im an agoraphobe and im starting a job tomorrow. im so scared i want to cry

so after stalling relentlessly on finding a new job because of how shitty my mental health has become, i finally found one for the first time in four months and i start tomorrow. it got so bad to the point where i genuinely couldn't leave my bed or my room because just being out of the house makes me want to have an anxiety attack. i literally had 3 in one week at my last job because i just genuinely could not handle being out of my safe space and now that im moved out and am away from my family i just feel like it's going to be even worse. i feel like im just going to be an even bigger shell of a person who won't be able to go 5 seconds without panicking or freaking out about something realistic because overthinking about literally everything is what got me to this point. about my mistakes and my past catching up to me and everything i shouldn't be focusing on.

i had to get this job. id be getting kicked out of where i ended up moving to if i didn't, and i was supposed to feel better about finally having a job but i don't feel better. i feel just as scared and hopeless and debilitated as i did the first time, maybe even worse. and the worst part was being asked "are you excited to start your new job?" like no why the absolute fuck would i be excited about doing something that requires leaving the only safe space ive found? where all im going to be doing is overthinking and panicking 24/7? im so scared i don't know if i can do this :(

my newest OC, thoughts/criticisms/praises?

Name:

Emi Waraumetsu

Hero/Villain Affiliation:

UA High School Hero Course Class 1A

Quirk Description & Limitations:

Emi's Quirk, "Fangirl," allows her to become faster and stronger the more excited she becomes. When she is at full excitement, she is capable of running at speeds up to 200mph, and can break down an average-sized building with just a couple of punches. If she becomes too excited, however, she will go unconscious due to her unnatural heart rate as a result of the excitement. This isn't ideal, considering Emi was born with heart problems and is prone to such events even when she's not using her Quirk. Because of this, she is always wearing a heart monitor that alerts her if her heart beat goes above 100bpm and takes heart medication every night.

Costume/Support Gear:

Emi's interest in the American "scene" culture and her interest in style is the reason for her hero costume being bright, colorful, and outside of the norm. She wears a pair of white combat boots with black-white striped knee-high socks, white ripped shorts, a pink-checkered flannel with a Japanese band shirt underneath, and black fingerless gloves.

Personality:

Her excitement isn't just a result of her Quirk - Emi is a naturally bubbly, energetic, fun, and outgoing young woman who cares deeply for her friends and family. She can be seen as a bit of an airhead, judging by how she often struggles with simple tasks and is very clumsy. Despite herself, Emi does have an emotional side that she shows when it comes to the people she loves, and has moments of emotional intelligence and deep maturity.

Aspirations:

Emi aspires for happiness for all, and wants to put a smile on people's faces.

Origin Backstory:

Emi is 18 years old, the oldest student in Class 1A. She was born in Saitama Prefecture on 02/24, the same prefecture as her classmate, Denki Kaminari. She was raised in a household that was very restrictive and lacking freedom, meaning that Emi was never allowed to have friends, go out, or express herself. This is the reason why she is so outgoing, expressive, and colorful now - to make up for the childhood she lacked.

Appearance:

Emi has natural indigo hair and eyes, her hairstyle being rather choppy and layered as a result of her interest in scene culture. She has pale skin, a slender and curvy figure, and is 5'6" in height - making her one of the taller 1A students.

as bad as Scream 7 is...

Anna Camp is so fucking awesome in the third act. she gives one of the best killer performances honestly, even if she doesn't stick around long. she's a perfect mix between traumatized and absolutely fucking crazy lol I love her. as bad as the other killers were, Jessica was great!

I've (23) been having fantasies about my roommate's (25m) fiancée (24f) and I feel disgusting

I just want to preface this by saying that I would never, ever, *ever* betray my roommate in any way, and I know his girl wouldn't either. he's literally like a brother to me, someone who has helped me through the absolute worst times of my life. especially since he has already experienced betrayal in this context before, I would never want to put him through that again.

but I genuinely can't help the fantasies. his fiancée is so fucking hot, and I know there's nothing wrong with at the very least finding her attractive, as long as I don't act on these impulses, but I still feel like I'm a horrible friend and person for finding her attractive especially since I'd never actually tell him that. her and I are also pretty close friends (he knows, especially since I've known her longer than he has) though of course out of respect for my roommate, I usually keep our interactions strictly in person when he's around and nothing over private messaging unless I'm asking her about something important.

but damn, I went to his room the other night to play a game with him, and his fiancée was wearing this super tight tank top and short shorts that I only saw from the corner of my eye, and it took everything not to look fully. I'm pretty sure I was hard the entire night after I went back to my room and it was genuinely so uncomfortable and embarrassing even tho I was alone lol.

in your opinion, which character has the best design?

for me it's def Shiozaki and there's no debate. underbaked character sure but she's beautiful and i love the Medusa-like design with a Jesus-esque flair to it. bonus points because of how fucking awesome and badass she was in the Sports Festival arc

u/PaleGh0stface666 — 23 days ago

i've literally been a background character this entire vacation.

what could have possibly made me think that going on a vacation with my two best friends who have known each other far longer than they've known me was a good idea? i was literally the background character from the first fucking day it started. a majority of it has been them having fun, laughing together, joking around together, playing games together, etc. while i rot in the living room because that same playful and fun energy is barely there when i'm included and i usually just get ignored or talked over.

ever since this vacation started, my best friend has been so much different with me. he barely jokes around with me or initiates any of the playful banter we usually have all the time, as it's literally one of the main foundations of our friendship, and most of what he has been saying to me is just really short and uninterested and default. hell i can't even get him off his phone to answer at least one thing i say half the time during the moments it's just him and i. but when our other best friend is in the room? suddenly all he does is talk and laugh and joke around with him and seemingly has far more fun than he's ever had with me. and on top of that, they've literally been drinking all of the orange juice owned by the lady we're housesitting for, and he just goes "it's alright, we'll blame OP! just to fuck them over!" which like i get he was probably joking but after how shunned and outcasted and ignored ive felt this entire week that really pissed me off

on top of that whenever the three of us play games together it's usually them just secretly teaming on me and sucking each other's balls and then wondering why i don't want to play anymore. as a matter of fact i'm currently sitting in the living room trying not to cry while they sit in the bedroom and have the time of their lives without me

at least a handsome kitty is here to keep me company :)

starving, depressed, agoraphobic, unemployed. i'm glad i moved out but i didn't realize how much i'd be struggling.

i've barely eaten at all this past week and i can't even leave the house without having an anxiety or panic attack, but at least i can savor every single beautiful drop of this cherry limeade-flavored caffeine. cheers 🥂

maybe i just like emo chicks but i always thought Reiko was super damn cool and deserved way more screentime than what she was given aside from the training arc in season 5. her Quirk is pretty standard telekinesis, but she used it pretty ruthlessly, like when she absolutely *swarmed* Ashido with attacks during their fight. her character design is also really beautiful and unique for someone who's supposed to be just your average edgelord character.

really wish we got more of her! she had potential to be a really interesting and badass addition!

u/PaleGh0stface666 — 1 month ago

idk how y'all chose only 5 so easily this shit was hard as fuck😭😭 but some honorable mentions are definitely Mina, Mt. Lady, Burnin', Bakugo, and Kaminari

u/PaleGh0stface666 — 1 month ago

for me it's gotta be Kirishima and there's no contest. dude has been through so much self-doubt and insecurity, and yet, he doesn't let it get him down. he still manages to be one of the strongest and most courageous heroes in the class, despite his disdain towards his Quirk, and takes any chance he can to go out completely out of his way to save his friends and others. he never gives up on anyone, and genuinely just has a heart of gold. plus, both moments he risked his life for Ashido are two of my favorite moments in the franchise and i fuckin' FANGIRLED.

you could definitely say all of this for Deku, but for me, Kirishima edges him out. such a badass, brave, and strong guy who is totally MANLY! but who's your goat and why?

▲ 22 r/GenV

Gen V is by far the biggest instance of me falling in love with something just for it to break my heart. to know that this show had such a promising and exciting future just for it to fall apart just as quickly as it started absolutely sucks.

i feel like Chance Perdomo's death is the biggest ringleader in all of it. rest in peace to that absolute legend, seriously, but i feel like this show would have continued on it's strong path if he hadn't passed. between all of the rewrites and rushed creative decisions that made the show completely fall in quality and feel like an entirely different show from the first season, along with it leaning way too heavily into being a spinoff of The Boys when one of the reasons the first season was so great was because it felt like it's own thing, it just sucks that this show ended on the anticlimactic and disappointing note that it did. season two was clearly rushed and forced just to get it out on time and it shows with subsequent rewatches, and now that it's the final season of the show, it just feels even more disappointing.

im so fucking sad man. i fucking loved this show and wanted to see it grow so badly, but nope. this is what we were left with.
