Every little thing feels like running a marathon at this point in the month. Every task is a battle against the crushing fatigue and the all-consuming sadness that sits in my chest. And I know that in a few days, I will be ok again. But the wait for that relief is hell. #PMDD

When will I learn that the pit is not a good place for a 5'4 girly with bad knees? I am still ridiculously sore from being flattened in the VoV wall of death on Friday night.

How am I 36 years old and still have no idea what I want to do with my life? Feels like I am wasting my life away at my boring ass desk job. 😮💨

Apparently you only have to present with 5 of the symptoms, I've managed to tick off all of them this week.
For those wondering about the difference between PMS and PMDD. A brief thing. Basically you take the usual PMS symptoms and dial them up to 5 so they interfere with life, and then you make them last 1-3 weeks and add extra fun.

Does it really make our country a better place to imprison a whistleblower whose actions led to public interest reporting on war crimes in Afghanistan?
What does it say about our democracy that the first person imprisoned in relation to war crimes committed by Australian forces in Afghanistan is not a war criminal, but a whistleblower?
What message does it send to prospective whistleblowers, people who might speak up because they see wrongdoing and corruption, when the source for vital public interest reporting by our national broadcaster, the ABC’s Afghan Files, is sent to jail for almost six years?

The PMDD gremlin in my brain has full control today and refuses to let me do anything even remotely productive. I guess we will just sit here and wallow in self-inflicted shame instead. Fun times.

Me, working in corporate finance. Not exactly a career choice that attracts a lot of alt people. I uploaded a video into our team chat after my last mid-week gig and they have not looked at me the same since. 😂

If child abuse and neglect did not exist, almost a quarter of the more than 1.8m cases of depression, anxiety and substance use disorders in Australia could be prevented.
The finding comes from the first Australian study to estimate the proportion of mental health conditions which are directly caused by childhood maltreatment and independent from other influences such as genetics and social environments.

It's a start, but this would only really cover a bond / 2 weeks in advance payment. And that's if they can even find a place to rent.

I feel that affordable housing policies are needed as part of DV prevention as well. When my husband was in the grips of alcoholism 2 years ago, I could not afford to leave him despite me working FT. I wonder how many women are stuck living with violent men simply because they can't afford to leave.

Sometimes, I have health anxiety and I'm terrified that I'm dying. Other times, I have depression and I have no will to continue living. Anyway, it's a fucking weird space to exist in.
