self care is so damn difficult when you… don’t… care… about your own self

side effects of being numb due to mental illness:

not crying for weeks and weeks on end until one day, you’re breaking down over something that isn’t actually worth getting upset about

not being able to tell if your feelings for people are platonic or romantic or if you’re just lonely

instead of caring too much, you don’t care at all about anything

not being able to process anything going on in your life and when you try, your brain stalls out

losing your train of thought every five seconds, so when you try to have a conversation, you have to pause and remember what you were trying to say

word vomiting

mind “static”

Friendly reminder that you don’t have to wait until the weekends to live and enjoy your life. Go to your favorite coffee shop after school, call your friend, bake cookies on a Wednesday afternoon, dance around in your underwear. Your life is yours to live and you shouldn’t put it on hold because of work or school.

Glowy skin, vintage lingerie, cherry lips and curly hair is such a look

i’m so emotionally damaged that i cry when people show me that they actually care about me lmao

I’m letting go. What is meant for me will be mine in the right timing if I continue to do my part. What is truly mine will still be mine even when I stop grasping it too tight. My focus is to stay grounded despite external influences and factors that are out of my control.

“I like you, but I just don’t want a relationship right now”

Ladies, run for the hills. Indecision is a decision. If someone likes you, they’ll move mountains and cross seas to be with you, it’s as simple as that. If you have to question their affection constantly, pick up and go. No amount of empty words and long nights can make up for the fact that they don’t respect or like you enough to commit to you. The very fact that they’re taking advantage of relationship privileges says everything about the respect they have for you, and eventually the respect you have for yourself will wither, too. Sit back and look at your situation through a lense; an outsider. You’d scream at the girl on the other side to let go. You will find someone that wants these things with you, it just isn’t right now. Never compromise yourself at the expense of some boy who decided you weren’t enough, because you are, and someone else will find that in you. Once you realize the goddess you are and what you have to offer, you’ll never settle again.
