Ordered a few more of the same stretchy black skirt (with pockets!) for myself. Started thinking more on permanent hair removal options; there's an electrolysis place relatively close to me at a price point i'd consider reasonable. Tired of "okay" results from an electric razor and just want it all gone (everything below the neck, but prioritizing the "undercarriage" as a starting point).
20 something days till my first psychologist appointment for ADHD evaluation... id like to be able to actually do something with my life sooner rather than later. For all the stress the world puts on mental health its a little screwed up how long the systems that be make you sit and wait 😬
Otherwise, same old tired me with an increasing awareness of how bad my anxiety really is and how its hurt me in life. Very lonely but also completely paralyzed and unable to maintain any kind of relationship with other people; I haven't had a real friend group since like middle school.
