I'm so frequently taken aback by the way people act in the comments section. I know I shouldn't be, by now, but I am.

It is insanely emotionally exhausting to manage my own emotional self-regulation while trying to teach my teenaged child emotional self-regulation. If you're coping with your own chronic mental illness while trying to be an emotionally present parent, I see you, and you deserve nice things. 💖🫂

When I eat chili peppers, it burns going in and coming out. But I keep eating them.

My 12 year old son explaining "aura farming" to me made me feel like I'm 3,000 years old.

I watched a recording of myself talking and apparently I say "ok" an embarrassing number of times. 😭

Sitting here crying because Facebook demonitized my page for this stupid meme. I realize how ridiculous this is. Losing half my monthly income is the rotten cherry on top of a week of bad news.

My kids have been bickering about stupid bullshit every day recently. My mom would have just grabbed a broomstick, chased us and whoever she got to first would get wacked. I don't do that.

For as long as I can remember I've seen horrible people get their way - people who are cruel, selfish, arrogant, and mean spirited.

We decided together that my husband wouldn't go back to the US for another fire season, even though it would be financially prudent, because my Spidey senses were tingling and I had a weird feeling that something bad would happen.

I thought these were fake plastic display grapes at the night market but they are real! They taste very mild and slightly floral. I've noticed a lot of fruits here have a floral note that I never encountered in the US

I work so hard to maintain my physical capabilities as I age. I wish it was like the movies where there's a video montage with exciting music. It's just a lot of slogging through the trenches... and sweat.

I got a blood pressure measurement device for home because of my white coat syndrome and I've discovered that scrolling memes lowers my blood pressure, lol. Of course I had to do this experiment 😅 I took measurements before and after for 6 days. Just a funny case study...

Nice little mental health walk on the beach. Much more enjoyable than walking on the treadmill. We walked 6 miles, but it felt very easy and it was overcast most of the time.

Trying to do family activities with a teenager and a preteen is like trying to herd cats. They're always going in different directions and when you finally corral them together there's usually some hissing involved.

My blood pressure was so high today they said they might have to admit me to the hospital. I kept saying I have white coat syndrome, no one listened. They kept checking and rechecking while I was visibly crying with frustration. It was higher each time. I have to go back tomorrow to try again. 😭

I know that White Coat Syndrome is commonly understood, I just don't understand why so many medical professionals I've had to interact with seem to completely dismiss my anxiety like I'm just being silly.

Are you routinely convinced that everyone secretly hates you and is merely tolerating you for reasons you don't understand? Why does my mind hate me 😭

One thing the internet has taught me is that there are a lot of miserable people who seem motivated solely to share their misery with others. People often say "it's just bots," but bots are programmed by someone or some people.

Just pondering how weird it is to have a complicated relationship with your mom. The child part of you will always want a mom you can run to for help or comfort but the grown up part of you knows you won't get what you're seeking from her. So that need just stays frozen inside of you.

I stupidly thought that I would eventually reach an age where I no longer developed giant zits on my forehead. Yet here I am, in my 40s, with a giant forehead zit *and* wrinkles. 👍🫩

I did too much stuff yesterday and now my brain is fried. I'm noticing how depressed I feel when I'm overtired and I expended too much energy masking my autism.

Sharing children with someone who does not financially contribute to their existence and sees them 4 times a year, whenever it's convenient to them, but who also acts like your children are somehow their possession is exhausting.
