@matigo He thought I should have it supported only when I needed it, but I’d kinda been using it as more of a security blanket than anything else. I’ve been without any support around the house for months now but hadn’t fully trialled it going to and from work.
I’ve been trialling not wearing any kind of protection on my knee while I’m out in public. I even tried jogging a little bit on my way to the train station after work. It seems like it’s getting stronger but I wonder if I’m being too adventurous. It’s been 8 months since the accident.
I was this close to sending a text to a certain someone to find out if they were ok1. But then I asked myself - would they do the same thing for me? Probably not. End result: nothing was sent.
Being mental health month and all that
@matigo I definitely agree with you there. The last thing I want to happen is to be prescribed any kind of anti depressants or similar. I’ve heard horrible things about them anyway. I find that most of the time it’s the anxiety I feel from a trauma based situation that is the hardest to deal with.
Another macOS means another clean install. But this time I’ve decided to take it a step further and declutter some older stuff I have in the cloud. I feel like I have crap everywhere.
@matigo No it’s not. But I have to give it a go, I also need to sort out a proper diagnosis for my anxiety. But, at the same time I didn’t realise that anxiety/depression are also symptoms of Hashimoto’s, which I also have.
@hybotics I don’t think it’s odd. In fact I kinda feel the same way. I find it hard to trust people at the best of times and maybe that’s the reason why I only have a few offline friends I can truly relate to. Then there’s my online friends - you guys - I’ve been through some tough times and I’m really glad I have all of you to get me through.

@matigo Fair enough. I should probably get some bloodwork done to make sure all my health related stuff is going ok. I’ve been thinking about seeing a new GP since mine is becoming increasingly harder to see as she only works part time and during the week.
@hybotics I’ve been watching many psychology videos on YouTube, not only to learn more about me and my introverted qualities but how to identify and deal with certain behaviours in people. It seems to be working well. There’s a couple of channels I’m now subscribed to as a result.
