#we’re just here to smash barbies together and make them kiss or stab each other

this is ur daily reminder, as it is the hot button topic of my dashboard rn, that anxiety does suck! but it is something u cannot rely on anybody else to fix for u, or hope that other ppl will read ur mind and make the accommodations ur too scared to do. if sb states that they don’t vibe w/ something u rely on to get around ur anxiety, maybe ur due to unfollow vs trying to shove a square block into a triangle hole.

as sb who has been Mentally Ill(TM) since preschool, i still make a genuine effort to kick my anxiety to the curb and do the things i want to, vs hoping sb will read my mind and take care of everything. i may be a shaking, terrified chihuahua at heart, but i wanna become a big stronk doggo one day.

in that same vein, don’t project ur anxiety onto others and warp their words into an attack on ur person and ur likes/dislikes. we all gotta look inward b4 we look outward. sb saying they prefer plotting over generic memes is not them personally spitting in ur face and slapping ur cat. it’s just them, like u, stating a preference for how they operate.

if u don’t like my way of thinking, ur welcome to block/unfollow to curate the dashboard experience u want! but from one anxious person to another, my piece of advice is to step away from the computer when u find urself making broad assumptions about other ppl due to ur anxiety and think if that’s rly the case, or if ur brain (like mine often does) is making a goof and getting too worked up.

have some cats.
