It makes me feel like I'm suffocating in work 

therapy, yo

It's funny because I only wear a mask during my mental care contact meetings (I don't go outside any more) so it's kinda like therapy is making me feel like I'm suffocating: P

Well not suffocating suffocating but you know the the "something is blocking your breath you have to take really deep breaths" mode you go into.

[Caz]

can you try a different mask? i had a mask that kinda stopped my breathing by sticking to my face, but the usual blue medical masks don't do such. it might feel like it, tho. but folk do 10hr shifts in them, it isn't actually restricting your breathing

[scriver]

Nah it's not too bad. It's just a little weird talking when it makes it sound like you're out of breath.

[Caz]

it makes you sound that way? or you actually feel outta breath? >_>

[scriver]

I mean it makes me sound that way because I start taking deep breaths because my body feels wants me to. But I don't get like, panicky level breathing or hyperventilating. It's not something I can't put up with for an hour.

I feel scammed.

I bought a nice large red jalapeņo pepper to use in a spinach curry.
I carefully tested a small piece raw, like I always do to sample it's spiciness.... Nothing.  Like, literally nothing. Just tasted like a sweet candy bell pepper with zero spiciness.
I ended up eating the whole thing raw in frustration.

Ah well, I still have a pot of sambal, so I can still make a somewhat spicy curry.

haha, sometimes this happens with peppers. they make good trick peppers to eat and scare people with your spicy prowess. they sell peppers here for frying that are supposed to be "1 in 10" spicy, but i never found a spicy one among them. smt about the heat stress makes them spicy, and they just grow em in greenhouse conditions all the time.

My friends are getting into relationships. This is great, yes. I am delighted for them.

But it makes me feel like the world is changing and rushing along very fast and going to shift

and this makes me very uncomfortable

Was thinking of moving out with my sister, end of last year. Ended up falling through because she wanted to get a place faster and it was easier, which is fair enough. Was planning to move out with my brother end of this year, but now he's wanting to look at renting in an area I don't really want to move to and thinking about skipping whole "together" part. Starting to feel like people just want me to come with to pay half the rent, not really interested in what I want.

I guess eventually I'll just move out alone, which is stupidly uneconomical but I'd rather die than live with a stranger.

Welp I guess I arrived to late to the doctors and my appointment got skipped, so no I have to choose between the social awkwardness of rebooking a new appointment or the awkwardness of checking what's up. Terrible.

When you're buying jalaenos in particular (although I think it works for all spicy peppers), I've always heard the ones with the little brown cracks are the spicier ones.

therapy, yo

I don't follow? I should get therapy so I don't feel suffocated?

If so, meh. I work nine hours doing physical work with a mask on. It's not all about my frame of mind, hah.

Definitely support the wearing of masks. I'll also be among the first to stop wearing them when the situation makes it permissible.

I don't catch your meaning.
