I’m so scared of ending up in an abusive relationship where someone who once was so kind to me slowly ends up manipulating my actions and resenting me.

In other news, I’ve been inducted into Alpha Lambda Delta honor society, have my own research project in neuroscience, been prescribed SSRIs for anti-anxiety (which have extremely helped with my nightmares, but I’ve lost a lot of weight because I don’t feel well sometimes), I’m going to Sweden next semester for study abroad, and I’m in the process of applying to an NIH scholarship program and Amgen summer scholars/other REUs (which I’m hoping to be competitive enough for). 

I haven’t been on tumblr in awhile, but I’ve spent a lot of my night looking through previous posts from my angstier high school days. I’m so thankful for everyone on this site when I was struggling with many things. I still have battles, but I’ve learned to cope with them in healthy ways. I’m going on about a year of counseling now and will be working on overcoming my specific phobias next fall. I still have a lot of family problems but there are some things I just can’t fix. I’m working on creating my own sane environment by moving out next year and staying on campus as much as possible

Things really do get better, chin up buttercup

I’m not going to lie, I almost didn’t end up going to college this year. I know my freshman year will have its challenges but the hardest part is leaving my parents. Not in the typical sense of every freshman, no, I’m prepared to live on my own and I’m not apprehensive about my classes; however, I don’t think my parents should live alone. My dad is in the process of most likely having his right leg amputated from the knee down and my mom isn’t even working. They’re both in Minnesota this week. Both have memory lapses. Neither of them can keep up with basic household chores and here I am abandoning them to pursue my own selfish education. If this were the early 20th century I would be expected to stay home and care for them, but I can’t.

After my first semester of college, I would like to add that my father did get his leg amputated. My mom said that it doesn’t feel that much different without me home because I never left my room when I was home anyway. I still see them struggle with daily things over holiday breaks. I just have to understand that they need to make adjustments too.

What a year can do

In this past year

-my niece passed away from cancer, my father had a foot amputated (which was a long process of manipulation and yelling), I broke up with my best friend and boyfriend who I truly loved because I give up on people and couldn’t motivate him anymore and couldn’t bring myself to tell him about my own mental problems, started working at a job with a terrible environment, have had increasing anxiety and depression where I didn’t get out of bed until evening, started drinking for temporary happiness

but also, this past year, 

-I have made the best and most supportive friends in my first year of college, almost have a 4.0, reaching out to kickstart my career in a pre-clinical research lab, started counseling for my anxiety, gotten closer to a few of my siblings, found inspiration and love in the little things, become so much more independent and less naive

I don’t wish away the next week in order to get ahead in 2017. A year takes one day at a time and I’m looking forward to making the most of every opportunity.

Hey, kids, friendly reminder that it’s okay if you don’t know what you’re doing in the “real world”!!! People make mistakes and it’s okay to ask for help. Don’t be so hard on yourself. You’re growing.

I already don't want to get out of bed

“I’m so glad I married you.”

“Yeah we made a good call on that one.”

real 💯

[mogifire]

why not both?

[onlinecounsellingcollege]

Don’t rush into any kind of relationship. Work on yourself. Feel yourself, experience yourself, and love yourself. Do this first and you will soon attract that special loving other.

I hope there are days when you fall in love with being alive.

I love it when people tell me about me because I have no idea who I am

[saltasaurus-rex-blog]

I love when people say “i really like that thing you do, you know when you (insert thing)” and you had no idea that is something you do. I also love it when people know more about you than you do. I get really excited.

Do you ever write a line that just makes you sit back for a second and go

that line is so good

if I was a famous writer hipsters would probably get that tattooed on their biceps, that line’s so good
