This used to be funny a long time ago, but…now it just makes me really dysphoric. I need to get some sleep…

    Thanks darling. Just remember that motherhood isn’t out of reach for you either. The important part is the 18 years after childbirth. There are plenty of children who don’t have parents who would be greatful to be raised in a loving family.

      Thanks that’s really nice of you.

      I know that…but still, I’m a really selfish person. Adoption is (in my mind) amazing, a good deed. But…I can barely take care of myself, I don’t think I’m ready to take care of another human being.

      For some reason, I keep thinking that if it was a child I carried for 9 months, things would be different. I’d do everything to take care of that kid, no matter what it would cost me. It’s selfish and it doesn’t make sense, don’t worry about it. Sorry

      Thanks 🩷
