It’s okay if your trauma didn’t make you stronger, or give you “thick skin”, or pull you out a better person
It’s okay if your trauma traumatized you
i'm tired.
the kind of tired you can't fix with a nights sleep.
i need weeks of sleep;
• naps
• care
• blankets
• comfort food
• gentle breeze
• fuzzy socks
• cleanliness
• cotton
• love and warmth to feel better.
and i am deserving of every one of those.
i am not a burden for needing rest. i am not lazy for needing time to recover. i am worthy.

[Remember: Some of these books have dark academia as their major aspect but most of them have dark academia as their minor aspect, and many of them have been put into the list because I got a dark academia kind of vibe from them. Moreover these books have a lot more to offer than just Dark Academia, even if we ignore that aspect, these books are just great pieces of literature. This list is entirely created out of my own reading researches, friendly recommendations, and book recs from reddit, pinterest and the internet in general. If I have gone wrong somewhere or if you want me to add something new, feel free to drop an ask.]

Ladies, be sure to conform to gender roles by dying tragically but tastefully offstage so a minor character can interrupt a fraught scene to announce your death to the gathered men.
