huggerofcats (started using recently). I've also been using Instagram (@huggerofcats), occasionally Pinterest (username also huggerofcats), and a few other sites on and off. I think I'm fine with listing these accounts here, but I'd prefer that my Dreamwidth account is kept more private. Basically, I won't talk about this account on most other sites and would like others to do the same.
Describe yourself in five sentences or less:
Ummm.... I'm an INTP who doesn't always fit the stereotype, and in other personality-typing systems, I'm an RLUEI in the Global 5 system (meaning my dominant traits are reserved, limbic, unstructured, egocentric, and inquisitive) a 4w5 in the Enneagram system. I also have multiple health conditions that are a huge part of my life right now (not in a good way), so I think those are worth mentioning when it comes to who I am right now. I am disabled and currently live with my parents and three cats, and I probably won't be looking forward to moving out until we get a decent treatment plan figured out. My cats--and all other cats I've met to some degree--are really important to me, I love spending time around animals in general, and I've always had a thing for shocking concepts in art (especially music) and science. I also spend a lot of time playing games and have no clue what I'm going to do with my life--or tomorrow for that matter.
Top 5 Fandoms:
I'm not sure if any of these count as fandoms, but I'll list five things I've been into lately: MBTI/personality typing (if that's not obvious), music that's constantly changing (though I currently really like Joywave), dark art, psych/neurology stuff (especially "abnormal psych" if that's what it's called), traveling, etc. I don't think I've been too involved in Fandoms for most of my life. I'll get really into something (maybe a show or very specific artist) every now and then, but I usually analyze it on my own. Plus that kind of thing can be bad for my mental health for some odd reason.
I mostly post about:
Most (if not all) of my posts are about my life, and if I stick around on this site, they'll probably change a lot as my life changes. I made this journal primarily as a way to fight dissociation/memory loss; I do a lot of things I think I'd remember and don't remember them. So this is meant to be a log of what's going on in my life. Lately, it's been pretty centered on getting treatment for my health conditions--and my health in general--so that's something to expect. Because I'm trying to feel less zoned out and more involved in my brain and the world, I might try to write down thoughts about various things... most likely things that are related to my interests. Some entries might include some triggering subjects, but I try to put a warning on them (along with a reason or reasons for the warning).
Posting and commenting:
How often I post will probably remain pretty inconsistant. To me honest, I haven't posted in a while, but I've been trying to keep up with others' entries. Commenting is also a problem for me: For no obvious reason, it can send me into or close to panic... or it can make me zone out even more--something that isn't helpful at all. Basically, I may not comment or respond to comments much, but it has nothing to do with you!!!
My last three posts were about:
I'll just list the last three titles.
Struggles with Human Interaction (locked, NSFW), Old Memories and New Changes, Feeling Emotions and Actually in Sync with Them for Once (for better or worse) (also locked, NSFW).
A GIF to describe how your day has been so far:
I sadly don't save many gifs, but the ones posted on other group members' entries are pretty relatable.
Hopefully this makes sense and isn't too confusing! I've been having a lot of brain fog today, and reading what I've written isn't easy.

No voyeurism meant, I think it's just the most honest way to put it...
