are you ok?

Me: no, but it's ok

[transparentunicorn]

that kind of hurt where you can’t even cry

Wow, this hits home. I realised today how much internalised homophobia still affects me.

It’s ridiculous how true this is.

Shoutout to those who struggle to accept their own sexuality and/or gender.

Shoutout to those who force themselves into hyper masculinity or femininity to be safe and feel accepted.

Shoutout to those who laugh along with jokes and slurs that inherently hurt and degrade them.

Shoutout to those who force themselves to look a certain way to feel accepted and attractive.

Shoutout to those who force themselves to be someone they are not.

Shoutout to those who even after accepting themselves, still struggle with expressing themselves.

One day you will be able to love yourself for who you are. You are not a bad person, you are not wrong or less desirable. You are beautiful the way you are. There are other people who will see and love you for who you are.

I think one part of coming out that we need to talk about more is where you’ve come out to a person, they’ve accepted you, and everything should be fine but it’s not. Because it’s a Thing now. Doesn’t matter how accepting they are, it’s awkward because it’s like this new information about you and it feels, rightly or wrongly, like they have to sort of reprocess who you are. Like there’s been a shift in your relationship.

And you start thinking about it all the time, and everything you do is calculated as to how it might be interpreted differently with this new information. Like oh I can’t have that haircut, I’ll seem like a stereotype. I can’t complain about a man, I’ll seem like a man-hating lesbian. I can’t talk about my sexuality or gender too much, I’ll seem like that’s all I am. Am I talking about girls too much? She’s talking about boys but I can’t talk about girls. Shit I mentioned the Thing, I need to change the subject! And idk it’s very frustrating and the sucky thing is only time will make it not a Thing anymore.

“Depression is the constant feeling of being numb. Being numb to emotions, being numb to life. You wake up in the morning just to go back to bed again”

Do you truly fear commitment or is it the idea of your commitment failing you that hinders you?

Crossing the finish line after running my first 5km race. 7 weeks ago I started couch to 5km and struggled with the 1 minute run intervals, now I can run a full 5km. So proud of how far I've come in such a short time and never thought I'd say I love running! #c25k #couchto5k #running #runner #colourrun #colourmefunrun #happy

Before and after the colour run 😂 Had a great time and ran the full 5km course in 35mins! So proud of myself, took 7 weeks to go from struggling to run for a few mins to running a full 5km!! #colourmefunrun #colourrun #colourrungoulburn #goulburn #running #runner #5km #smashedit

5 weeks ago I started the couch to 5km program. I was unfit and hated running. I've spent the past 5 weeks dreading today's workout, because unlike the workouts leading up to it, which were run/walk intervals, today was 20mins running, no walking. But I just smashed it! Not only am I happy and healthy, I've discovered I love running! Only a few weeks left until I graduate as a 5km runner! #happy #healthy #fitness #c25k #couchto5k #running #runner

Umm is this from a snake?!? Because if it is animals are ruining my outdoor exercise routine, one route is snakey, the other I got attacked by crows.... 😭 #snake #waggawagga #csu #run
