I really cannot emphasize enough the mental health benefits of abandoning the idea that you're special.
This goes both ways, both "You don't have to do everything singlehanded" and "You're not uniquely awful."
I just had a moment where i thought to myself “if i met myself when i was younger i would be kind to her. Hug her and keep her safe at all costs and try and cheer her up.”
Then another thought hit me: “why don’t i do that for myself now? Why do i have such disdain for the person i am now, but nothing but love and patience for the person i was? What is the difference?”
And i feel like i should continue reminding myself that until i realize, truly, that there is no difference between the two. I should have just as much patience and acceptance for the me sitting here today as i do for that little girl.
life is so good when ur reading a book and taking it w u everywhere like your little child
I got this idea from a recovering addict, but it kinda helps with non-linear healing from other problems.
But the idea is like to not use day streaks but instead use percentages. “I did x bad thing 100% of the time before, now I do it 70% of the time” You can see your improvement and it’s more encouraging than having a day streak you constantly break.
Unless you wanna use that streak as like a high score. Idk, that might help. But the idea is to try to not feel like you’re starting over from the beginning because it will make you want to give up.
And you can do it in reverse too. You can go from doing a positive thing 0% of the time to 40% of the time. And you may like not be getting past a day or two streak of doing it, but you’ve still made a ton of progress.
You can go from 100% to 50% or 0% to 50% and never get past a one day streak. But that 50% change is massive.
“Buying books is immensely comforting. Maybe I won’t read them immediately, but they make me feel so much better whenever I’m sad and blue. Just their presence, it’s like having more to look forward to.”
It’s okay to make things easier for yourself! Use the accommodations, eat easy food when your spoons are low, clean in unconventional ways! Take shortcuts when you need to. You don’t need to constantly push yourself to your limits. It is okay to make things easier on yourself. In fact, please make things easier for you when you can. You deserve that.
Love is beautiful …
You don’t plant the seed and eat the fruit on the same day. Please stop rushing yourself
Moving forward requires one foot in front of the other, not both at once. Take your time, relax, and take it one step at a time.

I’ll reread the same sweet messages 50x, I love kind words
you are not a machine. you are more like a garden. you need different things on different days. a little sun today, a little less water tomorrow. you have fallow and fruitful seasons. it is not a design flaw. it is wiser than perpetual sameness. what does your garden need today?
To me, songs are kind of like bookmarks. Have you ever listened to a song that you haven’t heard in a while, and all of a sudden, all the memories of that time period come back, and you remember what your life used to be like. They’re like milestones in your life.
“I promise you little by little the healing adds up.”
