It was an incredibly large antibiotic pill because I didn’t want to shower (it took away from reading) and I got impetigo.
Im never going to get everything right. Allowing myself this allowed me to get some of the more important things right.
I have an unhealthy relationship with food. Oddly, the thing that really finally made it click was playing the Sims, and I noticed my Sim would get up & grab a snack from the fridge every single time they were bored.
I’m a lazy follower who never figured out who I was, so I just followed the path of least resistance. As a result, I don’t like myself very much and cope with sarcasm and wit.
