Daphne Spirals

TW: Depression

I'm planning on making 1-2 more parts on this short internet series with a few other things sprinkled in, lmk what you want to know next

Daphne’s life was spinning out of control. She feels like a different person than she was before she had social media, but she couldn’t quit. Social media was the only thing that made her happy, but also made her depression and sadness that much worse. Daphne hadn’t left her room in days and hadn't talked to her family in weeks. She knew her family was worried about her, but she wasn’t willing to go out and face them. They would be so disappointed in her and how she is a loser who cares too much about what others think, at the detriment of her own health. She didn't deserve her family’s love anymore, and she isn’t sure they would even recognize her, she didn’t. She felt like a huge burden to them, especially her mom, who was extremely worried about her and was skipping out on things she loved to do to watch her. She needed to take a break from social media and learn some boundaries about what to post and who to deal with people on the internet, but she can’t. The internet and social media are her downfall and her salvation. It was an oxymoron, just like she was at that point. She never got out of bed but she never rested. She felt everything and nothing at the same time. She had changed so much to fit what the internet would want, and now no one is happy, especially not her. Her content was falling in quality and views, and she no longer found joy in what she was posting. She needed to do something, but she didn’t think she deserved to grow and nobody would want to or be able to help her in the way she so desperately needed.

Gourmand could tell something was off. Daphne had not spoken or reached out to him in weeks, the longest she had ever gone. Donita skipped their monthly dinner to ‘take care’ of Daphne, but she wasn’t sick or injured as far as he knew. It was because of that phone, he knew it. He knew it was a mistake for her to get it and wanted to just rip it out of her hands the moment it was in them. He didn’t know much about the internet or technology, he had no interest in it and didn’t want the government to know about where he was (I hc Gourmand as the biggest conspiracy theorist and believer ever) and social media had no appeal to him. He could see the obsession in Daphne and wanted to quell it. That kind of determination couldn’t be healthy, especially for something as useless as the internet. Daphne was throwing away her life for that phone, and dragging her mother down with her. He loved Daphne, but he needed to form some kind of way to drag her out of the depths of the comments and internet, and he needed to do it now. He would meet with all the important people in Daphne’s life tonight and figure out a plan of attack.

Missing people

TW: death

I'm tired of missing people. My family hasn't felt 'complete' in over 10 years and I can tell my sister is really suffering for it. She seems more angry at our family for the situation she put us in and is 'snapping' more often. I just miss my best childhood friend, who I can't contact for at least 6 months due to unforeseen circumstances, causing us to cancel our plans that we've both been looking forward to for months. We used to be really close but we don't get to see each other as often as we once did. I even miss the toxic people in my life, who were never truly my 'friends'. I miss the good times we had and all of the moments that were great in our friendship

I've also been struggling with the passing of my cousin. He was pretty young and it was out of the blue, and just blindsided our family. Another death in the family, so close to the previous couple, has really put a strain on my family, which was already strained.

TLDR: I miss people, even the one's who I know can't come back.

I'm so happy to be here! Violet and Zach are so cute together 😍!

Donita and her now ex husband Henry were a ‘whirlwind romance’ getting married only 19 months after first meeting. Donita continues to hold resentment towards Henry for being a bad husband and father when they were married and letting Daphne down throughout her life. Henry holds a lot of guilt towards Donita and especially Daphne, causing him to pull away from her even more and strain their relationship more. Henry was very concerned about Dabio’s relationship with Donita and was completely convinced they were having an affair despite both of them repeatedly denying it. In the beginning, Daphne resented Dabio for ‘breaking up her family’ and refused to speak to him. But, as time went on, Daphne realized that Dabio was not the reason for her parent’s divorce and began to talk to him more, learning they were quite similar.

First Post ~ Introduction

Hello everyone! I’m Octoqueen and I've been ‘lurking’ on this Tumblr for a while now so I figured its time to introduce my self insert, Daphne Donata, Donita’s only daughter.

She’s nineteen and an influencer/model of her mother’s designs. Her parents got divorced when she was seven, and her father is distant from her, opting to live with his new wife and children, who do not get along with Daphne. Donita is very close to her daughter and supports her, learning about the internet and how to further her own company through her daughter’s social media and the internet. Dabio is the father figure Daphne never had. They are extremely close and Daphne views him as her ‘real’ father, coming to him for any advice. Daphne has always had an infatuation with being famous, with her mother being a fashion designer and her father being a famous musician, but she wanted to be something new and different, starting up an Instagram account and quickly amassing new followers through her fashion reviews/runway looks and her travels around the world with her mother.
