Road to recovery

[riseabovedefeat]

In case you needed to hear this today:

You are not alone.

You are strong.

You are beautiful.

You are worthwhile.

You deserve good things.

You matter.

You are important.

I care.

Both gender and sexuality are a spectrum.  There are no fixed boundaries except personal feelings and experiences.  When someone tells you how they identify respect that.  Honor that.  And never judge them.

This list is not all inclusive, there may be genders and sexualities that I don’t know about, that doesn’t mean they don’t exist, but I wanted to start a list to show how expansive the gender and sexuality human experience is.

Gender

Agender

Non-Binary

Genderfluid

Genderqueer

Transgender

Cisgender

Demigender

Sexuality

Lesbian

Gay

Bisexual

Pansexual

Queer

Asexual

Aromantic

Demisexual

Again this list is just what I know, not an all inclusive list of every possible identity.  If someone comes out to you fucking respect their identity.

For instance I am a Non-Binary Lesbian

Covid post

So this past week I lost a cousin to Covid-19. He died Wednesday morning (September 8th 2021).  He was unvaccinated.  This is a plea to everyone and anyone who is eligible to be vaccinated, please get the vaccination.  It saves lives.  My cousin would still be alive if he had his shot.  

[riseabovedefeat]

PSA:  Get the COVID-19 vaccination.  Just fucking get it.  You want life to return back to normal?  Get the shot.  Too many people have lost their lives to this illness.  Too many families forever changed.  If you are eligible to get the shot get it.  If you won’t do it to help others, do it to save your own life.  Covid is not something to be trifled with.  Take it seriously.  I just lost my cousin to Covid-19.

I just created a mental health support instagram:  relatable_mental_health

If you have instagram it is www.instagram.com/relatable_mental_health

I am much more active on my multiple instagrams then on here.

I want to recover because all my life i treated my body so bad, i need years from now on to love myself, i want to learn how to be comfortable with myself because if a flower doesn't bloom you fix the environment in which it grows not the flower, i am ready to bloom again:)

:)

[roadtorecoverysuggestions]

I want to recover for those pure moments of happiness when you realise you may have a lot of bad days, but those moments are worth it trying.

:)

[roadtorecoverysuggestions]

I want to recover because i deserve to experience beautiful things the future has to offer, i want to love and be loved and live like that.

Anxiety is

Always second guessing yourself

Anxiety is

Staying up at night not able to sleep because your mind won’t shut up and you keep thinking about every little detail that happened that day

Anxiety is

Thinking about the worst possible outcome and expecting it to happen

Anxiety is

Goosebumps filling your skin and your hair standing on end

Anxiety is

Your heart racing

Anxiety is

Feeling fear for no reason

Anxiety is

Terrifying

Anxiety is

Shutting down

Anxiety is

Being unable to move

Anxiety is

Overpowering

Anxiety is

Thoughts racing a million miles per second

Anxiety is that voice in your head

Anxiety is

A serious mental health issue

Anxiety is

Something to talk about so that those struggling with it realize that needing help does not mean they are weak.

[riseabovedefeat]

Depression is

A lack of motivation to do what you love

Depression is

Withdrawing from those around you

Depression is

A surge of emotions with no discernible reason

Depression is

A change in sleeping patterns, whether you start sleeping a ton or not at all

Depression is

Feeling like you are being weighed down and struggling just to do anything through out the day

Depression is

Overpowering

Depression is

All consuming

Depression is

A serious mental health issue

Depression is

Something that needs to be talked about so that those struggling with it know that reaching out for help is not weak

I want to recover so I don't become another statistic or another sad headline that everyone will forget in a month. I want to recover so I can be a success story that people will tell for generations.
