i'm a pretty big fan of stuff and things

[ Image ID: a tweet from twitter user @/chronicparent30 that reads “Chronic illness is weird in that if a healthy person got ill for a week with the symptoms I deal with every single day, they’d likely rest and do the bare minimum for that week. But because my symptoms are forever I’m meant to live life as normal no matter how dreadful I feel.” End ID ]

"no worries" ah but that is where you are wrong. there are many worries

she took the midnight train going anywhere

sometimes it’s better refrain from deep introspection and allow yourself to just be.

and by that I mean: I don’t have to sit with myself and overthink and analyze and rationalize every ounce of my being. I am not a case study I am a person. faults and all. like any other person. sometimes I have to look at my mistakes and avoid self flagellation. sigh and learn what I can and move on. remember that I am living, and this is part of the process. free myself of that inner critic. allow myself to be, and try again.

Man of his word. It only took a couple of lifetimes. I was in love with my son's best friend. I didn't know what to do. Then you asked for that toothpaste. I was damned if I wasn't gonna find something.

The answer to your problems is self-discipline

lol i hate today’s era of absolutely zero nuance takes. a friend didn’t behave exactly as you’d wanted them to? cut them off. a guy didn’t text you back instantly bc he has his own life? he’s just giving you breadcrumbs. doing something makes you uncomfortable? don’t do it anymore. someone isn’t instantly available for you? disinterest. just absolutist statements that often don’t apply to the multilayer situations of everyday life. like. stop. literally just stop it

"i don't like this thing and i wish i didn't have to see people talking about it all the time"

you're allowed to be proud of things that others would consider small you're allowed to be proud of eating food you're allowed to be proud of drinking water you're allowed to be proud of brushing your teeth you're allowed to be proud of washing your hair you're allowed to be proud of going outside you're allowed to be proud of having a conversation you're allowed to be proud of getting out of bed you're allowed to be proud of just surviving this long you're allowed to be proud of things that others would consider small

Normalize being proud of "i did a thing" regardless of what the thing is

Life sucks, we're all struggling

Give yourself a break and a pat in the back every now and then

You're doing the thing

Be proud
