"this word means this!" is not a description of your experiences, it's an assertion. if other people have seen it used a different way, that's not denying your lived experience, that's sharing their own as a counterexample.

for fuck's sake y'all, your experiences are not universal, and other people having different experiences does not invalidate yours.

advice/personal experiences with feeling drained 

@Lioness i don't know if there's a way to increase your recharge rate for the type of work that you are doing / energy which has been lost

but what i AM able to do (to stave off the depression, which will otherwise slow everything down) is engage myself in other activities (maybe after a day of rest) which use different kinds of energy (not the emotional kind which is drained)

this might be playing games or watching anime, it might be listening to light music, it might be going someplace (which if you have the ability to just like, go to a coffeeshop and chill, i recommend it), it probably involves a lot of sitting and staring off into space with a coffee or tea

the idea is just to stay vertical so that your mind+body doesn't completely shut down while waiting for the parts of you that are drained to recover

then when they DO come back you can jump right back into what you were doing instead of having to build up stamina all over again

shoutout to the folks with more than one set of pronouns, with identities that don’t fit into a single phrase, who don’t have words to describe their experience. y’all are an essential and inseparable part of the gender diverse community and i love you.

good: using y'all to refer to a group of people

better: using y'all to refer to a plural system

best: using all y'all to refer to several plural aystems
