I truly belive that the Supernatural fandom is the most optimistic fandom (or the fandom in the most denial). I mean we know how it goes, in the first episode (or last season's finaly) something happens and all hell breaks lose (literally or figuativly) that the boys have to fight and 9 times out of 10 on of them winds up dead. We all know (it hasn't changed in the 11 years that the shows been running and it's not gonna change now) and yet during the hiatus you can still find hoping and praying that it'll be happier next season (even though we know better, we know it's all pain and sadness, but we still hope). What does that make us?

i’m so proud of myself, despite all the hardships and abuse and toxicity that was my childhood and teen years, i’m staying strong and i don’t want to die. last march i came upon the realization that i didn’t want to kill myself, or rather i just clung to a single thought “i deserve to live” and ever since then iv’e been getting better and better, it’s hard it’s so very hard, but i’m doing it and i’m only going to get better!

I am working towards reconditioning my emotional response to creativity problems.

Whenever I have a hard time figuring out part of a story, I have a habit of getting frustrated, and doubting my own abilities and creativity. I tend to think “I can’t do this!” and so I procrastinate to avoid further frustration. But then I still feel bad for not working on the project as much as I feel I should.

So instead of going through that self-defeating cycle, now whenever I meet difficult obstacles in a project, I tell myself “At least I did some work on it. That’s a little progress.”

I’m teaching myself that I can feel good about any effort made towards a goal, even if it doesn’t seem like I’m making any noticeable progress yet, it is still a step towards the end goal.

This is a healthier, more helpful outlook that leads to more effort and gradual progress.
