The scariest thing of all is a world without rainbows

No, friends. The scariest ever is a world without all of you.

I'd totally be scared if I didn't have myself in my world

I'd love if my world didn't have me

...mdom, do you want to talk?

Hm, I feel like I've talked about my depression already.

I don't recall so, but I admit I might have missed it. The past two weeks had me rotating in my grave computer chair like crazy. If it helps you to know, you're a fun and kind person who would be very much missed if you left.

Thanks, DbM ^^

It's a feeling that lives with me for years. I'm in the 'stuck' area of the treatment.

Whenever someone asks me, "How are you today?" I always reply with "Oh, I'm good." Even though I just wanna tell the truth and say, "Well, :] I'm alive." And watch their reaction.

Being alive already means success when you battle with those feelings. Pat yourself on the back for being alive.

That's not what my parents say |D

:] Ah. *shrug* It is technically true on a literal physical level. <x} But I'm a damn liar for sayin' "good" all the time. Even to my therapist. :/ It's just a default phrase I suppose. It's code for, "let's move on from this old small talk question, and get to the nitty gritty." /x} But luckily I do tell him honestly how I feel later on. <:} And sort through those feelings.

Eff your parents then. Be proud of those small everyday victories!

I ate today. And I'm proud of myself for seeking food. :}
Like that?

Exactly like that.

I need food I'm poor broke and foodless

Totally get not even wanting to say "I'm okay" when someone wants to make small talk. But then they may not understand the small victories of things like, "I brushed my teeth today!"

Do it like me, don't answer, just reply immediately with 'how are you?' if you keep asking, you don't have to answer

I sometimes use that line, but for complete strangers it can be awkward because they already have the "Good!" reply loaded up.

"How are you today?"

Acceptable unacceptable answers:
"F*ckin' TIRED!"
"I'm me, this time."
"Hungry for JUSTICE!"
"I'm not sure, I didn't decide yet."
"I'm so depressed and I hate everything that is happening...how are you?"
"Well, I'm not on fire."
"I'm conscious."
"Sick, with a bad case of DGAF."
"I forgot. I'll get back to you when I remember."
"How is ANYone today?"
"Absolutely..."
"I'm nice. Can't promise I still will be in the next four hours though."
"I'm not curled up in bed so, I'm doin' pretty horribly."
"Well now, I'm upset."
"I'm a diamond, what are you today?"
"Thank you for asking. I'm flattered."
"*sigh* Just Potatoes."
"I'm unstoppable! *proceeds to do something nobody can do to stop you about*"
"I'm in love!~ Let me tell you alllllllll about it!"
"I want to cry, but it's socially risky so, I won't."
"I'm clean. What about you..?"

Will have to try some of those out. We can make it a contest to see who gets the best reaction.

Ooh, loving the Hungry For JUSTICE! one!

oh a good deflection is to talk about the weather

how are you? 'ah this heat, it's terrible, but how are you?'

Another deflection, "hehe, your epidermis is showing." x'D
