend for the first time from my first grow and it was so profound that it opened up some huge epiphanies in therapy Life is good, friends

I think my dad and I are no longer on speaking terms because I said unhoused people should be treated better. I personally have no interest in trying to keep the peace. Kinda weird for your dad to tell you to gently caress off but I guess I'm glad he was clear. I really hope I can salvage my relationship with my mom and sister. I will press on.

I walked out of physical therapy today. Florida's in full OPEN'R'P mode, and in the small therapy area were 4 or 5 patients being treated by 4 therapists, myself and another patient coming in for therapy for the 9AM spot, and 3 other patients sitting waiting. So now I guess I get to decide if risking the rona is worth the use of my right arm. I hope America burns after today.

Please stay safe, everyone, no matter what the outcome of today is. Remember you don't have to watch the results, it won't change what will happen either way. Take care of yourselves first and foremost.

Usually I'm just at constant, low-ish level anxiety for a variety of personal and professional subjects but today obviously has me off the charts.

nerve posted:i yearn for the day i can type "Life is good" online. It took four years of therapy twice per week to get to a point where I can be comfortable counting my blessings without being completely overshadowed by intrusive thoughts. It's still pretty hard but at least I'm at a point where I can sometimes be thankful for positive things happening in my life without feeling like I need to be my own devil's advocate
