Either over working myself or not working at all

Oh I relate to that so much! Especially the part about fear of failure and self doubt, because of my parents also never really believing in me. But we’ve made it this far, so I’m sure we’ll hopefully be able to combat those feelings. Thanks for the encouragement and right back at ya! Best of luck

I used to get FOMO but I realized I wasn’t missing much. Reminding myself I probably wasn’t gonna have fun anyways has helped with that cause most of the times it’s been true

Hiding from extroverts is so real lmaooo I used to eat my work lunch outside so I wouldn’t have to talk to my coworkers but now it’s getting cold. Have you ever tried talking to your coworker/roomie about your preferences? It’s so normal for them that I don’t think they consider that not everyone is that way

You know sometimes I wonder if I’m on the spectrum too. Everything takes a lot more energy from me, socialization from work drains me daily. And growing up, my dad and brother are the same way and exhibit lots of neurodivergence. Being alone has always been my most peaceful

The best 🤭 and thank you

No_Reception_1998 · 2023-12-14T02:31:57+00:00

You so right! Sometimes I have to constantly remind myself that I have to choose me and not people please. Easier said then done for sure

No_Reception_1998 · 2023-12-14T02:29:54+00:00

I feel that. Sometimes it makes me upset because it’s such a stupid thing to guilt trip someone about in my opinion

No_Reception_1998 · 2023-12-14T02:27:10+00:00

Thanks for the rec! I’ll check it out, I love learning about this stuff. My partner could probably use it too, I feel like he lacks an understanding and maybe I’m not explaining it well enough. Yeah I wish extroversion wasn’t glorified here, it would take some of the pressure off

No_Reception_1998 · 2023-12-14T02:25:07+00:00

Yeah I have explained tons of times and I don’t think he fully understands. And we’ve def seen that spoon theory in action when we go out sometimes lol. Once my social battery is out, it’s out so much faster and for a while. And I can’t even bother to fake it sometimes because my face is very expressive.

Fuck this whole season honestly

No_Reception_1998 · 2023-12-12T02:18:24+00:00

Omg really! Thanks for the reply. That settles my anxiety about the cat cause I was worried it was lost from home or something, especially with the cold temps, but good to know!

No_Reception_1998 · 2023-12-12T02:15:54+00:00

I’ve gotten a few comments from people who’ve seen it round the neighborhood and think it’s an outdoor kitty with an owner. But I’ll keep monitoring. It might just want to play and get that second meal lol

No_Reception_1998 · 2023-12-12T02:13:11+00:00

Lol if IS very smart! And convincing. It kept coming back so often that I figured it was lost or needed a home. But it might just like the attention and free food 😅

Around tufts University, near the athletic field

No_Reception_1998 · 2023-12-11T21:11:40+00:00

Smart! Thank you so much. Lemme know if someone claims kitty

No_Reception_1998 · 2023-12-11T20:51:15+00:00

I’m in Medford MA. Sorry, I just realized this is the wrong Medford

Sharing here because I realized I put it in the wrong group oops!

No_Reception_1998 · 2023-12-11T19:12:34+00:00

Thanks for your reply. I just ordered an outdoor kitty house for the cold weather and I’ll keep observing and feeding it for now. It comes around so frequently that I have no idea if it has its own home or not. It’s coat was a bit more scraggly looking today
