#sometimes I use words like 'disheartening' and I can't remember if the translation I have in mind is for the actual word or something else

hey ho I just noticed that amongst many of your posts you have some pretty nasty things to say about yourself! As a concerned follower I am here to tell you that does you no good whatsoever, and have expierenced where it can lead you to! (Even when said in jest)
As an outside observer I have determined that exactly 0 of your negative statements are true, so don't believe the lies you tell yourself! Change statements like "my art sucks" to "my art is pretty neat!" (Because it is) "....just kill me" to ".... just give me shrimp" (or fav food/object) "I feel awful and lonely" to " I see the sun rise and its beautiful, I feel nice." And "I have more friends than i realise" ( notice something beautiful or do things you like and appreciate them, you'll start to feel better I promise!
Take a moment to slow down and just breathe and observe all the good things around you (go outside if you have to)
Heres a book that talks about changing your inner monologue for the better, "What to say when you talk to yourself" by Shad Helmstetter its definitely worth a read
I love you and sending a crushing bear hug to you! π«π«πππ
Unfortunately yes I have many bad things to say about myself (I am my biggest hater).
I've been around some pretty toxic people in the past (and present, most of them are my relatives, yikes) and I guess it's just easier to say negative things about me rather than hear them say things (behind my back).
I try to do better but when you don't fit into society the way other people do, it's kinda disheartening, makes me wanna give up.
Sometimes I wish I was like everyone else honestly, or have some confidence.
I'll definitely try to check out that book, thanks for the recommendation :)
Many hugs to you too anon π«π«
#I'll say my art is pretty neat when that becomes true#honestly I don't always fit society's 'geed person' archetype so I guess that has settled deep in my bones#I have very low empathy(?) I rarely feel 'bad' for other people. sure I don't want anything bad to happen but I don't start crying when I#hear that someone I don't know died. or someone I know. I don't really cry actually. once or twice per 3 months#I have difficulties with expressing my emotions (and I feel like I don't feel fully. not like other people do)#I'm trying to take moments to appreciate life(?) but even life doesn't always feel real. like a chore you have to power through. most days#surprisingly I go outside almost every day for around an hour to walk. the city I live now has a harbor and I love the sea#there are too many people there tho... I don't like people. they're loud and don't pay attention to their surroundings#the times I've been almost ran over by bikes or cars is surreal#not art#text#ask#anonymous#I didn't mean to make you concerned about me. don't be. there really isn't anything you can do#one of my other negative traits is that I'm extremely stubborn. almost nothing can change my opinion about something#I try to do better but that unfortunately isn't always enough#society has failed me on many levels and it's hard to see the 'bright side' when a literal war is happening#and people you know will hate you for who you are#sometimes I use words like 'disheartening' and I can't remember if the translation I have in mind is for the actual word or something else#I don't mean to sound so depressing I just feel like I might actually jave depression. or autism. or just something wrong

Reflection
As a student, writing academic essays is accustomed. Therefore, I find it generally facile. I speak and understand English. These are essential skills because being capable of doing so is crucial in writing. If you don't fully understand what you're writing, you won't be capable of appropriately expressing what you want to say. Putting your thoughts into words can sometimes be challenging if unfamiliar with the language. Because of the songs, movies, and tv-series that I've been watching and listening to since I was a child, I have grown familiar with certain words that you don't come across every day. It also helped me understand how grammar works. An extensive vocabulary often comes in handy. Not only does it make your essay sound more professional, but it gives you more opportunities to convey your perception more clearly. Understanding how grammar works is also a fundamental skill. It makes you seem more credible, and it would help people understand you better. By having the principal skills mentioned above, writing essays that I am well-pleased with has often been uncomplicated.
Although writing is generally easy, it can sometimes be a bumpy ride. Sometimes, I experience writer's block. I would spend minutes just staring at my screen because of it. It is disappointing because it would make you feel like you can't understand anything. Sometimes I get frustrated when I can't find words that appropriately translate my thoughts. I forget the terms I want to use but, it feels as if it's on the tip of my tongue, and it is infuriating. However, when I start writing after writer's block, or when I finally remember the word plaguing my mind for the last minutes, It would make me laugh. It would make me feel as if I scratched the itchiest part of my back. Yes, encountering challenges may be disheartening, but overcoming them will give you the satisfaction that you so need.
