It’s going to be okay, even if your mental illness has interfered with work. 

It’s going to be okay, even if your mental illness has interfered with your creative endeavors.

It’s going to be okay, even if your mental illness has gotten in the way of daily life.

It won’t last forever, and you can always pick up where you left off as you heal.

It will take some time, but we will be okay.

“It’s okay to miss people even if you know you shouldn’t. Sometimes you miss someone not because you desire them to come back into your life, but rather you miss a time when you found comfort in the feeling that they were always going to be there .”

— something I learned after having to say goodbye too many times.

“I miss you but I shouldn’t. Because we’re told, not to miss people that have hurt us. We’re told to move on. But that must mean there’s something wrong with me. Because I miss you so much it hurts.”

“There is really no shortcut to forgetting someone, you just have to endure missing them everyday, until you don’t anymore.”

You did not see this year turning out this way, and the plans that seemed steady have fallen out of place, but even here, even now, you have not fallen from grace; this glorious unmerited favor that shows up everyday, reminding you: you are Loved…even while you feel this way. And it is okay to say, “this is hard.” It is okay if things are not the same. It is okay if there are feelings that are strong, but they are confusing and too hard to name. For more than you were made to sort through all of this, you were made to trust and let go. You were made to go through every stage it takes to learn, to heal, to grow. — Morgan Harper Nichols

“I think it’s important to realize you can miss something and not want it back.”

“I will never understand how people decide to get up and just leave. How do you go from telling someone their importance and meaning to you one week and avoiding them the next? Did you actually mean what you said, or were you just lying like everyone else?”

Abusers know what they’re doing is wrong. Why else would they go to such lengths to hide what they’re doing to you? Why else would they get so defensive when you question them or call them out for their abuse? Wouldn’t a truly ignorant, but good person listen when you told them that the way they’re treating you hurts, and try to fix it? Abusers have a firm grasp in reality; they just choose to stay in their own twisted delusions so they can abuse with no qualms.
