I can’t remember when I last posted, but thank you to everyone who offered support for me. I am feeling a little better now that I am more consistent on my meds. I am still not feeling 100% normal, but maybe more like 70%?

Anyway, I did some Black Friday shopping online today. I'm honestly not a huge fan of consumerism, but my parents want to get me gifts and I feel it'd be wrong of me not to gift anything back. So, I got a bunch of things on sale that my parents needed anyway (like towels and slippers because both of those things have holes in them). Only downside is that I had to ruin the surprises because they were actually going to buy the stuff themselves.

I suppose I'll get my sister a cheap gift like fern46 was suggesting. Not sure what to get though. I'll have to think about that. Maybe makeup stuff, like a $20 gift card to Sephora. She'll probably be pissed though. She demands expensive gifts even though she doesn't reciprocate, not even partially. I am afraid she is going to go bankrupt when she moves out on her own in a few months, but my therapist said not to feel guilty for refusing to help out because she knows better and needs to start respecting people more.
