I will never get tire of saying this to you... I am so happy that I found you, because like me, you post about your real life, and not a fake, performative, curated, surface-level, superficial, contrived and inauthentic life. Keep up the excellent work my friend. 👍

Thank you so much for sharing that with me. Ever since I was diagnosed in my mid 30s, I've been trying to connect with people like me, because my childhood was hard, when it came to the violent intrusive thoughts and images, and I want to meet people who know exactly what OCD feels like.

I was born in the Dominican Republic so I had to look up what Mexicans call menudo and to my surprise we call it mondongo Not growing up in the island and being a picky eater the first time that I had it I was around 10 year old It was weird at first but now I love it Who knows, they might like it 🤞🏾

Well, today I saw my #Shrink, and like always, we had a great chat, plus he sent the refill for my anxiety medication. I've been 2 days without it, and I've been through 2 days of fucked up crazy #HarmOCD and #Anxiety spikes. If I'm going to take the med daily... Right now, that's debatable.

Wow! This is such a great idea 👍🏾, but I'm disappointed that I don't live in the area.

Tony Tone Vega @tonytonevega.com · 31/08/2026

Not being diagnosed with #HarmOCD until my mid 30's, not only created such a fucked up mentally traumatic experience for me, but now is hard for me let go of the what ifs? #MentalHealth #MentalHealthAwareness #HarmOCD #OCD #Anxiety #HyperAnxiety #OCDepisode #RacingThoughts #OCDattack #OCDspike.

For people who don't know what #HarmOCD and #Anxiety feels like, and how fucked up and worried I feel right now, even after taking my #CrazyMeds, is easy to say "Just relax". It's so bad right now, that I had to make an appointment with my #Shrink for tomorrow. #MentalHealth #MentalHealthAwareness

Some people think that it is so fucking easy to deal with my fucking #HarmOCD #violent #intrusive #thoughts and violent intrusive #images, but it's not. Dealing with this shit since I was a #child hasn't been fucking easy at all. Getting diagnosed in my mid-30s helped, but I'm still dealing with it.

Checked the next 7 day #Schedule on #Hallmark after watching for years, and the lack of real diversity is glaring. Once you learn to spot the formula and the hollow #PR, you see it everywhere. Same old playbook, different year. 📺📉 #HallmarkChannel #MediaCritique #Representation #NoDiversity

Tony Tone Vega @tonytonevega.com · 26/08/2026

Growing up on 80s TV, you didn't need a script to know non-white characters were playing the villains or dying first. Hollywood's racist tropes made it predictable every time. Once you see the pattern, you never unsee it. 📺📉 #Hollywood #MediaRepresentation #FilmHistory #HallmarkChannel

I'm 56 years old, married for 39 years, with 2 adult kids, 2 grandkids, a full time job, born with multiple mental disorders, take crazy meds, see my shrink monthly, sober problem drinker, have been working since the age of 15, when I dropped out high school... And honestly... I'm fucking tired.

Tony Tone Vega @tonytonevega.com · 19/08/2026

That is so right. Each relapse is worse that the previous one.

My wife, my 36 year old daughter, my son in law, my 31 year old son, my daughter in law, my 3 year old grandson or my 1 year old granddaughter could be just taking a nap, and I have to keep checking up on them, just to make sure that they are breathing. That's what being born with #HarmOCD is like.

Harm OCD attacks can pull me into a loop of fear, doubt, and what-ifs. A single intrusive thought can take over my attention, leaving me questioning myself long after it appears. It's exhausting, frustrating, and often invisible to everyone else. #OCD #MentalHealth #HarmOCD #Anxiety #Thoughts

Living with #HarmOCD as a child, was fucking horrible. Being diagnosed in my 30's and knowing that I wasn't crazy... Not that there's anything wrong with it 🤣 , was a relief. Learning how to cope with it, and taking my #CrazyMeds... It's something else. But at least, I have a name for my symptoms.

For people who don't know what it's like being born with #HarmOCD: an OCD attack makes you a prisoner in your own mind, guarding what you love most from an invisible war. #OCDAttack #HarmOCD #IntrusiveThoughts #OCDSpike #MentalHealth #InvisibleIllness #TonyKeepsItReal

It's fucked up, how my #HarmOCD changed themes again. Now, it got me worrying like crazy about my #Grandkids, and my #Anxiety and the violent intrusive thoughts and images, have been driving me fucking crazy for the past couple of months. I told my #shrink, but there's no magic pill. #MentalHealth

I'm 56 years old, and I've been living in the same #NYC block and in the same building since I was 9 years old... you do the math... and honestly, FOR YEARS, I've been wondering if we were living in the wild wild west. Motorcycles, mopeds, E-bikes, E-scooters riding on the sidewalk. Again... YEARS!

The problem is, that the government, all across the board and all across the country, should stop calculating what people make before taxes, and look at the small checks that they are actually taking home to pay high rents, food and clothing for the entire family.

Good morning and happy Tuesday to all my fellow #crazies of #Bluesky. Depending where you are on this rock we call home... #GoodMorning, #GoodAfternoon, #GoodEvening or #GoodNight. I'm at the #SaltMines ready to start a new crazy day, but before all is said and done, I have to take my #CrazyMeds. 👍🏾

To all my fellow #crazies out there: wrapping up another day. Remember, #Fuck the noise, fuck the drama, and fuck the #Bullshit. I'm signing off for the night. Time to rest up and get ready to hustle again tomorrow. Keep it real. #TonyKeepsItReal #RealLife #Life #GoodNight #FuckIt

More news my friends. We just found out, that they lied to the police officers. The girl That was on the passanger seat and was sober, told the cops, that she was the driver,and they believed her. I called the precinct and told them about the video, that it shows him coming from the driver side.

The latest news is, that the guy that was driving the car, was not the owner and not on the insurance policy. I have full coverage but since the damage was minor in the back I'm not going to file with my insurance, bec my rate will go up. 3 of my friends only had limited liability. 😔

That's what we all have been saying, he has some connections inside, and I though about the same thing you mentioned getting his info from the police report and or the license plate. I just hope, that the attorney general gets involved, or I will file a formal complaint to her office.
