If you suffer from depression …
1. Instead of attacking yourself for how you feel, and demanding that you change, and “improve” who you are, be compassionate and caring and kind towards yourself.
2. Remind yourself this struggle is NOT something you chose. It’s something that’s unwanted, and is hard to fight against.
3. Don’t look to other people to help, and bolster, you. They also have their struggles, so their help is limited.
4. Our feelings are affected by a lot of different things – and that affects our thinking – so our thinking’s often wrong!
5. Feelings often hit us for no apparent reason – so if we’ll just be patient, we may find they’ll change again.
6. Remember you are loveable and truly valuable. Don’t listen to your feelings, and the lies you hear them speak.
7. Do something that distracts you – like some work or exercise – but don’t add too much pressure while you’re feeling low and weak.
You can’t read The Six Wives Of Henry VIII by Antonia Fraser and NOT feel the worst for Katherine Howard out of all of them.
Granted, Anne got killed too, but at least she was smart and savvy and old enough to know what she was getting into.
Katherine Howard was just a ditsy, silly, unintelligent teenage girl in way over her head. That’s why her story is so sad.
If Henry had been one bit of the good Christian he claimed to be, he’d have just had her banished or sent to a convent.
That he insisted on her death basically tells you what a frigging sociopath he was.
Out of all the wives, Katheryn Howard tugs hardest at my heartstrings. She was such a sweet, tender-hearted girl. She tried so hard to be a good queen. Every one of her recorded actions during her reign is one of kindness… Instead of buying jewels and finery for herself, she used her privy purse to buy clothing for the elderly Countess Pole because she’d heard the old lady suffered from the cold in the Tower. She didn’t really know this woman - they certainly weren’t in the same social circles. And she’d get absolutely nothing out of assisting a prisoner deep in the king’s disfavor. But she did it anyway.
Likewise, she was kind to Princess Elizabeth. Yes, the girl was her cousin, but she was a bastard, and a female bastard was one of the most useless things on the planet. Also in the king’s disfavor, no one wanted anything to do with the child. But Katheryn took it upon herself to be kind to her, seating the girl across from her at dinner, and sending her gifts.
She interceded, too, for Thomas Wyatt, begging the king for mercy. Conor Byrne says she did this for at least five other people.
Henry killed her because she wasn’t a virgin when he married her. His famous tantrum when he screamed and demanded a sword to slay her himself came before the investigation found she’d been meeting with Thomas Culpepper. That was just icing on the proverbial cake. Adultery was never proven or even seriously alleged - just that she’d met with him with the intentions of continuing her “sordid life.”
Katheryn died because she broke the king’s heart and made him look like a fool. Henry was publicly proven not to be the expert on women he’d claimed to be, able to discern a woman’s purity from the firmness of her breasts.
It was why he passed the ridiculous law making it treason for a woman to conceal her sexual past when the king expressed an interest in marrying her.
She didn’t have to die for him to end his marriage to her and end any doubt about the legitimacy of future heirs. After all, his next wife was a woman believed to be infertile.
She had to die because he now hated her as much as he’d loved her. This woman he’d bragged was the perfect wife, for whom he thanked God he’d found after all of his previous marital turmoil.
He hated her so much that he didn’t even give her the mercy of the sword. After the hideously botched execution of Margaret Pole, Katheryn had to be terrified… and he knew it.
He kept her waiting for months to find out what he was going to do to her. Kept her isolated in in old nunnery with nothing to do all day but worry. No wonder Lady Rochford broke down under similar conditions in her own prison.
More than any of the other wives, Katheryn Howard was sacrificed on the altar of Henry’s ego. She died because of Henry’s sexual jealousy. (Executing Dereham, whose only crime had been sleeping with an unmarried girl years before she met the king was just petty and spiteful.)
History has compounded this cruelty by making her the wife who “deserved it.” Dismissing her as an empty-headed twit, interested only in jewels and dancing and boys.
But the truth is that she - like many of Henry’s other queens - was chosen for a role she never sought, tried to make the best of it and be a good queen, and was destroyed because of Henry’s ugly personality.
I almost forget that: She didn’t even get the decency of a fancy swordsman who would finish her off quick and painlessly.
Anne got that, at least.
Henry was incredibly cruel with Katherine. He gave her a casual executioner.
Before her death she asked for the chopping block to be brought to her room so she could practice putting her head on it, because she was a lady and if she was going down, she’s going down with dignity and decorum, so she would not show herself up. I find this a big fuck you to the King but also sad because she practiced her death and she was so young.
One of history’s biggest dickbags
Funny thing about Henry: He famously dumped Anne of Cleves because he simply didn’t want or desire her.
But even after they were divorced, he still kept a strict check on any lovers or suitors she might have. He had spies. He didn’t want her finding someone else.
Because even if he didn’t want her, it didn’t mean she got to move on from him.
The man was an outright psychopath.
the biggest (literally) psychopath in history wtaf
His own daughter was worried he might execute her.
His own daughter.
Speaking of Katherine Howard, the more I think about her story, the more I come to think she WASN’T a ‘ditsy, silly, unintelligent teenage girl’. lol she was a teenager yes, but I mean I don’t think she was ditzy or silly or unintelligent. I think she was very intelligent, just her actions alone display intelligence on her part.
What I think is that her biggest failing was her youth. She was manipulated from childhood, a victim of childhood sexual abuse, someone used by much older people to make gains for themselves by using her body and relationship with the king. Like, Thomas Culpepper was a RAPIST, I’m sure he manipulated her, and I remember reading how one time one of her ladies, I think Jane Boleyn (Anne Boleyn’s sister-in-law) tried to leave her alone with Culpepper and Katherine scolded her for being irresponsible (or something like that).
It’s funny, for the longest time I always dismissed KH as just a stupid girl who foolishly purposely cheated on the king, but I think that was just looking at things from the male perspective that’s been forced on her through the ages.
Though let’s be real, henry was an absolute shit to all his women; Catherine of Aragon was cruelly mistreated and died sad and alone. Anne was older, but she was forced into a relationship with him. Jane tried to speak up against him one time and he threatened her life with the memory of Anne’s fate. Catherine Parr was threatened with her life as well but was lucky in that by the time she showed up he was old and weak and tired so she was able to talk her way out of trouble.
The point of Katherine Howard.
Maybe she was dumb. Maybe she was smart. Historians will argue.
But in no way did she deserve THAT shit.
She was innocent enough.

ATLA MMORPG
This idea is gold and i will never understand why nobody got onto it.
An mmorpg based around the world of Avatar the last airbender.
You can start off by choosing nation, then your appearence and gender, then your name.
If you chose airbender, you join in the southern air temple, fire benders start at a firebending academy, waterbenders start in the southern water tribe, earth benders in a village or small city such as omashu.
You can travel all over the world by multiple means of transport, particularily mounts that you can buy and unlock through small storylines or gain as mission rewards, spirit mounts being very rare. Maybe fire nation boats from destinations across the fire nation, water tribe boats for cross water nation travel, air balloons for airbenders to the other temples, carts to different earth kingdom territories. You could have main areas for each nation, northern air temple for air nomads, ba sing se for earthbenders, northern water tribe for water benders and the capital fire nation city for firebenders.
As you level up, you gain more abilities based around your element, but at some point you can unlock challenges to eventually learn a sub-bending technique such as metal bending for earthbenders, lighting bending for firebenders, flying for airbenders, bloodbending for waterbenders, lava bending for earth and firebenders, healing for waterbenders and airbenders.
You can start relationships with npcs or other players, join players from other nations to face challenges, earthbenders = tanks + dps
Firebenders = dps
Waterbenders = dps and healing
Airbenders = dps and healing
You can unlock gear for your respective nation and when you master your element and sub bending, you can enter the spirit world for even more missions that can be bender specific or open missions.
Firebenders can challenge each other to Agni kai, waterbenders train against each other, earthbenders fight tournaments and airbenders do races with gliders and airorbs.
Different paths for each nation to choose from, fire military for fire nation, justicars for the water tribes (capturing rogue dangerous waterbenders), helping people who send in help requests as an airbender and something else for earthbenders.
Eventually you come to the attention of your nations highest figure, the firelord for the fire nation, the grand monk for air nomads, the water tribe leader for water nation and the earth king for earth kingdom.
When you have maxed all elements at least once, you can unlock an avatar, born into the first element you chose for your first character, the game progresses with brand new material for the avatar character, mostly centered around the spirit world and your past lives.
Each expansion could be based around each nation too!
You cant tell me this wouldnt make an amazing game!

“John Henry, John Henry, John Henry is a mighty man.”
— John Henry (2000)
It’s so easy....
To feel out of control...
Too easy to give into comfort and security.
But even security can be a mask...
I am defined by who is holding my head...
By who is leading me on because I cannot find my own strength...
My own independence....
I am constantly threatened so I back out...
I let go of what I know...
The difficult things....
And look for something new and easy to tell me who I am....
But I too wear a mask....
And underneath the mascara runs and the tears flow...
And when I turn and lift the mask...
Security is gone
Comfort is gone
They are gone....
Because I walked away from love and companionship when it became too hard for me.....
I walked away because I am not strong....
I walked away because I am the problem....
And so put back on my mask.....
I walk away unmoving....
Until new comforts wrap me in security....
And numbly I follow...
As if I ever gave myself a choice....
