#maple talks

Bc literally. Two days ago I was falling asleep and it came to me like an angel descending and I was like "I'll remember in the morning" and then I did it. And then the same thing happened last night. And then I was just taking a shower and remembered it again so now I CAN YAP

Okay so it's not like super bad dyslexia, and Leo doesn't actually know he has it, but reading has always been a little harder for him than his brothers (well... Maybe except for Raph —) so he just avoids reading anything longer than text messages. Which is why he likes comics so much.

It's the only story type thing he can read without fighting for his life, the fonts tend to be more dyslexia friendly, and all the text is in small bubbles that separate sentences/paragraphs/etc from each other.

It's why he's so good at strategy and chess and things too, because he physically thinks differently than everyone else, he thinks more in 3D and probably learned to read people better than text because he spent less time reading type and more time looking at people to figure out what they wanted

Probably because I love drawing and the beans dont take a lot of time to draw, most are done within 30 min, and they are my fave critters!Eons and fox mons are my faves and it is a reason I only do those and not every pokemon in existence, some do try to ask tho, but those asks just get deleted.

They also arent as detailed as a full on drawing. I just have fun with the designs and every nice comment and tags just fuel the fire to continue haha

I take enough break between drawing sessions, so dont worry ^^

Would anyone care if i made individual stickers of the lmk cafe drinks and food?

I run all that through redbubble btw

Hihi! You can call me Maple! We're gonna be best friends <3

hello all! i recently underwent some psychological testing following an inpatient stay. the testing was to see if there was something we had missed in the past that could help guide us to more effective treatment. i don't want to divulge everything about my medical history here, but the background is that i was given the dx of bpd traits at 16 and a full bpd diagnosis at 18. now i am 21, and my new psychologist thinks that instead of bpd i could have avoidant and schizotypal personality traits. that was honestly a surprise, but upon doing research, i can see what she means.

as i have run this blog for 5 years, i felt it was only fair to update you all on this. i've believed thoroughly that i had bpd during that time. i know that labels really don't mean much. two different psychologists can give you the same tests and interpret them very differently. this does not invalidate everything i've done on this blog, but it's still very jarring. i feel like i have to apologize almost, even though i've done nothing wrong.

hopefully though, this does lead to breakthroughs in my recovery.

much love,

Well I kinda let this blog die like all the others so lets go to explaining some things.
