How “small talk” changed for me in 2022
I used to think “I’m doing pretty good!” Would mean I’m at the place in my career where I wanna be, I’d be living in a city away from my family, I’d have nothing to worry about. Anything less would mean “ehh I’m doing okay”.
Now I know “I’m doing pretty good!” means im working a job that I surprisingly really like for a healthcare entry job, I greet my patients happily and joke around with them, things with my parents aren’t perfect by any means but we sit around and have normal conversations from time to time. I see them more as the kids that to America to start a new life instead of my parents. I’ll genuinely laugh. I’m realizing the life I thought I’d have is falling apart and that it doesn’t have to ruin the little moments of joy. I don’t think about k**ling myself every single day. And that’s unbelievably liberating. I’m not always sure what to do from here but I will.
But I get to say “I’m pretty good” and mean it. Even though all the shit. A win is a win.

who on earth thinks it's a good idea to go hiking 11 km when it's like 35 degrees on a tour that only goes up and has a million stones on it?

do you ever have the feeling that you suffered something traumatic as a kid but you can’t quite figure out what it was?

Put a brave face on for everyone else while all you want to do is slit your wrists or take enough drugs to never feel again

I have no money, cant have or get a job (apart from drawing ugly shit furry art which I am not too successful with) and i am nowhere close to ever living in a small house in the forest with a little garden. Also not helping that, my mental is so fucking shit. And it all feeds in to the others negative spiralling downwards. lol.

I want people to worry about me, but I also want to get so bad while nobody notices and just slowly rot away
