There’s a supermarket nearby that has a ‘quiet hour’ every day, mostly aimed at neurodivergent customers. I try to go at that time, it’s a much less stressful experience.

Do you care to elaborate?

I’ve tried getting into both a few times, to the point of noticing some benefits, but I fall off the wagon bc everything I read about it quickly goes into religious territory.

No no, it means the belief that nothing is known or can be known of the existence or nature of Furries.

Yeah I know the so called justice system threw innocent until proven guity out of the window a while ago, but the rest of us shouldn’t.

That was my guess as well, and was thinking what would the prompt have been… “Make it sound empathetic by not really”?

It’sreally good that you are seeing a therapist. I think it’s better to have professional help whenever possible.

If one is not inclined to social gatherings but still feel a need for something to signal this passage (or any other), a good option is to perform a personal ritual of choice.

Human brains seem to be inclined to appreciate symbolism.

I zoomed to read the package bc I like when they use parody brand names. “Swodnoc”.

This wasn’t my case, my parents were very well adjusted for the most part but it did happen to a former partner. It was usually accompanied by a deep silence and denial. Hope it gradually gets more normalized to at least talk about it; even if therapeutic alternatives may not be available, having support from friends and family is a huge improvement.

The only good part of calls is when someone’s pet gets into frame. It’s usually cats bc they can jump into desks, but sometimes someone will pick their dog up for us.

This reminds me of a sentence I read recently:

“Mental health issues tend to run in families”.

So, like gpt

The way I understand it is that, since most of the time it’s animals with fur or feathers, they’re not really exposing themselves in the same way as humans would in the same situation. Thus, in universe, clothes are a styling choice.

Except for Donald Duck covering his lower body when losing his shirt. That one doesn’t make sense in any case.

Gotta love how unambiguous TLA are.
