DD Ward ..."Sapphic Dr. DOOM"

I know what the majority of my friends and family will say. My bipolar and my low cycles aren't new.

They've seen this before. They've offered me their advice.

But one thing i've learned... you can't think yourself out of an emotion.

Did so much with the system.

Yes. It's technically FFVI.

This is how I played it.

Nintendo really did package one of the best super nintendo games with the super nintendo itself. Such a baller move.

Love is good. I agrew. Thank you.

I have a fairly coherent life philosophy. Stole it from a web friend. It's just hard to embody it in low times.

I need to talk this shit out. But I know demoralizing this is. And I Don't want to inflict it on my wife when she's going through so much. my roommate won't get it, bless her heart. She doesn't look at the world that way.

So where? Exhaust my close friends? My church going mom? My oblivious dad?

Thank you. 🩷

I'm an atheist. There is no cosmic reward I'm working towards. No divine punishment I'm fleeing. I have to make my own meaning. My own motivation.

But if life is a parade of ever harder days... what then?

Thank you 🩷

I didn't beat this when it first came out. I didn't beat it until I was in my twenties.

Oh. And I'm afraid to mention this to my psychiatrist. Because his go to response is more meds. And they finally lowered my meds, and I don't feel like a robot anymore.

I don't think my response is unusual given the curcumstances. But apparently emotion is the enemy.

River City Ransom. My brother and I beat this game together. We loved it.

I played the HELL out of Final Fantasy XII. I farmed rare drops and traded for rare items. I fought ootional bosses and super bosses. Yes, I beat Yiazmat. I got the Zodiac Spear ridiculously early. I did everything.
