I Don't Know What to Put Here

You're always welcome here!!! 💯🌈❤️❤️🫂🫂

Today’s advice from your Goth Auntie

Pre-menstrual depression is always depicted as like "He He! I had a box of icecream bars and cried while watching the Titanic!" But in reality, it's more like, "I'm standing the edge of an abyss. There is nothing good inside of me, I'm filled with rage and desperation."

This has already been said in the notes, but if PMS causes extreme depression and even suicidal ideation, that is in fact something that most people do not experience and it can be treated

I went to my doctor after I was walking to work one morning and saw a bus coming and actually took a step to throw myself in front of it before I pulled myself together. Later that day I started bleeding and was literally like someone flipped a switch and I didn't feel suicidal anymore. Which made me feel like I was loosing my mind because who goes from 'I want to throw myself in front of a bus' to 'I'm perfectly fine' just like that? I did some research, I went to the doctor and described my feelings, he looked me in the eye and gently asked what I thought it was, I said I'd read about PMDD and I thought it might be that, he said 'I think so too' and wrote a prescription.

ALSO! If you start having those feelings and suspect you’re heading towards perimenopause, talk to your doctor.

once my therapist said I used very uncommon and creative phrases and adjectives and i just did not have the heart to tell that Old Lady From A Foreign Small Town that I was translating tumblr speech into our language. so I was like yeah... must be from the books I read...

Me: "I am getting a good grade in patient, which is normal to want and possible to achive."

Me: "I want to get a good grade in therapy, which is normal to want and possible to achieve."

oh this is extremely fun. i did NOT do all that well but i can see myself getting good. i will be doing this regularly.

Oh VERY cool! I was pretty good with pieces from the Americas, Europe, and Mediterranean, okay with Africa, and not very good at Asia... fascinating.

This was neat!
