Why yes, I will retreat from all people I know and love & ignore my phone and e-mail just to come back a week later to be hyper-productive/responsive for 72 hrs before burning myself out again & there’s NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT because there’s NOTHING I CAN DO ABOUT IT EITHER
having your emotions consistently invalidated as a child & one day waking up as an adult expected to validate your own emotions in order to set boundaries & trust your feelings over everyone else’s is an extremely wild fucking experience. be gentle with yourself. you’re learning.

i cannot work a job i dont have time. everyday i need at least 2 hours to journal 3 hours to walk around and think about how i Feel and another 6 hours to daydream
