#loss of mom

[plague-parade]

i feel like we dont talk enough about how distressing and disturbing memory loss issues are. forgetting what you were talking about halfway through a sentence, putting something down and instantly forgetting where you put it. having to reread one paragraph over and over again because by the time youve moved onto the next sentence you dont remember what the one before it said. always doubting if your memories of things are real, not being able to remember important life events.

its so incredibly scary, it feels like your mind is constantly playing tricks on you and you start to doubt whats real and what isnt.

“i forgot” is treated like a lazy excuse when it’s genuinely such a big issue for so many people.

#this has been building up in me for a bit #i was talking to my mom and she brought up a concert we went to and i have zero memory of ever going #huge chunks of my life are just. gone. #every time i sew i put the needle down and spend fifteen minutes trying to find it #memory loss #memory issues #cognitive issues #cognitive decline #cognitive dysfunction

How did Swanatello react when Mikey told him they didn’t have a mother? How does he react after being told his memories are false? Does his family ever have to play along so as not to upset him?

[ prev ]

it depends on what kind of a day donnie is having, and they've definitely gotten better at handling things as they've gone along... while they usually try not to lie to him or 'play along,' per se, a lot of the time it's better to redirect the conversation rather than just... tell him no. his reactions vary, but straight up rejecting a memory or perception of his can be upsetting or disorientating. they usually try to ask questions to guide him back to 'reality' and gently correct or change the topic of conversation.

Happy New Year! ✨️

I'll be spending the year working on loving my body after losing over 200lbs. I'll be spending the year working on a stronger body. I'll be spending the year nourishing my body the way it deserves. I'll be spending the year working on loving my body after numerous surgeries. 💜

So on top of dealing with being sick from post covid symptoms in the last year, I lost my mother 8 months ago after being her caregiver for a longtime. Even though she was sick mentally, physically including parkinsons for a while, the way we lost her was really awful and kind of traumatising. There's a lot to unpack with therapy but I'm trying to work through it every day. I'm trying to find small ways to keep her with me and embrace some of the things she loved. One of the things she really, really loved was the show Criminal Minds. She watched every single episode and would pretty much reiterate ever one to me (it was kind of annoying sometimes to be honest lol). Especially her love for the character Spencer Reid and his storyline with his mother. I know almost everything about his characters back story despite never ever watching it. She use to try to get me to watch it with her constantly, but I was either busy or watching something else. Even though I know I shouldn't feel guilty because I did spend a lot of time with her every day and being a parents caregiver is a very tough thing. A big part of my life was basically being a mother to my own mother. Which is a heavy thing on your heart, soul even when no one is to blame. I don't miss my ill mother, she wasn't easy because living with serious illness sometimes changes a person. I do miss my mother, my real mother who was beautiful, funny and so smart every day. And even the things she loved. So a week or so ago I started binging the show so maybe I could find out why she loved it. I'm on the tail end of season 3 and really enjoying it. I'm sorry I never got to enjoy it with her, I know she would have loved discussing each episode during commercials. And fine, mom my neurodivergent butt likes Reid too ok?

#04.07.22 #3039 #ma #i think my underlying thought was 'it should be easier to try to fix my mental health and loss of motivation once i have free time' #but im just not very able to actually discuss that with my mom #also i was wrong bc ive had so much free time since then and i haven't fixed anythin

omg sparrow fur just got confirmed to become the second leader of skyclan

Ok, that's good. I'll have to think of how to go foward from here.

If Sparrow Heart had died before taking leadership, I was going to write that as her being INFURIATED by it. Remembered forever as Skystar's stooge, his general, his loyal servant, but never having power of her own. And, generations later, she'd grab for it in any way possible.

With her being Sparrowstar, I'm going to keep her ambition and desire for power, but she had a chance to enact her vision in life. She was the first cat to inherit 9 lives, even, with how BB!Skystar is the first leader to die. She continued his "legacy," not out of any actual love or respect to him, but because it's HER TURN.

All these years of groveling, of having to bend and bargain around the desire of stronger cats, now it's HERS. She is the one who bargains, who makes others grovel. No one will make her scared and powerless ever again.

It's going to continue the ferocious rivalry between SkyClan and ThunderClan, especially as Owlstar takes power. Sparrowstar is definitely gone by the time of the River Kingdom's succession crisis, though, she's too battle hungry to rule for so long.

Or maybe Sparrowstar will end up inventing some kitty war crimes and become one of the first Dark Forest cases. After all, it's very in-character of BB!Skystar to not officialize an heir, and force Sparrow Heart to have to carve a path through his bio-kits for the power she is owed...

(Mumbling to self: and then that makes a pretty interesting claim for SkyClan during the River Kingdom succession crisis... "we need no claim to your throne to take it from you")

We'll see!

Oscar: They left already? Matilda: I told them to. Oscar: You gonna take ‘em up on their offer n’ stay a while? Matilda: It’s better if I don’t, I’d rather get back to normal. Oscar: It might be-… Matilda: No-.. I’ll get changed, then we’ll go. [Oscar offered naught but a small nod, there was no point arguing; he’d tried to put himself in Matilda’s shoes, tried to imagine giving up one of his own children-.. but he couldn’t. He wanted to tell her how proud he was, though he knew she wouldn’t want to hear that; not now] Matilda: It’s just-.. harder than I thought it’d be. [Matilda wiped a stray tear against her knee with a grimace and a huff of frustration; annoyed at her own emotions] Oscar: I can’t imagine… … [Courtney sank to the ground and tugged Robin toward her, his tear-streaked face red and puffy. She’d failed to calm him down ever since they’d entered the room, but he wouldn’t tell her what the problem was] Courtney: Honey-.. remember what we talked about? You have to tell me what’s wrong. Robin: It hurts… Courtney: What does? [Robin rubbed his face dejectedly; unable to articulate an answer, he promptly burst into tears again instead] Courtney: Have you hurt your eye? Your ches-… [Robin interrupted Courtney will a shrill, restless “NO!” Courtney scooped Robin into her arms, heading for the door; a screaming toddler was not what Matilda needed right now] Courtney: We’ll wait in the car. [Oscar nodded and nibbled at his nails, concerned; it wasn’t like Robin to throw such a fit. Maybe the terrible twos were a couple years late-.. or maybe it was just the atmosphere…]

@camsthisky Please enjoy this scene of Leo hugging an upset Mikey while they're in the middle of making sandwiches for everyone.

TMNT #124

And then please enjoy it even more when I compare it to this other scene of Leo hugging an upset Mikey.

TMNT #103

#that's his baby 😭 #no but let me be insane for a second and mention that when they were humans in feudal japan (before they reincarnated into turtles) #mikey used to sleep next to leo--and leo was the one who carried baby mikey around after their mom was murdered #and then when leo raph donnie and mikey were being executed by the foot clan--mikey was next to leo 😭😭😭 #and in that first hugging issue ^ the turtles look at a family scrapbook together--and mikey and leo sit next to each other #and then continue to sit next to each other while eating pizza with everyone else #and idk man idk it's the little things y'know #i just feel like they're both hurting over the loss of 3 of their adopted kids and so they sit next to each other #taking comfort in each other #IDW TMNT #tmnt leo #tmnt mikey

[strawberrystepmom]

tbh I think what has been wrong with me lately is knowing my mom was only a decade older than I’m going to be soon when she died

#cw parental loss #like it’s truly insane every time I remember my mom only lived for 39 years #what the fuck #like it weighs heavily every year i get older but idk this year feels different LMAO

Even if Jason didn't die...if he didn't go to Ethiopia.... would he have come back willingly?

I don't think so.

#jason todd #dc comics #bruce wayne #the boy was ready to cut his losses #it's why he left in the first place #the only reason why he went out of the country was because he thought he would have a second chance at a mom #but other than that he was well out the door #because if memory serves Bruce had already proven that he didn't trust Jason #and was slowly turning his back on him #so Jason left to go home (crime alley) and that's when he found out #that Catherine was his step mom #also I said second chance when I meant third #(Natalia Knight you'll always be famous)

gentle skin to skin contact is a rare gift in this movie . lucie’s [human] voice gave anna the power to persevere, not the closeness to seeing something otherworldly. the voice of god and the voice of lucie are similar in what they inspire; human connection is instinctive to want and the voice of a friend and the feeling of love is endlessly more (traditionally positively) moving than a mystical idea emphasizing the loss of life

#i think a lot of this is arguable actually #martyrs 2008 #being moved by something otherworldly or/and nonhuman is also very powerful but very isolating? only in terms of things that aren’t #religions really since religion is driven (i may be wrong) by the fact that it’s a *group* of people who believe and not just like . one. #again i might be wrong about that . i don’t know enough #rereading and sctual a mystical idea emphasizing loss of life is actually very powerful But driven by fear/negative emotions? maybe . #definitely not always though #martyrs #new french extremity #this post doesn’t make sense the more i reread it i #i’m just glad i got to get all of it out . my mom is refusing to let me talk about this movie to her
