For all my straight ladies!!! I have a lot of people pleasing, emotionally avoidant men who come see me for therapy. TRUST ME when I say that they have a LOT that they are hiding from the women they are romantic with.
The girl cat vs boy cat discourse is very misogynistic and weird to me. Because what do you mean your boy cat is a handsome perfect prince and your girl cat is just a rude bitch? 🤨😒
It would appear that all the good girl, rule follower, straight “A” student, eldest daughters are finally sick of everyone’s shit. And I so love that for em.
Ppl think depression means you’re sad & crying all the time. Depression for me is being stuck in a twilight zone. I cannot think, i don't respond to things, nothing is interesting, i just feel empty.
Not sad, just blank.
"I don't chase, I attract!" - autistic girl who does nothing but act quiet and distant, hides her real personality from everyone and stays in her room hoping that her soulmate will just find her

Unfortunately, people with high pattern recognition were gaslit as kids to be too sensitive, too paranoid, and overractive. They've been trained to doubt themselves.

AUTISM IS A LIFETIME OF TRYING TO FIGURE OUT IF OTHER PEOPLE ARE ALSO DEEPLY HOMESICK FOR SOMETHING / SOMEONE THAT DOESN’T EXIST ON THIS DIMENSION AND FIGURING OUT THAT THEY, IN FACT, ARE NOT. AND THEY THINK YOU’RE INSANE WHEN YOU TRY TO ARTICULATE IT.
If whales can survive off their fat stores for months, why is my body acting like it’s entering the Great Depression every two hours?
I have reserves. Use them.
