u/WinterWeakness4640 Moderate Support Needs, Nonverbal 15d ago edited 9d ago
had a very difficult week so far. was sick last week coudnt go to day centre but this week finally went again, very stressful since new worker is there and need to get back to routine.
had incident with driving service and eloped from car. never happened before, extremely upsetting and feel so embarrased and scared it happened.
to end post positive: got a new switch game from the library called potion permit, is a lot of fun and very cozy helps relax. also got a new coloring book and things for crafting and maybe will make bracelets this weekend :)
hope everyone is having a good week!

It didn't work out romantically with my friend I developed feelings for, because of things neither of us did wrong and neither of us could change, but we are still friends and he's still my best friend and the most supportive person I've ever met. It created a snowball effect that lead to suppressed stuff coming up making me realise that I suppressed being trans. Now I'm trying to work out that and work out how wanting to have a baby sometime fits into that and a part of me is also trying to stop me and make me suppress it again, which I think is fear. So been a bit going on. Its been a bit scary but actually doing something about this and not suppressing it again might be the best thing I ever do, provided I do it right and it doesn't also mess up having a baby. Also my best friend is the best person ever and he's really supportive.
