I'm not scared.

Me: *peacefully sketching*
Random person, looking over my shoulder: DiD yOu DrAw tHaT?!

No, the ghost drew it and put a pencil in my hand

This is why I'm too scared to draw in public ToT. That and I don't want to embarrass myself if I draw something that looks bad xl

I'd say that happens in most professions. I don't sweat it to a point. If it's a long undertaking it might be different but if it's short, I do what I can to help. Those same people may be the ones who mention your name when money is on the line.

Yeah, I'd be plenty happy to share my expertise as long as it doesn't make me have a panic attack. Not that I have too much yet, but I know I will in the future

If I think math is hard, it's not because I was raised to think math was hard, it's because it's f@<king hard for me personally to understand

Rip. Math is hard and easy for me at the same time. Like, I pick up on the concepts but then all the numbers swim around in my head and make me confused. Hello undiagnosed dyscalculia! Please let me learn my times tables! Please?

And the alternative, "Sorry, I am not a certified psychiatrist."

I would love to have a friend to talk to openly without feeling guilty about it, but I can't talk entirely openly with probably anyone my age about my problems because of this... xp

Like, "Hey, wanna hear about traumatizing incident no. 1, 2, 3, or 4? Do you think I have PTSD? Can you tell me when I'm being irrational and when I'm disassociating?"

Lil tidbits are prolly fine tho- like my therapist got her "contract suspended unexpectedly" after she had started working at a different place, before I was able to get set up there and make an appointment, so now we both need a therapist lol
