Saturday March 1, 2025 | Journal prompt | About Me

-
Journal prompts to get to know yourself include reflecting on your experiences, emotions, and values. 
Reflect on your experiences 
  • How has a recent accomplishment made you feel more self-worth?    I haven't had many accomplishments but I had some.  

  • What have you learned from a challenging situation?   Well the time I was in my own apartment and I got kicked out by my mother because well Jason tells me one thing and no one person doesn't tell me anything.  So I don't know what happened. Jason tells me that I ran down the hall screaming and one time he thought he saw me going out into the hallway with my shirt off.  I can swear to you that I didn't take off my shirt!  

  • What was I like when I was younger?   I was quiet, shy and tried to keep to myself.  When I started preschool, I was pretty quiet and shy.  Then I started kindergarten.  I saw this little red headed kid named Paul Beaumont.  

  • What do I want to improve about myself?   I would like to find other individuals like me to hang out with.  More like this. I would like to hang out with neurodiverent people rather than neurotypical people.  Neurodiverent are people who have selective mutism, ADHD, autism, APD.  I have APD and SM.  Not all people with ADHD are like Jason.  Jason is just an idiot and lazy ass son-of-a-bitches.  He is also has too much anxiety and depression!  

Reflect on your emotions 
  • What are my most common emotions?  anger and anxiety?  Is that right?

  • Which emotions do I tend to ignore?  I most commonly ignore anxiety and anger because it's the only two psychological emotions.  Well anger is not but anxiety is a psychological condition.  

  • How do I process my feelings?  I don't know, I tend to ignore my feelings as they do not matter. Everyone else ignores my feelings.  
Reflect on your values 
  • What are my core values?   My core values are there is a scary world out there.  I am a burden.  

  • What are my deeply-held beliefs?  That all people with ADHD are assholes. But then again, I might have ADHD too.  So I could very well be an asshole also.


  • How do my goals match up with my values?  Well.......I don't know.

Reflect on your life 
  • How is my life different than how I thought it would be?  I developed selective mutism at age 4.  


  • What worries me the most right now?  I know that no one will believe this but I think about my future all the time and think about my past.  I think how might my life be different if I hadn't developed selective mutism. Then I think about the future.  Where will I be in 5 years? 10 years?  I will never get an apartment ever again.  My mom just wanted me to experience it just this one time.  

  • What keeps me awake at night?  My anxious thoughts keep me up at night.  Like what I had on Thursday Feb 27 night into Friday morning Feb 28.  There is a blog about it yesterday on Feb 28.  

  • What do I like most about myself?   Well............I don't know. 

  • What are my strengths and weaknesses?   Well.........I don't know.

Other journaling prompts 
  • What do I want to work toward?   I can't do that until I get rid of Jason.  

  • What's something new I want to try?  I would like to meet neurodivergent friends but my mom think they will be like Jason-----assholes who have no empath and are lazy and have anxiety and depression.  


  • What was a time I overcame a challenge?   I can't remember a time where I overcame a challenge.  

  • Who or what events have helped determine who I am today?   Well, this my damn fault that I developed selective mutism.  

Journaling can help you process your thoughts and emotions in a healthy way.

Sunday August 25, 2024 | My dream on Saturday night August 24 | Hypnosis for selective mutism

-
I had a dream that I was in the hospital in Galveston Texas like the one I was in when I was 10 years old.  Working on getting rid of SM through hypnosis.  Is there a good hynosis therapist in Beaumont Texas who specializes in selective mutism?   I am determined to overcome selective mutism now or at least most of the way.  Some idiot told me that I won't be able to overcome SM entirely.  Ugh!  Or will I be able to overcome SM entirely?

Wednesday August 28, 2024 | Do parent's say this to their kids who have a disability? (the highlighted words in this blog)

-
Got this from copilot from the question I asked, " would people pleasing be an example of "you don't want to disappoint mom do you"? "   Is this true?   Sorry I had a flash back of my dad saying that question phrase that is highlighted in yellow.    (A phrase that my dad said to me when I was 3 and 4 years.)  Ah, the delicate dance between parental expectations and a child’s desire to please! 🕺🌼 Let’s waltz through this topic, shall we? “You don’t want to disappoint mom, do you?” —a phrase that can carry both love and a subtle weight. It’s like a mini emotional tug-of-war, with the child caught in the middle, clutching their teddy bear and pondering life’s mysteries.   Here’s the scoop: The Mom Guilt Tango : Parents often mean well when they say this. They want their child to succeed, be kind, and make them proud. It’s like they’re handing the child a bouquet of expectations, hoping they’ll bloom into the perfect little sunflower....

Friday February 7, 2025 | Anxiety Disorders and Diabetes

I knew this when I was 5 and no one had to tell me this. So is this really true? But because I have selective mutism, my learning challenging and people think that I am stupid. It is that communication thing that people think that I'm stupid. I know the highlighted and BIG LETTERS SOUNDS unreasonable, I just want to get across to people that I am anxious all the time! Do I have to start cursing for you people to hear me? I will. I know that BIG MOTHER OF ALL CURSE WORDS. I bet no one knew that did they? Actually, I got it from those kids at the hospital in Galveston when I was in the hospital back in 1984. So I knew about that word when I was about 9 or 10 years old. Actually when I was 4 years old I felt like I didn't belong because I was trying to tell myself how or where I got my selective mutism and I felt that way for a long time. Maybe my dad has ADHD? Perhaps my parents have ADHD and it somehow turns into autism in children? High-functioning Autism. I th...
