This is part of a series of FNAF One-Shots I've been working on. Some of them get a little long, so I decided to give them their own mini-books :)

This story is partially a suggestion I really wanted to work with, a Count the Ways!Funtime Freddy x Reader; plus a request for a Yandere!CTW!Funtime Freddy x Brokenhearted!Reader.

Suggested by @StrawberriWhipp on Quotev ; Requested by @Moltenheart2 on Quotev )

I also kind of wanted to do this as a partial rant, so aspects of my own life will be thrown in here 😆😅 I'll explain those in a minute. 

As always, this is written from a (Y/n)-central perspective, so it's kept fairly neutral - so anyone can read! :)

General SiMAS Information: 

(Y/n) in this story is written to have vocal cord dysfunction. It's a fairly prominent (and annoying) part of my life, so I decided to add it. I'll leave some links with more details on them below, but for anyone who wants a quick summary, it basically makes talking and breathing... interesting. Vocal Cord Dysfunction (VCD) is where your vocal cords do pretty much the exact opposite of what they're supposed to, so they close when they're supposed to open, and open when they're supposed to close. To give a couple of examples from my own experiences of what this is like, you have trouble breathing, and talking is way more of a chore than it needs to be. I have so much of a struggle with talking that I literally choke when I try because of my vocal cords, and I'm only audible if I'm excited about something. Otherwise, you will never hear me when I talk. It's actually pretty painful, and I can't talk for more than an hour consistently or else my throat will give up on life itself, haha ^^; ...

(Y/n) in this story is written to be socially awkward and anxious. Another problem I have is anxiety; especially in social situations. It actually gets as bad as devolving into agoraphobic episodes sometimes, but I have means of trying to keep control over it. I wrote (Y/n) to share in some of these, though (Y/n) is a lot more blunt and confident than I could ever be, hahaha ^^; . As a warning, I'll be adding some descriptive scenes of what anxiety attacks look like for me; they're not the same for everyone, but these are based off my own experiences. I also might add descriptions of (Y/n) taking medication to try to mitigate these episodes based off my own experiences as well. 

HOWEVER, I MUST ADD AS A DISCLAIMER AND GENERAL WARNING - DO *N O T* TAKE MEDICATION CARELESSLY. ADDICTION AND OVERDOSE IS NO JOKE AND SHOULD NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, BE TAKEN LIGHTLY. P L E A S E BE RESPONSIBLE WITH YOUR MEDICATION/S AND SEEK HELP IF YOU'RE ADDICTED TO A SUBSTANCE.

I PROMISE YOU'RE WORTH SO MUCH MORE!

*** I have a drug tolerance/resistance, so taking enough of a given medication makes me practically unresponsive to it. Medications that I don't take frequently (ones that are only 'take as needed'), I don't develop as much of a resistance to. However, medications that I have to take often (especially daily medications) will quickly stop working on me - typically after only a few doses. 

I have a daily medication to manage my anxiety on a general, base level, but also an 'as needed' emergency medication that I take only when I really need it. This makes it easier to manage, while giving me an alternative that will last much longer than my daily medication will. I do still get used to my emergency medication if I take it too much too soon, but as long as I monitor my intake and work through triggering scenarios through therapy, I can better handle my anxiety and increase the longevity of my medication. ***
