In the way that doing hard things for the betterment of future you is Self Care, the inverse is also true... doing easy indulgent things too often can be Self Harm. Like not to sound like a puritan over here, but you SHOULD find ways to save money when you can, even if it means denying yourself a non-necessary treat sometimes. Or work to save those treats to be actual, rare treats. Constantly eating & spending your money on fatty, processed foods is not good for you or your future. Don't let the consumerism win lol

#this is targeted at me too lol #i spend sooooo much fucking money on non-necessary food #and it's not good for my body or my future financial goals. bc that's the world we live in #and even though i would love to constantly be able to do those things....... i dont have the means to #live within your means #anyway. im learning n growing and still a young adult but its something ive been trying to actually enforce with myself bc ive developed #some bad habits in college #treats are for when i am actually getting what i need to done. as rewards. OR when i am actually fr particularly suffering such as when I #was super sick #but they can also be like. the cheese i was craving all week.#that cheese doesnt need to be part of my grocery order it can be a treat for later #bc otherwise my treat for later would be another thing that costs $12 and repeat ad nauseum. its ok to save money lol
