all your stuffed animals love you. they're not sad if they're in a box, or on the floor, or not held/played with as much. they understand. they know that you might need another stuffie more, or that you don't have enough space. they're just happy to be with you, and if you ever give them away, they'll be happy there too. stuffies are for comfort. they understand. they love you too. it's okay.

you will feel so alive again.. like so incredibly alive. i dont know when that will be but it will be. u are gonna feel so alive that ur cheeks hurt from smiling oh man oh man i promise that day is coming. you do have a future, you do have good things coming, and you’ll survive everything that’s thrown at you until you reach that day

Due to personal reasons I will be loving myself with my whole heart

Just a potato princess ready to serve~♡

This is a gentle reminder that your favorite writers are busy. Many of us have jobs, families, school, outside responsibilities that pull us in a lot of directions. If you're eager for more of a story, a comment like "update pls" or "update soon!!!" does not actually help. If you want to get the creative juices flowing, come ask us questions! I promise you your fave is going to be so happy that you show interest and reach out.

Remember, we are doing this for fun. Help make it fun for everyone involved. Including the writer.

Sincerely,

A very tired writer

a reminder that when you are distancing yourself from people, situations and things that are toxic, but were a great priority in your life in the past, there will be times when you doubt if you could really do it. there will be times when you would want to crawl back to the comfort you had known. it may get lonely. sending love to all those people who are trying their best to hold up the choice to cut off toxic things even when the decision feels so utterly bitter. i want to remind you that there is no shame in missing the person, the situation or that thing, craving the comfort, wishing that things were different. there might even be instances where you fall back to the familiar patterns. and life will continuously show you why it didn't work out, continuously try to remind you that you deserve better. please do not shame yourself for struggling with this love. the lesson cannot be forced. the journey cannot be fast paced. let things flow. i promise you, at the end of this journey there is win, and there is a better future with people and places and things that truly belong to you and that you truly deserve. it can be a very lonely time, and i know that it's gnawing. it is painful. i am sending you lots of love and strength your way ♡

A gentle reminder.

hey if anybody needs a reminder that it's going to be okay, this is it. hope is an action we take even when we feel defeated, we are never alone. this earth is vast and there is room for you here. keep going. rest. open the door to sunlight and possibilities. bundle up against the winter storm. you'll be alright, okay? together, okay?

Reminder

For people with OCD, Cluster B disorders and other ND conditions that cause intense guilt:

You are human. Hurting others is an inevitable part of the human condition. It's how you react to the harm you've done that defines you. You can grow, you're worth loving, you're worth knowing, you're worth supporting. Please don't condemn yourself for being imperfect in an age that demands perfection.

You are not a monster.

Hello, my loves. If you haven’t eaten yet today, or if you’ve had a difficult time with food for a while, this is a little reminder that you’re valuable, loved, and worthy of enjoying nice things, like delicious food and rest. It can be difficult to exist, but you’re persevering despite these hardships. If you have been waiting for a sign to be kinder or more patient towards yourself, maybe this one can encourage you to begin. I’m proud of you, and I adore you all more than words can express.

hi if you set a boundary or asked for help recently, no matter what the outcome was, i'm proud of you. you are very brave, even if you don't see it.

May Allah attach our hearts to the Qur'an and make us of those who implement it in our lives through our speech, conduct and decisions.

and if today was rough for you, i am proud of you.

and if you suffered today silently, i am proud of you.

and if you struggled with eating but you still ate, i am proud of you.

and if you were not happy for your body but you let it exist in the peace, i am proud of you.

whatever happened today good or bad, whatever you felt today - i am still very much proud of you, please keep going my friend, i love you.

It's not easy, Catato❤️ But we are trying

actually, to have the audacity to live, to take up space, is the scariest and most rewarding gift you can give yourself.
