Can you make some daily reminders for selfshippers with paranoia?
Hummm yeah I can do that! The formatting will be minimalist cause I don't do this very often (I think I've only done two so far?) so I hope that's alright! I also based this off of general struggles with paranoia rather than anything specific so I hope that works :D

Daily Reminders (For Selfshippers with Paranoia);
F/O-based general comfort:
<3 There's never such thing as a "stupid" or "unimportant" reason for you to be afraid. Admittedly, your F/O might not always understand what's happeningβ but they want to help, so they let you take the lead on informing them
<3 Whether your F/O does a bunch of research into what might assist you, they sit patiently beside you as you talk it out, or even if they don't quite know what to do and their comforting comes out stiff/awkward.. they want you to know that you don't have to go through bad episodes alone, and it's never a bother to them
<3 There's never a bad time to ask for reassurance. Even if you're spiraling over what some people would call "small" or "weird". Your F/O understands, because it matters to you, so it matters to them, too. Even if all you need is for them to sit nearby and remind you that they love you. They don't mind, even if they're not the best at showing it. You're their top priority
For those who have paranoia about selfshipping itself:
<3 However you choose to present your selfship, you're doing great! There is no "right" or "wrong" way to selfship. Your relationship should be tailored to whatever makes you comfortable! Love canon? Keep it. Hate it? Toss it out. The fandom and the canon are their own thingsβ your selfship is for you, and you only. You're never "too much" or "too little" with it
<3 Social media can be extremely demanding. Algorithms are unfair, posting times are really hard to track, and consistently posting every day isn't possible for many of us. It's okay to not have a blog dedicated to your selfship. It's okay if you have one or two pieces of merch, or none, if you can only selfship in private, or with close friends. Your ship is still worthy of love, you are doing enough
<3 Your feelings are real and valid, no matter how they may seem to strangers. The last thing your F/Os want is to make you think they would mock, belittle, or otherwise undermine your fear. You're theirs, exactly as you are, not in spite of it. They'll help you if you ask for it, or leave you alone if that's what you prefer. You're never asking too much
