It's a bit cringey I think. But also, some interesting points in here.

I agree with cybercore/Y2K
Seems similar to a few other aesthetics i've seen -- indie kid, a little bit dopamine/decora, thriftcore, ones along those lines. i don't think it's unique enough to warrant its own page but you're welcome to update pages you feel are similar!
So i stumbled across granola girlie by accident and love it. there isn't a page for it, and it isn't listed as an alternative name for adventurecore, i guess cause it's similar but has differences.
Is adventurecore too similar to granola girlie for it to have its own page? i'd love to write that page if not but don't want work to be wasted.
Thanks!
For some reason i can't see the whole board but from the thumbnail it kind of gives christian girl autumn
Woah! i love how you've grouped them here so it's easier to see how they overlap.

Hey! As someone who also has OCD, I get why you might think that. It's really difficult to treat the intrusive thoughts that go with it, but some of the symptoms like compulsions can be lessened. The idea is that you get exposed to something that's a trigger and, by repeated exposure without performing a compulsion or similar, it becomes less stressful for you until you can tolerate it. There's lots of videos on youtube about it if you want to learn more, as well as lovely stuff on wikipedia! If this is something you'd like to try, or you want to try lessening the impact of your OCD in general, reaching out to a therapist who is licensed in ERP is a great idea. I'm also linking a PDF about managing your symptoms on your own. Hope this helps! <3

Def preppy
Dark academia has a lot of houndstooth and tweed type patterns. i think wearing brightly colored sweaters, neon houndstooth, bright tweed, etc. Wearing dark academia patterns and shapes but in bright colors would be a good way of combining those, i think.
I think danish pastel is super cute! but it depends on what kind of vibe you want.
I think making your own stuff is really cool :) if someone said that you're not a "real lolita" or something that would be stupid. imo.
https://aesthetics.fandom.com/wiki/Pages_We_Need is a page with a list. if you think any of these are important enough to add to it, go ahead.
@Ungodlee here's the page! it's still a wip, you're welcome to edit https://aesthetics.fandom.com/wiki/Soft_Morningcore
