Makyris @makyris.bsky.social · 08/03/2026I hate that I get tired out of nowhere. I was doing so well earlier. But I did accomplish a good deal, just not all that I'd wanted to. Remember to give yourself credit for the things you DO accomplish! 000
Makyris @makyris.bsky.social · 02/03/2026How does one have pride when sick? This is the eternal tug of war. Self-hatred is not the answer but it is what I gravitate towards. I do not judge other people for being sick. How to give myself that same grace? 000

Makyris @makyris.bsky.social · 30/01/2026I have many dreams of being homeless.

On cold days like this I am conscious every second of how lucky I am to have a warm place to sleep. 000

Makyris @makyris.bsky.social · 04/01/2026The best way to celebrate a birthday, to me, is going out to dinner. No decorations, no singing, no presents (I know, I'm a spoil sport), just a wonderful meal that everyone gets to enjoy. It's like one's birthday is an excuse for *everyone* to get the gift of yummy noms. Mmmm! 🥰 000
