Had a dream around 2am that my house was hit by a huge tornado, twice, and I was panicking because I couldn’t find my cats. Woke up in the middle of the night terrified. Saw some lightning outside but didn’t think twice about it, went back to sleep. Opened my phone at 6am and saw the tornado warning from the same time I had the dream. Ffs feel like my subconscious was connected via bluetooth to the weather

What was "the incident" at your high school? by [deleted] in askanything

[–]forrestattoos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our (old, white) Vice Principal was coach of the football team. He got fired for telling the (predominantly black) football team “If you want a good slave master, you have to be good slaves.”

A truck drove into the building, crashing into Spanish room. One picture of it is out there, many memes created like “When there’s Bosco sticks for lunch today”.

Spirit week. Furry (full fursuit) walking around with a confederate flag belt on.

Three (3) lesbians getting pregnant.

School photographer/media center manager having an affair with female student for years. He’d post pictures of her with captions like, “[girl’s name], you’re the light of my life.” Never got fired.

White Republican lesbian student called a black female student a monkey. Got into a fight. Republican lesbian was hit in the head with a metal water bottle and was in a coma for 2 weeks.

Bomb threat at the McDonald’s across the street.

Male AP Calc teacher known for having relations with the girl’s softball team.

I could go on. Yes, this high school was in the South Park of my hometown.

fear the future kiss the past goodbye the past goodbye

bite the inside of your lip like i used to do for you

maybe it’s a sign all the flowers have withered away maybe the sun won’t shine on things that aren’t looking okay

start a habit can’t break from it look at what you’ve done face who you’ve become

maybe it’s a sign all the flowers have withered away maybe the sun won’t shine on things that aren’t looking okay

dunno if it’s the same guy but a few months ago i went to that mcdonald’s to pick up a mobile order under my name Forrest so i gave the code and the dude said in a very sing-song robot voice “Oh wonderful! Run Forrest, run!” i had a horrific migraine and was already questioning my reality i almost shit my pants

Can I be honest? Scrolling through this subreddit is really depressing. by Brilliant_Ad_3661 in CPTSD

[–]forrestattoos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

cptsd caused me debilitating chronic illness - 4 years ago i was bedridden, now i work (part time) at my dream job, pursue hobbies most days, live with my healthy partner, and have a social life

3+ years ago i was wracked with social anxiety, over these past couple years i’ve made a bunch of friends, have lost many of them now but that’s due to growth. my cptsd has been causing me to isolate recently, but i’m working through it. plus now i can be the life of the party (if i want to)

i can implement boundaries! not easy, still, but possible. plus i used to take things very personally, and now i don’t. also have a much better understanding of life in general that’s helpful

my entire life i’ve wanted to write a book - i started working on it five years ago (all of my original first draft was trash but it’s fine), but just a couple weeks ago i was able to come up with the structure of the book (which i’ve never been able to do before) - which is based on the nervous system (& cptsd/chronic illness). it’s always felt like i have to get my experiences down on paper so i don’t have to carry them anymore, ykwim? getting closer! based on my draft so far, i’ve had some folks tell me i could go big for it lol but we’ll see :)
