The autistic urge to not say goodbye when you leave work, to avoid some awkward socialization.
Only to be called out by your boss..
Fun fact this happened to me today and it's my birthday. Happy anxious birthday to me

anyone else have multiple traumatic memories associated specifically with holidays/family vacations? because that is a topic I never see discussed in all the So You Had A Shitty Childhood, Now What? self-help books i've been reading. but for me, it was a significant thing. and the more i think about it the more it seems like this would be an (unfortunately) common experience. would be grateful to hear if this matches other peoples' experiences...
#not a shitpost#serious post#ask to tag#tw trauma#cptsd#c-ptsd#and if so we should TALK about it#because it means there are a whole group of survivors out there whose mental health regularly worsens during holidays#like i know i am most certainly not the only person who feels an undefined Dread hanging over christmas/my birthday/july 4 etc#bc too many shitty things happened during those times and now my brain is hypervigilant bc traditionally these are the Danger Times#and this seems like it would be particularly common for survivors of abusive/dysfunctional households (aka most people with c-ptsd)#because holidays/vacations typically mean 1) the whole family is together/being forced to interact#2) and undergoing external stressors e.g. travel/relatives aka 'outsiders' visiting/routines & coping mechanisms being interrupted etc#3) there is social pressure for this to be a Fun Family Bonding Experience which only highlights the cracks in the foundation#and exposes the common Everything Is Fine/We Are A Happy Family lie#4) the cognitive dissonance of feeling tired/anxious/stressed/afraid during a time when you are 'supposed' to be Making Good Memories#and then everyone is angry/tired/anxious/triggered and things boil over and something or someone goes Very Wrong#weird that i'm posting this in october when halloween is...sort of the ONLY holiday i have only good and happy feelings towards#i got lucky there#also i have positive feelings towards Labor Day but that's for socialist reasons

my friend's birthday is ONLY 3 MONTHS AWAY so i'm already working on something for her because she deserves the best.
she LOVES grell (and she really wants the artfx figure but no. i can't afford that) so i was thinking about a keychain? or a print? something along those lines

I’m feeling quite sad about how much the active bts fandom on tumblr has shrunk and/ or how selective the community has become regarding content interaction. I’ve heard people pointing out a clique-building here lately, and while I’m well aware of closer mutual circles existing – and I can only speak on behalf of my friend group here – these pretty much develop naturally when there’s just no one else who reacts, reblogs from and talks to you anymore except for these handful of people. I don’t like that some people perceive these “cliques” as “exclusive”, for example to content creators only. that’s bullshit; it’s certainly not great to have only other cc’s support your work because they personally know how much time and effort it takes. also, knowing how lovely most of these people are, you’d get immediately followed back and showered with love too as soon as you’d even show a speckle of kindness on a regular basis, regardless of whether you make gifs yourself or not. ccs dedicating sets to each other isn’t a sign of exclusivity, but rather us holding onto and appreciating people who still give us at least some motivation to create and post in the first place anymore, because there’s quite literally no one else left by now.

Boo! Birthday Heket be upon ye
Tumblr media
I’m either too early or too late but either way I crashed back into your inbox like the kool aid man to say I hope you had a nice birthday!:D and that your are enjoying or have enjoyed your trip!
Didn’t have much energy to do a digital drawing so markers to the rescue to make it look a little nicer-
Really wanted to make something a little special just because your shamura drawing literally gave me sanity I swear- things just kept getting worse so I would just pull out the drawing and stare at it and I would feel a little better and judging by how things are going I’ll be doing that a lot more for as weird as that sounds-
Okay I not only missed out on the previous heket drawing but A SECOND HEKET DRAWING AS WELL?? I heavily regret not checking my inbox sooner cause I was missing OUT dude omg. My birthday is on may 2nd so you're not too late, I used up like alllllllllll my money on that cali trip so I was fully expecting the celebration to be over already, but the party was in my inbox the whole time????
Thank you sincerely for the b-day art, I get real fuckin moody on like ALL my birthdays because I spend em alone and am always broke so I usually just sit with my own thoughts every may 2nd. I'm honestly tempted to just start asking y'all if I can print your drawings and put them on my wall or something because it's like the highlight of my day when someone draws me something. Even if it's a mutual interest I'm still like THIS VIDEO GAME FROG DRAWING...WAS FOR ME SPECIFICALLY...AND THAT MAKES ME WANT TO LOOK AT IT FOREVER.
I'm very glad the shamura drawing helped you feel better despite everything, this one definitely perked me up so I'm just happy the feeling is mutual!! Dw about sounding weird cause I'm just glad my mura blessing art could do you some good. I'm sorry things kept getting worse on your end, I know I can't really do anything besides offer my support through text but I'm like manifesting good things happening to you with my limited powers. I'm telepathically beaming good vibes into your mind >:)

just a reminder its okay to feel sad or weird on your birthday. theres no rulebook on how to behave for holidays. you might be depressed and just happen to be sad that day. you might have a dissociative or psychotic disorder that makes the one day about you confusing, and makes you have trouble with your identity as you are suddenly a year older. you might have anxiety and dont like having the attention be on you. whatever the reason is, its ok to feel however you feel on your birthday. you may see other people throw parties and celebrate their days and thats also fine. but just because other people behave that way doesnt mean you have to too. its your day to feel how you feel, do what feels comfortable to you, and enjoy it or just treat it like any other day. you are never wrong or ungrateful for feeling how you feel.

Generally love how anyone who at least watched a little Horrid Henry agrees on one thing: those parents were beyond shit and Henry will very likely go no contact as soon as he's an adult.

There’s something so healing about people actually caring and remembering your birthday. The majority of my teen birthdays I cried bc only my immediate family remembered, and the occasional friend would remember but any birthday wishes were usually prompted after i said something.
It’s so healing to have your best friends wait until midnight to send you the sweetest messages that make you tear up because of how amazingly they talk about you. I’m not materialistic, but having your friends remember the things you like and putting time and effort into your gifts, letters and cards that it genuinely made me sob on my 18th and 19th birthday.
I remember my 17th birthday where only family said happy birthday and made an effort, and I had to work late and again no one remembered. Bc I share my birthday with my sibling and it was late, I couldn’t even cut into my cake. I blew out my separate candles crying and hugging my parents bc it felt so horrible that none of my friends cared to remember.
Flash forward to 18/19, and I’m surrounded by the most beautiful souls I’ve ever met, who actually give a shit about me. They took the time to learn about me, my interests, my likes. I really struggle to make friends, so to have been so lucky to have the ones I have, I’ll treasure them always.
