  • what has worked for me is telling them you don’t have any actual plans to do anything

    spoiler

    example:
    Q: Do you ever feel like harming yourself or want to die?
    A: sometimes I just wish I didn’t exist, but I know that would hurt the people who care about me, so I just <take a nap, do a chore, etc> to distract myself, and keep telling myself this feeling is temporary, and that usually works

    and if you need help with the distraction part, then maybe try telling them that? like:
    A: sometimes I just wish I didn’t exist, but I know that would hurt the people who care about me, so I just <take a nap, do a chore, etc> to distract myself, and keep telling myself this feeling is temporary, and that sometimes works but it’s a struggle, and I wish I had some medication that I could take when I feel like that to help quiet things so I could get my head on straight and remember how much I have to live for

    you are so courageous for even trying meow-hug I believe in you.








  • oh hello, you’re talking about me

    I’m gonna be real with you, though: nobody cares about my takes. since I don’t have a Real Job and have only done paperwork (women’s work, donchano) and childcare (same) for the last two decades, none of my opinions count.

    being a perimenopausal lady has not been helping my case; as you all have experienced, I’m not exactly ✨stable✨

    it’s not great: women are either locked up in childcare until they’re perimenopausal psychopaths like myself, or their opinions are ignored because they didn’t raise children so what do they know.

    this plus a conversation today on /r/perimenopause has me ready to try to restart the Womyn’s Circles movement
