The narrative was horrible to begin with.

"How do I stop being scared of-" You do it scared. The courage arrives WITH the action, not before it. Don't wait to feel confident before you act because the key to confidence is usually doing the thing while still scared as fuck

Less "I'm sure you're smart!" More "You don't have to be smart to be a worthy and valuable person"

Less "You have so much potential!" More "What you can do NOW already matters. You don't have to do or achieve more to be valuable."

Less "You can do it!" More "It's okay if it turns out that you can't do it. I will value you regardless"

Less "You will get better!" More "Recovering fully isn't a requirement for figuring out how to live a good and meaningful life"

Less "You have no limits!" More "You don't have to push through the boundaries and limits of your body and mind to prove that you're trying. You're doing enough."

Less "Think positive, be happy!" More "It's impossible to be happy and positive all the time. Don't blame yourself for being real."

Less "Keep trying no matter what!" More "Sometimes you gotta get off the wrong path to find the right one. Changing your mind about something isn't inherently a failure."

Less empty platitudes and toxic positivity - more compassion!

Realistically I could never get rid of tumblr because it gives me the illusion of a community of strange young women all around my same age, all slowly figuring out how to live too

Types of relationships that look like love but are not:

Infatuation: This is an intense emotional or sexual attraction to someone that can give the illusion of love. However, infatuation is often based on idealized perceptions rather than a deep emotional connection.

Codependency: Codependent relationships involve one person excessively relying on another for emotional or physical needs. This dependency can mimic love, but it is rooted in the need for validation, control, or a sense of purpose.

Unrequited love: This refers to a situation where one person has romantic feelings for another, but those feelings are not reciprocated. It may involve one-sided affection, longing, or an obsession with someone who does not feel the same way.

Limerence: Limerence is an intense and obsessive form of attraction characterized by intrusive thoughts, longing for reciprocation, and an idealized image of the other person. It can feel like love, but it often lacks a genuine emotional connection.

Conditional love: In relationships based on conditional love, affection and care are only given when certain conditions or expectations are met. This type of relationship lacks unconditional acceptance and can be manipulative or controlling.

Trauma bond: A trauma bond forms when two individuals share intense emotional experiences, often negative or abusive. Despite the harmful dynamics, there may be a strong attachment due to the shared trauma, leading to a mistaken perception of love.

Transactional relationships: These relationships are based on mutual benefit or convenience rather than genuine emotional connection. Partners may stay together for financial security, social status, or other practical reasons, rather than genuine love and affection.

Manipulative relationships: Manipulative relationships involve one person exerting control and power over the other through emotional manipulation, coercion, or gaslighting. The manipulator may feign love and affection to gain control or exploit their partner's vulnerabilities.

Fantasy relationships: In fantasy relationships, one or both partners create an idealized version of the other person, often based on unrealistic expectations or fantasies. The relationship may lack a true emotional connection, as it is based on the person's fantasy rather than the reality of who their partner is.

One-sided relationships: These relationships are characterized by an imbalance of effort, care, or emotional investment. One person may consistently give more while the other takes without reciprocation. It can create an illusion of love, but it lacks equality and mutual respect.

Love addiction: Love addiction refers to a compulsive or obsessive pattern of seeking out relationships and being dependent on the euphoric feeling of being in love. It can lead to a cycle of unhealthy relationships, as the person seeks constant validation and excitement without addressing underlying emotional issues.

If you have no other option, you will succeed.

"I'll figure it out" is a powerful statement. Yes, you may not know what to do next or where to even begin... but you are ready and willing to do what it takes. You will in fact figure it out.

It’s about showing up. Your best doesn’t always have to be 100 but it should be 100 of all you can give. Even if that’s 5% that day. And that’s enough. Not only is it enough, but it does what it’s suppose to do. Helps build mental stamina, confidence and discipline. Should you push yourself to do a little more? Absolutely. But that won’t always be the case and that’s okay! More than often, people will get discouraged and give 0 when they know they cant give 100 because society has conditioned them to believe that if it isn’t, you’re not getting anything done. Completely ignoring the fact that success is more mental than it is physical. Do the best you can do and be proud of yourself for it.

You won’t grow from easy, convenient or comfortable.

What you (think) is uncomfortable… go past that, and just start unpacking! That “growth” that you’re looking for resides in the deepest, darkest pit of uncomfortableness.
