YOU - That's sad. LIMBIC SYSTEM - Yes, it is. And you drowned in that sadness a long time ago. YOU - What do you mean, “drowned”? LIMBIC SYSTEM - You lost.

Morning folks! See if you can pop into a bookshop today, even if it’s just to buy eight or nine hardback books

Most of the talk about forgiveness and restoration is really about convenience. You don't want the hassle of kicking the sex pest out of your spaces, you don't want the Inconvenience of having to find a new video games youtuber to watch, so the onus is placed on people who have been hurt to forgive.

Maybe it’s keeping me more in the moment. Can’t go on rumination spirals for hours if every few minutes there’s a big ol’ noise to snap you out of it

Thinking about enjoying the last of the year’s sun and warmth in the garden? Considering opening a window to enjoy birdsong and fresh air? Not any more you’re not.

I will keep everything crossed that Santa can come through 🤞🤞🤞 I was resigned to not playing it at all until the surprise switch two was sprung on me. I will in the meantime endeavour to keep actual spoilers to a minimum!

Yespls! I’ve been prospecting dream islands but not hitting ore veins as reliably as I’d like

I’ve finished the main story but there is so much game left. I see this becoming a prevailing fixation for a long while yet.

Mia @miavee.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

I knew early on in Pokopia I wanted to keep resource extraction to dream islands as much as possible to preserve the environment. I would, however, strip-mine Eden itself for a single fragment of Pokémetal.

I’m aware that a full-choir concert may be a bit too much even by the time it gets here but it’s still wonderful to be back where I belong for regular rehearsals again

190

Mia @miavee.bsky.social · 16/09/2026

First rehearsal back at choir last night was pleasant and manageable. Still some very difficult and complicated emotions tied up with it, and my voice still isn’t the same after [ward incident] but it’s in better nick than expected. Also our next concert is entirely spooky Halloween tunes/vibes

I guess there’s a less healthy framing here of sacrificing sleep for video games but that’s only naughty if we do it at night. If it’s in the morning it’s industrious.

081

Mia @miavee.bsky.social · 15/09/2026

Maybe sleep meds will matter less than I thought for maintaining a more normalised circadian rhythm. I’ve never been good at getting out of bed but now if I wake up a couple of hours before my alarms I just have to remember Pokopia and I’m springing to my feet like Grandpa Joe.

Mia @miavee.bsky.social · 14/09/2026

I knew the first three months out were significantly higher risk, stands to reason that this peaks at an earlier stage. Damn. I want to believe it’ll be fine and I can cope without. But I’m on the cusp of having a healthy sleep cycle and they want to plummet me back into insomnia.

Mia @miavee.bsky.social · 14/09/2026

I do not think I could survive a third act of this crisis cycle. Four days after discharge is not an appropriate time to start destabilising the patient for funsies.

Mia @miavee.bsky.social · 14/09/2026

If I was being irresponsible with them or asking for a long term script that’d be one thing. I dunno man. They want you to recover but they actively remove the tools you need to do so.

131

Mia @miavee.bsky.social · 14/09/2026

Trying to get a week of Zopiclone so you don’t fall back into the crisis you’ve only just gotten out of and being treated like you just walked into A&E with a stubbed toe and demanded a year’s supply of fentanyl.

Mia @miavee.bsky.social · 14/09/2026

When a medication works for me without side effects, it’s addictive and CMHT won’t prescribe it even if it keeps me out of crisis. When a medication only does half-measures of what it’s supposed to and causes side effects/withdrawal symptoms, CMHT knows best and I must keep taking it.

141

Mia @miavee.bsky.social · 13/09/2026

I will be doing out-of-t'house things the next three days and tbh the first 48 hours I was so spaced out and overwhelmed by familiarity I'd have been bumbling around the real world like Mr Burns after his routine medical procedures.

Crazy colours actually inspired this ask, tried one today and was very underwhelmed by results. This could be other factors too, it took a while to find the Directions shades that worked for me. Will try different shades from them but their UV Pink just didn’t stay at all for me.

110

Mia @miavee.bsky.social · 12/09/2026

I’m entirely prepared to remain loyal to Directions, but am curious about other options

220

Mia @miavee.bsky.social · 12/09/2026

For example Arctic Fox are about 4x the price of Directions, which seems wild for bright unnatural shades as they’re gonna wash out eventually. I also hear Splat is advised against because of staining or colours not looking as expected.

120

Mia @miavee.bsky.social · 12/09/2026

Bright haired folks who dye at home, what brands do you recommend? I’ve been loyal to Directions since my teens but am tempted to try others especially if they’re have longevity (but I know brights are always gonna fade fast)

Mia @miavee.bsky.social · 12/09/2026

I give it maybe three more days before the novelty of freedom wears off and I’m once again salty about the mundanities of being alive.

Mia @miavee.bsky.social · 12/09/2026

Much like at the hospital, I am bedevilled by parakeets first thing in the morning. Unlike at the hospital, I can go outside to finish reading a novel with a coffee in the sun. No alarms, no screaming, just birds and the occasional giggle from next door’s toddler.

Mia @miavee.bsky.social · 11/09/2026

Brain just reminded me that one of the first things I did this year was accidentally break a mirror. That’s gonna stick with me for a while actually. Oof.

Mia @miavee.bsky.social · 11/09/2026

The lack of torches shone directly at my eyes while sleeping is a privilege I promise never to take for granted again. Although on my previous ward it was 50/50 whether it was torches or turning on the big light suddenly for night checks. Heinous. Startle response did not care for that at all.

Oh my god double bed, fitted sheets, natural fibres, multiple pillows. That first night back in your own bed feeling makes the two months of brain jail hell almost worth it.

I have no specific plan in place yet but I absolutely need to see it as a priority. It might in fact be crucial to my mental health recovery.

120

Mia @miavee.bsky.social · 09/09/2026

My horrible goblin brain considered ordering half a dozen shots just for the bit. I feel my ability to resist intrusive thoughts like that should count towards my final grade when I get booted out home tomorrow.

140

Mia @miavee.bsky.social · 09/09/2026

The place I wanted to go for lunch today was closed so I went to my fallback option, which is a pub. One of the ward clinical psychologists was there and even though I had broken no rules or conditions of going off-ward, I have never ordered a soft drink so loudly in my life.

I SWORE TO YOU AND @supergraffiti.bsky.social I WOULD MAKE IT OUT SO WE COULD SUMMIT A PEAK AND BY GOLLY I CAN DELIVER AT LEAST ONE OF THESE THINGS

Mia @miavee.bsky.social · 09/09/2026

I would gladly accept every ounce and more back if it meant the trauma and loss of the past year-and-a-bit never happened. At least once I’m out of here I won’t be getting weighed every week. I would prefer not to know numbers especially while my focus needs to be on getting better.

080

Mia @miavee.bsky.social · 09/09/2026

As my weight had been pretty stable for most of the past decade I’ve also built up a wardrobe I am very fond of and would rather not have to replace or adjust some of the pieces I love. Finding trousers that fit is a ‘mare. That’s the closest I’m getting to indulging feelings of vanity here.

131

Mia @miavee.bsky.social · 09/09/2026

Smaller =/= healthier in this case. Since I started to actually feel a bit better mentally the past couple of weeks, the loss has plateaued. I know, for me, that’s a positive sign. But I cannot shake the programmed voice telling me it’s such a shame the numbers stopped going down.

110

Mia @miavee.bsky.social · 09/09/2026

An inappropriately-prescribed MH medication many years ago made me gain a lot very quickly and did something to my metabolism that made it much harder to lose weight intentionally, even after coming off it. I would not have minded this if the med had worked. But should never have been on it.

120

Mia @miavee.bsky.social · 09/09/2026

(CW: weight) it is complicated-feelings-o’clock about accidentally losing the most weight I have lost as an adult. Being seen a little more favourably by society is not worth the life-threatening illness relapse Glad to have a lot of people around me who know better than to praise this development

270

Mia @miavee.bsky.social · 09/09/2026

Obvs not a guarantee that CMHT will live up to their promises but I feel like I have more agency and persistence than I have before. I wish it didn’t take so much effort on the part of the patient to get the basics of follow up care, but I feel more equipped at least

120

Mia @miavee.bsky.social · 09/09/2026

Thank you, and yes I learned from last time what some of the potential pitfalls are post-discharge so I was rigorous in the planning meeting yesterday. I’d rather be seen as pushy and annoying than let myself slip through the cracks of this system again.

220

Mia @miavee.bsky.social · 08/09/2026

Yeah I’m going home on Thursday! Relieved, scared, hopeful, intimidated, so many feelings.

Mia @miavee.bsky.social · 08/09/2026

Or maybe it helped, idk, I’ve not exactly been a font of levity so perhaps jokes worked in my favour
