Friendly reminder that it’s OKAY if you’re incredibly productive one day but can’t get out of bed the next. That does not necessarily mean that you are regressing with your progress.
Our energy comes and goes, and it takes a while and a lot of practice to find a perfect balance. Take time to recharge yourself without feeling guilty for it!
Chores can wait, friends can wait. You are the most important person in your life, so feel free to take your time to heal.
sometimes healing feels a lot like falling apart
if you’re struggling lately, i hope this reaches you.
we will be okay. you will be okay. you will grow and evolve and heal. you will enjoy life again even if it’s not the same as it was the last time you were happy. you will live your life not feeling stuck. you will do more than survive. you will thrive.
things that made me stop wanting to die that require no effort whatsoever
change the color used to highlight text on your laptop
move the pictures on your wall
stack whatever clutter is in your room into piles even if you don’t have time to clean it all
slightly vary your commute, even just by one street
change where you sit and scroll aimlessly on your phone even if it’s only to the chair in your room instead of your bed
drink water or juice out of a wine glass in the morning because nothing is real
shower with the lights off, without music
buy $3 flowers at trader joe’s—they look bad next to the more expensive ones but they look so good in your room
start typing things you don’t post into your notes. your thoughts can be worth documenting even if you don’t deem them worth sharing
wake up super early just once. you don’t have to make it a habit it’s just extra satisfying to go to bed that night
listen to the entirety of your favorite album from 2015
Almost all of these are about variety. Humans need stimulation! We need enrichment! We literally cannot do the same thing every day!
The other day I was feeling miserable, so I hopped on a bus and rode it all the way back to where I’d started, and my brain, which had finally had some proper stimulation via new environments, was suddenly ready to go again!
This is why taking walks/drives and trying new hobbies are good for you! Don’t turn yourself into a sad zoo animal! You need some pumpkins to roll around in your enclosure!
ITS BACK!!!!!
god i fucking love the quote “dont turn yourself into a sad zoo animal” it has really inspired me!
One of the most dangerous things in the world is not being able to say no to people because you don't want to upset them or dissapoint them. This will completely ruin your life in every way possible, at work, in your private life, your sex life and your friendships. It's a way of removing your own consent in your own decisions and go against your wishes, it is always a crime against yourself. Let yourself have a say. Upsetting people is better than traumatizing yourself.
Hey, it's okay to grieve for the person you were, the person you could be right now. It's okay to be angry for all the things that were taken away from you. The things that you're still healing from. It's okay.
absolutely hate when people say you need to change the world or be rich as shit in order to be truly accomplished in life. fuck that. i'm over here watering my plants and making my jams and feeding wild birds and my god i feel content and happy as hell. i think it's ok if you're just another star in the fabric of the night sky or just a happy little bush in the bob ross painting. you don't need to be big and important in the grand scheme of things to be gorgeous and lovely and to be worth something. honestly, we're all just little critters in a big sparkling void and i think that's wonderful.
fall in love with small, beautiful things– with sunrises on foggy mornings, warm drinks on cold days, hot soup for a sore throat, cat and dog sightings, long hugs, your favorite songs playing over public speakers, days marked as special on the calendar, compliments from strangers, getting a new shirt you look good in, with your own laughter
“what if kids identify with something and it ends up just being a phase-?” good. stop teaching and expecting kids (and adults honestly) to formulate permanent traits and ideas of themselves. everything in life is a phase. that doesn’t make it any less legitimate while you experience it. let people explore themselves and know it’s okay if what you think about yourself changes.
someday, life will feel like more than just surviving the day
Also you can go so many days in a row where you are thriving and living and prospering and *still* have some days where you barely scrape by. Where a trigger or a situation sends you to spiral but that’s okay. Then you thrive again.
it’s okay if trauma has made you angry. your subconscious reaction is to protect yourself, and sometimes this is how it’s expressed: it doesn’t make you a bad person
if it can’t get better yet, i hope it at least gets easier
It's okay to 'grieve' things that aren't just death. I've allowed myself to grieve a friendship ending, a situationship, losing something important to me, etc. It's okay to give yourself time to process the loss of something. Grief looks different for everyone, try to find a way that works for you to help make it easier for you.
It’s okay to take time to grieve for the person you think you could’ve been without the trauma. It’s okay to grieve for the pieces of you that you feel you lost.
While your worth is not diminished or anything like that, sometimes the feelings are heavy and realizations hit us about how things could have been different. And it’s okay to feel that. It’s okay to grieve for the things you think could have been.
Rest is essential. If you don’t schedule rest, your body will schedule it for you. Take time to rest and allow yourself to enjoy it.
“i need to organize my bedroom so my mom won’t complain to me” -> “i deserve a clean and tidy bedroom”
“i hate my body so i need to work on it” -> “i deserve a healthy body that i like”
“i need to study so i won’t be a failure in life” -> “knowledge is power and i deserve to be successful”
“i did something wrong and i hate myself because of this” -> “this is my first time living, i’m allowed to make mistakes and grow from them”
love and compassion >>> hate and fear
and remember: mindset is the key.
