Sometimes I'll take a little social media break and stop posting to my feed. Ive stepped away from twitter almost completely and found my time much better served creating, working and resting whenever I can. Normal service will resume shortly! We have little time left until Christmas, you can feel it in the air now 🎄 . . . #talkmh #socialmedia #moderation #lookafteryourself #createveryday https://www.instagram.com/p/BroK1w3Ftpe/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=awqnpzepjayb

INDIVIDUALITY: Fuck the rest PT 1 So all my life I’ve been a bit of an outsider. I have slowly throughout my 24 years, went from loathing all that made me different to celebrating it, briefly back to loathing it, and nowadays flickering between the two. The things that made up the entirety of ‘me’ have always been a little off centre. Never loud enough as a kid to stand out, never smart enough to impress teachers, never cool enough. We could write a book with the things we think we are not. But that little voice, that nagging feeling that says you’re a loser, a weirdo, no friends, no prospects, no potential – it is a liar. These days the things that made me hate myself when I was younger often garner a lot of positive attention. I was always precise as a kid, things had to be organised and that didn’t exactly make me look cool. I would have the cleanest pencil case, schoolbag, bedroom etc. I would literally organise my dvds and books alphabetically and play pretend that I owned my own shop selling them to invisible people. I was a loner. I knew what I stood for at a very young age, and for the most part I carried those ideas forward into my adult life. I’ll tell you why I’m writing this. Every few weeks or so I clear, clean and reorganise my makeup desk. Sounds pretty mundane right? Well I’m a fiend for boxes and neat ways to display stuff, so my makeup desk is always badass – at least my version of badass, that being a touch eclectic and odd yet never compromising on organisation. So I’ve been using a letter rack to display my eyeshadow palettes, have done for years but I guess no one really noticed before. I decided to get that bad boy mounted on the wall of my makeup desk – clearing more room on my desk and making me think HELLO BITCH WHY YOU NOT DO THIS BEFORE?! I was very pleased, its the little things you know? My MH is best when I am organised and my home is tidy. It is when my surrounds are free of clutter and mess that I can do what I love – write, upcycle, create. #blog #blogger #mental health #talkmh #honest #individual
