This should be interesting. I decided last night that I didn't want to take my antidepressants anymore. I feel like with how things have been going since the original need for them arose, I'm ready to try moving forward without them. I still have some (but I'm running out) that I can take if it doesn't go well. I feel like making the choice to...

@headshot That's actually interesting to know. But I don't think I'd be able to do it successfully, I'm too clumsy. Besides, it's a low enough dose that I don't think I need to mess with it. Thanks for the advice though.

I don't think I'm going to get out of bed today. I've been feeling off for the last couple of days. Now it's 7 in the morning, I still haven't slept because I was trying to fight off a meltdown, or depression, or something. I'm still mad at people here. I'm going to sleep, and not put pants on, and hide here the rest of...

Long story short, my mother was trying to guilt me into something I didn't want to do, telling me how 'disappointed and upset' she was with me. I finally told her that I'm allowed to have boundaries too, that my feelings are just as valid as hers, and that I'm tried of pretending they aren't. Not the glorious telling someone off I always imagined, but...

This is so strange to me. I feel like I've been making good progress on my mental health. Maybe I'm just expecting too much, too fast? I've come to realize something important recently. I don't think I'm as depressed as I used to be. It's still there, boy is it ever still there... But it's not the same desperate feeling. I don't think that suicide...

@cerebus666 it was already resolved before you said anything. Lol.

So, I was a huge Dragon Ball fan growing up. I had so many Dragon Ball Z t-shirts that people I didn't know, noticed. I watched the original series, I watched Z, I pretend that GT never existed...

But when Super came out, I just didn't feel like watching. I don't know, maybe after watching a few episodes of GT, I just didn't have faith....

So, I'm a little caught off guard here. Context first? Background info? My mother is absolutely psychotic. She really lives in her own world, in the worst possible ways. She tends to think that she has done a lot of things that she hasn't.

Now, she likes to talk shit about my ex-sister-in-law. She always has, even before my brother divorced her. For all of...

Anyone remember these art prints SG sold some years back? I don't really remember how long ago it was that I picked it up, but she's been hanging in my room for years now. It's a shame she's not on the site anymore, she was one of my favorites. Just looked up and noticed it again, felt like sharing it with you all. I think...

So, today my niece told me that she told her dad that he needs to start paying me, because I cook and clean and am 'basically a housewife'. πŸ˜‚

It's nice that she thinks I need to be paid for what I do. But to me, what I do is payment for letting me live here. You know?

Anyway, how are you doing? Hope you...

I'm kind of reluctant to post this, but I guess I'm going to do it anyway.

Once upon a time, I used to be religious. I was raised Catholic, and I used to believe. I prayed to a good to thought was listening, I had a cross that I wore, I even read the Bible. But somewhere along the lines, I lost my faith. I...

@cerebus666 You actually helped me figure something out by making me think about my motivations for this. My own mistrust of religion is why it's taken me so long to reach this point. But your comment helped me realize that it is a piece, however small, of my identity puzzle. So, thank you for that.

@wolfwood1203 You're welcome, my friend πŸ˜ƒ!

A while ago, I got started on a writing project that I actually liked. I'm not going to get into the story right now, that's not the important part of this. The important part is that I stopped writing at some point.

I guess my mental health issues had a bit to do with it. And I've been struggling to get myself writing again. So,...

It's experiment time again. Still slowly branching into cooking more Mexican food, since that's what the family likes. I'm attempting some shredded chicken tacos this time. Yes, I cheated and I'm using a seasoning mix. But the chicken looks and smells pretty good so far.

Not sure what put the idea in my head, but I got the urge to listen to some Cauldron whine...

Terry Pratchett always said that burnt crunchy bits (BCBs) makes the best food. I have some β€œwell loved” pans I love to cook with. That looks delicious.

@fredhincanada Well, it's a rare meal that all 8 of us enjoy, but everyone liked it.

I'm not good at titles.

Well, for the first time in I don't know how many years, I have changed pant sizes. I just switched from a size 40 waist, to a size 36. It's a little tighter than I'd like, but it fits. How cool is that shit? I mean, realistically, the perfect fit is in-between the 36 and the 38, but they don't...
