I can’t control my own mood so why not panic over the amount of sugar in my dinner

I feel bad about lying to my mum about my cuts but then I remember how she reacted when she found out and I don’t want that to happen again

I hate people. People suck. Bees are much better. And penguins. Penguins are way better than people. It’s like biologically impossible for them to be homophobic.

‘Don’t call me that’
‘But it’s your name’ -
Why is it that when people want to change their names that their parents gave to them without their permission everyone gets mad
If you don’t like your name and you can’t change it you’re going to resent it more and more and you’ll have to live with it for the rest of your life. It’s their name, they should be able to change it. They won’t “grow into it” -
None of my friends have had trouble using my pronouns and name. My dad and sister haven’t. My English teacher haven’t. Even the person who talked s--- about me who I thought was my friend uses my pronouns. My mum isn’t “old and tired”. She refuses to accept me, despite her saying she’s not homophobic.

That's super frustrating.
I hate how people say you'll 'grow into' your name. It's not a sweater. It's a part of your identity, an important part. Your name follows you everywhere. It's a part of you. If you don't like it, then why would you keep it?
Have you called her out for this? Not in a "Hey, screw you, that's not my name" way, but you could just do it in an objective "Hey, you called me my deadname. That hurt my feelings. Please stop, and I'll be less angry with you" way. It's pretty hard to get mad and defensive over an objective fact. -
Exactly! It’s not that hard to accept that. And like it’s always been bizarre to me that the kid doesn’t get to choose their name when they’re old enough, they just have to live with the name their parent gave them
I have. Like every time she calls me my big bad name I’ve said ‘please don’t call me that, I don’t like it’ and every time she’s been like ‘bUt iTs YoUr NaMe’ -
Yeah it's just a stupid thing to get upset over. Is it like, a family name? Does it have sentimental meaning to her? Obviously her not calling you by the CORRECT NAME is stupid, but there might be a reason for it...
I hate that I hate that I hate that ughhhhh. Have you told your dad that it frustrates you? Because maybe if he brings it up, she'd be more like "huh, clearly this is a problem, go figure" -
It probably has sentimental value for some stupid reason, but it’s definitely not a family name lol. (They named me after a city they’ve never been to that had a massive library that burned down so fun ig?)
He always takes my mum’s side in these things. Like it doesn’t matter what it is, he’ll just stay out of it or be on her side -
Ok cool (dude what- better than a family name tho lmao)
Huh, ok. That sucks. Any family members/family friends you could talk to about it maybe? -
(Fair enough lmao)
Yeah. Not really, lol, I’m not close with my extended family/family friends like that, and I’m not out to any of them anyway
