Reblog. This could really help someone out.

most abusers don’t want to be abusive either. this means:

a) the amount that you ‘don’t want’ to be abusive isn’t a point in your favor when examining the consequences of your actions

b) we have the opportunity to teach abusers to change

New Aesthetic: KINDCORE

Be nice to people

Compliment people out of the blue

Send people random asks telling the they’re great (hint, hint)

Draw Random fanart for people (hint, hint, hint)

Be patient when someone is having a rough time and lashing out

Never assume anyone is truly bad

Smile more :))

Things that take time & many tries to get right:

learning to be a good friend/partner

healing from depression, failures or heartbreak

becoming amazing at an art or skill

overcoming anxiety, insecurities and low body image

overcoming the need to isolate yourself

changing self-hating thoughts to kinder ones

making a real connection with someone

overcoming self-defeating and self-sabotaging thoughts

learning how to study effectively

finding a sense of stability and calmness at your core

quitting habits or addictions

leaving people and behaviours that turn you into the worst version of yourself

getting used to healthier coping mechanisms & mindsets that feel fake

treating yourself like you truly care about yourself

becoming the person you always wanted to be

don’t be ashamed of what you want... your hopes, your dreams, your aspirations
