Note to self: Even if stuff is horrid, you can ask for help. Good Hoomans exist and they want to tell you about Good Doggos.

Trying hard to think about dogs instead of horrible things. Tell me about a thing a dog you know did one time?

@mossgreenmonkey @GooberWins @Autistic_Lia YES!

@Autistic_Lia I WOULD BE A DEVOTED LISTENER

I’m sure this is a random receptionist/billing thing. But in my imagination, it’s funny to think of my therapist letting my insurance company know what we talk about each week.

[*nom de tweet* @NomTweet]

Apropos of nothing… for insurance, sometimes my therapy visits are coded “major depressive disorder” and sometimes “generalized anxiety disorder”.

[*nom de tweet* @NomTweet]

Haven’t seen “PTSD” in awhile.

@WerewolfExec @KariDru EXACTLY

Triggers are stoopid #fuckptsd

@OctopusGallery @snowdenbecker @UrsulaV Gah - I did not know about the ruffles! What do they do!? *commences google rabbit hole*

@UrsulaV UGH MARCH IS SO FAR AWAY

Plenty of training to do. But… he’s decided to keep an eye on me. I’m so frickin grateful. The earnest concern is something I couldn’t train. We’ll figure out the details.

HelperGoodBoy’s training is a lil slow on being ready for public access (distractable adolescent friendly sniffy boy)…

But.

He’s decided to take on looking after me. He’s noticing when I’m not ok. I panic, he sits right next to me and leans into me.

[*nom de tweet* @NomTweet]

He’s a doggy. He’s a year old. He’s allowed to be imperfect. Meanwhile… he’s taken it upon himself to go get Bestfrienddudelove and herd him toward me if he needs backup. He smooshes himself into my lap even if there’s not really room if I’m panicking.

@slothanova Ooh never heard of that one. THANK YOU!

Anyone have a recommendation of a site you go to for tv/streaming/movie trigger warnings? I love horror, sci fi, and fantasy, but need to “spoiler” myself so I can either avoid or prepare for triggers, depending upon how my mental health is doing.

[*nom de tweet* @NomTweet]

@old_lindsay Ooh! There’s even an APP!

[*nom de tweet* @NomTweet]

@old_lindsay THANK YOU!!!

I often read synopses on Wikipedia or IMDB (but occasionally those are bad enough to be triggering themselves), and I often check parental review on rotten tomatoes, or just google… but I would LOVE a reliable database citing episodes and times of triggers

@LindaWonder @StephTweet @ziibiing Omigosh I had to do that, too.
