Friendly reminder

“Doing your best” does not mean working yourself to the point of a mental breakdown.

this one still smashes me in the face ten times a year. do not ignore pain, it’s no longer your best at that point

it’s just so triggering to me bc that’s the exact phrase abusers use when they know they’re doing wrong and they want to intimidate their victims. i mean i’ve literally been told that by people who were abusing me, or trying to. it’s not “keep your mouth shut” it’s “do as i say or i will end you”

Respect yourself enough to say ‘I deserve peace’ and walk away from the people or things that are preventing you from attaining that.

depression tips™

shower. not a bath, a shower. use water as hot or cold as u like. u dont even need to wash. just get in under the water and let it run over you for a while. sit on the floor if you gotta.

moisturize everything. use whatever lotion u like. unscented? dollar store lotion? fancy ass 48 hour lotion that makes u smell like a field of wildflowers? use whatever you want, and use it all over. 

put on clean, comfortable clothes. 

put on ur favorite underwear. cute black lacy panties? those ridiculous boxers u bought last christmas with candy cane hearts on the butt? put em on.

drink cold water. use ice. if u want, add some mint or lemon for an extra boost.

clean something. doesn’t have to be anything big. organize one drawer of ur desk. wash five dirty dishes. do a load of laundry. scrub the bathroom sink. 

blast music. listen to something upbeat and dancey and loud, something that’s got lots of energy. sing to it, dance to it, even if you suck at both.

make food. don’t just grab a granola bar to munch. take the time and make food. even if it’s ramen. add something special to it, like a hard boiled egg or some veggies. prepare food, it tastes way better, and you’ll feel like you accomplished something. 

make something. write a short story or a poem, draw a picture, color a picture, fold origami, crochet or knit, sculpt something out of clay, anything artistic. even if you don’t think you’re good at it.

go outside. take a walk. sit in the grass. look at the clouds. smell flowers. put your hands in the dirt and feel the soil against your skin.

call someone. call a loved one, a friend, a family member, call a chat service if you have no one else to call. talk to a stranger on the street. have a conversation and listen to someone’s voice. if you can’t, text or email or whatever, just have some social interaction with another person. even if you don’t say much, listen to them.

cuddle your pets if you have them/can cuddle them. take pictures of them. talk to them. tell them how u feel, about your favorite movie, a new game coming out.

[witchie--woman-deactivated20170]

To add on to the last one. If you don’t have pets, stuffed animals!

Thousands got out today in airports to protest against Trump’s Muslim Ban singing “This Land is Your Land.” and a Federal judge has been able to block the Muslim Ban but it’s only a temporary fix so pls if you’re american Call your member of Congress and demand they overturn the ban for good! if you can’t or aren’t american but able financially pls donate to the ACLU.

To everyone who is protesting at airports: you are heroes. To everyone currently detained: you are loved.

Weed 👏🏻 can 👏🏻 cause 👏🏻depressed 👏🏻anxious 👏🏻 or psychotic 👏🏻 behavior 👏🏻in 👏🏻some 👏🏻people

Doesn’t matter what strain. Doesn’t matter if it’s high grade medical. If you support weed for health then you need to support that is also not okay for every single human being. For some of us it aggravates our issues.

(I’d really love to see some support on this from weed blogs, because that’s who I’m aiming at who usually refuse to accept this fact)

For real! And it may not happen every time! I had a severe panic attack the other night while smoking from a bag I’d had for some time and had no negative affects on before. It’s so important to recognize that the chemical affects on the brain can be harmful for some!

[perse-phoneee-deactivated202007]

This is important! If you’re planning on smoking for the first time, I recommend doing it around people you trust and in a safe, comfortable place in case you do have a bad reaction. And just know that you aren’t “broken” if you dislike being high or find that you react badly to it. Never let anyone shame you for not smoking. And if they do, they aren’t your friends. Your own health comes first

[bree-3po-deactivated20190814]

I’m really sick of pro-pot people talking down to me when I say I quit smoking pot because it made my anxiety worse. “It’s supposed to help anxiety.” Yeahwell I think I know my own body and I wouldn’t have smoked for damn year 10 years if I were some sort of scared, anti-pot ninny. Like you can be pro-pot, that doesn’t mean you have to take someone not smoking it personally (or pretend that smoking pot makes you a fucking doctor).

Neurodivergent/disabled people do things when they’re alone that they don’t do in front of other people.

When someone says they have/do certain symptoms/behaviours, do not argue that they don’t, just because you’ve never seen them do it. “You don’t stim,” “I’ve never seen you talking to yourself,” “You don’t get panic attacks; I would’ve noticed,” is ridiculous.

Sometimes we can’t do these things in front of others, because we’d be told to stop; because we’re being thoughtful of/making things easier for other [disabled] people around us; because it’s embarrassing… a lot of reasons. Do not think a neurodivergent person’s behaviour comes down to what they display in front of you, is what I’m trying to say.

(And that’s without mentioning internal distress and damaging/difficult thought processes that we don’t always react to (cry, discuss, self-harm), even when alone.)
