    I never understood it when people would talk about the sweetness of milk, but a year on and I'm starting to.

Interesting perspective. Never thought about it that way.

Been eating some sweet things the last couple of days. Feels like it's too much, even though it's nowhere near enough what I used to consume easily. Bought myself some sugary stuff to make myself feel better... and can't bring myself to eat it. Even sweet tea tastes weird. I wonder if it will ever taste the same again.

I think the kind of unmoderated consumption that I used to indulge in leads to all kinds of temporary mental regress - motivation, energy, mood - that I'm not willing to risk for temporary sugar high.

    Web, or IRL?

Intermeshed, for the same result. I've been thinking about it, and it may be more of an issue with what I am as a person (and the kind of vibe that I give off naturally) than with other people. Without outside perspective, it's hella difficult to say with certainty, and the only people who could attest with honesty are no longer willing to talk to me.
