You earned that Dr., use it eveeeerywhere. Seriously, even when ordering a pizza.

They were given no days off,

Now. Now would be the time. As I commented on someone else’s comment earlier, if you are feeling down, depressed, etc. for more than three weeks, you are looking at a chronic thing, and it’s like you have a vitamin deficiency and need, say, a vitamin B shot (which is also something to look into; sometimes a vitamin…

So I’ve been in therapy since October, mostly because of stress from my new that I started in July. At what point should I consider seeing a psychiatrist or looking into medication? Mostly because for the last 4 months, I’ve struggled with doing basic adulting task that weren’t previously an issue but now seem…

I spent my 37th consecutive one alone.  Yesterday I spent $30 on half-off Valentine’s Day candy.

This might stay in the greys but I thought I’d put it down in text somewhere. I feel like I’m finally starting to move past some of the grief of my divorce, and a large part of that was having something casual begin, exist, and then end in the nicest of ways.

This Jussie Smollett case is something else.

I had a pint of Ben and Jerry’s Chocolate Fudge Brownie. No hard chips or nuts to mess up my sensitive teeth!

On top of the grossness, I had to keep working from home because there is nothing more fun than food poisoning except maybe suffering from food poisoning and not wanting to barf in communal toilets at work AND being a single woman repeatedly heaving in the office restrooms so that rumors start up that you’re pregnant!…

Honestly, there needs to be a national registry of humans who should never be allowed to be pet owners.

I have interviews coming up this week! I’m super nervous. They are all great places and I would love to work at any of them— but one is clearly my top choice. I am excited and nervous and trying to keep it together. But AHHH! I am awkward and I struggle to come of as personable in interviews. I want to be charming,…

Anxiety is a totally reasonable response to an unsettled day to day. It’s not stupid. Pulling for you that one of those other seven or so apps does the trick.

I just finished Taco Bell on the couch. I hope the other applications take hold and you have employers fighting over you. Stay strong. You're okay, and you're going to get what you want out of your life soon. It's all going to work out.

I’M IN THE GREYS so it’s like why even post but...

How has this guy convinced you that you are the problem? That you are not allowed to express yourself as the person you are? That it is not okay for you to express your thoughts and feelings? That you have to tippy-toe around his needs while circumventing your own? That you would totally be happy and have kids…

I cut off a narcissistic parent not too long ago and Christmas and New Year’s Eve were great without that guilt-tripping edge - and the dread leading up to it - to them! Enjoy the hell out of your day. Treat yourself, definitely spend it with someone who accepts you for who you are, accepts you even in case you get…

WE HEARD THE HEARTBEAT THIS WEEK!!!!!!

A pretty chill start to year so far, for me! Which is certainly good, and an improvement on last year, which didn’t have the best emotional place for me to start from. (Granted, in hindsight, that was the beginning of ending some things that needed to be, resetting my boundaries and expectations in certain areas,…
