#painful reminder

[howifeltabouthim]

In any case, the better the sleep, the worse the morning. If I slept soundly, in the morning came the job of reminding myself . . . You are all alone.

"life doesnt get better, you just get stronger" does NOT include ages 11-17. life does in fact just get better from there. those years are dogshit. like, you do get stronger but its mostly just a factor of not being 11-17 anymore. positive thinking helps but it doesnt fix whatevers going on at 15, you have to brute force through that one raw

btw even if your pain is “your fault” that doesn’t mean you deserve it.

i walked my dog yesterday knowing it would hurt today and it does hurt!! a lot!! but that doesn’t mean i deserve to be in pain like i am.

sometimes we know shit is gonna hurt us and it does and it doesn’t mean we’re stupid or deserving of that hurt. the same is true if we don’t realize it at the time, but realize later that the pain we’re in is in some way “caused” by our actions. none of us deserve to be in pain, no matter what.

please try to cut yourself a bit of slack about this stuff. let yourself rest. take the painkillers. treat yourself gently. i promise you deserve it.

I think reaching out would remind me too much of stuff I don't like about myself.

Oh, but what happens when Dipper and Mabel are finally 17? What happens when the older twins look at them and it finally hits how young Stan was? What happens when Ford looks at them and sees them as kids and not almost adults? What happens when they finally have to confront the fact that they were just like that? That their faces were still round and soft and had acne and were so so much younger than any of them remember? What then?

Reminder at all, someone with a disability/chronic illness might be capable of completely different levels of activity from day to day. You can’t hold yourself or others to the best version of the physical self every single day. That goes for able bodied people too! Energy levels fluctuate, and for people with a disability/chronic illness that difference will be even more extreme.

Be patient. Be gentle with yourself and others.

Just because the other day you did a workout, went grocery shopping, and/or washed your hair, it doesn’t mean you’re less valuable today while you’re stuck in bed.

Be kind to yourself.

SNFU - Painful Reminder

[the-bar-sinister]

Self-reminders today:

Resting is an important part of creating and doing.

There is more to resting than just sleeping.

Resting means letting yourself be idle of body and idle of mind.

Resting replenishes mental and physical strengths.

There is nothing virtuous about resisting rest.

There is nothing virtuous about working without rest.

Idleness and rest are not wrong or lazy.

Allowing yourself to rest enhances your creativity and allows you to do better work.

There is nothing about resting that should make you feel guilty.

You need rest.
