Some people are morning birds, other people are night owls. Me? I'm some sort of permanently exhausted pigeon.

    Commissions open again

    My car has officially kicked the bucket and said no more. I kinda saw it coming but was not smart enough to stop buying burritos so I could actually afford a car so uh suddenly I need a lot of money. So I'm doing whatever I can. I can do humans and ponies.

    Autumn feels

    Already posted this in Art for Fanfiction but I want to post here too.

    I don't know about you guys but I'm starting to feel like it's autumn again.

    I was in the mood so I decided to redraw something I drew when I was younger that I was proud of at the time.

    2016:

    My wish came true


    I know coronavirus is serious but I'm super happy all my classes are cancelled for the rest of the semester because of it! More time for art and work. I hate school so much. So I'll probably start taking commissions again at some point.

    Merry Christmas Y'all

    I failed to do Christmas art this year so have some old recycled art:

    Like, really old. I was 14 when I drew that. I'm 19 now. You do the math. I have apparently not drawn any Christmas art since then with the exceptions of art of other people's OCs, which is weird to post.

Do you ever just kind of want to die? · 2:00am Nov 21st, 2016

I don't think I've wanted to be alive for a few days now. Or weeks. I don't know...

No, I won't do anything drastic. But maybe I'll be admitted somewhere.

I just need to get away from everything.

I should just take my meds and shut up with the attention whoring. :ajsleepy: I'm just so sick of trying to act like I'm okay though. I can't.

Yes, take your meds.

Take your meds and see if there's a proper institution that can help you heal. Your environment isn't conducive for your well-being.

I really don't know how to bring the subject up though

Just take them aside when they have the time and tell them that you need a place to recover because the home environment isn't so good for you right now.

4310748
Them. Who is them?

4310753 Who did you want to bring the subject up to?

Personally, #TheExactOppositeKindOfDepression because I'm the opposite of suicidal despite being depressed.

Have you tried talking to your parents about this?

Mania is a state of abnormally elevated arousal, affect, and energy level, or "a state of heightened overall activation with enhanced affective expression together with lability of affect." Although mania is often conceived as a “mirror image” to depression, the heightened mood can be either euphoric or irritable; indeed, as the mania intensifies, irritability may become more pronounced and eventuate in violence.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mania

Mania is often a symptom of bipolar disorder, which is essentially when you swing between mania and depression.

I think you read his comment wrong.

4310779
They refuse to discuss it with me. I've tried.

I'm sorry. I've felt that way too. Take your Meds and talk with your parents about this. I'm sorry you feel this way.

4310801
I meant that I'm depressed for the opposite reason from suicidal depression.

4310802
I don't think I did.

4310809
You did, as I know exactly what he's talking about.

4310806 4310810
Well, as suicide is about death, I guess the opposite would be birth, so postnatal depression?

4310815
Suicide=Wanting to die; Opposite of Suicide=Would take drastic measures to physically live longer.

4310815
You really don't get it, do you?

He's depressed, but not suicidal. I'd guess he's afraid of death and doesn't like thinking about it too much because the concept depresses him.


4310806
I don't want to speak for you though. Is that correct in any way?

4310820
Quite well, because someone can want to die because it relieves them of their negative emotion, but they will also rid themselves of positive emotions not to mention the ability to think. Because after killing yourself, will you be glad you made the decision to die? No. You'll be dead. And there is no afterlife.

4310828
I used to think like that a few years ago.

4310833
I don't know how someone can change their thought about death like that.

4310820
I have a tendency to take things very literally.

4310838
It happens if enough shit comes your way.

Quoting Wikipedia to try to inform people about what they're saying just makes you come off as a douchebag. I nearly blocked you again.

If your medication makes you feel bad look for something that doesn't. If there is no better alternative just try and power through it.

I know how that feels. Believe me, it would be best if you saw someone and got some meds. If you're on them, maybe look into a different kind. If you're seeing someone, talk to them, tell them how you're feeling and if there's anything you can do for it.

And remember, you're not alone here. You always have friends. We're here for you.

I understand you can't really speak to your parents so try speaking to a teacher? How about that teacher you like?

The med's will not help, for all they do is cover it up, what you need to do is leave and live with someone for the time being that understand's and can be there to help you thru it.

This is partly true, but not a practical solution at her age.

4311244
Well if she can, she will, it's her choice to do so.

S.W.B.

4311121
I have the medications, it's just a matter of forcing myself to take them.

As for talking to people, therapy does nothing for me. I suspect that's my mother's fault as she used to use therapy as a threat of punishment so I have a bad association now.

4311209
I don't really see him much these days though. And he'd make me see that annoying counselor again.

4311324 That will be tough, but if anyone would understand, it's your therapist. Have you talked about that with them? They might be able to help you. If you make the most of your experience there, maybe it won't feel as much like a punishment?

You know how I feel about this.
