I am only gonna change for my own sake.

So the #depressed turned into an official diagnosis in my medical chart as well as generalized depression almost two years ago and now I will share some bits and pieces here that resonate with me.

Have you ever wanted to save someone from their own darkness so badly that you are willing to set yourself on fire just to light the way? Even if it melts your flesh and cracks your bones, you’d be okay with keeping them warm.

“So, maybe nobody loves me. Maybe nobody will ever love me. But maybe it’s not about being loved by someone else.”

The Diary of a Teenage Girl (via amortizing)

I may never get better. I may never retrieve the parts of me that I lost, but thank the heavens above for sending me someone to love every bit of me, even the broken and scarred pieces that lay scattered at my feet.

love me more than i love myself

Removing toxic people from your life is actually not the difficult part. Not feeling guilty about it is.

Have the courage to live the way you want to.

Many of us have been running all our lives. We have the feeling that we need to run—into the future, away from the past, out from wherever we are. In truth, we don’t need to go anywhere. We just need to sit down and look deeply to discover that the whole cosmos is right here within us.

Thich Nhat Hanh (via naturaekos)

You know the difference between promises and memories? We break promises, memories break us.

[yancore-goblin]

The way the tension and stress of my day just goes away when I see you makes me think that I more than like you.

[apikaliaa]

and i finally learned

not everyone you lose

is a loss.

[lilpieceofmyworld]

Cause you never think that the last time is the last time. You think there will be more. You think you have forever, but you don’t.

Meredith Grey , “Grey’s Anatomy” (via lilpieceofmyworld)

When someone makes you the happiest person and the saddest person at the same time, that’s when it’s real. That’s when it’s worth something.

[onlinecounsellingcollege]

One of the hardest things you will ever have to do is grieve the loss of a person who is still alive.

[qvotable]

Try to learn to breathe deeply, really to taste food when you eat, and when you sleep really to sleep. Try as much as possible to be wholly alive with all your might, and when you laugh, laugh like hell. And when you get angry, get good and agry. Try to be alive. You will be dead soon enough.

William Saroyan (via qvotable)

If anyone asked me “What is hell?” I would answer “Distance between people who love each other.
