hey just a little reminder — sometimes when you’re in survival mode, living day by day is literally all you can do. it’s all you have space for. and then when you have the space and time and release to slowly start to come out of survival mode, you have to re-learn how to live with the future in mind. learning from your past. making your future self proud. doing things your future self will thank you for. and I don’t see a lot of people talking about how TERRIFYING that is. but it is. it’s really, really scary to plan and learn what healthy self discipline looks like and how to greet every version of yourself. and so if that’s you today — I’m very proud of you. there’s nothing shameful about relearning something. you’re doing so well! I’m so glad you got this far <3

Today, I told my mother one of the main reasons I haven't committed suicide is because our insurance policy doesn't cover it. I know and acknowledge that if I decided to finally do it; my family wouldn't be able to afford it. Even in what could be my last moment, I am putting other people first.
Her response was silence, and she changed the subject. Yes, I know that could be a heavy subject for a parent to hear from their child. However, she's never cared or considered my mental health before. So, should I really fucking care?

I've never been the most social.
I don't call, I don't text, and after awhile poeple leave you be in that respect. But maybe that's the reason for all my lonely nights. I don't reach out and I forget to shout.
I'm hear I swear it, I'm just to scared to share it.

Remember, depression is not a sign of weakness. It's a sign that you've been strong for too long.

things I did this week instead of rotting in bed
my depressive phase is completely out and I managed to go back to my normal life!!!
I worked, worked, worked & worked a little more
I watered the plants I forgot during my depressive phase
I went to a LGBT bar and met an amazing bi guy who gave me a cute bracelet,, I wanted to kiss him but I'm shy to have intimacy with people I've never met before (he kissed some guys and I got envious lol)
I did alternative goth makeups for going out!! I looked like a sad clown and loved it!!
I used my free time to spend good quality time with myself, doing skincare, sleeping properly, lighting candles and just vibing alone
I started my graphic design freelancing and I did a solid good job with my first job

‘ I have depression.’ Vague and doesn’t give a full meaning. ‘Daily I battle the cruel beasts of death, blocking my ears against their insipid lies; I fight their flaming spears of apathy with all my might and plot strategy by night.’ Perfect.

Suffocating
Tumblr media
Following the love of my recent artwork of Kerry (thank you all btw! <3 ) I wanted to focus a little more on Kerry's mental health. Mental health has always been an important factor in my life, I too struggle with depression and anxiety. We have good days and bad days, and that's one of the reasons why I grew to adore Kerry as much as I do. Learning his backstory and how he tried to cope with his constant demons, and the growth of his character that came with it.
It's not shown much in the game of Kerry's struggles, but the hints are definitely there, and I wanted to explore it a bit more to raise a bit of awareness. I hope to do more of these, its always been a passion of mine to raise awareness of mental health and Kerry has become my muse to do it. His relationship with Johnny, the loss of Johnny, learning to cope without him etc.

you're not "better off alone," you're afraid of rejection and you're trying to protect yourself, even if you would vastly benefit from the support of others.

And the most important thing to remember is that you have time. Time to discover new people and new projects and new places; time to heal from your past and your wounds. You might feel like you’re getting nothing done and nothing is happening, but you have time to discover your soul. It will happen for you <3

CE characters discovering you have depression and anxiety
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Trigger warning: depression and anxiety. If you feel the need to commit suicide, contact 988 (previously 1-877-273-8255, this will work for some time), or call 911 immediately! Trust me, there is help out there, and there is no shame in asking for help. Things might seem hopeless now, and you feel helpless, and devoid of all energy and life, and you feel like everything hurts, everyone has abandoned you, everyone has turned on you, etc., please know that you are not alone. As I've explained, there is help out there, and there's no shame in asking for help.
Colin Shea:
Tumblr media
Colin sees you crying, curled up in a ball.
"I just can't do this...I just can't do this..."
Colin puts his arms around you, and holds you, and rocks you.
Colin tells you everything will be okay, and that you'll get through this.
Colin serenades you with his own songs, and some of his favorites.

(Trust me, when you're undergoing a psych eval., the people in the psych ward aren't screwing around with this! No strings, no keys, no razors. I wasn't even allowed to have my knitting because the knitting needles were considered weapons.)
You start to get better, because you're not only getting help, talking, and taking an antidepressant and antianxiety meds,
Ransom helps find you one of the best therapists in the area.
You start getting better because you're finally opening up about what you've been through.

"I'm proud of you."

Two of your co-workers are not only bullying you at work, they are making it difficult for you to even function.
