If it’s someone who gets on your nerves but isn’t doing something flaggable, then that’s a great use of the Ignore feature.

Right now?
S’all right.

No worries, it was just an attempt to avoid absolutes. I guess it’s also fueled by the trope of “we are all cool, except for [Fnord], **** that guy.” But I cannot think of anyone who fits.
Crap. It seems I love all y’all. Even that guy.
Take care of yourselves!

I’m not okay. I’m completely exhausted and unable to hold it together. I completely broke last evening and I fear a spiral may have started.

Know that there are mutants here who care about you. I care about you.
If you need to vent, let loose. That’s what this topic is for.

Hey, if you need to talk to someone in confidentiality, reach out. We all are here for you. And maybe someone is geographically close enough to lend a hand.
I mean it. If there is anything I can do to help you, let me know. Or let another happy mutant know.

Oh no, I hope you can relax or rest however works best for you, and at least stop the spiral.

Big hugs. And I feel you. I’m putting on a brave face, but all cracked and exhausted behind the mask.
I will sit here with you.

I’m yet another one who cares. You matter in my world, and I’m here if you need support, an ear, or a shoulder.

Thanks for the support. The spiral did start, the only question now is how long. This month has been hell. I’m stressed, overworked and terrified over the ongoing genocide against trans people. I’d managed to hold it together but Monday evening pushed me over the edge. By choice I had a very busy January, had fun and made a new friend and maybe a second, however I’m exhausted and was about to get a couple days off when suddenly that changed. That put me over the edge. Everything I’ve been suppressing is coming out uncontrollably— I started drinking today even though I know that’s only adding fuel to the fire.

Just remember, you have a bedroom here in Tijuana if you need it. I’m only 10 miles from the border to San Diego.

I’m on the edge of something similar, trying desperately to not fall over the edge. It’s scary as hell being trans right now, which adds a baseline level of stress to everything else we’re dealing with. I really hope you can get out of the spiral soon.
Always happy to talk if you need it. Hugs offered.

I totally missed this when comments were still open, but it really resonated with me and made me think others visiting this thread might find it helpful:
It’s almost like an analogy of the “housing first” approach to homelessness, but for when you already have a home but are struggling to keep your shit together. I found it well worth the 12 minute listen.

I’m feeling relatively better than I did a couple days ago. I’m not doing well, but I avoided the worst of it. I was able to get some rest and now I’m at least able to hold back tears again.
