I don’t have the courage to tell my friends I’ve been struggling with my mental health because there’s nothing anyone could do anyway. I’m not suicidal or anything like that, just very sad and tired and have been for a long time and I feel like a burden on my husband who is really kind and patient and deserves someone who can love him fully.

And communicating.

forgiving what exactly?

cozyhotpapi-deactivated20171211

Forgiving the fact that they’re people who are working through their past, like you, and will occasionally project their past traumas on you the way you might with them. Forgiving yourself, because growth takes time, and learning to be a pair is more work than just being on your own. Having partners you trust to forgive those moments where you might fall, help you back up and move forward, in my opinion, builds up the trust and love you need for a thriving relationship.

Daunt Books London

I am utterly in love with this bookstore. I’ll probably go there every time I’m in London from now on (not that I’m in London that often). Twelve books and one beautiful tote bag made it home with me (I couldn’t bring more due to luggage weight restriction).

If you ever find yourself in London, I would definitely recommend going there!

Therapists are just…. Common sense filters

Me: yeah so I just don’t have the energy to get up and make myself a sandwich or wait for something to cook so I just. Don’t

Her: why don’t you just eat the sandwich components without putting them together

Me:

Her: you can just eat a handful of cheese and some sandwich meat. You don’t have to make a sandwich.

Me:

Me: what

Therapists finding loopholes for mental illness things is one of my favorite things about dealing with mental illness because it really helps me understand that just because a reaction is Common doesn’t mean it’s Right. Does doing dishes stress you out a lot? Buy paper plates. Do your obsessive thoughts make you worry about leaving your curling iron on so you drive home from work to check? Just put the curling iron in your purse and bring it to work with you while we work on tackling where this worry comes from. Symptom management doesn’t have to look like drudgery.

What a punch

trashbandikyut-deactivated20181

This happened in Seattle. The nazi was shouting at people and telling folks of color to get out of the country, a crowd gathered after he chucked a banana at someone, anothe rperson told him off, then this guy punched him. No one called the cops. When he finally woke up he was asking for help getting up and the few who tried were told he’s a nazi and immediately dropped his ass. The cops finally had to come helpnpick his ass up. He refused to really tell the cops what happened as he took his armband off.

The story is fucking wild.
