How to stop using your friends' voices to say mean things to yourself in your own head?

How to stop ascribing your self-loathing thoughts to the version of your friend who lives in your mind?

Fragile and Temporary

A truce

With myself at last

In the impossible silence,

Time to clear out the ruins

Before the night flames red

-

A truce

The words ring bittersweet from my tongue,

As I brace for the shatter

Of civility’s spell

-

A truce

In this mire of my own design

To recover friends lost

In its quicksand embrace

-

A truce

With my frayed former self,

Unmoved

By the mournful calm,

He flies his black flag higher

Didn't want to crowd the notes of your post, @xenasaur but you just reminded me to do something I've been meaning to do for a while.

All my alarms for meds and stuff used to say things like "wake up dumbass" and "take your pills idiot". I'm going to try these instead:

Thank you, mercy.

#for real I need to start being nicer to myself #this is a good a place to begin as any

WTFFF I thought thirteen would be my new girl crush love of my life heart eyes wife you-came-after-twelve-you-must-be-better-than-they're-all-saying bbygirl and then I had to sit down and watch as she told a man who (if he were not a murderer, of course) literally every regeneration before her would've LOVED and FULLY SUPPORTED that "the systems aren't the problem. how people use and exploit the system, that's the problem. people like you" </33333 !?!?

#WHERE IS THAT POST THAT SAID NINE WOULD KILL THIRTEEN FOR BEING A CLASS TRAITOR #WHY WOULD YOU SAY “ERODE PEOPLE'S TRUST IN AUTOMATION” ALL WORRIED AND CONCERNED LIKE THAT???#WHEN DID YOU START LIKING AUTOMATION OVER PEOPLE THINKING AND DOING THINGS FOR THEMSELVES???#AND WHY ARE YOU TRAVELING WITH A COPPER??? WE HATE COPPERS??????#did we FORGET into the dalek?? how about how he treated danny?? god there's so much more I can't even remember off the top of my head #(I understand soldiers are different from cops but c'mon don't even PRETEND twelve would've been any nicer if blue or danny were just COPS)#also a bit off topic bUT MAY I JUST TALK ABOUT ARACHNIDS IN THE UK FOR HALF A GODAMNED SECOND—#I know the companions are usually the ones to do the doctor's dirty work here but like #I just can't see the other doctors NOT having the business man lure the spider for being so fuckin annoying about it #like I was genuinely surprised when they had him do that whole song and dance about not doing it and then he actually just. didn't do it #the doctor LOVES fucking with evil rich business men this is PERFECT. plus why not get back at him for being awful to their companions?#absolutely gobsmacked thirteen let him act like that. I am wrong in thinking that the others would've shut his shit down a LOT quicker??#anyways. I love jodie whittaker and it's just so upsetting to have her doctor do something so wildly off #THIRTEEN PLEASE I HAD SUCH FAITH IN YOUUU I WAS IGNORING THE HATERS AND FOR WHAT #I can SEE the other doctors in her still I can FEEL them they're there she's doing an AMAZING job but. oh my god. what did they make her do #I can't even say she feels ooc as a whole because jodie is bloody brilliant. it's just these... moments. that don't make ANY sense to me...#especially coming off of twelve?? I get the radical personality switch but that belief is a core part of the doctor. or at least I THOUGHT #thirteenth doctor #doctor who #I still love all of you who love her and reading ur posts/fics but I. will not be making any myself. I do not think.

Girl drummer

I am, former girl drummer

Hi.

- Noel Welsh 💥🎶🥁

ooc: despite the setting I have chosen, Kim is Not Drunk here; she's just gotten to the bar as you've approached her, in my mind

Stellar opening. Five of five stars. Congratulations, I guess? You've narrowly avoided a very harrowing encounter.

*Kim's voice is dry as she sets down her bottle, rubbing the bridge of her nose before she spins around on the bar stool to actually look at who's approached her.*

*She looks him up and down for a moment, brow raised.*

I have a name, you know. Suspect you do, too. Generally what people offer, in an introduction.

*Grabbing her bottle back off the counter behind her, she takes a long swig from it before resting it in her lap, tapping her fingers along the neck of it.*

It's Kim. Kim Pine. And you are...?

#hypmic #hypnosis mic #samatoki aohitsugi #happy birthday yokohama bad boy or whatever. love u #i missed drawing him a lot actually. it's been a while #this is one of those drawings that i feel like i'm giving myself too much credit for but i rly am shocked how alright this turned out #that being said i continue to be frustrated by how shit i am at everything past solid coloring. shading is sooooo hardddddd #hence why i decided to post an un-rendered version here. the one with shading etc is on twt but i immediately regretted posting it lol #i just like this one better idk. the lineart is my fav part and it looks nicer here #but well... comparing this to my samatoki bday art from a year ago i'm relieved to see actual major improvement #i still want to draw more often and keep learning though. it's just been hard to find the time and mental capacity lately #7-7-cherry drawingz

Something I’ve been thinking about for the new year

#sth #sonic the hedgehog #knuckles the echidna #adhd-in-space #I just struggle being nice to people I really care about but I like to think behind the glares and mean words #my friends know I love them a whole lot and would do anything for them #dw dw I am trying to work on myself to be a nicer person I am #but one of my longest and closet friends has been saying this to be a new times so #made it into something #starting this year with something personal #I work so much I do sometimes feel I’m isolated from them all but they still find their own ways to check in on me and look after me #even when we are so far apart so yeah #obviously I didn’t mean for this to be a ship thing just more of me using knuckles for my reflective thinking #but if you ship so Knux and see it that way that’s alright too idc #I may have accidentally made sonics fingers a bit too pudgy but idk don’t precieve them

Very small vent then I'll get back to normal i promise

#but it blows my mind that israel can bomb christian churches and christians will still ride israels gross dick #like is it because theyre orthodox churches? does that make it okay?#I'll probably delete this later but sometimes I do see people on my fyp that I'm like #are yall seeing the same news as me? like what is your problem? are you pretending to be christian or something?#or do you just hate orthodox christians?#or more realistically do you just hate arab christians #i know im supposed to be nicer and have more grace for people during lent so saying kys isnt appropriate #even if its my gut reaction #thats something i need to fix about myself #but genuinely I pray that people like that stop being evil

Soon im rly gonna do it

#🕸️#sui mention #< in the tags tho cuz it feels nicer to talk abt this in tags than in the post itself cuz to me posts are like talking normally but tags are #like whispering? talking you can tune out if you want but whispering is rather more voluntary to say it doesnt matter however #every single year passes and i wish i didnt live in each and every one of them i feel disconnected dissatisfied empty disappointed every day #it can be a small part of a day or a bigger but its still there clenching onto me like and never letting go im tired of it theres always a #wall between me and otyer ppl im unsure if i put it there or was it put there by other ppl but its there and even if anyone tries to reach #into it do i understand how even if close are we really far away it makes me understand just how much of an abnormality i am and how much i #cant ever be like them no matter how much i try and climb and crawl until i bleed its exhausting its maddening #almost everything i do is shaped by spite i wear one bracelet for years out of spite i dont smoke out of spite i dont shave my hands not #only because im normal abt body hair but also out of spite the more i know ppl the spiteful i get only way for me to truly like someone is #to keep them at a lenght outside that wall if they get in then theres only two choices for them to dislike me or even hate my entire being #or me to shove them back out without ever letting them get in #coworkers say im a nice kind person but im not its all just a facade to make my life easier and to suit myself im hateful but i dont believe #its entirely my fault after all they will to my face make fun of. laugh at. and hate everything of me they would see in other ppl that dont #hide it deep within like i do and then it rly hits me how different abnormal foul disgusting and unnatural i am #im hit with his every talk that goes on too long every word that keeps going every touch every expression every comment made on my behalf #its exhausting to live this way i fear im near my limit i havent reached it but who knows when i will #i sometimes dream of doing it and leaving behind a note wishing nothing but painful suffering to everyone i ever knew irl but i dont want to #do that to my best friends and my dog but who knows how long its left before the thread breaks #thats all like comment and subscribe if you personally would do me a favor by taking me out back and shooting me

#raveartts #rave.characters #furry art #animation #me after i re-export everything to add dithering only for tumblr to put the shitty color banding back ;_;#anyways i think this took like..3 and a half hours? maybe 4 idk #8 frames on 12fps and i managed to get it looking pretty darn smooth 😍#there's some mistakes in there which will only bother specifically me forever #but like #honestly this is the best animation i've ever made #she looks so fucking adorable and i'm gonna pat myself on the back about that #it's nice being able to shade with multiply layers on an animation too #ANYWAYS goodnight tumblr #my hand is cramped to infinity and beyond #but loooook i added her hair gradient AND the stripes #incredible stuff right here #i could've added a nicer bg but i had zero ideas and again..my hand...it hurts

Sometimes I'll see a shit take and think about replying, and then I just block them instead and it's so much better for me, I think.

I mean not really because obviously I'm still thinking about it, but in theory! It's probably better for me.

#I used to feel bad about blocking people because *what if I post something they'd like to see? :(* which is. Adorably arrogant lol #But now it's like. Hello; no. You are precisely the kind of person they are complaining about. This is better for everyone #Also: the thing they said sucks and life is nicer by not seeing it #Me convincing me to keep blocking instead of getting into fights because people wanna complain instead of being the change they wanna see #Me complaining about complainers. I'm gonna block myself.#*turns off my wifi so I can actually do something productive*

i have a weird relationship with weight because i hated eating more than anything the moment i was ready for solids ( i hate chewing with my entire life always have & will ) which made me underweight for most of my life ( to this day ) & during late primary-middle school this made me actively suicidal because i felt like something was wrong with my sex because i just was not developing whatsoever prompting me to have a years long phase of trying to gain weight in any way i could ( #EPICFAIL by the way ) & i was already insecure but i felt seriously so unforgivably ugly after bullying not just at school but by adults of my entourage. but then i did in my late 15s which prompted the pendulum to swing in the other direction & suddenly i FREAKED OUT & thought well being skinny is pretty much all i have & know myself to be & clearly it is not going to last forever so i Better preserve it i was delusional about how skinny i thought i was actually i look stumpy & weird i have to prove myself. But now i am normal again kind of

#also i used to get beaten to finish my food nearly daily & it would take me forever to do that like literally hours with no exaggeration #just made me hate eating even more. now my technique is eating as fast as possible before i even realize how overwhelming #the sensory experience is & i can just be done with it VS the pain&dread of eating slowly -> disgust of Everything+hyperawareness #eating tightens my muscles like i hate it so fucking much catching the food putting it in my mouth CHEWING swallowing #what a damn chore #so i always liked cheese it was my “safe food” pretty much the only thing i liked #i even hated the foods autists usually like like fries & fried chicken meatballs ETC. HATED.#i was/am more of a soup & turning all my food into varieties of Slop kind of girl nothing hard for me please...#i experienced middle school during the like ♯Thick era of the world which was honestly a good thing like for The Populace #but i felt like killing myself because i felt like an unforgivable fugly genetic failure & people did not hesitate to let me know #anyway either way i would be unhappy caus if i did gain weight during puberty i would have a meltdown about all the Changes #so i feel content for the time being about only losing the fat in my face & getting age appropriate wrinkles really #trying to enjoy the privilege of thinness while i have it because it will not last forever 0_0 but that should not matter anyway...#the privilege of thinness: being way uglier than others & constantly looking like a gibbon dying of disease + no energy or strength ever #JK people are much MUCH nicer to thin people & they do things for me on account of looking physically incapable so um yay i guess #light at the end of the tunnel that is very significant in the grand scheme of things socially. ♯CountingMyBlessings #also i was raised on ♯HAES tumblr from 2014-2018 i truly believed in that & was so damn envious i was not curvy & beautiful LOL #so i never hated overweight people really i think for the most part the SJW tumblr values stuck with me #but now i know it depends on your base frame & genetics & there is no guarantee to what you choose to do (naturally) acceptance is peace #sorry for the gigantic Arse post i just needed to get that off my chest for a long time. not on here specifically just in general #oh & i am a ♯Grignoteuse but grignoter (grazing) is different from eating in my mind&body #& my insecurity was not a result of wanting to fit in really but kind of in the sense that i wanted people to stop berating me for my looks #like body wise only & also not understanding why every other girl looked like a girl blossoming into a woman #& i looked like i was transitioning to Malnourished (unsexed) Ape made worse by bein GNC.& like the need for control later on & erthang ETC

it is really crazy i had such a stressful day at work and i was like wow nothing can possibly make me feel fine today and then i went to yoga + gym and now i feel so loose like a noodle and so happy and sleepy and nice and i want to go back in time and kick my younger self’s ass for being convinced that yoga is only for people in their 30s

#if you are 18 or under reading this #first of all don’t read my posts please sometimes they aren’t nice #and second of all get into yoga #to the best of your ability #even if it’s just youtube videos #i can’t imagine how good i would’ve felt especially from 19-24 #if i had just fucking done this one little thing to take care of myself #especially now being 26 and struggling with being on the road and how it affects my body #i can’t wait to go on tour again as a person who does yoga #i bet it’s so much nicer
