on this day one year ago someone sewed a fried egg to a tshirt
fast new style test, I think it looks good, even though it’s pretty rushed
Okay fuck it if this post reaches 666k notes by the end of 2023 I'll practise basic self care
Why 666k? Because it's funny and impossible so good fucking luck
I haven’t been drawing as much lately so I decided to color in an older drawing... and promptly lost ALL of my colored pencils. So please accept this offering to you all.
Surprise! Another drawing... thing I wanted to try a new style thing, faces hairstyles, features and the like. So...
Of course! 💚
This is an experiment
I just saw a post about the Calm Harm app that said there’s also a very similar app called Clear Fear! I didn’t want to reblog that post because some of the reblogs were very guilt trippy, so here’s my own post about it:
Clear Fear is an app that helps you with anxiety attacks in much the same way Calm Harm helps with self harm. You can customise your colours, you can add a passcode to it so that other people can’t open the “self-monitoring” tab with your information, and you can customise your gender. This last bit is only for research purposes but I thought it was nice :)
When you first open the app, it asks you to make your own personal list of activities that you know help you reduce anxiety. You can also add contact numbers of people you know you can talk to when you’re having an attack. You can fill these in later, tho!
Once inside the app, you can go back to these lists in the tab “safety net”:
The orange circle takes you to a hotline number page. The other two circles take you to the activities and people that you listed earlier. If you write down these lists when you’re feeling good, it’ll help you remember all the things that can help and that you may not be able to list while you’re having an attack!
There are many more options depending on your individual needs — an animal gif section, a joke section, a section with ideas to express yourself, a list of positive thoughts and inspirational quotes, breathing activities, information on the different types of anxiety, and much more!
As an end note, please don’t add guilt-tripping comments to this post. No one must reblog this — only those who feel comfortable doing so!
I hope you get the help you need 💚
this is a last resort so I’ll try to keep it as short as possible
I’m struggling for money, a lot. I don’t have any, I’ve used all my savings, and ive only just got a job last week but they “aren’t taking payment details right now” so I have no idea when I’ll get paid.
I’m a lesbian w ptsd, ocd, depression and anxiety. I live at home with my parents, who dont have much money either. they’ve helped me literally as much as they can, but they have nothing to spare. while my parents still love me, they don’t support the idea of me being a lesbian and have attributed it to me being on tumblr and talking to my friends on here, so a lot of my internet access is limited and monitored and my phone is taken away when I go to bed.
as a very brief breakdown, my healthcare costs between £170 - £320 a month, due to medication and therapy, which I struggle very much without. currently I’m only having therapy for my ptsd as it’s the most presenting issue, but I’m unable to have any sessions right now because of the cost, which is £80 an hour. my parents are having to help pay for my prescriptions but the other day mum told me they’re overdrawn and they don’t know where they’re going to get the money to pay it off
my main concern however, is my dog. he’s an 8 month old labrador, and as of a few days ago he was diagnosed with hip dysplasia and elbow dysplasia, so he has an issue with all four of his legs. the bill just to get him checked out and get pain medication was £123, and he’s booked in for 2 weeks time to have an x-ray and potentially surgery depending on what they find, which will be a whole lot more expensive, and this is just for his elbows. they’ve said they want to wait to see what happens with his hips, but that he will end up with painful arthritis when he’s older, and there’s very little they can do to fix elbow dysplasia so it’s something he’ll need pain medication to manage for the rest of his life. he’s upset because he can’t go for long walks or run around, as after about 5 minutes he gets so lame that he can hardly walk at all and can’t eat his food unless I hand feed him while he lays down.
my parents are currently paying for his insurance but it’s expensive (and will go up if we claim for his surgery) and they would like me to take over paying it now that I have a job. that combined with the hypoallergenic food he needs will cost around £100 a month, and work only want me to work part time for the next few months. I’m on minimum wage so I can’t cover it. while my therapy and medication is important, I cannot live without my dog. he’s my best friend and is honestly the only thing keeping me alive
I could go on but this is long enough as it is so if you could please even just reblog this it would mean the world.
bonus - here’s my boy!
