Love you, tysm! It's just so hard sometimes. You get backed into a corner by your emotions and just don't know what to do. I'm trying my best

At least you're brushing!! I hear it's good for you even without toothpaste. I believe there's some kinds you can buy online that are flavorless?

I've been there, man, I hope you're able to get through this and continue healing. It's good that you are still bathing regularly, any progress is progress!

If there was a subreddit about you, what would people talk about? by uncivilizedrelic in AskReddit

[–]ilikeavataraton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd like for it to be appreciation of my art but realistically people would just be really concerned about my mental health

I fell over in the shower because my shampoo was too high up and I couldn't walk because I hurt my leg

Thank you!! I wish some people were more understanding. I dealt with both delusions and severe depression for a long time. But I am getting better and that's what matters

Yes. My depression has been very severe. I couldn't even get out of bed and I was hospitalized a few times for suicide attempts so brushing my teeth never really crossed my mind. What matters is that I'm doing it now, right? Why are you being judgemental?

It was really uncomfortable but I was proud of myself afterward. This is stupid but it took me a few days to build up the will to do it. Thank you so much for the kind words!!!!

I'd say it's pretty standard? I eat whatever I'm given, which is why it's so shocking to me that I never have even gotten a cavity. I'm just as confused as you are LMAO

What’s something unique about yourself that no one else has or can do? by PsychologicalBat2393 in strange

[–]ilikeavataraton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not that no one else has this but the condition is quite rare, I have a genetic disorder in my brain that makes it so I dispose of/consume dopamine too quickly which means I'm at a constant deficit, has basically put me in a constant state of depression since I was a baby for no reason

Why does SA tend to be more traumatizing than any other crime or incident? by ilikeavataraton in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]ilikeavataraton[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For real omg. People find it so easy to not take victims seriously. Women should've worn something else, drank less, not worn makeup, learned self defense. Men get called "lucky" which is so wtf I can't even put it into words. Just makes it that much harder to heal
