Am-i-dissociating-or-depressed - Uwu

eventually you realize you don’t want to die. you just don’t want to live the life you’re living. and slowly you try to create a life you want to live. just gotta start there.

‘You can’t be happy without religion, your life will never be fulfilled!’

Utter bullshit. You know what makes life worth living?

Waking up and drinking your favorite beverage

Watching that plant you bought make a new leaf

Getting messages from your favorite person

Getting nice comments on your art from total strangers who you’ve made happy with your work

Having a pet get up from its seat just so it can come climb into your lap for cuddles

A hot relaxing bath or shower when you needed it the most

Strangers complimenting you on your outfit or your looks

Waking up to rain and knowing you don’t have to be anywhere today

Being excited for a new game/movie/book to come out

Hot chocolate on a snowy day

Trying out a new recipe and it turns out better than you imagined

Those really tight hugs where neither of you let go for minutes

Talking for hours with someone about an interesting topic

Meeting drunk strangers who try to befriend you

Getting good food

Buying yourself something nice

Unexpected friendships

Feeling REALLY good in your skin

Getting that tattoo / piercing / hair cut or dyeing your hair the way you always wanted to dye it

Doing what you want without feeling shame about it

Buying someone a gift and watching their eyes light up when you hand it to them

Being proud of your own progress instead of feeling forced to act humble

Not even thinking of death because you’re so busy loving life

Feel free to add on your own! Please keep it positive though!

r/BPDLovedOnes is the most toxic place I've ever seen and that says a fucking lot being on the internet for 3 years

I'm going to do my best to fill this page with more hope and recovery than venting but I'm leaving this pinned bc it will always be a mood

Feel free to tell me if you don't want your post reblogged and I'll delete it

DNI if you: Post graphic photos of self harm, are transphobic/homophobic

maybe there is no best version of myself. just me, right now, vulnerable and tired and hopeful, willing to show up regardless of what it looks like.
