      If you were an adult, I’d tell you to go to the ABC with this clusterfuck. Save it for when you’re safe, though, this crap needs to be exposed ugh.

      I’m glad you’re feeling better and safer. I hope things keep improving for you! You’re incredibly kind and smart :)

    I could wear make-up and curl my hair,
    Commence my glow-up and start to care,
    I’d colour myself amongst the rainbow,
    But what for and why? I don’t know.

    I want to be pretty like the girls on the net,
    But I feel quite petty when my eyes set
    Upon my face and the way it exists.
    But what for and why? It just is.

    Is it the web that makes me feel so bad?
    All the cute girls on the street, I feel so sad.
    I’m sure if I tried, I’d look like a queen,
    But what for and why, so I could be seen?

    I don’t crave attention, I’ll promise you that,
    I like staying home with my coffee and cat,
    Should I do it for me, and try to be pretty?
    But what for and why? Now I sound petty.

    Every nerve is fried. My heart is beating so fast, and the nerves in my neck twinge. I teleport around the apartment, quantum, fleeting. Electricity courses through my body in waves.

    SNRI withdrawal is wild. 3/10, do not recommend. (A 3, because sometimes it feels like my brain is in freefall and it’s almost pleasant).

    I’ll be fine, I have the meds now. The woes of executive dysfunction and supporting a local pharmacy that closes on Sundays. 🤦‍♀️

    My one last morning volunteer shift is tomorrow, so up at 4am, off at 6am, start at 8am, finish at 12pm, should be home by 2ish-pm. Rest. Cleanup Wednesday in prep for MIL visit from Perth. Then TAFE on Thursday and Friday.

    This turned into a ramble. Enjoy lol

      SNRI withdrawal rates 0/10 in my books. I remember having constant brain zaps and feeling like a completely out of control bag of volatile emotions. Probably nothing about it felt good because it fucked up work so badly. Hope you manage to get back on track asap. I would risk going to a chain pharmacy to avoid SNRI withdrawals in the future…

      Hope you feel better ❤️ I’ve had the “brain zaps” before and it was super unpleasant.

        Ty 💜💜💜 It’s not my favourite experience, that’s for sure. Not even in my Top 50.

        But least it isn’t painful, just unpleasant as you said

      Sorry for how you’re feeling. I’ve heard withdrawal symptoms can be awful.

      I hope you feel better soon!

        It’s ok, turns out they were too distracted by the typo in their own message to notice me yelling at them.

    woke up at one point last night on my side, knees at a 90 degree angle with a pillow in between, feet resting on the spaces between the ball and heels and fingers interlocked. Ontop of this rain was pelting the brick wall behind my head and I have to say it was the most comfortable I’ve been in a LONG time.
