“Sometimes we just have to cut off the dead branches in our life. Sometimes that’s the only way we can keep the tree alive. It’s hard and it hurts, but it’s what’s best.”

“Avoid people who mess with your head. Avoid people who intentionally and repeatedly do and say things that they know upset you. Avoid people who expect you to prioritize them but refuse to prioritize you. Avoid people who can’t and won’t apologize sincerely. Avoid. Avoid.”

Don’t stick with a friend that treats you like shit. I’ve done it and 10/10 would not recommend

Don’t text that toxic person. Don’t check their social media. Don’t take it to heart when your friends bring them up. Don’t bring them up - talking about them only reinforces their presence in your life. Don’t let it bother you when you see them in passing.

What’s done is done. Let it go. You have people who care about you. You will find love again. You will have good days and bad days, but remember to appreciate the happy moments and not dwell on the bad. You will be okay. You are capable. You are strong. You are enough. You have made it through so much, and you will make it through this moment too. Keep going, you’re doing great.

The other day I had to explain to someone what dissociation is and I had this moment of total disorientation like… the majority of my fellow human beings have no idea what dissociation, hypervigilance, blunted emotions etc are because they’ve never had a reason to learn. There are people living their lives without all of this bullshit I deal with on a daily basis and I cannot fathom what that must be like, to have that kind of freedom, to have the luxury of not knowing all the ways the human brain can falter when faced with trauma.
