I need to reorganize

OH and I realize also that Crowley has designed a search engine. Would any of you kindly tell me how the blazes to search for anything on here? Either my intuition is one of a kind or it's counter-intuitive. Because I can't figure out how to use the search function, it keeps telling me error things.
how do I search for multiple tags at once, like I want to find a journal entry which has tag x, y and z in their tag list?
HOW?
I realize that while I first thought it was a smart system to gather certain themes in "collection" entries, that makes it really hard for me to remember which pictures I've posted and not. And anyone looking for a certain theme can do that via tags searching instead, so I'll be shifting everything around to post pictures separately instead.
Please bear with me because that might take a while of gradually "re-posting" to rearrange. (I think I can set it to not notify you, but I may forget.)
Still listening to Lava Reef Zone. Beautiful.

(I just learned to never write my replies directly into the email app. It crashed and erased half a page of text. Fuck, that made me tired enough to start crying.)
...yeah, I struggle with my anxiety and depression, with just doing everyday things, and it doesn't always feel like it's getting much easier, but I get more results? Pretty much. I think I'm learning to dwell less on things. It makes a world of difference that I have an understanding doctor so I can stay on sick leave. If I had to be out on the "job market" I wouldn't have the strength left to deal with this, and I'd crash again, sooner or later. I've got a good psychologist now, too, replacing a not so good therapist. I finally feel I've got a chance to patch myself up and that a few years from now I might actually support myself again.
Made some progress with my fic ideas, which is how I make myself feel better. :) I've turned it into my therapy tool. mostly busy with one based on the sonic games, dunno if you remember I've mentioned it... I figured out some world building /plot things just lately. I think I'm finally on to the bigger picture, including the core themes, that'll hold it together. (Just like the games, I build the central plot around the ancient echidnas, but I want a world and history context for that plot to reside in.) it's looking like I can actually combine most of the concepts I want. I'm still stumped for some things (like what exactly the Little Planet is and how it affects the big planet, if at all) but I sense I'll work it out if I keep going like this. (I've also had some new ideas about Emmy /Amy, I'd love to share of you're curious :) but I'd rather do that in a pm :p hard to keep track of what will be spoilers.)
What about you? Your depression giving you a hard time or did you beat it into submission? How do you like your apartment and new surroundings now?

glad to hear you have supportive medical professionals on your side; i so often hear of the opposite side of that story. I hope you're able to keep healing the way you need to!
hooray for fic progress, too! i'd love to hear about it if you ever feel like it.
it's been pretty rough for me lately, but i'm managing - new surroundings are definitely still a plus and are a lot more peaceful than what i was used to.

Also, don't worry if my responses get wordy and you don't feel like writing that much. I just kind of can't write shorter. :p
By the way, if you've got skype and are comfortable with me knowing yours, my username is GeckoVonP. (ATM it's not working for some reason, but I hope I can fix that with my next OS update. As in, when I have 11 hours of wifi access.)
I'm unsure where I should start for telling you fic stuff. The main plot is under construction. Bc of how I'm wired, I tend to start with details and work my way to the bigger picture, shedding the details that don't fit on the way. So when sharing ideas at this stage, I prefer to start in the one corner I'm currently occupied with and go from there.
I'm glad you're managing at the moment, and I hope it eases up soon. Good to hear your surroundings are helping, too. It can make such a difference.
(At this point I feel like I should find just any new place I can. At least it'd be new noises, and I'd remind myself I'm a mobile unit, you know? )
...I had a really good doctors appointment today; genetics lab. Mom has been convinced this one enzyme mutation I've got mattered, but after this talk, I feel I can safely let that go. And the geneticist thought my own suggestion to check my chromosomes and hormone balance was a very good idea. She promised that if I don't get any response from the gender identity institution soon, she'll write a request for the blood tests to check chromosomes.

the details have always been the fun part for me; i've always concentrated on the little things as well, at least at first. you mentioned Amy earlier, maybe you could start with her?
i hope you get your results soon!
