In my era of giving up on people. No more seeing the best in them, no more excusing their behavior. I accept you as you are and reject you.

Stop waiting for someone else to give you the love you haven’t even given yourself.

“My life is made up of ‘I’m sorry’. I feel like I have to apologize to people, to things, to life itself. It’s like, ‘I’m sorry to be here’. I don’t want to disturb anyone.”

— Yohji Yamamoto

Wild things I have learnt in therapy:

When a child cries, parents are supposed to comfort them, not punish them

Parents are, in fact, supposed to want to spend time with their children

Children too have a right to privacy, meaning parents are not allowed to read their diaries etc and then punish them for the thoughts they found about

Children are allowed to be upset and cry

Children don't have to earn the love and attention from their parents by performing various things

Children are not supposed to be scared of going home and/or their parents

Children are not supposed to be physically abused and even a little bit of hitting is actually physical abuse

Parents are not supposed to expect that children are mentally as mature as other adults

Children are not supposed to be told that they're an accident, a burden, or something the parents regret

Children are not supposed to be scared and ashamed of themselves or feel like failures because of their parents

I was not meant to be the parent to my own parents since I was 10.

It is okay to cry and feel sad when you're treated badly. It is valid.

I don't have to do everything on my own and aspire to be perfect. It is okay to depend on other people's help when its needed and it is okay to make mistakes.

I am not a burden to people that love me even if most days I feel like one. Sometimes it's okay to trust people.

Even on bad terms loyalty should never change.

I want a soft love that feels like when ur standing in the sunlight and u don’t want to leave and that gives u the sensation of lazily melting into what’s around u as u take it all in.
