Voraciously reading gURL.com. Got me into zine and riot grrl culture, and helped me actually learn about my body and sex in a positive way despite growing up in a conservative home.

But you can’t do all that with cash 😔 otherwise that would def be mine too

I think I’d go paleolithic. Pre-agricultural, on the move finding food, being in nature. It’d be dicey obviously but like whatever, if you die you die. I feel like the physical activity, adrenaline, living in community, being in nature… Would just be nice. I feel like I probably wouldn’t be depressed anymore eventually. Like who would have the time?

Also damn can you imagine seeing like 4000 lb armadillos and shit? Living among a bunch of now-extinct megafauna seems like it would be both thrilling and terrifying. Honestly I’d probably die by trying to Disney princess with a twelve foot tall deer or some shit.

I started meds after I had COVID and was already experiencing long term symptoms (brain fog but also fatigue). So I do feel less foggy after starting meds but I also still have more memory problems than I used to pre-COVID. I also have had increased brain fog lately because I’m tapering off a different need and have had brutal withdrawal from it. I just don’t think I can tease apart what’s coming from where.

Both, though in some ways my fog has gotten worse and I believe this is from long covid and changing other medications. So it’s hard for me to really judge that for now.

I got diagnosed in my mid-thirties and finally getting on medication for it literally made me cry because of how normal I felt.
