normalize not forcing people to choose you. If someone thinks they can get better elsewhere – let them try. Respectfully.
growing up and maturing is realising that people including yourself make mistakes. all of us learn from it. we grow and be better, for ourselves. not for anyone else’s sake. maturing is knowing you’ve done something wrong, accepting it and continue to work to become a better version of yourself.
it's not overreacting, we all have different levels of sensitivity. if it hurts, it hurts. no explanation needed
You’ve grown into someone who would have protected you as a child. And that is the most powerful move you made.
as long as i exist, you are loved.

sending love to all my folks with unsupportive, neglectful, controlling or abusive parents. if you’re still living with them, please remember it won’t have to be this way forever. do your best to protect your own self and your privacy! you don’t owe them anything, no matter what they tell you. i am rooting for you and i want you to know you deserve a better life than living in the shadows of shitty parents.
Don’t listen to anyone that tells you you should be “over it” by now (including yourself). There is no timeline for healing.
the first step to recovery is acceptance.
accepting that you are living with an illness, one that you did not ask for nor is it any fault of your own.
accepting that you are worthy of a healthy life fully of happiness, love and healing.
accepting that healing is NOT linear.
accepting that healing takes time, and to heal is to feel.
accepting that you can get better.
accepting yourself for who you are.

to heal is to feel
for my first official post i would like to share an exert from my college essay on my personal struggles with mental health.
"Living with PTSD is never easy. No one ever signs up for this. The hardest obstacle I’ve had to tackle is the realization that my past is not my fault. There will always be bad days, but there will be good days also. There is so much more to you than your diagnosis. It would be a wasted life if I allowed my PTSD to hold me captive. To Heal is to Feel, and I am ready to accomplish both."
There is no "right" or "wrong" way to react to trauma. There is only survival. You do what you can until you can get out and get safe, and that is the only thing that should ever matter. You deserve to be respected for how you cope with your pain. But you also deserve to be respected enough to know you're worth the effort to heal and seek recovery if you so choose.
