Trans Icon Rachel, Feministeveryone's like "you can reach out to friends when you really need support" but I'm still stuck on the part where I have literally zero idea how to pop into someone's DMs with "my brain is being mean to me right now, can you give me just a bit of reassurance that you're not mad at me/hate my guts/talking shit about me behind my back?" without sounding like a needy manipulative bitch
Avery (She/Her)@YKantRachelRead i think you're really great <3

HeralayanSalty@HeralayanSalty @vantiss @shitpostalotl thank you all ♥️ I feel obligated to say that this was a request for advice rather than support - and also I appreciate your saying so a lot 
@YKantRachelRead @HeralayanSalty @shitpostalotl
my advice is, so long as it's not like..a constant thing you do all the time, occasionally asking a friend "hey I'm having a pretty rough brain day, are you willing to [tell me some things you like about me / offer me a bit of reassurance]?" is totally okay
