If My OC Were An Animal Shed Be A Dog. Specifically Shed Be A German Shepherd.

if my OC were an animal she’d be a dog. specifically she’d be a german shepherd.

a tiny, loyal, helpless kicked puppy with a floppy ear when she was little—and a scarred, aggressive, scary dog after the timeskip.

sometimes you just have to let yourself be a bit neurodivergent.

i hate going out, it gives me a lot of anxiety and sensory input that i dont like, and i am often forced to talk to people.

so i do this thing on more difficult days, or sometimes just for fun, where i "bring a fictional character with me". i walk and imagine Fictional Character walking next to me. they talk to me, reassure me, hype me up, whatever i need them to do.

today dean winchester came christmas shopping with me. he went over the list with me of stuff i needed to get, told me i was doing a good job every time i finished in a certain shop, reminded me to take a deep breath when i got a little overwhelmed.

and yea. its kinda silly. and i know its just me talking to myself in a different voice, but it Works! especially since all of my special interests/hyperfixations tend to be tv/movie related.

so do what you gotta do to Get Shit Done. stop holding yourself to neurotypical standards. if you need Fictional Character to tell you you're doing a good job, do it! if you need Favourite Singer to walk you to school, do it! yea it might feel silly but you're literally fighting against your own brain to get stuff done every single day. you can have a little self indulgent daydream, as a treat.

hello!! i just wanted to say that i have finished chapter 11!! :D

me with Little Nightmares 😭

it’s been two, almost three years, and my obsession is still going strong

must a piece of media be “good?” is it not enough to first encounter it aged thirteen and have your brain completely rewired forever?

thank you!!!

hello!! i just wanted to say that i have finished chapter 11!! :D

hi, i am autistic and little nightmares is my special interest.

i absolutely love that little nightmares content has found its way onto my dashboard recently.. however it’s kind of painful to look at it 😭

does anyone else have this, where you are so in love with your special interest that interacting with it is painful for some reason??
