You raised a good person

Yes, exactly this

Every time I get on BP.

This is obviously the only function of carbohydrates.

I’ve never heard this. This is phenomenal!

There is another way? 😮

I'm doing that right now!

There is an old cartoon that I like; a student puts up their hand in class "may I be excused, sir, my brain is full".

My father had problem with the new TV and called the company like several times, yelling. I was in bed, my heart rate was 109. He later had to tell me about his problem in his loud, drunk voice and I twitched, terrified. It's like a time travel to my childhood filled with abuse and constant stress.

Mean voice in your head that insults you? Do people actually have that?

It's all about finding that balance between periods and exclamation points. Maybe throw in a smiley face.

this sums me scarily well

I live in the UK. Distinct lack of racoons. It doesn't feel like squirrels would cut it. Badgers are a vague equivalent but kinda ploddy. That said, they can be pretty aggressive and have massive claws. We've recently reintroduced beavers in the UK, but I don't think there's enough of them to form an adequate defence. Oh god, this has completely thrown me. How am I going to defend my cave?!

My husband calls it Laurenland

Some of us never learned who we were because we were too busy surviving childhood. We collect Squishmallows now

The old 'I'll try again tomorrow. '

Yup!

More like allergic to life

Try hanging blackout curtains in one room then adding a bed with a fluffy blanket and TV and preventing everyone except pets from entering. Edit to add fluffy blanket, almost forgot an important step there

The correct reset for depression is a day out in sunlight.

My literal nervous habit is laughing and smiling. I do it when I meet new people or large crowds. It took therapists several years to even get to the point that they understand there was a problem and my autism diagnosis didn't happen until my late twenties, not completely because of that but in part.

Why is this post so relatable

every day, little dude :(

I cannot forgive bc I, despite all the abuse, somehow can treat people right. If I can, then everyone also can but they don't want to. They prefer to be selfish, so they don't deserve my forgiveness.

Laughed way too hard at this.

Snap!

Good going! I opted not to continue the line of insanity in my family.

No why is this so real

Yes

"something has to be wrong, its too peacefull and quiet" 🤣

I have wistful dreams of becoming a travelling adventurer but merely being out of the country on a work trip sent me into an anxiety spiral.

Book.

"with caffeine and anger, all things are possible". Words to live by.

Guilt and shame are two of my closest companions. They show up over the least little thing and eat me alive.

Yea I thought I had done that already, turns out I was wildly incorrect

A nap and a break from thinking, thank you :)

"Hi. My name is John and I'm..."

The sympathetic nervous system

Every time my boss says 'can I have a quick chat?'

Maybe do more than check for the one that's on fire.

Some of us are in over our heads.

I'm in this picture and I don't like it.

We can have a sequel called 'do you really like me?' I'm very excited for this new venture! My life will be easier

That would be tonight. Popcorn it is again!

The real question is whether other people deserve your love. The answer is no. F**k them.

Welcome to life.

Little treat? I’ll eat a whole bag of goldfish before I feel like that lmao
