Dealing With Grief

Dealing with grief will be different for each person you encounter, some will cry for what feels like forever, some will talk constantly about the loss they've gone through, some will go off on their own and not talk about it to anyone, some will completely shut down whilst others will seem like nothings even happened. Whatever way you grieve, a loss of any kind is personal to you and is always acceptable. If you're struggling to talk about it with people who know you (which is completely normal) but you want to talk about it, then talking with a stranger online or maybe a therapist can be immensely helpful. 

Don't ever be ashamed about how you're grieving and never worry about what people think, they aren't you and they're not in your head. Just be true to yourself and grieve however works for you. 

I lost my mum to cancer when I was 9 and I honestly don't remeber much of it. I do remember feeling this giant wave of sadness and anger; those feelings have never gone away. Because I was so young I didn't fully grieve or come to terms with it until I got old enough to understand life and death more. I'm still dealing with it and I always will be, I wouldn't say I'm grieving still, but I always miss her and think about what life would be like if she never died. 

I still get waves of sadness even 12 years on and when that happens I like to be alone, looking at photos of her and listening to music. When I come out of that moment I always try to talk to someone about it as they often remind me I'm not crazy for still feeling the loss. 

Just because that works for me, don't feel like it has to work for you, because like I said we're all different. But one thing I would say that will most likely help everyone dealing with grief is allow yourself to feel it, cry if that's what you need, but some way make sure you listen to your emotions and feel the pain and loss. It'll help you get through the other side of it quicker than if you don't accept your feelings. 

Hope this kind of helps you and if you want anymore specific help please don't be afraid to message me and I'll do my best. Sending love and hugs to you all xxx

Love you Mumma❤

you can never please everybody. when you stand up for yourself, there will be people who think you’re overreacting or being a jerk. when you try your best to be kind to everyone you meet, there will be people who think you’re being fake or that you desperately want to be liked. you won’t ever be able to be the best version of yourself if you live for other people, because that ‘best version’ is entirely subjective and therefore impossible to embody. be your personal best, your personal favorite, and you’ll attract people who will see you that way as well.

If you were to create a guide on shitposting, what would the first few pages say?

make yourself laugh first and foremost.

avoid self-depreciating humor. there’s already too much of it, and you don’t want to encourage it in others. try humorous self-aggrandizing instead

you will eventually say something insensitive or inappropriate--learn to listen, to apologize, and to learn from your mistakes. 

care about your followers--and the effect you have on them. we’re all responsible for what we put out into the world--aim to have a positive impact.

the funniest shitposts will result organically from interacting with other lovely weirdos. my favorite thing about posting is how often i burst out laughing at the replies. 

make friends along the way. it’s fun to anonymously make people laugh, but we all need reciprocal, mutually supportive relationships. you shouldn’t have to feel like you’re always “on” and responsible for constantly performing. find people who make YOU laugh, and who you can laugh with.

watching your original posts get popular is intoxicating, especially if the people around you irl don’t really “get” you. it feels good to be validated, but it’s easy to get carried away. know when to just put your phone down and go eat a snack instead.

humor always carries a message. always. even when we don’t intend it to. that makes it a powerful tool, both to oppress and to uplift. be aware of what your message is, and PUNCH UP, NEVER DOWN.

be informative. by which i mean, share weird facts you love. just because more people need to KNOW these crazy things. 

your first priority is having fun. fun is my favorite source of success, online and irl. and having fun is a form of success in and of itself.

to reiterate: make yourself fucking cackle. if you’re cackling, you’ve already won.

ok, that’s my 2 cents. i gotta go research more facts about why the ocean is terrifying and we should be constantly anxious about it
