You deserve a happy ending. No matter what the situation is, no matter how hard it is to survive and cope. You deserve a true genuine happy ending.

idk who needs to hear this but your body is loveable 

Somebody might need to hear this: hey. That was a really scary thing you had to go through. What an awful feeling to be carrying around. So deep inside where no one can hurt you like that ever again. If no one else has ever told you this before then I'm glad you're here. I'm glad you made it. And I'm so fucking sorry you had to see it to begin with. You absolutely did not need to see that. Not ever.

Being mentally ill is ok. It's not shameful or embarassing. A lot of people have some kind of mental illness and you're allowed to be as private or open about ot as you wish. You're not a criminal for being sick.

i think makeup can be artistic expression i also think sometimes people are lying about it being about artistic expression and would in fact be a lot happier if they had never been told they had to wear it

Even if the abuse didn’t “feel bad” at the time, it was still abuse. And you are still allowed to feel whatever you feel about it. 

I love thinking of my time in the real world as starting from when I became legally an adult. It helps me be so much less hard on myself to be like well. I’m only 21. I’ve only been legally an adult for 3 years. I am a 3 year old adult. It’s okay if I make mistakes or don’t get things right immediately or bruise myself a little bit trying to hit a stride. Now is the time to trip and fall and get a little bruised. But then u get up and it heals and u know not to trip next time. You quite literally just started so why are u harsh on urself for mistakes that were essentially inevitable

why is the pressure to be “the bigger person” always placed on the person who was wronged?

I’m sorry for all the times my mental health made me a bad friend

we're all at our limit right? can i assume that or

people misunderstand what ‘gifted kid’ actually means but it’s ok it’s fine it’s cool it’s good

It doesn’t matter how much you wish you could do things differently. It doesn’t matter how much guilt you feel. Neither of things will change the past.

It’s okay to move on, forgive yourself and look to your future instead.

sorry about my constant depressive episodes. its just that i have issues and also problems

As someone who grew up with "I'm not going to praise you for doing what's expected of you; that's not being good, that's doing the bare minimum" I want to encourage you to celebrate every little thing you can. Everything that takes energy and effort should be appreciated and you're allowed to be happy about trying.

You are doing your best and that is enough
