Ahhh, same! ; 3; I'm glad my bestie is on here so I can at least chat with her a little bit. I also try to add comments to random topics... but it's so hard when you're introverted!

I'm so tired of artist's block!

I would love SO MUCH to be able to express myself creatively again... but it feels like when I try, there's nothing there. I have a million ideas bouncing around in my mind, but when I try to put them down on 'paper' it is just a jumbled mess and I end up getting more stressed.

I want to draw a million different pictures of our OCs, or fanart, or anything... but nope, I go to draw and I can't even think of a pose idea. I search through poses and not a single one speaks to me...

I want to write, to start up the sequel to my fanfic, to start up a fanfic for another fandom... but nope, I go to write and the words are a jumbled mess. I don't know where to start, or where to go. Usually the words just... flow freely, like the characters are writing themselves, but right now it seems like they've all taken a vacation.

I want to play with our dolls, to do their face-ups and take pictures of them, or sew... but nope, I look over at them and it just makes me tired. I love them, they're all beautiful... but I feel really detached right now. There's so many projects that need doing but I just... don't have it in me.

Uggggh creative blocks are so frustrating!
Posted in Depression / Anxiety Posted 7 years ago
Well, for me, depression is a symptom of another mental illness, bpd. So I tend to swing into it and then back out rapidly, as in... I could be seriously depressed and wanting to end my life and then hours later be excited and cuddling my spouse. The depression I do have, though, tends to be intense, as people with bpd are highly emotional. (I heard a reference one saying that our emotions are like a 3rd degree burn... any sort of pain is incredibly horrible.)

A lot of what I do is a part of DBT therapy. DBT is a very good practice, imo, so you should consider looking into it. There's websites and videos on youtube for it. It was designed for BPD, but it's actually really good for everyone!

One of the biggest points in DBT is self-acceptance. Accepting that your feelings are valid, no matter what the situation. So if you are depressed, that is valid, even if you think you're being stupid or silly. No feelings are stupid or silly, ever. That helps me to cope, because often when I am depressed I'll think I'm being dumb... which makes it worse x:

Other than that, I like to remind myself that the depression is only temporary and it's not going to last forever. So while I feel awful in the moment, I know that I will be able to move past that.

Stimming also helps, using textures and sounds, as well as flavors. I like to eat really sour things, it brings me back to reality. Petting animals as well.

The most important thing, though, is medication. I wouldn't be able to survive without my meds... I went too many years unmedicated and I'm surprised I'm still here today, tbh.

Haha, yeah... I really hate the joker, so that would never happen. ^^
Posted in i just made a twitter Posted 7 years ago
Twitter is one of the few 'bigger' social media sites I have never really been interested in. I have an account, but I never use it. I kind of just... never really know what to say, I guess?

It's a little sad, because a lot of my faves have twitters and use them often. But I just go to their pages and check them, haha!
Posted in What type of showers do you like? Posted 7 years ago
I prefer pretty hot ones, since I have a lot of aches and it really helps out. I'm also almost always sitting, since we got a shower seat ^^
