      The crushing weight of knowing there is a crushing weight waiting but not being weighed down by it at the moment, but knowing that the crushing will resume at some undetermined point in the future.

        The crushing weight of a hydraulic press. Sorry, what were we talking about?

          You’re a sentient doll.

          You get bought

          The buyer is a youtuber

          he got a hydraulic press.

          you discover that the crushing weight isn’t just a mental thing

          you wake up, it was just a dream.

          You’re a sentient doll waiting to be bought.

            The hydraulic press isn’t real. The hydraulic press isn’t real. The hydraulic press isn’t real.

            But how do I know these words?

              These words you utter invoke a painful sensation that move from the top of your head down to the tip of your toeless foot. A huge feeling of despair got hold of you. You just know you are paying for past sins commited. sins so grave that you’ve been doomed to be crushed for eternity and beyond. The sin of Putting pineapple on pizza.

        Ah, yes. The perpetual struggle of life.

        Edit : that does sound a lot like living in an abusive household…

    I wonder how many people get diagnosed with anxiety before anyone in their lives realize they have ADHD

    If I don’t know there’s a task, I try to remember, and when that fails, I rationalize it can’t be that important or I’d remember it.

    60% chance I feel the crushing weight anyway. 30% chance it was REALLY REALLY important, so I feel the crushing weight later as guilt. 10% chance I feel the weight anyway AND it was really important.

    Once though, once there wasn’t anything important and it worked. Great day, would have again. Fresh out of those unfortunately.

    I read tanks in the first two comments. Anyyyways, the crushing weight of not knowing if there is a task is so real.

    Anyways #2: Wtf is up with that capitalization?? It’s either none at all, fucking title case or “Feeling” case.
