I had a better day today :) I woke up crazy anxious, like breathing techniques required anxious, but it got better and better. Ate every meal, did some chores, didn't do anything stupid. Played some Minish Cap for a bit, cutest game ever made, absolutely must play for the wholesome vibes. I'm about halfway through now. Wrote a bunch of a Legend POV that is almost unusable lol but it did help me get my thoughts in order. He's preparing for a ~social interaction~ that could be ~disastrous~ if he fucks up so he's overthinking like crazy.
I have a million comments I'm excited to respond properly to, but I need to be on laptop to do them justice so I'll wait till tomorrow. I've read them, though. People are so warm and good. I don't know how to properly express my gratitude for the comments. People put in all this work writing them chapter after chapter. And they connect with the story, they make these awesome predictions and some of them are so correct I want to scream and celebrate but it would spoil it!! So I have to be like HMM INTERESTING THEORY YOU HAVE THERE. And sometimes orchids happen :)
Thank you again to everyone who got in touch yesterday, to anon, to those who messaged and commented. I'm still a little shocked. And feeling like a huge hypocrite. I write all the 'take care of yourself, call helplines' etc shit in the a/ns when things get real in the fic and then I go and get to the point where I'm vagueposting in an irl crisis?? Cognitive dissonance. But thank you. The messages and comments kind of woke me up. So I'm awake now and paying attention and doing my best! 💪
