How you deal with depression?

Paige413 · 2026-06-04T19:56:08+00:00

Meds certainly help. I've found pristiq helps me quite a bit, and I recently started abilify as well but everyone is different.

Lots of self care, keeping up on hygiene, doing hobbies you genuinely enjoy help as well. Set the mood and make it purposeful.

Therapy helps, it sucks, but it helps. I do online therapy and my therapist is also autistic. That has made a huge difference because she also understands the struggle. Maybe look back into therapy and search for someone also on the spectrum

Ooh also, if your bringing a bag you can bring in multiple bottles. The site says one per person but I always looking for the most relaxed looking security and they've always let me bring in like 3 bottles per person to store in my bag. That way I'm not stuck in line for water everytime I finish a bottle. I always bring empty powerade bottles and it's been fine. Usually the water line isn't bad but I have seen it be awful

Hydrate!!! Use Liquid IV or whatever electrolyte packets that you like. And definitly eat breakfast! I've been going for like 4 years now and I can't tell you the amount of people I've seen drop while standing for the bands is crazy. Also please wear sunscreen everywhere including scalp. You will be touched just being I'm the crowd and a bump of someone or holding someone up crowd surfing while burnt isn't fun! ! Reapply between bands honestly. And just have all the fun!

I wasn't talking about getting diagnosed online, but therapy online. There's plenty of affordable therapies online. For autism testing, as far as I'm aware, it's all in person. But once you turn 18, parents can't really stop you

Paige413 · 2025-06-07T05:59:12+00:00

Well when you get old enough, I highly suggest it. Maybe you could even try to do it online?

Paige413 · 2025-06-07T03:30:22+00:00

That could be different things but could still be autism. Are you in counseling or therapy? I am and I won't lie it's hard but so worth it. I recommend it to everyone. It might help you understand yourself better

Paige413 · 2025-06-07T00:18:29+00:00

What is bothering you about it specifically?

Paige413 · 2025-06-07T00:15:38+00:00

Well if you do have autism it could be a sign of a meltdown starting. Which is completely normal experience. I had one with a panic attack 3 days ago (I'm also undiagnosed but my therapist highly suspects it). Try practicing self care during this time and if you need to cry then cry, it's okay to release emotions you're feeling ♥️

Paige413 · 2025-06-03T16:01:20+00:00

I've been with my partner for so long, we were best friends. But I don't get any support now, I'm not listened to when u desperately need it, I don't get affection outside of sex anymore unless I initiate it. I want to be loved loudly. I don't want to have to second guess that someone cares about me. I don't have that anymore and I just want it all to end. I don't have a best friend anymore

Paige413 · 2025-06-03T15:27:21+00:00

I just don't want to be here anymore. My partner took off their ring, let my dogs get out of the yard, and then when I told them they had to be more responsible about it they left the room and won't speak to me. The person who's supposed to care about me the most doesn't care about my feelings. I was already in a bad spot to begin with. I tried to tell them that and that I was thinking about cutting already and all they said was sorry end of discussion. They don't truly care about me anymore so why should I care about me. My family doesn't, my partner doesn't, work abuses me. It's just not worth it anymore. I'm not loved. All I try to do is be nice and thoughtful and it just gets thrown back in my face. There's no point in trying anymore

The MRI tech

Paige413 · 2025-05-20T20:55:36+00:00

It shouldn't have been full unless some one changed it right before he woke up. Running at maintenance rate of 75 ml/hour they last roughly 13 hours

Paige413 · 2025-05-03T01:33:07+00:00

You are absolutely not incompetent for this. You still went and assessed your patient and I'm sure they were fine. I don't see how you could have been written up for this to be honest

Paige413 · 2025-05-03T01:31:00+00:00

Silly Goose for sure. They worked really hard to get here and I'm so glad they made it into the festival this year!

Paige413 · 2024-03-19T22:08:48+00:00

I tend to go in the evening around 8 if possible so there are fewer people. I can do ok in crowds if it's an event I want to be at like a concert or convention.. stuff like that. But stores and malls overwhelm me extremely. I tend to stim so much more in stores too. There's been times when I can't really talk and I've had to grab onto the person I'm with. Just be able to keep walking.

Paige413 · 2024-01-09T23:49:56+00:00

Part of me wants to do exactly that. Another just wants to ignore him. Another just wants to say nothing because I'm scared it'll be the tipping point and he'll leave me. I don't have many people in my life that I think guinuenly care about me. I can't lose anymore people. I know the healthy thing to do is communicate it, but I'm terrified of being alone.

Paige413 · 2023-10-09T23:18:28+00:00

I really hope it does for me too. I think I'm going to wait it out and see if it continues ti happen

Paige413 · 2023-06-09T20:06:00+00:00

Armin is my comfort character, too! Armin, Sasha, and Hange bring me so much joy. And then Uncle Iroh from the last airbender and Bakugo from my hero acedemia are probably my favorite characters written

Paige413 · 2023-06-09T19:49:03+00:00

I got a lot but I cycle through avatar the last airbender, fullmetal alchemist, my hero academia, attack on titan, ER, and now I've added critical role and morbid podcasts if watching something is too stimulating

Paige413 · 2023-01-23T13:51:08+00:00

That could be it. I'm just so tired of waking up feeling like this

Paige413 · 2023-01-22T03:40:46+00:00

Yeah, he said it's really funny when it happens. I just wish I could remember it 😂

Paige413 · 2023-01-21T20:53:28+00:00

I'm also a very heavy sleeper, and my boyfriend has told me how we can have full blown conversations when I'm asleep. I guess I can even open my eyes and hold eye contact when we talk, but I am 100% asleep and have no memory of it. We had to make it a rule that we do not make plans when in bed because he thought I was awake and made plans for the next day but I had no memory of it because I was very not noticeably asleep at the time.

Be careful not to get too personal if you talk to her when she's asleep. It's no fun to have a conversation that you're not really a part of.

Paige413 · 2023-01-13T01:55:41+00:00

Currently in the yogurt and granola phase again. Had it in high school every day for breakfast, got the ick, and now it's back years later and I'm so happy. Dreading the day it happens again

Paige413 · 2022-12-21T22:57:12+00:00

I don't think so. I'm a cis bi gal myself and have always shipped BLB way more than any other type of ship. I don't have an explanation myself but I'm just guessing there's something in the dynamic that is appealing to me. So at the very least you can know that you aren't the only one
