    Driving Challenges

    I never managed to get my drivers’ license, paid a fortune in classes but I can’t get my anxiety behind the wheel under control. Too many unpredictable situations on the road. Sorry to hear you’re having a hard time.

    What movies have made you cry?

    Many movies. Most recently it was All Of Us Strangers. That movie wrecked me.

    For the first time in years I’ve had a good birthday. No tears, no loneliness. I am proud of myself.

    Does tea make you feel like you have hair on your tongue?

    No, but spinach makes my teeth feel sticky.

    I’m on dating apps for the first time in my life. Such an odd experience.

    YouTube psychologists

    There are some great therapists that have useful and informative YouTube video channels, but I am a bit skeptical of most people spouting pop psychology with zero credentials.

    Role Playing Game (4 to 10 players needed)

    Hey! I’m interested in playing but I’m unfortunately dealing with burnout at the moment so I’m unable to commit to anything right now. I would really like to join at a later time though, if at all possible.

    Moaning

    What I mean is, maybe the way you say things (could be intonation, could be phrasing, could be timing, could be frequency) is perceived as complaining or being negative without you realizing it.

    Moaning

    I’m gonna echo what some other people say: maybe you come off rather negative in your interactions and people are responding to that. Maybe your coworker is the one telling you to stop your moaning because he actually likes you and wants you to know people perceive you as someone that complains...

    Do you hate it when random strangers tell you to ''cheer up''?

    Yeah I’ve also had people tell me “you need to stop smiling so much, it makes you seem fake”.

    Do you hate it when random strangers tell you to ''cheer up''?

    Honestly I don’t like it when anyone tells me to cheer up. But yeah, strangers especially need to mind their business.

    Do you think pets help or hinder mental wellbeing?

    Depends on the pets and the circumstances. My cats mostly help my mental health, but not always. When my burnout or depression gets bad, I don’t have the energy to give my pets the attention and care they deserve. This makes me feel bad, but one of them will also loudly complain when he’s bored...
