No worries <3 Thank you :) Miss ya <3

No don't worry, it really is okay. I didn't want to bother you. Yes I miss things pre covid too. I had made studying friends and was doing very well academically. I've lost contact with almost everybody because I couldn't pay my phone for a while. I have my hobbies to keep me busy. I appreciate this casual conversation though. It helps in those moments of missing my friends, most of the time i'm fine though. I hope your move went well and everything.

Yes, I have my test rescheduled on September 10th. I think it'll go okay. I'm sort of tired of riding the bus, people smoke and the smell isn't pleasant.

Prior to developing anxiety, I had not seen a doctor in about 10 years, since I was a small child. My doctor did contact me and asked me to come in (i've been avoiding it again). I'll have to go to refill medication...not really looking forward to it at all. It's like, my main source of dread right now.

I'm trying to eat healthier too, but that's not the easiest thing either. I don't like many vegetables. My mother has told me a few times "I can't live off oatmeal" and I understand what she's saying. It's all I really eat anymore. Do you like most vegetables? I could really do with eating more, but I don't find it easy to try them without gagging. I know I'm not getting proper nutrients, so i'll just have to brave it.

Hi Sheep! Sorry that it's taking so long to complete the tag team. I have been pretty busy with studies but I will try to complete it as soon as I can!

Hi Janna :) I'm not on here anymore but I want to say hi to you <3

Have you gotten to visit any museums recently? I think those two were the highlights of my trip and I think the coolest I had ever visited. Since you mentioned getting to travel frequently, there must be so many cool places. As much fun as I think traveling is, there's probably cons i'm not aware of. I'd probably get homesick.

I feel similarly, because I've had the same experience of needing to explain that simply being around those things elevates my heart. I think some doctors are more understanding than others. I remember one particularly friendly man guided me through a breathing exercise. Unrelated, but I do remember hearing a public speaking tip that it helps to stare at the back of the room. Honestly it never helped me much, but I'm sure it helps some people. I'm nervous just from standing up there.

Today wasn't a great day, unfortunately. I was finally ready to take my test at the DMV, I even had all my things gathered. (social security card, id, birth certificate, a letter with proof of residence). They even took my photo in advance. Shortly after, I was told "this isn't enough proof of my current address". I was basically told to leave and make another appointment. And now I can't get in until September 10th. I was getting quite excited about driving, so now I've been glum. It disappointed my mother too because she planned a celebratory lunch at a chinese restaurant. We ended up going anyways, just the two of us.

thanks for wishing me happy birthday <3

Yeah but unfortunately the whole celebration has been delayed to begin the start of September, due to my presents arriving late.

Hope you're doing well! (:

Hi sheep! Guess what my birthday is in 9 days and it's gonna be a Pokémon fun style birthday!

Here's the news article on it. https://www.cnn.com/2021/08/03/us/titanic-museum-iceberg-injured-trnd/index.html. Unfortunate, hopefully they recover well. It was a very nice museum.

Yeah there's been times I've had to take the blood pressure test more than once because I panic when it squeezes. (Often I just forget to breath). I'm supposed to check in for anxiety related purposes every 6 weeks, which might sound oddly frequent. After being hospitalized multiple times the doctor wanted me checking in often. I'm not having anxiety 24/7 all the time for no reason anymore, so I admit I stopped making these appointments a priority.

It's quite fun, even though for persona at first I was worried about finding the art style off-putting. But for sure I would be willing to try it The World Ends With You. Looks like it's a mobile game? Also what's the character like? (fufu).

It's mostly that I have a tendency to be a huge klutz and mess things up. (like standing in the wrong line, signing my name in a completely wrong spot). Even though I'm pretty well spoken, I can be a ditz and do the stupidest things. (like at the post office i thought the lady behind me was a worker and i asked her for stamps). Another time i was looking for a bathroom at a restaurant...and walked in the kitchen. I've gotten anxiety for these continuous screw ups. I guess on the positive side, people around me find it very amusing. So the DMV terrifies me, I feel like it's the perfect place for me to have one of these screw ups. Anyways my appointment is pushed back until tuesday.

I don't remember 2002. I guess we don't form memories until a certain age. My memory started getting much more concise around 2005-2006. Anything before that comes in blurs.

Thank you!

Hello! I very recently joined this site. I'd like to share some ideas for new Gyms/Elite Four/Champion in the near future. Which thread should I likely put that in?

(Sorry for bad English >_<)

It's okay. Hopefully you had fun traveling. It was bizarre, but you know those historical images I shared? Shortly after we left, there was a freak accident inside the museum we visited. A wall collapsed and hospitalized 3 people. I read it with my mother and we were in disbelief. We had even visited that same spot.

Do heights bother you in general or is it just a flight related thing? My anxiety isn't from common fears, but I'm set into panic by the weirdest things. I don't like feeling exposed so instead of fully laying down I sleep elevated. Being forced down in dentist chairs, doctors beds, anything touching my chest or squeezing me (like blood pressure cuffs) will cause my anxiety. But I can ride roller coasters, zipline, mountain climb just fine, swimming, biking is all fine too.

Ah never finished FFIV sadly. I got far but when we got home I just haven't felt like playing it anymore. I have been playing persona 5. It's odd that I like anime style games but never really got into watching anime

Next Saturday I'm taking a short written test, if I pass I'll be eligible to drive (under supervision). It's quite exciting. Less nervous about the test because I know for sure I'll pass. More nervous about visiting the DMV. I hate visiting them, the crowds and lines are awful and I'm hoping to get in super early to avoid some of it.

Also a random thought but some you guys join dates amaze me. Especially ones from 2006 and prior. I was around preschool age so it's so cool thinking some people already had accounts.

omg hello! :o

traveling in August so expect delayed replies!

Roller coasters are always so fun. There are only 7 giga coasters in the world (basically extreme sized coasters) and we live relatively near one of them. Some people will tell you it's hardly noticeable when you go upside down, but that's not exactly true. You'll just be so in the moment you it doesn't bother you. But bravery comes in different forms, what i'm brave in one aspect I probably lack bravery in other ways.

It's still up in the air if I'll be flying (awful pun), we'll know by September. Doesn't it get easier if you've done it multiple times? I think that's how it works for people, you do something enough until it feels easy. Some stuff doesn't get easier I guess.

I almost finished the entirety of FFIV. That's what happens when you have 25+ hours in a car. Pokemon Snap just added new free content too (As you might already know). I haven't tried unite yet. Weirdly as I've gotten older, I ended up becoming more of an introvert and as a result, began a strong preference towards solo games. When I was around 13 I only played MMO's.

I was feeling adventurous so I jumped on a ride called "Mystery Mine". It was completely dark and eventually flipped upside down. The zipline was very relaxing compared to that. I also rode a backwards roller coaster. My worst anxiety is usually in line, but when I'm on the ride I start feeling okay. Nope, didn't encounter many bugs. Also I attended two concerts, but they weren't the highlights for me. And went to a water park, didn't take pictures there because it wasn't the most notable place. (Still lots of fun).

Thankfully I'm not that scared of heights, so the mountains were fine. Being on a plane scares me more because I don't know what it feels like. Most of my anxiety stems from not knowing. That's why when I'm in line I get anxiety, but when I'm on a ride and getting situated I feel better.

Have you played anything else interesting lately? I downloaded FFIV to keep me busy during downtime, and I almost finished the entire game. Pokemon Showdown 4 player is super fun. There's also Pokemon Unite which is free to download on switch.

I feel quite okay right now, thanks. It was refreshing being away from home for a while. Not completely magically better, but in a better way than before I left. (if that makes sense).

Hey check this out, I'm back from my trip. Luckily I only got sick towards the very end, and now I feel okay. (None of my family got sick).

Anyways it was a great time. Saw lots of artifacts from the Titanic (Chessboard, Silverware, Glasses), went all the way up in the mountains, rode a zipline, (kind of scared me but it ended up being okay).

I have covid. Sorry, this might delays these messages even more. I'll update you when I feel okay. Just fatigued and feverish.

I admit I stopped masking and I've been hanging out in large crowds. I was fully vaccinated so I tossed caution out the window.

It's mostly the thought of being up in the sky. It's unfathomable to me. I'm still curious to how it feels. I'd just rent a movie to watch. I guess take-off is the scariest part.

Honestly, I haven't even been doing the requests. I'd rather just see the new levels. Are you a completionist? I'm certainty not one. I've mostly just done story related games.

I stopped taking the prescribed medication regularly. I do get slightly lightheaded, but for the most part I ignore it. But yeah apologies for the slowness, it's not you personally. Have been fighting depression for a while (even though I'm super quiet about it) but it's gotten really bad. I feel defeated.

I keep forgetting to mention, Pokemon Showdown has added 4 player random battles. It's really fun so you might want to check it out. (As long as you don't get ganged up on). Getting something like Xerneas can make you a target.
