What's Bothering You?
- Thread starter Oblivia
- Start date
(but found it eventually) very stressful time...
this is a mood. I'm super quiet and sensitive as well, and it's a tough combo. You reach out to people, which takes what feels like a herculean effort, and sometimes they just don't respond. That hurts a lot, especially if you're extra sensitive to perceived rejection (which I definitely am). It's super hard to want to try again after stuff like that happens, at least for me.
I try to remind myself that it's not really about me, and that they probably didn't even notice they upset me- unfortunately, a lot of people in this world are not great listeners, so I'll have to repeat myself or say it a little louder. A lot of times it doesn't feel worth it to me to put that effort in, but sometimes it's important stuff, so I'm more willing to raise my voice.
ps. i notice you and your resident rep with that iconic outfit! you're not invisible

There's definitely value in talking less and listening more - I hate that society paints being quiet as a bad thing! keep doing you

the quiet thing still stands - don't feel like you have to change your style to suit others' expectations. I was told I was "too quiet" all the time growing up. When i was in my first leadership-type role (RA in a hectic, large dorm), I thought I had to be loud to get my point across, and become an extrovert or whatever, but that didn't end up being the truth. My residents responded the most when I was the most genuine - which, for me, meant quiet, calm, and steady rather than super loud and outgoing. You don't have to be loud, you just have to be you, as cheesy and dumb as I'm sure that sounds.
My university stuff has been postponed so now I have to work even longer (till the second half of July) before I will finally have a break, and can do things like play animal crossing properly again. I have zero motivation left, no, honestly, I have negative motivation. But if I work a lot now maybe I'll finish a bit earlier? Let's hope so. Also I will definitely fail a few subjects so it feels kind of futile anyway but I really hope I keep up some motivation to at least try.
I feel a bit pointless even though today has a been a bit great so far.
Edit: Don’t you hate it when people posts photos about you without permission? I checked my group chat after 3 weeks and they posted a friggin photo of me without permission, I’m a bit angry and they‘ve done it several real friggin times even though I told them not to. Jeez.

Wow I can't believe my stupid brain sometimes. Like one day it's like "hey let's sleep for 14 hours today" and then days like today it's like "oh you wanted to sleep?? Haha u thot" and I'm essentially awake for 24+ hours.
So basically I still have a headache and now even my stomach feels weird, but I can't go to sleep now cause I have to make sure I feed my dog and take him out when he's used to doing so.
Depression is such a horrible thing.

If you ever want to rant you're more than welcome to message me.
Had the worst sleep. Went to bed at a reasonable hour, then kept waking up every hour between 10pm-7am with the type of nightmares that have you jolt upright in bed. I can't remember what any of them were about except that they were perfectly normal dreams until the last moment. Finally slept normally between 7-11am, but feel crap for it. Doesn't help it's put me behind on things I wanted to today too - had wanted to scrub a 200 litre fish tank before it got too hot in the day. Fun afternoon ahead!
When people complain about stuff IRL then they get angry because you genuinely ask "Why?" Like okay don't open your mouth then lol

Certain millenials for you :/ Sad times.
I create content related to skincare for another website. Some of those products contain coal. I've never photographed them actually on my face for this reason.

My computer is doing that stupid thing again where if I dont manually put it into sleep mode through the start menu then it will just stay awake all the time and waste power. Idk why, when or how it decides to stop going into sleep mode when I tell it to but it's getting annoying -__-
Yeah, but people yell at series rather than actual issues, I think it was just a bad example they brought up that people yell at. Unless they would deliberately use blackface (or anything else racist) I'd leave it. Plus old ladies do face masks all the time. I mean if you're intelligent enough to put on a TV or find a streaming service one should be able to tell between satire and aimed racist stuff.
Though yeah that might not be a good idea, but honestly at long as people don't do it with large red lips and like cornrow braids I guess.

I scheduled my therapy appointment for next week because I'm really busy this week.
Of course things have progressed so I'm super stressed out and probably won't enjoy my day off fully. Now I'm half regretting that I didn't set it for this week even if I had to rush to make the appointment time.
Idk man feelings ****ing suck sometimes.
