Happy vent! True friendship is staying up until midnight and talking about your guilty pleasures together with absolutely no judgement outside of joking "haha you like ponies" or "lmao why is your fanfic so elaborate it's about zelda and minecraft" and you both know that it's all in good fun. Like I went on a tangent for a good hour and a half and then it was her turn to talk about weirdly disturbing things in a children's show about friendship and both of us had a great time and?? I'm just so happy we're friends sklvdnvsa

So today a girl tried to start a conversation with me and I'm not used to people speaking to me, so I panicked and burst into tears and couldn't stop.

@larcenistarsonist group

Today on what the hell annoying homophobic classmates have said and my snarky responses:

Kid: Ha, that's kinda gay
Me: And that's kind of a dickhead thing to say
Kid: Why are you gay?
Me: Actually I'm pan but thanks for asking
Kid: Like a frying pan?
Me: I'm gonna hit you with frying pan if you don't shut up.
Kid: stares me down
Me: signature "Ice Queen" glare
Kid: turns around and stops talking

And part 2: electric boogaloo

Girl: And she keeps going from lesbian to straight to lesbian to straight like make up your damn mind!
Me: That's called being bi
Girl: Okay smartass
Me: Sorry for being educated and respectful, two things you could learn
Girl: I'M EDUCATED
Me: Your grades say otherwise
Me: leaves cuz the bell rang

@Musical_Queen

I just had a kid in my photo class ask how do you remove a water mark? You know, a watermark. The thing you add to your photos so nobody steals them. THAT watermark. Also, these aren't just freshmen asking. The is my digital photo 3 class. AKA, we are almost the most experienced photo kids on the campus.

@ElderGodSwimwithGamers group

Aha, so… A lot of shit going on in my life right now
Parents are horrible, as usual, but most of it is almost or completely repressed and all I have is the general vibes of Not Good, and I don't want to go digging through memories right now. I'm in one of those moments were you feel like you're about to cry but can't, and I know if I want looking I would and I don't want to deal with them reacting to that.
My brother also found out he has a micro fracture in his for, and if he hadn't been taken to the doctor and kept wrestling it would have been a full blown break.
I'm also struggling through school and parents have made it very clear they won't be happy with anything less than A-Bs (pretty much impossible at this point) even though they know I've been struggling with mental health and haven't been able to function properly.
Shit. I shouldn't have thought about that. I'm almost crying now, you happy wh*re? You're making yourself cry, great job. You attention seeking b-tch.

@ElderGodSwimwithGamers group

Oh, and found out something with my boyfriend that I still feel like it's all my fault, and I feel absolutely horrible because I haven't been able to talk with him much at all recently, and I'm terrified that I'm hurting him because of it.

@moss

I think im sick again and my heads been hurting so bad all day. I also had an English test today and I hadn't read the book so I started it last night and finished this morning. Luckily I got a good grade but I think all that reading just added to my headache. I still have so much hw to finish.

@Cloudy_is_trying_her_best

Hhhhhhh just had a Talk with my mom about my current emotional state and the fact that my math is giving me panic attacks because I don't know how to do it and??? It didn't go awfully??? I don't quite think she understood what I meant by "I either feel like I'm completely hollow and don't feel anything, feel a tiny little bit of happiness/sadness, or feel overwhelmingly sad, happy, or scared. There's no 'happy medium' and that's a problem" but she didn't completely invalidate me! And I was afraid I was going to get smacked or yelled at about my math because I have a bunch of missing assignments, but we had a pretty alright conversation actually all things considered. Still cried a lot because I was Scared to talk about those types of things, probably because I've gotten backlash for it in the past, but I think talking about it was a good call in the end.

also I forgot to tell y'all but my friend and I got cold feet when we were going to call CPS because we didn't know what might happen

@Becfromthedead group

Hey, like I know I can't help you with your situation completely, and I'm glad the conversation went alright. Also glad you feel comfortable opening up here, because we are here to listen and help where we can.
So anyway, I'm going to extend this offer to you and anyone else who might need help, since I know it's something within my abilities. I'm pretty good at math, so if you have any questions about anything, or trouble understanding certain concepts, I may be able to help. You can always shoot me a PM or tag me in a public thread.

@larcenistarsonist group

im so lonely holy shit

both of my best friends are quarantined and im stuck at school sitting alone with nothing but my depression and paranoia

it just hit me that nobody else knows me like my best friends do.

they know when im going through another 'episode'

they know how to treat me

they just get me

and next week is going to be the longest and most mentally tiring of my life

i have six finals in two days.

my grade and future depend on them.

the christmas time is getting to me, making me irritable and ready to snap

my friends wont be there to calm me down or to joke around with me

ill have nothing to distract me from the dread constantly lurking in my head

i am nearing my breaking point

i just want to sleep…

@larcenistarsonist group

Y'know when your cat leaves you for a spot of sun on the floor and they do it all the time but this time it feels different because you're already so lonely and just slowly spiraling and that small thing that's usual not a big deal has you close to tears and you just want to go lay down in some grass and wait for the earth to reclaim you? Yeah that.

@SpookyScarySnoteleks group

I know that Cloudy and I are like, the only ones on this site who give a flying flip about MCYT but Eret, Illumina, Punz and Krinos won MCC 13 and I'm so proud of them because they ended Season 1 with a bang and I can say that I was there

@berlioz

Do you ever assume a fictional character's trauma onto yourself because you immerse yourself in the world of story so much it's damn near impossible to not? I figure other writers might struggle with this too.

@Cloudy_is_trying_her_best

Tbh the closest thing to that that I've experienced is when one of my favorite characters died in a really grotesque and gorey way and I was absolutely horrified, wound up not being able to get that out of my head for like a week and a half. I kept thinking about how helpless it would feel to find one of your friends in that situation and knowing that you couldn't do anything for them. I wound up slowly getting over it, but it still fucked me up for a little while. Wasn't something that I wrote either, btw.

@ccb group

my heart's in a million pieces.

@ccb group

the other thing is, if you're sad or mourning or grieving you need to take time to process and take care of yourself, but how do you do that when you blame yourself?

@ccb group

you're right dom. and if i blame myself for "not stopping him" i'm indirectly blaming all our friends who "couldn't stop him" and i don't think it was their fault at all. i don't think it was anyone's fault, and clearly there's nothing we can do now. i just wish i had somewhere to put all these feelings, something actionable to do
