Friendly reminders;

-Mental illness isn’t an excuse for abusing people, nor is it a “get out of jail free” card in terms of abusive actions.

-If you’re an abusive asshole you’re an abusive asshole, mental illness or no.

-Forgive yourself if you were driven crazy by an abusive mentally ill partner.

-It’s ok to leave relationships with an abusive mentally ill person in order to save yourself - no matter how they try to spin the story or guilty you.

-It takes time to heal after long term abuse. It’s ok to be angry - it’s ok to not forgive them.

ways to start feeling again

sit in the sun without anything to do, feel the heat of the rays hit your skin, realize that this sunlight has travelled a very long way to reach you

walk around barefoot and try to feel as much of the ground under your feet as you can, notice every rock and blade of grass

sit quietly for a while and notice the touch of breath in your nostrils, feel how the air gets cooler as you inhale and warmer as you exhale

drive around aimlessly and blast some of your favorite songs, scream/sing along to them and feel the vibrations of your favorite lyrics as they change the air in your throat and around you, feel that the music is healing you from the inside out

stay away from alcohol or drugs for a few days, try to be as aware and present as you can in every moment, stop trying to numb or dull your senses

eat a few meals without any distractions, notice every bite and taste every flavor that covers your tongue, be grateful for it all

look up at the stars and the moon, understand how small we all are and how immense the universe is, realize what a miracle everything is, let your heart swell with amazement and admiration for life itself

It’s like when someone makes your stomach feel all tight, but floaty at the same time, you know? And your cheeks hurt from smiling. And you smile so much that people think something’s wrong with you.

NASA created retro travel posters for different locations in our solar system in hopes of inspiring young people to imagine a future where common space travel is a possibility.
