It’s a 2am surprise: The Tortured Poets Department is a secret DOUBLE album. ✌️ I’d written so much tortured poetry in the past 2 years and wanted to share it all with you, so here’s the second installment of TTPD: The Anthology. 15 extra songs. And now the story isn’t mine anymore… it’s all yours. 🤍 https://taylor.lnk.to/ttpd-theanthology

I read this whenever I feel sad and hopeless about this journey. I'm not gonna lie, it's been tiring, and I sometimes feel like quitting because I'm starting to doubt if my turn will actually come. (I'm being pessimistic, I'm sorry.)

I try to remind myself that I found out about shifting for a reason...that soon enough, my turn will come.

Thank you, anon.

you will shift, inevitably. don’t worry about it. after reading a post off someone else’s blog, i’d like to remind you that shifting isn’t going anywhere— your dr friends, family, and adventures aren’t gonna magically vanish into thin air. they’re there, perpetually, in another reality. they exist forever. shifting as well. it won’t disappear, so it’s okay for you to relax every now and then and take your time.

you will shift; it’s inevitable. i’m telling you, it will happen when you least expect it. i’ve been watching your blog for a month or two now and i really hope nothing but the best for you. each failure is a step towards success.

i know you can do it!

Oh my. This... This was just too lovely to read. Seriously, this is just so lovely. Thank you so much for this! I really, really needed to hear this. Most of the time I go here, I'm honestly just trying to keep myself motivated, trying to keep an optimistic view because I'm not gonna lie, I've been having some silly thoughts, like, what if all of this is just too good to be true? I've been questioning if this is something I'm really meant to do or if I'm just wasting my time. I've been crying while thinking if I'll ever get to live the life that I want, with the people I want to be with, because there are times that I'd honestly think that the only thing I can actually do is to simply think of them, and not be with them. But in the end, I always just try my best to think of why I started shifting from the very beginning. And then try to get back up again.

I am genuinely thankful for this! Thank you for giving me this wonderful reminder that shifting, and everything I want and everyone who I wish to be with will always be there... And that being able to shift is inevitable. I'm literally having the chills, feeling somehow emo while reading this.

THANK YOU SO, SO MUCH. YOU HAVE NO IDEA, I LITERALLY NEEDED THIS. THANK YOU. AGAIN AND AGAIN, THANK YOU.

Please. 🥲

once you find out about shifting, it’s set in stone. you’re going to shift no matter what and it’s going to be great.

[shifting-with-august]

[shifting-with-august]

Here I am again with the sad girl posts for my s/o. SORRY 😭😭😭

I miss you so much it hurts. I feel so tired.

[shifting-with-august]

I wanna make my girl happy, I want to go on adventures and save the world with my friends while making sure they're also safe from tragic circumstances, unlike in this reality.

I wanna love and be loved.

This post. 🙁🙁🙁

Indeed, it's just so painful.

I often feel like maybe shifting isn’t meant for me, but why isn’t it meant for me? Why do I struggle so much? I don’t understand, why did I find shifting, only for it to hurt me so much? Did I believe in it because I genuinely believe, or because I’m desperate to leave a cursed plane of existence. I’m not sad and jealous anymore, I’m just angry. Angry at the universe for giving this to me but never actually letting me have it, angry at myself at failing constantly, for being so gullible, for not trying hard enough, for not spending days or weeks working to get what I want. But I’m just so tired. I’ve worked so hard for so long, to gain nothing, gaining sleepless nights due to trying to shift, gaining derealization from constantly thinking about shifting and how nothing really matters if I can just leave it in an instant.

I’m not quitting because I don’t have the strength to live in this reality, but I don’t think I can keep trying. I just want to be free, to be happy, to be loved.

I don’t know why shifting was given to me, but whoever gave it to me is a sick sociopath who loves to see me in pain

[shifting-with-august]

I don't want to go through something like this.

[shifting-with-august]

most of my successful/almost close attempts to shift have been through the lucid dream method, and I am so soooo annoyed because I literally haven't been dreaming lately. I fall asleep and there's literally nothing. 🙃 Might try some other methods.

[shifting-with-august]

your soul

your soul knows it all.

your soul knows the energy you bring in; good or bad.

your soul knows the energy you release; the energy that you need to release.

your soul knows how long you have been in the universe; past lives all the way to now.

your soul knows alternate versions of you, the things you have done differently; the parts of your past you regret and love — the ones nobody else understands.

im saying this because your soul also knows you found shifting for a reason — everything happens for a reason. and if it comes in for a reason, it will reward you. all the good, the bad, the ugly, your soul — you can manipulate it into your own thing.

be your own person, and it will work. you do your own thing, and it will work out.

now just go ahead, stop setting deadlines, don’t limit yourself to the minimal expectations, just let everything happen :) because it FUCKING WILL

the love you want, the happiness you want, the world you want is yours. just let it come to you. and i say this to you on my birthday, so i am sending positivity and luck to everyone who may read this.

love u all!! :) sorry i haven’t been that active. will try to b more <3

spread positivity, love, and hope.

from the beings of abyss, aphrodite, and archangel gabriel <3

Last week, I was simply browsing through twitter (or x, whatever) during my free time and I couldn't help but get pissed.

I don't even browse there too much, and the only time I do, you're telling me I'd see a post with a hundred thousand likes insinuating that shifting isn't real and people were lying about it? 😐 Just demotivating. But well, we just gotta shrug it off, right? We, shifters, know what we're doing and experiencing.

as soon as i figure out how to not fall asleep during an awake method it’s over for everyone

Whats your fave dr to shift to?

Honestly... I literally only have one active DR, which is my MCU DR. So it's my favorite one! 🤣😭 It's my first ever DR, and...still is (because nothing else follows) I do have a waiting room though.

I also thought of a DR for Wednesday and Star Wars but never really bothered making a script.

I'm way too attached to my family and s/o in the MCU.
