“stop bouncing your leg” “stop flapping your hands” “stop making those weird noises” “take your headphones off” “stop smelling that perfume” “stop breathing so hard” it’s this or i’ll fucking explode.

Reminder for those who need it:

It's okay to pick your battles. And just because you can, doesn't mean you have to.

Were you able to talk to the cashier and order your own food last week, but today you'd rather just write it down? That's okay. It doesn't make you an inconvenience. It's the same outcome either way and it's worth it if it saves you the anxiety.

Were stairs easy for you yesterday, but today your knees are bothering you? Go ahead and take the elevator. All that matters is you get where you need to. You're not being lazy. You're being efficient.

Promised yourself you'd start cooking meals but can't find the energy today? Eat that microwave meal. Food is food. The main thing is you get something in you. You're not letting yourself go. Eating is taking care of yourself.

There are no thresholds of struggling needed to justify accommodations or doing something a different way. If it makes things easier, then do it.

You're not lazy. You're not over-dramatic. You're not faking. You're not "chronically online." You didn't lose progress. You're not back at square one or giving up on yourself.

You're brave for doing what's best for you. You're strong for taking care of yourself. You're clever for finding ways that make life easier for you.

It's okay to pick your battles.

It's okay not to do something, even if you can.

It's okay if you are struggling.

You don't have to be "*insert disorder* enough."

You're doing great, and I'm so proud of you. <3

I took my meds today. I’ve been good and consistent w them. Why am I so fucking anxious and stressed out still.

(I know why. The world is falling apart and I feel like I can’t do anything while my life continues to March on)

Just having a stressy struggle day

Anybody else been having the weird experience of realizing that you will die eventually and you will never know if we make it out of climate disaster? If we actually do space travel? If the world falls apart?

You realize that. That you’ll never see the year 2424. That your existence is so insignificant and you will never know the ending.

That you will have an ending and you have no idea what’s happening after. To humanity/earth. But also to you and your tiny little consciousness.

That there’s a time where you’ll cease to exist.

And then you can feel your teeth and taste metal and have to actively not let yourself hyperventilate?

CAUSE IVE BEEN HAVING THOSE FUN MOMENTS ABOUT 3-5 TIMES A WEEK. AND I FEEL LIKE IM LOSING MY MIND.

[lanaknowsitried0]

Are you normal, or are you incapable of socializing and haven’t had a friend in years? 🫢

Give yourself permission to be happy.

this has been such a struggle for me. I’ll have awful days and long depressive episodes, and sometimes when ‘feeling good’ arrives out of the blue, I’m actually scared to let it happen. As though an hour of happiness invalidates my sorrow, or traps me within it; as though it means that I’ve been lying to myself and I never was sad in the first place. None of that is true. You can have a good afternoon, a good day, a good hour, without being afraid to feel it or to let it go. Earth wasn’t meant to live in one season; there’s sunshine and rain. Learn to listen to yourself in each one. Do not fear time. Give yourself permission to feel joy when it comes, and don’t ignore your sorrow.
