Yesterday, I found out that my therapist is an ENFP. Exciting!
I’m an INTP, which means that we have Extroverted iNtuition (Ne) in common. That must be why we get on so well—we spend much of each session meta-analyzing people, behaviors, and the world.
Also, she has Te (extroverted thinking) while I have Ti (introverted thinking), which I think explains why:
She does most of the...

The phrasing, though.
An NPR story about transgender kids: Jonah lives on the west coast with his parents; and his father, Joel, remembers noticing that even at the age of two, his son didn't seem to be interested in traditional "boy toys."
Me: *raises eyebrow*

I just had a dream. Everything was beautiful; nothing hurt.
And then I awoke.

You know what's depressing?
Being depressed without having a reason to be depressed. You can’t even explain it to people. There’s just nothing. Nothing there. Nothing wrong. Nothing right. Just nothing.

I can’t write an essay with an outline. I just write the whole thing and edit it to perfection. Especially if its an argumentative essay, I love writing those. I wonder if that’s a bad thing.

Drugs I do not like: Zoloft.
I have decided to start a new series on all the sorts of drugs I have been prescribed and my experiences with them.
In case you were not aware, I am depressed; and none of the drugs on which I have been have done much of anything to help. I believe that drugs rarely do a lot of good for psychological conditions and are massively overprescribed. While some of them—for some people—do...

FFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
I need to give a presentation tonight. I have all afternoon to work on it.
I cannot.
I have completely lost interest in it. I’m just sitting here, staring at my slides and outline, blank-minded. I don’t know what to do to it. I don’t even want to look at it. I just want to sleep; to read; to eat; to do anything else at all.

Yesterday, for the first time, I experienced exploding head syndrome.
It occurred twice as I was falling asleep: a short, sharp jolt which sounded like electricity arcing. There was no associated sleep paralysis, though.

I’ve realized I make awfully a lot of people cry by being nice to them. Which I find completely insane for some reason. Like for example today. I knew this girl in my class hadn’t been feeling good for quite some time. I don’t know what it was about I just know it’s been obvious she hasn’t been feeling good. Today she wasn’t wearing any make up, whatsoever and I thought she looked...
