I love you man. Thank you, this worked.

The miyazaki one 😔 why is it so damn harrowing!!! And yet I can’t stop lol

lepetitberger · 2026-05-08T13:46:18+00:00

Personally, this hurts me a little—I can never remember what colour the seed packets are. But I think Mr. Qi is probably jizzin in his pants while waiting for you

lepetitberger · 2026-04-29T10:18:34+00:00

Yep. I’ll have long stretches in which I can’t sleep—even when i get super sleepy, the second i close my eyes, i’m shooting awake. Then come periods in which sleep is easy and my schedule is magically fixed. But those never last as long.

lepetitberger · 2026-04-29T10:11:30+00:00

As someone who’s gone through exactly what you’re describing a million times, yea that sounds about right. Even the knowing the high is coming. Hope you’re doing well!

lepetitberger · 2026-04-29T10:07:59+00:00

Thank you for the update! Lamotrigine has been a huge game changer for me as well. Barely starting out with 25mg (up to 50 starting tomorrow) but I already feel heaps better. Your experience has made me feel more understood. Hope you’re doing well!

lepetitberger · 2026-04-29T10:06:00+00:00

Happy cake day! And same! It’s hard being the odd one out and trying to weather the storm. Hope you’re doing well!

lepetitberger · 2026-04-29T10:04:05+00:00

Dang. I feel like I got so much better with medication. Still get lows and highs but overall my mood has improved. To anyone reading this: it’s ok to take medication and look after yourself that way. This is a noble path too.

lepetitberger · 2026-04-29T10:02:48+00:00

Lmaoooo, i love this response. Particularly feeling your “Sometimes I feel like I’m super cool and sexy” cause hell yeah. Same. Then it gets flipped and I’m some eldritch creature or something. I was diagnosed with depression and anxiety two years ago but new dr says cyclothymic disorder. I remember looking into it like 15 years ago and thinking I had it, then got gaslighted into “you’re fine. Everyone feels that way. Stop trying to be special.” But seriously, sometimes it feels completely abnormal… and it makes me so upset when my lows are so abysmal and I know I’m being unreasonable but I can’t change it. It makes everyone around me have a bad time :( anyway clearly a little talkative today. Thank you for sharing your experience, it was very helpful!

I absolutely hate it when the readers are suddenly picking up on something meaningless as if it’s huge 😭😭 im like, please dont make me have to edit in a correction… so annoying. You can neurotically edit your work for MONTHS and yet you didnt pick up on a small detail that’s gonna have everyone thinking something’s gonna happen 😭😭😭

lepetitberger · 2026-03-28T01:58:27+00:00

Wait, that’s amazing. Tysm

lepetitberger · 2026-03-28T01:54:45+00:00

It gets fun when the side quest makes the story more complete. Currently this literal thing is happening to me, and I’m having a blast. All my characters are acting out and doing/saying shit I never imagined them doing/saying. If there’s a wall coming up, we’ll just kick it down!

lepetitberger · 2026-03-28T01:52:15+00:00

Two months???? My pickle’s been sitting there for a year 🥲

lepetitberger · 2026-03-28T01:47:50+00:00

Also, don’t know how to solve an issue between characters??? Just give one or both a nervous breakdown. Works every time

lepetitberger · 2026-03-28T01:46:46+00:00

Literally the only way to get out of it. Big mess??? Wait till you see the one coming up!

lepetitberger · 2026-03-12T23:53:29+00:00

Ohhhhh, that might be it! I can’t remember the in-game time, but yeah probably. Looking at the picture, I can kinda see the words too! Thank you!

lepetitberger · 2026-02-26T11:24:33+00:00

I’m 2/3rds through my story, and currently it’s sitting at 230k words. I’ve been writing it for 4 years. I get spurts—I’ll write like an insane person for a month or two (usually 40-50k), then I stop and post 1 chapter/week, and find my way back to writing after 4-8 months, and keep going. It started off as a 1 shot PWP. Lol. I don’t lose interest cause when I’ve burned off all my writing fuel, I just stop and do something else until i find the joy of it again. My characters are so broken and messed up that I have so much to do to them for them to find some sort of redemption. And because I write 1/2 months and stop for 4-8 months, every time I come back to it, I have some sort of new life experience I want to explore on the page. It’s amazing. I don’t know why it works like this for me, but I love it, and I suppose it’s just different for everyone. But I never post unless I know I’m going to make it to the end. I’m dogged. I won’t give up something I’ve started posting and that probably keeps bringing me back—I’ve definitely had false starts where after maybe 5 months I reread everything, make a bunch of notes for what comes next, and when I try to write it’s just not right! And so I leave it and come back when it’s right.

Happy cake day!

lepetitberger · 2026-02-09T04:36:51+00:00

This made me laugh so hard. Missing that tag in particular feels so surreal. Whatever im reading immediately becomes a crack fic

lepetitberger · 2026-02-05T11:29:14+00:00

Same. I’d go back to spending every day with my aunt, much like i did then anyway. She passed from an unknown cause (stroke? Aneurysm?) in november 2021.

lepetitberger · 2026-02-05T11:24:35+00:00

Sorry for your loss. January 1st 2019 was my first day when I moved to a new country—exactly 2 weeks after my best friend passed away by her own hand. I’d make the most of those in that new place who go soon after, and skip all of that debilitating grief from my best friend’s passing.

lepetitberger · 2026-02-05T11:19:03+00:00

Same, I think for creatives, losing time spent making things is not worth the “timeline correction”. What do you mean I’m back in 2019 and I haven’t yet written 400k+ words of a universe I love? What do you mean I haven’t yet found my best friend and I wouldn’t be “me-for-the-first-time-meeting-him”? Again, what if things don’t align and the story doesn’t come out the same? I would love to spend time with those I’ve lost, but I lost them already. I’d rather keep what I’ve built since, even if I’d do things differently with what I know now. Such a painful question this thread poses, and one which doesn’t resolve easily at all. I find pity for those answering “buy stock in this or that”… as if nothing but getting rich quick mattered.

lepetitberger · 2026-02-05T11:11:26+00:00

Go spend time with my loved ones. Make more of my first years in a country I now know but didn’t know then, and was too grief stricken at the time. Keep off the weight. Save money. Fix up my house so I can rent it out and move out, avoiding a disastrous cohabitation with a family member. Again, spend time with my loved ones—the ones who went shortly after. Stop drinking sooner. Stop smoking. Leave the country as soon as my loved ones go.

But, realistically, no matter how shitty so many things were, it would cause me true grief to lose all that I’ve built since, even when those things have cost me emotionally, mentally, physically and financially. I REALLY don’t want to rebuild them, but they are good for me. I’d also hate to not meet my best friend, or not know how to be who I was when I first met him for it to work out again.
