I find myself in the state of constant sadness and hopelessness. There's when I feel the most lonely. The unsettling thoughts keep running in mind. I try to fade those voices in my head who repeatedly nag me about my unworthiness. No I don't deserve these but the voices say otherwise. They never leave my side.Deep down I believe in the beauty of existence of each and every individual, I just know it but why don't I apply it to myself? Does this make me a two-faced person, a hypocrite? Because I know for a fact that I'm slowly killing myself with these lethal thoughts.

Man why most Dark Academia decor ideas are like "get a Roman marble statue" or "put an antique gramophone".
Most of the Dark Academia "fanbase" are students, myself included. So here's a list of actual room decor that won't make you go bankrupt or rob a museum (tho that would be nice), which works for not only Dark, but any Academia:
Books . Pile up your to-read list or your favorite or just good looking ones.
A lamp. Preferably a little antique-ish, something affordable and nice and one that actually works and doesn't take half your desk.
Candles . The easiest. Just normal or scented one. Put them in one place or scatter through the room.
Flowers . Maybe a little Cottagecore-y, but flowers are nice to gaze upon while daydreaming, calms you down and a nice addition to any room.
Something floral but withered . A pressed flower or a branch with dried leaves. Maybe weird, but it's nice and stays longer than flowers.
A thing or two from a second hand or a flea market just for the ✨ aesthetic ✨ (I have a wooden pipe. I don't smoke and don't intend to). Like a candle holder.
Bo - I can't emphasize this enough - xes. Any size and colour, to put anything from notes to books to flowers. I got a nice looking chest and a jewelry box.
An inspiration board. I got a cork board with letters from my friends and some pictures. I also put there things to remember and tips.
Wall decor. May be a glued to the wall music score, a picture in a frame, flowers (again), photos, quotes and pages of books.
Additional shelves (if possible).
Stationery holder. I've got like 8 (I'm not kidding) on my desks for different purposes bc I'm a horder ;)
Posters. Anime, movies, inspiration, nature... Anything. It's your room.
Anything you feel fits there. A skull you found in the woods? Stick it in. Your laptop to work and watch movies on? Make sure it can charge. Your collection of anything? Make that shit visible fam. A photo of your idol or a loved one? Put it on! A poster with a boys band covered in writing? Above the bed it goes!
You may add more.

I'm still organizing all the photos I've been taken throughout the last years, to post more often, hopefully now that I’m on vacations I’ll be able to do so! Anyway, follow me to see more, and future photos...

Oh to own a library with all the thousands of books I've ever wanted to read...
"With flowers in mind, nothing inside the world seems so cruel after all."
Ironically, the worst kind of love is the pure one; the kind which demands nothing.
Just a thought I had about how much I give with the full knowledge of no acknowledgment... I Thought Tumblr might identify.
