I'd cut myself if the pain was enough. I'd burn myself if the pain was enough. But i'd have to cut and burn every inch of my skin til im covered in scars and i already did that. It wasnt enough.

How to accept and love yourself a little more:

Change your thoughts. Do not talk yourself down whenever you look in the mirror or when you make a mistake. I have said it a hundred times before but I will repeat it again: The way you talk to yourself matters so much, so watch your thoughts, recognise whenever they are negative and try to change them into positive ones (e.g. ‘I am so ugly’ becomes ‘I don’t like this about myself but I accept myself).

Change your words. Don’t use your words to make yourself or others feel bad. Don’t jude. Don’t gossip. Use your words to speak the good things in somebody. Spread positivity. And watch how the light is reflected on yourself.

Recognise your worth. It is easy to go around and feel worthless when you compare yourself to other people. Don’t compare. One thought that has really helped me when seeing someone I consider beautiful is: ‘They are beautiful but so am I’. Recognising the beauty in someone else should not devalue your own beauty.

Accept compliments. Don’t deny kind words of others. Let them in. Say thank you. Accepting them shows that you believe they are true (even if it is not the case yet) and can make you feel so much better.

Give yourself the love you deserve. This is a hard task, I am aware of that. But it is so important that you look in the mirror and tell yourself that you are an incredibly wonderful person. Say it to yourself. Think it. Write it down. Even if you are not convinced of it yet, the more you practice, the more you are going to manifest it as your truth.

You are just so beautiful, my love. And I hope that you will soon realise this yourself. You are doing an amazing job and I love you so much.

I did NOT go through all the shit that I went through just to give up now! I did NOT fight my own demons for YEARS just to let them win today! They do NOT get to have that power over me!

Whatever you have accomplished today I'm proud of you.

If you started that project

Set some boundaries

Done something for you

Fed yourself

Showered

Or even just existed

I see the effort you're making, and I am so, so proud of you. I know right now it might not feel worth it, but I see how strong youre being and I know you can make it Xx

Some days are solely meant for silent late night drives, exchanging stories with your closest friends across the bonfire and waking up at 3 pm. Some days are solely meant for adventures with the people you love.

Experiencing burnout in an area you love doesn’t mean you are no longer passionate about that thing, or are any less good at it. It’s often an indication that there are other parts of your life that need your care. A garden looks most beautiful when every flower is watered, and you deserve to nourish yourself in the same way. You will flourish again.
