Digital illustration of a fat woman sitting. She’s wearing leggings and a tank top. There’s flowers and text that reads, ‘ your body may change, but your worth does not’
Rest if you need to! Stay aware of what time it is. If you’re staying up late, it might be time to head to bed! A good night’s sleep is important to your mental and physical health. :)

Summary: a campfire under a moonlit night sky.
A painting of a grassy night-time landscape. There is a big, inviting, orange-red camp fire in the center of the image. The flames reach high up into the sky. Next to the fire there is a tree log, conveniently placed like a bench to sit on by the fire. There is also a tree stump, which a metal knight’s helmet rests atop. Behind it, a sword has been stabbed into the ground. The area around the fire is brightly lit; the grass is a lush green and looks soft. Outside the cone of light, it is dark but not scarily so. There are some trees, but the landscape is very open. The night sky is indigo, with grey-blue clouds. A big white full moon is visible between the clouds, in the top center of the painting.

It doesn't matter if you hadn't done the things you were supposed to do. It doesn't matter that if you finished 1 thing out of 4 things. You don't have 3 more things to do, you have 1 less thing to complete.
It doesn't matter if you had relapsed after a day or 3 of productivity and healing into a spiral again. What matters is that you get back up and start again. Because now you're a bit stronger and more resilient than before.
It doesn't matter if all you did today was getting out of bed, eat and change your clothes while you did nothing else. Appreciate yourself and give yourself the credit you deserve for doing those small things.
It doesn't matter if the only thing you did today was to focus on existing and on yourself alone. Be proud of surviving till the end of the day because you made it through knowing that there was a possibility of you not making it.
Progress is still progress. It doesn't matter if you take small or big steps. You're taking a step and that's all that matters.
I’m really happy to see that a lot of people are trying to be more positive ready for 2017! To help share the positive vibes I’ve made these stickers to fight against negativity! They’ll also be available on my redbubble to buy as real stickers!
