"But one particular acquaintance loved to pick fights framed as “genuine curiosity” and I, still a chronic people pleaser, would try to respond with disarming dialogue, hoping to stand my ground while achieving my goal of having all 8 billion people on planet Earth like me. One day she pushed me too far though and I politely told her to “fuck off”. "
These may be some of my favorite sentences of all time and I feel them in my bones. thank you for describing to a tee what I have done so many times (especially in the vein of trying to say being a republican or more conservative isn't bad, but the Cheeto boss is and none of what he perpetuates or does is normal -for a myriad of reasons that I think will be reasonable to most everyone- because omg wtf) and also giving me a fab laugh before 10am. x
So interested to hear how your adderall break plays into all this!!I’ve often wondered if it was one of the tools I (subconsciously) used to support my disordered eating. The first time I stopped taking it I realized I probably hadn’t felt the actual sensation of *hunger* in about 15 years 😬
yeah, I'm glad you mentioned this because the "holiday" has been incredibly enlightening-i'd love to share more! the two month break has now come and gone, but we're sold for good on the adderall free life. when I tell you it's a jumpscare every time I walk into a room and all the cabinets are opened though...JAZUS!

And thank you, kat, for making me laugh before 11! I’m grateful to know you can relate!
