Are you able to ask for help when you need it, or do you keep your struggles to yourself?

Allow me to tell you a real scenario from my life: I was getting a blood transfusion a couple of months ago. They had me all hooked up with an IV and everything was fine and dandy. About halfway through, I look down and see that my IV is leaking blood. The nurse was sitting nearby, but looked busy. Any normal person would have probably let her know right away and asked for help.

I spent 20 minutes telling myself that I shouldn’t bother her and that everything was fine. I only called her over when the blood started spilling onto the pillow they’d put under my arm.

How do you deal with boredom?

I answered this one already. :>

Is there an image or song that evokes strong emotions for you?

There are SO MANY songs that give me hardcore feelings. I’m very emotionally tied to music and it’s always been very dear to me, so it’s easy for me to get wrapped up in a song. Some of my favorites that make me emotional are “This Isn’t The End” (Owl City), “Cosmic Love” (Florence + The Machine), and “Diamonds” (Passenger).

Have you ever done something even though the people around you disapproved?

Oh, completely. To give just one example, my whole coming out and simply existing as transgender has been a point of contention between my parents and I. I recently started hormone therapy despite them trying to discourage me and being extremely disapproving. Honestly, I just kind of finally decided to put myself before their approval and I haven’t regretted it yet.
