Knight of Faith.
marxandsparks:

Is there a program
that locks you from accessing yr tumblr account when you are suffering from a combination of Seasonal Affective Disorder and being an unmedicated manic depressive who currently lacks any structure and is letting themself fall apart… sort of like the aps that block you from using yr cellphone after drinking?
