aw cinnamon i'm sorry :c sending you lots of love <3
on hiatus <3
Thank you.
It is, of course, not just related to what you shared.
Besides external stressors (Mum, car repairs, friend refusing to apologize, interview anxiety), I think something I consumed is affecting how I feel...
I got a free "preworkout" drink. I have never had a preworkout drink before. Apparently, it had 260 mg caffeine in it, which I'm not used to. So, I might have had a caffeine high & then crash.
I'm not really sure because I'm not sure that I've ever had a caffeine crash before, but I feel pretty terrible. I am planning to take my nighttime meds and try to sleep it off.

Hey, sorry if this is unusually superficial. I swear I'm not trying to force a character here, I just think you guys might understand this better than other people I'd try to vent to, cause, y'know, bimbo site.
I feel kinda bad about myself right now??? Like, before the pandemic, I was working out a lot, I was buying pink things, I would paint my nails and I had blonde highlights and I wore makeup a lot, I'd look at outfit inspo online and I would spend hours on clothing websites adding stuff to my wishlists, I was trying to find ways to make money to buy the clothes I liked, and I was modeling for a local hair salon.
I think now I'm a lot more depressed, I've gained a lot of weight, it's hard to stick to a hygiene schedule and I spend a lot of the day lying around. I pretty much wear the same 4 outfits, some combination of jeans and a T-shirt. I feel like so many of my fashion/lifestyle goals have been postponed or I've lost interest in them entirely. I haven't worked out consistently in forever, maybe once every other month. I can't even remember the last time I washed my face with soap :(
Obviously, I have way bigger struggles than this with my depression, I just feel really bad because I used to be really pretty and I thought I was gonna be more pretty and I think when quarantine started I went into like-- a depression hibernation?-- and I feel like I've lost myself? I don't feel motivation to take care of myself, let alone doll myself up. I don't like what I see at all. I want the pandemic to end, but I also wish I could get a head start so I don't re-enter the world like... this. I don't feel confident with myself at all, but I don't have the motivation to commit to fashion anymore. Does anyone else struggle with this w/their depression?

Lei, I think a lot of us are struggling with some of these issues due to the pandemic and lockdown.
I know that lockdown looks different everywhere and that some places didn't get hit as hard.
Exercise: Where I live, the gyms closed down and the gym I belonged to never reopened, although others did. Even the hiking trails were closed with the rangers enforcing it. Parks & playgrounds that had fences were locked. If they didn't have fences, they were wrapped in construction tape to prevent people from using it. So, obviously, my exercise routine was interrupted. Not only could I not go to the gym, I couldn't take a hike or do pull-ups at the park. The last few months, though, I have been trying to get into a home workout routine.
Clothes: Again, with lockdown and nowhere to be, many of us probably don't dress like we used to. I definitely live in my jeans. But I do try to rotate which tops I wear.

i remember i brought it up in this thread before but i am going away to a residential treatment center for mental health (specifically anxiety/agoraphobia) so .. here’s hoping it goes well !! i’ll let you guys know how it went when i’m back in case that’s ever a potential option for any of you and you have questions !
on hiatus <3
Yes, please do tell us more when you can!
I have looked into residential many times before but Ive never been. Im guessing it will be a few months before we hear from you. I wish you the best in the meantime!
