notes to self: things I've recently learned edition

Being emotionally healthy does not mean that you will not feel negative emotions. It means that when you do feel negative emotions like anger and sadness and shame and dejection, you will not let it trigger self-destructive behaviour. You will observe and understand what you are feeling and you will allow yourself to feel it and pass.

Let people be who they are and give yourself time to know who they are. Then you get to decide whether you want them in your life or not. You shouldn't want so badly to fit someone into your life that you ask them to change or compromise on your end.

Do not wear a dress when you go to the beach because then when you sit on the sand it goes everywhere. EVERYWHERE.

You do not care so much for anything really. If it's there, great, you will enjoy and appreciate. And if it's not, that's fine too, you will go on with your life. Example: You've only had mangoes thrice this whole summer and it doesn't even matter. You always thought you couldn't go a summer without devouring 10000 mangoes. But here you are.

Be the healthy person. Do the thing you want to do and say the thing you want to say instead of waiting the other person to do it. Express what you feel. Ask for what you need. Even if they do not reciprocate, at least you did the healthy thing - you communicated. There is beauty in being confident and having clarity on what you want and who you are.

Humans always overestimate the things they can do and the way they can change in one year and underestimate the changes that can shape their life in 10 years. Don't do that. Stop pressuring yourself to do everything this calendar year and really capitalise on the power of time and have a long term vision and plan for what you want and who you want to be.

Love, Loss, and Longing: The Universal Language of Billie Eilish

In the vast expanse of human emotion, there exist experiences so profoundly relatable, they transcend linguistic and cultural boundaries. Love, loss, and longing are among these universal sentiments, echoing through the chambers of every heart. Billie Eilish, the 22-year-old musical phenomenon, has tapped into this collective emotional reservoir, crafting a discography that not only resonates with her generation but also speaks to the fundamental human condition. Her Tiny Desk performance, a masterclass in emotional vulnerability, distills the essence of love, loss, and longing, reaffirming the transformative power of music as a universal language.

Eilish’s music is a poignant exploration of the human experience, where love is inextricably linked with the terror of vulnerability. This duality is hauntingly captured in her stripped-down rendition of “The Greatest,” a melancholic reflection on the bittersweet nature of love and regret. The song’s emotional intensity, underscored by Eilish’s almost-breaking falsetto, creates a sense of shared vulnerability, inviting listeners to confront their own experiences of love and heartache.

The longing that permeates Eilish’s music is equally universal, a yearning that transcends the specifics of individual experience to touch the heart of what it means to be human. In “Birds of a Feather,” the lyrics “I don’t know what I’m crying for, I don’t think I could love you more” encapsulate the paradoxical nature of love and loss, a sentiment that resonates deeply with anyone who has ever loved and lost. This song, like many in Eilish’s oeuvre, serves as a testament to the enduring power of love, even in the face of adversity.

The universality of Eilish’s music lies in its ability to capture the complexity of human emotion, acknowledging the messy, often contradictory nature of love, loss, and longing. Her Tiny Desk performance, with its carefully curated set list, flows seamlessly from the haunting reflections of “The Greatest” to the poignant exploration of vulnerability in “I love you,” culminating in the universal yearning of “Birds of a Feather.” Each song, a thread in the intricate tapestry of human experience, contributes to a larger narrative that is at once deeply personal and profoundly relatable.

Billie Eilish’s music, as exemplified by her Tiny Desk performance, reaffirms the role of art as a universal language, capable of transcending boundaries to speak directly to the human heart. In exploring the themes of love, loss, and longing, Eilish reminds us that, despite our differences, we are united in our shared emotional experiences. Her music, a beacon of vulnerability and empathy, illuminates the darkest corners of the human condition, offering a profound sense of connection and understanding to all who listen.

Hi friends, with uni starting up again I've been really motivated and grateful, but I am going through a lot mentally and emotionally with family stuff (more than usual lol) so I was considering using the uni counselling service. The qualm I have is that I only get access to four sessions for free, and then can have only six more for the year (billed). I'd rather not start at all than be cut off from sessions before I can reap the benefits...

That's why I wanted to ask anyone who has used university- or college-based counselling services what your experience of it was. you can just answer in the poll, but i'd also really appreciate if you could tell me more about it in my inbox if you're open to it

Mercury turns direct suggests a moment of clarity, a moment of insight where over the last 3 weeks or so, we might be thinking something a certain way and now we are seeing things differently.

We are realising how things actually are. We are able to accept and find that truth now.

In this time communicate and understand clearly.

There is a perception of pessimism and inability of seeing light

Breathe. Be diligent with your thoughts and mind.

Hone yourself to your belief and faith in the dark. Seek help when you need it.

Be patient with self and you will find equilibrium.

****************************************************

My note for you. If no one has told you lately, the universe loves you. You are worthy of love. If you don’t know it yet, didn’t this year, with its triumphs and trials, woven a tapestry of our lives together?

Thank you for reading my posts.

At the New Year's dawn, let's carry that strength into the new year ahead of us. 🔥 Let's continue to build ourselves, nurturing dreams, conquering challenges, and becoming the person we envision of being.

To all you here, may the year ahead be a canvas painted with vibrant hues of joy, growth, and self-discovery.

May we continue to find solace and inspiration 🦋

Healing is important, but not because you aren’t enough and you need to become a “perfect” version of yourself to deserve good things in your life. You are enough as you are now and healing is important because you deserve to be able to feel at peace.

Jesus’ mental acuity and emotional wellbeing

The Jesus presented in the Gospels reflects an exemplary personal and moral character, one that transcends the frail imperfect human moral condition... In sharp contrast to known deceivers, Jesus showed no signs of being motivated by wealth, fame, power, or pleasure... Frankly for those who have examined the life of Jesus, accepting him as the divine Messiah is much easier than concluding that he was a moral and spiritual fraud.

Of all men, Jesus seems to have a secure grip on reality. He consistently exhibited profound mental and emotional stability. In every crisis that he confronted-whether being mocked and interrogated by his enemies or undergoing the horrific torture of crucifixion-Jesus’ mind reflected an amazing clarity, sobriety, and underlying emotional stability.

Jesus transcends all categories concerning human mental health, emotional stability, and moral virtue. A powerful reason for concluding that Jesus was indeed God incarnate is that he was fundamentally different from every other human being that ever lived. Even Socrates, the Buddha, and Confucius pale in comparison to him. In fact, standards of human goodness are measured according to his life and character.

One of the greatest relationship advice I have received:

"Accept people as they, not as you want them to be."

If a person isn't prioritizing their own mental well being, physical well being or financial well being, then it means simply that. Don't waste your energy and time wishing something for someone when they cannot see or be that for themselves.

In most cases, they won't change just because you offered your help.

IF THEY WANTED TO CHANGE, THEY WOULD BE CHANGED BY NOW.

This applies to all relations: friends, family, acquaintances, strangers, people you wanna date, and so on.

Understanding Trauma and Exploring Strategies for Healing

Shaina Tranquilino

October 24, 2023

Trauma is a powerful, life-altering experience that can leave lasting emotional, psychological, and even physical scars. It can be caused by various events such as accidents, abuse, violence, natural disasters, or the loss of a loved one. While each person's experience with trauma is unique, it often leads to feelings of fear, helplessness, and disrupted daily functioning. However, there is hope for healing and growth. In this blog post, we will delve into what trauma is and explore strategies to navigate through its aftermath.

Defining Trauma: Trauma refers to an event or series of events that overwhelm an individual's ability to cope effectively. It disrupts their sense of safety and security. Such experiences trigger intense emotions and physiological responses that may persist long after the traumatic event has occurred. Common symptoms include intrusive thoughts, nightmares, flashbacks, hypervigilance, anxiety disorders, depression, mood swings, and difficulty trusting others.

Recognizing the Impact: It's crucial to acknowledge that everyone processes trauma differently; what may be traumatic for one person might not have the same effect on another. Therefore, it's essential to validate personal experiences and offer support without judgment or comparison. Understanding the impact of trauma helps individuals develop empathy towards themselves and others who have gone through similar challenges.

Strategies for Healing:

Seek Professional Help: Trauma recovery often requires professional assistance from therapists specializing in trauma-focused therapy techniques like Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), or Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). These therapeutic approaches empower individuals to process their trauma safely while developing coping mechanisms.

Practice Self-Care: Engaging in self-care activities can promote healing by nurturing your mind, body, and spirit. This includes getting adequate restorative sleep, maintaining a balanced diet rich in essential nutrients, exercising regularly, and engaging in activities that bring joy and relaxation. Self-care also encompasses setting healthy boundaries, practicing mindfulness or meditation, and seeking support from loved ones.

Connect with Support Networks: Sharing your experiences with trusted friends, family members, or support groups can reduce feelings of isolation and provide a sense of belonging. Surrounding yourself with empathetic individuals who validate your emotions helps rebuild trust and foster a supportive environment for healing.

Cultivate Resilience: Building resilience is an integral part of trauma recovery. Engaging in activities such as journaling, art therapy, or participating in support groups can enhance self-awareness and personal growth. Seeking out positive role models who have overcome similar traumas can inspire hope and motivate you to move forward.

Practice Mindfulness Techniques: Incorporating mindfulness techniques into your daily routine can help manage stress levels and regulate emotional responses triggered by traumatic memories. Breathing exercises, grounding techniques, yoga, or meditation can promote relaxation, self-reflection, and emotional stability.

Trauma is a harrowing experience that disrupts lives but navigating through it is possible with proper understanding and support. Healing from trauma requires patience, self-compassion, professional guidance, and the implementation of various coping strategies tailored to individual needs. Remember that everyone's journey is unique; there is no predefined timeline for healing from trauma. By embracing these strategies and cultivating resilience within ourselves, we can embark on a path towards healing, growth, and reclaiming our lives.

I've encountered a few posts that feel like they say "you're the scum of the earth if you don't reblog this". i don't really know what to do because one of them said that people who don't interact with the blog are going to be blocked.

the only thing is that it makes me feel really stressed out. I know I'm not a horrible person, but those kinds of posts make me question that, and it's making me miserable.

do you have any advice?

First of, what the actual F̴̢͔̬͈͇͍̤̘͕̳̻̥̪̱̫̦̝̀̂͗͂̌̈́̍͒̈́̇̈́͊̓̋̈͆̈́́̚͘̕Ụ̵̧̢̧̨̨̣̟̰̮͎̗̲̘̝̰̲̱̮͕̘̞͈̜̝͗̆́̐̅̉̓̋̌͌̐̆̓̂̎̉́̈́͑͆̆̕͘̕͜͝C̵̨̨̨͚͚̫̲̞̬̖̰͚͖̩̫͍̼̤̫̱͇͍̳̹̍́̓̈́͗̈́̉̅̚̕��̡̨̫̳̤͈̻̞̭̠̦̲̥͎̞͇̲̙̝̼͚̙͜K̶͈͖̳̰̭̝͕̖̮̳̫͍̗̠̺̬̯̻̳̀̀̀̀̊̔͒͂́̃͒́̀͑̎͛̒̄̅̈́̒̓͛̍̄̈́̅̀̿́͛̍͌͂͒́̚̕̚͝͝͝ is wrong with people like that.

They are definitely NOT worthy of your support.

(Sorry, got a little mad over there)

A reblog does not define if a person is ''horrible'' or not, what defines them is how a person acts and treats others. So the only horrible person here is the one who finds amusement in treating their followers like that and going to the point of BLOCKING them due to a simple reblog or interaction. Your emotional well being is not worth those poeple. At all.

My advice: unfollow them if you happen to be following them, otherwise just simply ignore their threats and go on with your life. If they actually end up blocking you, then it's their loss. Even if they might post stuff you may be interested in, they are not worthy of your time if they are going to be treating you (and other people as well) like that.

No one in social media should be forced to follow or support certain content if they don't feel like doing so. You are free to do whatever you want to do with your account as far as you don't do things that are objectively wrong. You have done nothing bad in this situation and don't deserve to be called ''scum'' or whatever, because you aren't. Just UNO reverse that stuff and leave.

In situations like this, prioritize yourself. Think why you are here in Tumblr. Are you here to have a good or bad time? I honestly believe it's the first option, right? So get rid of the toxicity that gives you the extra stress you don't really need in your life. Don't question your morality here. You ARE NOT a bad person for not reblogging a post whatsoever.

So now just stand up straight, strong, and worry no more! >:3

'Cause you deserve to enjoy your time here as much as anyone else <333

(However, if you need to get things out of your chest, or believe I could help you furthermore, you can DM me if you feel like doing so ^^, but I do hope that this post has been of help.)

Take care!♡
