the entire point of life is to be silly, kind, and really weird btw.
fuck texting and expensive dinner dates. i just wanna run around in flower fields and kiss in the rain
i need to remember that recovery is not linear. there will be good days, there will be bad bad bad days, and there might even be some really bad days. but these bumps in the road do not mean you’re not getting better. they do not mean all the progress you made is gone. so please, if you are having a bad day remember this feeling wont last forever. i know it seems like it will, but if you can just hold on for a little bit longer, you’ll soon see again all you have been working for.

im going to come out and say it: isolating is a self-destructive behavior. it might not be as obvious and immediately self-destructive as say, impulsive spending, drug use or risky behaviors, but it gradually decays relationships and can deepen your mental health issues. often, our impulse is to retreat from others and responsibilities for “self care” or to “work on ourselves” and obviously sometimes we need mental health breaks, but there’s a line you cross from “taking a break” to full on neglecting your relationships with others and your social needs that can be incredibly damaging to yourself and others over time
art will save you, being unreasonably passionate about something niche will save you, letting past sources of joy show you the way back to yourself will save you, earnestness over composure will save you, the natural world will save you, caring for something bigger than yourself will save you, daring to be seen will save you, kindness not as a whim but a principle will save you, appreciation as a practice will save you, daring to try something new will save you, grounding will save you, love will save you, one good nights sleep will save you
