one of the toughest aspects of mental illness is how often your goals fall by the wayside because the only goal you can afford is survival.

I sat here staring at that last panel for a solid minute, reading then reading again. This is just something else.

self care is not a reward for being responsible or for working hard. you dont “deserve” or “not deserve” to be nice to yourself. you are an alive person and rather than thinking of self care as incentives or bonuses you can get by adhering to and succeeding at abled standards (at a detriment to your health), you can think of it as. making deposits of self esteem by caring for yourself, and allowing yourself nice things and feelings. 

you dont have to deplete yourself to EMPTY before filling yourself back up again!!! you can do nice things for yourself before you hit the bottom.

celebrate your personal victories because no one else understands what it took to accomplish them

As hard as it may be to believe, you have intrinsic worth independent of your achievements. You matter even when you’re incapable of doing anything.

just neurodivergent things: when you say something but less than 30 seconds later you cant tell if you actually said anything or if you just thought about saying it.

reminder that you don’t have to view your trauma as some sort of poetic justice or greater part of your development as a person. you dont deserve the bad things that happened to you. you don’t have to turn your struggles into some beautiful aftermath. sometimes things are just bad and no amount of twisting by society will make them beautiful.

Depression isn’t pretty. But having depression doesn’t make you ugly.

Anxiety is a burden. But having anxiety doesn’t make you a burden.

You aren’t your problems. You deserve respect and patience.

Abuse and neglect negate love. Care and affirmation, the opposite of abuse and humiliation, are the foundation of love. No one can rightfully claim to be loving when behaving abusively.
