“I had planned to make soup but was too exhausted to cook” dinner

“I had planned to make soup but was too exhausted to cook” dinner

Eggs, cheddar, ham slices, two kinds of pickles, pickled small onions in balsamic vinegar, pickled red onions, chili mayo, faxe kondi for drink and I also had a single slice of untoasted toast bread to use to eat the runny egg yolk.

I had planned to make soup today from veggies in the fridge but I didn’t buy anything else at the store and even forgot toilet paper and when it was time to cook I was too tired. This was what I managed to put together, it’s basically all I have in the fridge except for soup ingredients

Does anyone else’s teenager have a serious attitude problem?

My dog is a little bit over 13 months old.

She started munching on my blanket today. I told her to stop. She looked at me and continued. I told her to stop again. She stopped. For 2 seconds, then continued. I told her to stop again. The then held the blanket in her mouth, stopped biting, but then gave me the meanest side eye. She did stop though, but like, the audacity

Peephole cover

I bought the wooden part bare, but cut out a circle in the back and painted it myself by my own design

I just found this sub and I really needed it when my puppy was little. Update, kind of.

Not technically an update since I never made an original post but it’s kind of an update since I’m a lot better now and mainly over the puppy blues.

My dog is a year old now, her birthday was last year. Soon it’s been a year since I got her.

The first months with my puppy was hell. Biting non stop, non stop monitoring her and not a moment for myself, I live in the 3rd floor so I was up and down with her constantly to potty train and she didn’t let me sleep through the night because she had to go out. It was horrible, I have some mental health issues and taking care of my puppy non stop took a toll on me. The first few weeks I cried non stop. I got really suicidal. Please don’t judge but I had periods where i absolutely hated my puppy. I felt like she had ruined my life. I of course never hurt her or stopped taking care of her, and I knew deep down that she didn’t ruin my life, I was the one who chose to get her. But I wasn’t doing good. My sister had a baby around the same time and one of the mothers in her maternity group had postpartum depression and my sister said I sounded exactly like her.

I thought about giving up my puppy so many times. But i just couldn’t get myself to do it and i just kept going. My puppy took forever to potty train and to let me sleep through my night. The sleep deprivation was horrible and i think that’s why I was struggling so much. I didn’t feel like I could connect with my dog because I felt like she was torturing me when she disturbed my sleep. I was out with her for 3-4 times every night, the vet checked her and she wasn’t sick and no bladder infection. I talked to my trainer around it who gave me some advice and very quickly the night peeing stopped. I think that was a turning point for me and her really. She was about 7 month at that point and it was also around this time she was fully potty trained, all of it sort of clicked within the same few days, she also calmed down a lot around that period of time.

Things are a lot better now. She’s a teenager and doing teenage things obviously, there’s good and bad periods, but I feel like I’m myself again. I can take a shower without having to worry if she’s doing something, I can leave her alone without issues, I can paint my nails and let them dry fully, I can dress nice without having to worry if she’ll bite my clothes. She’s currently sleeping next to me on the couch while I’m writing this and watching tv.

It’s still a lot occasionally and I still get overwhelmed. We have some issues when we’re walking on working on and the walks are hard sometimes, but I’ve been seeing a professional and I have gotten a lot of advice. Sometimes she’s a menace at home, as I said it comes and goes. But she truly loves me. I can see on the way she acts that I’m the love of her life. Sometimes in the morning she lays still and waits for me to wake up, she can hear when I wake up and the greeting I get is a lot lol. Sometimes when we cuddle if feels like she wants to crawl under my skin to be even closer to me. And seeing how happy she is to see me makes it all worth it.

So yeah, it does get better. We’re not all the way there, we’re still not partners in crime, but we’ll get there.

Cabbage dinner

It’s been a long week. So dinner was cabbage (not sure what this specific cabbage is called in English), olive oil, salt, pepper and white balsamic creme. It tasted pretty good. I only ate half a cabbage so I’ll probably have the same for dinner tomorrow

I made this little guy a few years back

My creative flow stopped a few years ago, I haven’t really touched anything creative since. I’ve been wanting to come back and now I kind of want to make twin of this one. I’m fairly postive I still have the cardstock and pattern somewhere

Rygeost and pickled stuff girl dinner

I’m barely home these days so cooking and most grocery shopping makes no sense as I would end up with a lot of spoiled food, so this dinner is rygeost (smoked lowfat soft cheese) tomatoes, two kinds of pickled cucumber, pickled peppers and some balsamic vinegar pickled baby onions

Berries and air fryer chicken tenders

I was craving berries but couldn’t find enough good raspberries in the wild so I bought both raspberries and strawberries. I’m leaving for vacation tomorrow so I didn’t feel like cooking and I had these chicken tenders in my freezer so this was what I ended up with. And a crispy cold, sugar free faxe kondi

Girl picnic, just me, my dog and my stuffed peppers

There was also some pickled cucumber but I sadly ate them before I thought about taking a picture

My favorite sourdough bread baked this morning that I bought for delicious tapas tonight, but I didn’t realize how late I would be home, fridge is empty and I’m too tired to go grocery shopping so it’s just topped with way too old butter instead…

Sourdough, old butter, an innocent smoothie and a monster. I don’t even really like butter on bread… but I’m hungry and it was cold so it was hard to spread out

Does anyone else feels like people change their demeanor or tone when you mention you suffer from schizophrenia in either a comment or post?

Basically what the title says. I often experience that people will change their tone or demeanor when they realize I suffer from schizophrenia. It can be a totally normal conversation where I’m talking about a normal experience or a normal situation but as soon as the word “schizophrenia” is mention they either get really condescending, don’t believe me or just mean or something different. It’s obviously not all that does that but I experience it quite often. It’s also one of the reasons why my profile is hidden so of they go an luck at my profile they can’t see I suffer from schizophrenia

I wasn’t sure what flair to use for this sorry

Therapist told me to have a life outside therapy but at the same time expects me to be available at all times

I just left an appointment with my therapist and occupational therapist where they said I need a life outside therapy. We agreed to find a new meeting where we were all available, my therapist said she would text me with some new dates to try and find a day I was available. She did not, she just texted me with a new date without asking if I could, I’m not available that day because I do actually have a life outside of therapy…

They can’t tell me to get a life outside of therapy and at the same time expect me to be available at all times

It will probably be fixed at some point, I just find it rather annoying

Long day and my apartment is boiling, so koldskål with kammerjunker and a few strawberries for dinner

My apartment is 26°C in the shade. It haven’t even been a particularly hot day today. At some point I get used to the heat but the transition to the heat is always a bit rough

It’s so odd because I looked at the supposed mother plant two days ago and thought “that’s a nice plant” and was thinking if I could sneak out a baby some day when it started making babies. But I couldn’t see any (so the babies might have come from another one). It was also a coincidence I even saw the babies, I was drinking a cup of cacao and I was going to take the empty cup with me to my appointment for coffee to not waste the cup but changed my mind last minute and threw out my cup only to see the babies. I love spider plants and haven’t had one for a while. I’m sorry for my long rant I am just exited. There was 5 separate babies and a little extra leaf with a few nodes

You should see the waiting room at my psych center. I can’t take pictures sadly but this sub would love it, it’s a sun room with skylights and lots of huge plants!

this is one year 4 months of collection. the edit bellow is a Q&A i did before that covers most peoples questions.

Q: What's wrong with you? A: i don't know. If there's anything wrong with me it has to be pretty mild as I maintain an active social circle and have had several relationships. Some have speculated I have OCD and while this behavior would fall under that condition, I don't exhibit any other symptoms. So I don't think that's it. I never do this to the point of hurting myself i bruised myself once on accident over 6 years of doing this.

Q: Do you do any drugs? A: I smoke weed and did mushrooms for a prolonged period of time, but that was in the middle of this behavior not before it, so I don't think that's what caused this.

Q: How can you not find this disgusting? A: its literally me, i have a pretty high bar for disgust in general. Plus the alcohol treatment I use takes care of microbial concerns.

Q: what does it smell like? A: dust

Q: What does it feel like? A: when the cube is fully dry, it feels almost like a dried out eraser, or a dusty brick. It's not as dense as you would think, it's very light for its size.

Q: Does anyone know? A: No nobody in my life knows. I've never had a reason to bring it up and it wouldn't come up in conversation. If I was shown this series of posts by a friend I would feign shock and disgust.

Q: how often do your shower/clean yourself? A: i shower whenever my hair feels bad. This usually takes 2 days, resulting in me showering every other day a minimum of 3 days a week. more if i do something strenuous. I wash my hands every time I use the restroom, after I do the dishes and after work.

Q: Do you have any skin conditions? A: as far as I'm aware no. I do exhibit some skin symptoms when stressed for a prolonged period of time, such as peeling on my hands and dermatographia. Whether any of these have an effect on skin production i have no clue. I've seen some people claim that the presence dead skin rolls is abnormal for those who believe this please search for italy towels or korean skincare towels what I'm doing here is a very similar thing.

Q: Is the cube a part of a larger project? A: currently, not. Aside from some vague musings about using it to make a sculpture of myself there is no plan for the cube other than simple accumulation.

Q: Will you bite the cube? A: my asking price is five thousand dollars for a video of me biting the cube.

Q: Why a cube? A: it is a cube for no other reason than that it is the simplest shape to make that wouldn't roll off a flat surface.

Q: Why did you post this? A: i was looking for others who have done a similar thing like me and i saw that a few other people have posted similar things but none have shown a collection of comparable size. I wanted there to be more evidence of this behavior online for others like me and curious people as it's a hard thing to search for.

Q: Why? A: i don't know it started about 6 years ago. I would rub my arms and I would put the resulting strands off the side and then throw them away. To make throwing away a pile of dust more manageable, I would compact it, so that way it would be easier to pick up and throw away. I've always had an issue with upkeeping a clean room my living space goes through a gradual decline and then a sudden cleaning so when I started. I would have random piles of skin that I would throw away when cleaning. I then decided to try and compact these piles but by this point they were dry and unable to be moulded into each other. I used water for a bit, but that had an upper ceiling. My first experiment with alcohol proved a reliable method for continuing to add to the pile so I did for a year stright and I plan to continue until I have a reason to stop.

Q: Can I put these posts into a YouTube video making fun of you? A: Sure, go right ahead. I know what I'd do is disgusting to most and I wouldn't be posting it publicly if I wasn't okay with it being out there.

Q: Could you pretty please with a cherry on top KILL YOURSELF? A: Nah I don't feel like it
