What's Bothering You?

Spoiler: tw: bd/body dysmorphia

I haven't been going to the gym as much as I usually do and It's just causing me to have body issues more than I usually do. I feel like if I had a scale to show that I probably haven't gained weight in just a couple of days it would ease that anxiety, but I also know that this w/ body checking can be dangerous so,, its just frustrating. I think I'm just gonna start clearing up more time for the gym, so I have no excuses. I want to start lifting more.

The fact I just announced "Hey look, I'm Francine!" to a bunch of people who didn't know wtf I was on about and I spectacularly failed to explain.

For context, I just noticed I was wearing blue and white dotted socks, so it made perfect sense to me, even if not to them.

Screw them all anyway, I AM Francine!

Long time no vent

Spoiler: Warning: Pet Death

My cat hasn’t been feeling well for last few weeks. She got diagnosed with lymphoma today. The vet gave her some steroids and an appetite stimulant to try and perk her up a little, but she’s 15 and there’s not much they can do. I don’t know how much longer we have together, but I’m going to treasure every moment of it.

The fact that it seems like there are often a bunch of tiny things in the back of my mind (similar to low background static) that bother me from a long time ago that are things that no person could change or control in their own life. What I describe is I suppose comparable to randomly remembering an embarrassing moment from X years ago when you are trying to go to sleep
The, "I wish such and such circumstance was different because X" or "so X" "and then X" ect...
I mean I am working through that, but it still bothers me.
hope I am not the only one who feels this way...

The new person we were meant to be hiring at our store just ghosted us and now I have to take on some extra work I don't understand why someone would apply to a job, interview, fill out all the contracts, and then just completely stop all communication with us

why is it whenever we go into lockdown companies and schools are always like "hey now you've so much time on your hands you should be doing this/planning to get going once we're out of lockdown!!", like no, I'd rather relax and process things rn than think about work so can u pls **** off lmao

i hope they will be okay if i "only"do like 80% if i get more hours cause i don't think i can do 100% really (yes there's a huge difference if you have any kind of asd stuff goin on..probably for others as well).

Welcome back! It'll take a few days to readjust I'm sure. Also everyone's distracted by the camp event right now, maybe you could still join if you're interested?

No I am not interested. I am not really too good at being in big groups it makes me feel uncomfortable.

I don't mind groups or teams but I'm not that one perfect team player and I don't really care for like drama or stuff being too run by others in my free time, lol. I can get the idea behind teams and cabins but tbf I miss the individual fair some (aside from staff faves cause i never get those anyways lol)

Well thats how it is for me. In real life I was paired with a big group and everyone was looking at me weird as if I am suppose to know what they were talking about. It was a painful experience during my school days. Then online it wasn't much better, people often ignore me and just act like I am not there whatsoever. So that is one of the reasons I refuse to participate in parties, events, and any big group projects, because one I'm an Introvert and second I am autistic because my mind tends to get overwhelmed by too much information.

My mom said there has been a cat outside and they’re trying to feed it so we can take it and hopefully find its owner or a new home for it. I am now worrying about it since my mom told me because they had to move the food we left outside since there was a raccoon on the deck. We also have hawks in the back . i wish people would keep their cats inside. i’m so scared for them.

Hi, I’m not sure what’s going on, but just know that you are loved and supported on the forum! I’m sorry your family has been treating you poorly. It’s okay to feel emotions and to feel upset.

A fact is that words only have meaning if we give them meaning. Let’s say you’re wearing a blue shirt, and someone walks up to you and says “that’s an ugly white shirt.” — Well, you would look at them confused, because your shirt is blue. It’s the same deal with the word “ugly.” Ugly is an adjective like the color white. You don’t believe your blue shirt is white, so why believe your blue shirt is ugly?

What I’m trying to say is, try not to let what your family says get to you. They’re most likely looking for a reaction, so it’s best to act like it doesn’t bother you, and trust me, I know that’s hard. I hope things get better for you, I really do. This forum is a safe space. You’re free to be yourself here!

Me also, though it has gotten better since I started working and stuff. But yes I totally get you.

And yeah when I work I definitely don't have time to do these things cause it'd take a bit too much energy and and time, and it seems more like a big competition party than having fun tbf. Pretty prizes and all, I've learned I don't have to do every single event on-site. Though bring back fair with better staff faves selections and I'm on. Lol.
