I GOT MY EARS PIECED lets-fucking-go lets-fucking-go lets-fucking-go lets-fucking-go lets-fucking-go lets-fucking-go lets-fucking-go lets-fucking-go lets-fucking-go lets-fucking-go lets-fucking-go lets-fucking-go lets-fucking-go lets-fucking-go lets-fucking-go lets-fucking-go lets-fucking-go lets-fucking-go lets-fucking-go lets-fucking-go lets-fucking-go

I've been telling myself that I was going to do so for like years at this point but it was always so far off thing in the future and I never made any concrete plans. Well this morning I thought to myself "you have to do it today or you will never do it" and I just decided on spot that fuck it today's the day. Overall it was such a fun experience, my roommate and I went and we just walked down the downtown afterwards

I've had such bad anxiety and agoraphobia my whole life and just the idea of doing something like this would have been too much like a couple months ago. My meds have really been helpful

I think I've been depressed my whole life. I'm not saying I've never had happy moments, but like after the moment is over the happiness fades and I just go back to being miserable, every day is filled with dread, I've never been able to really imagine the future. But like everything is different now, it's hard to even put into words the totality of it

WE LOVE TO SEE IT lets-fucking-go

I've had a pretty recent mental turnaround with my mental health too. Same thing — I can imagine the future now. A happy future, even. Not to say that I'm not still mentally ill, but I truly believe that things are going to get better now. I'm so happy to hear that you're experiencing something similar. Also I love my pierced ears, I'm thinking of getting some more piercings. Cute earrings are gender-affirming care cat-trans

Exactly, before it was possible to think of things getting better, but no matter how many times I said that it was going to get better I never believed myself. Now it is truly actually believable that it will be better

Hell yeah to getting more piercings!!

Love piercings and I love that you're doing well cat-trans

I remember getting mine done for the first time, fun times. Congrats ^^

That's great! I've been meaning to do the same but keep putting it off, maybe I should ask my friend tomorrow if they'd be willing to come with me to get them done soon.

And I'm so glad you're seeing the possibility of a nicer future now :cat-trans:

You should! Doing things spontaneously is fun
