a reminder of how executive dysfunction can also look like . You are NOT lazy

brain : Hey the new season of my favorite show is out!!! I've been waiting for so long I'm excited to see it!!

Executive dysfunction : no. impossible. no fucking way. too difficult. unattainable. blocked.

brain : but I want to see it, I want to do it .. badly :(

Executive dysfunction : fuck no. you will be experiencing new emotions, meaning that it will have to be processed. that's too difficult and very exhausting

brain : alright lets watch old shows then

Executive dysfunction : that will be a waste of time, you could've just watch new things you stupid fuck.

brain : ..u right .. but what else can I do?

Executive dysfunction : i have preaperd for you exactly two options. You can either wait for no reason orrr, rot in bed and doom scroll for hours while you feel absolutely shit with yourself from wasting all this precious time.. ill let you chill in distress, mkay? :3 btw have you noticed the feeling, that looming fear and utter discomfort that has been gnawing at your insides like youre being chased by something? Correct, there's nothing you can do about it.

brain : so you're just gonna let me get stuck?

Executive dysfunction : absolutely! :)

brain : Is there really nothing i do something about it?

Executive dysfunction : well.. You can always try.. I'll just never gonna let you do anything else you want or need :)

brain : ... but that wont do.. how abou-

Executive dysfunction : bitch no. you cant

Ways I develop character relationships in my writing

This is just a small list of things I do to add a little bit of coziness into my writing through my characters! Relationships (both platonic and romantic) are notoriously hard to write, so here are some of my tips!

Characters picking up on each other’s mannerisms

Characters finishing each other’s sentences

When one character trips/falls/slips and their friend(s) make fun of them before helping them up

Inside jokes

When a group is laughing together, characters who immediately look at each other to see if they found it funny also

Friends who can’t keep it together in serious situations when they’re together

Platonic touching (hugging, hand holding, high fives, etc.)

Characters discussing future plans

Intentionally making fun of each other in front of their crush/partner

I've been thinking a lot about Deen and my heart ache .. He died by an accident from the hands of the person that once was his ally. His sister might marry and fall in love to the same man that killed him. He never tasted magic.. didn't get to see the rise of Arawiya.. or travel the world, he could never have more, he did everything yet what did he get?

Death. Eaten by Sharr, no grave, no burial.

And even after his death life still made a mockery out of him.

Zafira married the very person Deen swears to protect her from the very start of their journey, when DEEN'S proposal was rejected because she never loved him like he does for her and he knew. Yet he kept that love and loved the love itself instead of pushing it away. He yearned for her that much. He loved her. Cared for her until his very last breath. He gave her his heart even when he knew her heart will never be his. He will never get to be loved the way he wished to be loved, the way Zafira loves Nasir.

LIKE WHATS MORE PAINFUL BUT TO SEE THAT THE ' LIFE ' OF THE VERY PERSON WHO TRIES EVERYTHING, GAVE EVERYTHING AND DID EVERYTHING WITH THEIR VERY HEART AND SOUL TO RECIEVE NOTHING EVEN IF HE WASN'T TRYING TO GET ANYTHING BACK.

ITS JUST-

AGH

Yaa Dean, you are not real. But you have our hearts, and many are willing to give it even if you ask it for a thousand and one time

executive dysfunction sounds like a fucking lie, even the ones who suffers from it think it's just some stupid excuses they make for not putting enough efforts, and the whole thing doesn't make any sense either!

" I can't do thing because brain stops me from doing it "

LIKE WHAT. WHO WOULD BELIVE THAT

because i love y’all, i’m sharing my family’s recipe for apple tea (traditional fall/winter drink in west asia, turkey, and many areas of the balkans)

it’s like a more delicate version of apple cider and i basically live off of this stuff when the weather starts to cool!

Apple Tea (for two)

1 large apple or 2 small, shredded (you can use a cheese grater)

3 cups water

1-2 cinnamon sticks

2-3 pc clove (optional)

honey to taste

1 tsp of lemon juice (add at end)

green tea (optional! some versions call for green tea but i actually prefer it without. up to you!)

throw it all in a pot and let it simmer on a low temperature for an hour or so. while it’s simmering, it will also make your home smell delicious! (if you make it with green tea, add the tea at the end, about five minutes before taking it off the heat so the flavor doesn’t become bitter from oversteeping). strain into your cups and enjoy hot.
