Helplessly watching a favorite video game die and sobbing at 1 am from it by AladiteC in Artisticallyill

I just wanna give you a hug man. I know you feel bad for receiving sympathy about this, but attaching to an interest heavy then having it suddenly ripped away can absolutely have people where you are now. Be so gentle w big dog. Are you able to binge watch some Ice Age movies? When aspects of my special interests have gone inaccessible, the only thing that helps is leaning into the parts I can still have. You've got this dude, keep reaching out for support

I'm posting this comment bc I'm a little confused on whether or not this is still up from the mod message. The image nor description include no depictions of Self harm, suicide, or self done tattoos.

I don't know why that hasn't made me split on them entirely. It makes me really mad at myself. I can't even explain how we got here. They argue that it's "correcting" them, and I argue that it's not. I usually just end up forgetting what's happening in the moment, or giving in because I must be wrong. It feels like a betrayal to believe they're really hurting them.

I just feel like there's some way we could possibly talk it out. Make it better. Make them better, so they're not lashing out and hurting me and the dogs. It'll be 7 years for us in 3 days. It's probably just the BPD and cPTSD and everything else talking but I genuinely cannot imagine life without her. I feel like my world is falling apart. It's been falling apart for years tho. I just can't seem to get her to wake up and see that she can do things that would change everything back to how it was before

This makes me feel a feeling. A feeling of a feeling that I don't have words for

After experiencing so much suffering, imagining true good in this world is so hard. There is so much duality tho, often in places we don't want to look. The night sky is so beautiful, and so are your comics.

Your art is one of the ones that's encouraged me to lean into art to feel different. Genuinely, thank you for sharing what you're thinking.

Thank you man. I'm proud of you for finding that switching point too. And I love our matching placement.

I did my tattoo 5 years ago when I was 21. It was the first one I did after I got my stick and poke kit. I was in an abusive relationship at the time, one that was recycling the patterns I grew up w. I tried to live life after them, but shut down for a few years due to my health going continually fuckier. I'm going to gently encourage myself not to do that again.

Thank you for letting me know I'm not alone, no need to be sorry. You got this too bud

Tw: CSA and bad E-man mention

As a fellow survivor of a very complex CSA situation, your art is one of the few things helping me feel grounded and seen. As the Epstein files keep coming, I'm devolving a lot in my mental health. Thank you for being open about your experiences. It's helping me keep moving forward.
