The hours between 12am and 6am have a funny habit of making you feel like you’re either on top of the world, or under it.

Columbia University Student Will Drag Her Mattress Around Campus Until Her Rapist Is Gone
“I think the act of carrying something that is normally found in our bedroom out into the light is supposed to mirror the way I’ve talked to the media and talked to different news channels, etc,” Emma continues in the full video which you can watch here.
So, I just want to go into HOW MUCH Columbia and the NYPD has failed, and revictimized, Emma Sulkowitz.
What I really love about this ‘mattress performance’ is that other students helped her carry her mattress across campus.
All those people reminded her that she didn’t have to carry that weight alone. That’s amazing.
This is probably a stupid question but I think i’m having a hard time actually gaining weight. Should I just be eating 24/7 like I really don’t know what to do. I know i’m probably still not eating as much as i should be, but I don’t want to keep track to get into bad habits again. Can anyone help with this?
This is one of the most disgusting fucking shit I’ve ever seen. First of all, you’re making her weight gain look like a joke. You’re making fun of this girl for gaining weight. These are fellow girls and I’m positive a MAJORITY of them are not even a size zero. Everyday we’re talking about how we should not be judged on our size and yet here ya’ll are making fun of Selena for it. She’s literally having fun in the picture, in the water, not even worrying about her weight but all of you are worrying about her and bringing up Justin Beiber when this has absolutely nothing to do with him! And what the hell does “Selena is the new Demi” mean? Demi had an eating disorder, please, PLEASE don’t you dare bring a disorder into your sick joke, that is vile. Gaining or losing weight doesn’t mean you have an eating disorder. Stop trying to bring other girls down just because you’re not a fan of them or they dated your favorite celebrity. She looks gorgeous, as always. Leave her alone.
Those pictures are also a good four years apart and she looks amazing in both. She also posted on Instagram that she’s happy with herself which is awesome cause things seemed rough for her last year. Seriously, celebrities like her grew up in the spotlight and unlike teen male stars, the girls have had their bodies picked apart since they were 13. Let the girl be happy and gorgeous.
Lessons learned from the side of a hospital bed
1. Who you are now is not who you will be in 10 years. It is okay to be somebody new 10 minutes from now. We are always learning. We are always growing. If you realized 10 seconds ago that you don’t like who you are, shed your skin, retry, replant yourself in good soil.
2. Cleaning is instant therapy. When your brain is muddy, take a shower, wash your hands, change your clothes. Spend 15 minutes straightening your living room. When you are angry, scrub things. I know it’s crazy but it works instantly.
3. Forgive someone’s debt if it’s under 50 dollars, forgive the small things, give a little time to yourself and forgive the big things too. Forgiveness isn’t about the other person, it’s about you. That being said - if someone ever hurts you in a way that would make me cry to know, you get out of there, my love. You just get up and go.
4. Gum karma is real and if you spit out a piece in public expect to find some on your shoe in the future. Same goes for insults and harsh judgement, too.
5. Do what you love and the money will follow.
6. Live your life with an open palm and give as much as you can and as often. At some point in your life, someone will lend you 50 bucks when you’re down on your luck. Remember how that feels. Remember to give that back.
7. Always wear clean underwear. You’ll thank me later.
8. There is a difference between being kind and being passive and there are those who cannot see that difference. They will try to walk all over you. Never bend your knees for those who do.
9. Have faith. Have faith in god or people or yourself or science or in luck or in all of the above. Faith is what keeps us going, faith is what keeps us strong.
10. Pay your bills on time whenever you can, although money is nothing. Remind yourself that.
11. Do not forget you were once ignorant of all you know now. Be patient of anyone who hasn’t had the education you have. Speak at the level of the person you are with - it’s not playing dumb, it’s being considerate. There’s no reason to make them feel uncomfortable. Plus then when someone starts going off about their superior IQ, you can cut them to pieces and watch their face when you do.
12. You are the best person in the room for one particular thing, and that’s confidence. You are the worst person in the room for another thing, and that’s humility. Use both carefully.
13. Never make fun of someone’s beliefs or superstitions, let your kid keep their imaginary friend and let your best buddy believe in knocking on wood. We all have security blankets. Don’t take away someone else’s.
14. Try to learn something new every day.
15. The worse you look, the more likely you are to run into someone you know so instead of feeling awkward, learn to be confident in sweats while talking to your friends.
16. Never go to bed angry, it will ruin your sleep and make tomorrow even harder. Find a way to relax. Don’t let today get to your head.
17. Think before you speak. When someone says something, mull over their words before answering. This is called listening, it is different than hearing.
18. What keeps love beautiful is that there’s risk involved. If he breaks your heart and it doesn’t hurt, it wasn’t love in the first place.
19. Never let someone else determine who you are or how happy. You are too strong to be torn apart.
20. I love you, even when we are fighting, even when I am fast asleep. Don’t doubt it for an instant. You are my everything.
You wake up every morning to fight the same demons that left you so tired the night before, and that, my love, is bravery.

I don’t recommend watching this unless you’re in a good place mentally, as it has the potential for being a trigger.

"My only memory of my mom is her dying. I remember the doctors were in her room trying to save her. And I remember I was screaming, and my dad was crying, and I kept trying to run into her bedroom, but every time I got to the door, my father would catch me and bring me back to the couch."
Moving on
I’ve decided to move on from this blog as a “recovery blog” and more of a blog to express my own thoughts, views, opinions, and life in general as it happens for me. Of course this blog will still have recovery aspects to it, as anorexia, depression, anxiety, and recovery from it all remains a very prominent part of my life. I just don’t want it to be the only part of my life, anymore. I am so thankful for everyone who helped me along the way, and know that I will always still be here to help with any eating disorder/mental illness related problems, as I am still going through them myself - this blog will simply no longer be dedicated to my struggles, but instead, my life as a whole.
"while sitting on brighton beach back in 2005 with my new girlfriend, verity, i thought the view of our feet pointing out to sea would make a nice photo. ever since then we’ve continued to document our travels in this way, resulting in a collection of over 100 photos. in 2011 the series took a new twist with the arrival of a third set of feet – our daughter matilda. you can already see her little feet getting bigger and bigger."

This is beautiful
Get over yourself
It’s kind of pathetic when the dreams you have for your life depress you. That’s not the point. They’re supposed to inspire you and motivate you to accomplish more, and leave you feeling excited and hopeful for the future. If you dream of travelling and get depressed seeing a picture of someone else doing it because you think you’ll never get that, you’re doing it wrong. Don’t sit around and dwell over the fact that it’s never going to happen - MAKE it happen
How to study when you don’t want to:
Music: songs which you don’t know the lyrics to / without lyrics to drown out your inner voice that tells you to give up
Change your location: study outside, study on the floor, study in the library. Anywhere but your desk where you are likely going to procrastinate
Set a quick end time: 30 mins- 45 mins. That way the end is in sight and you won’t procrastinate because you feel like you can’t finish anything.
Set a end break time with a timer: this must be timed or it will become a whole day break! The shorter the study time, the shorter the break vice versa.
Get the first tick: the first tick on your task list is always the hardest. Once you get going it is much easier to keep on track.
I like to think taylorswift and I dance alike
What I would like to know is when people became so concerned with the way the body looks, instead of what it has to offer
Imagine if Blank Space had been recorded back in the 40′s…what might that have sounded like? I put an amp filter on PMJ’s version of it, and I gotta say, the 40′s sounds good with some taylorswift :)
Holy crap
THIS IS MY NEW FAVORITE THING. I WANT IT ON TOUR, I WANT IT ON CD, I WANT IT ON VINYL, I WANT IT PLAYING IN THE BACKGROUND AS MY FUCKING THEME MUSIC.
hey if you think somebody’s hair or face or eyes or outfit looks really good please tell them even if you don’t talk to them or know them very well because I guarantee you they will appreciate it and think about it all day and be happy you noticed
