Stinky Bear motivation. Extra rolls for Initiative

i look at things, objects, faces -- my cat purring in the sunbeam, trees bowing in the wind, the stranger laughing on the train -- and i say to myself, a good thing. a good thing. a good thing. not i am good, or even i take joy in this thing. i understand that joy is fluid and difficult to pin down. i understand i will not always be able to find it. but i know that this -- this good thing -- it exists. there is joy in the world even on the days i cannot feel it for myself. the world is composed of good things. we breathe together.

Affirmations for when all seems lost.

if you've been feeling...

...like nothing is going right, no matter how hard you are trying then maybe it's time to take a tiny step back.

sometimes, blocks need more than a short rest. sometimes, you need a longer, more real, more relaxing rest before you move on to the next step.

in these moments, it can seem like a crime to even think about a long break. allow yourself this luxury. fight for yourself ✨

As someone who is undergoing a lot mentally and also as someone who wants to work in the same field, I just wanted you all to remind yourself that you don't have to suffer alone. I know saying things will not make anything easier for anyone and it's easier said than done but I am the same as anyone who has gone through shits mentally. Earlier, I used to think "Oh I know everything, I can handle this, I know better about myself bla bla bla" but my triggers proved me wrong. They told me "Babe, you still have a lot of healing to do". It was tough for me to accept that I needed professional help. But I took that step and I am still working on myself, it is a long way to go but hopefully, I will reach there and you all will. Don't stop working on yourself and take your emotions very seriously. Value yourself and You are valid. Take care of yourselves and make yourself a priority. Be the person you are looking for.

I will not tell you to think positive and blah blah because I know when things happen, you can't simply be optimistic and over-positive all the time. Sadness, anger, rage, guilt every emotion is valid as happiness and joy. Just please take it easy and don't run from them. Feel them, sit with them, and let go. Don't try to run from them because they will hunt you down and make you suffer more. Instead, accept them as they are no matter how uncomfortable they might be.

I am sending you tons of love and hugs from my side. We got this.

Love, Infinity 🩷

Here's a daily reminder that I have to tell myself sometimes, like today for example. It's okay if you only did your hobbies for a little while, you will have a chance to do them tomorrow. Things like depression can make it hard to enjoy things, so you have to start slow. Five minutes. Then ten. Then even more.

Chop down the big task of your hobbies into smaller tasks. Take deep breaths. You will get back into the swing of things. It's okay.
