It definitely told my therapist a lot when I said to her, "I can be honest with you because I don't need you to like me. I'm paying you for a service."

In a way, yes. I work in the cheese industry, and there's only a handful of manufacturers making things; a lot of times the only thing that differs is the packaging. Especially when it comes to something simple like shredded mozzarella cheese, the store brands are all the same product with different packaging.
I work (4x10 with 30 minute commute), go to the gym 3 days a week, cook healthy meals, maintain relationships with a handful of people, and get 6-7 hours of sleep.
I'm the oldest of three. I'm two years older than my sister, and three years older than my brother. We fought and argued a lot as kids, but we were always there for each other if someone outside of the family wanted to mess with one of us. As adults, we're really close. We get together every week for dinner, and have been playing Pathfinder weekly for nearly a decade now!
Yeah, my "gift" was undiagnosed ADHD which has made life absolutely miserable to navigate once I left the extremely structured environment of school.
Alas, I have the 'nothing at all gives me dopamine' ADHD. I thought it was just depression for years, but turns out it was ADHD. I struggle to see any benefits that come from my condition.
My sister sent me a video she took of her toddler son, he was banging his hands against the window they were looking out of while saying "Uncle! Uncle!" like he was trying to manifest his uncle visiting again. That kid never fails to make me smile.
Seeing this question asked is sort of sad. Did this become a less common experience? What killed it?
I'm in my thirties, and the closest thing I ever had to a party was when me and a bunch of the guys I worked with (total of like six people) would hang out together, drinking and playing Mario Kart
I struggled with depression a lot when I was growing up. And to deal with it, I ate my feelings, and gained a ton of weight. Even though I've lost most of the weight, (down from 350lbs to 200lbs) my body is never going to look good due to the stretch marks and loose skin.
Smoked paprika. It just adds so much depth to anything that I add it to! I'm also a big fan of cumin and turmeric.
18 or 20, depending on how I'm feeling that day.

No, the people around me are mostly racists, sexists, and bigots. If it wasn't for the internet, I wouldn't be able to find my people without moving far away.
