My shell cracked this past weekend
  • Your story sounds similar to mine. I was still struggling with the labels so all I could say was "not cis" but that's a difficult thing to tell someone you've been in a relationship with for 10+years "hey.... I might not be who we thought I was" 😅

    I'm happy to hear she is accepting and working through it with you. Mine kind of had a crisis of her own trying to reconcile her side of feelings but is supportive and seems more confident in our relationship now, which is awesome. It's definitely not easy but the help is awesome!

    My therapist told me at one point "you haven't shown this much personality before" and I think I've seen her in and off a couple years now 😅 although, I got an antidepressant combo that may have helped that, and also probably allowed me enough mental bandwidth to realize I was an egg too!

    Also, out of curiosity, did you also spend too much time in egg_irl? 😂

  • Noise issues, overload and... breakcore?
  • I've noticed something similar with music.

    This is one that does it for me: https://youtu.be/4edAZvbU5gw

    The only thing I could come to, is that it's like it is noise, but not random and unpredictable. It's like organized or controlled noise,if that makes any kind of sense.

    Another example of the "noise" : https://youtu.be/forwNINpoVE

  • Me when fhe prozac finally staryed taking effect:

    Like damn, now that I'm not depressed my brain has opened up all kinds of blocked pathways

    Do you get anxious about attention from really inconsequential stuff?

    Hello, I am new here.

    I am undiagnosed but have been essentially told by my therapist yeah you probably have ADHD, and suggested possibly being on the spectrum too. So I thought maybe this could be a good place to explore this issue I've noticed recently.

    I mean stuff like personal appearance? It's fine, nobody will say anything negative and I know that, but thinking about changing my beard style or removing it all together or I'm a little bored with some of my clothing. But thinking about doing something about it, I just know everyone will have to address it and ask the same questions or make the same comments about it and, I don't know, like feel mentally exhausted just thinking about it.

    Does anyone else experience this? It feels incredibly silly and annoying.
