Lily's Courageous Battle: Overcoming Depression On Her Own Terms

Once upon a time, there was a brave girl named Lily. She was always happy and cheerful

but one day, she started feeling sad and hopeless. She didn't know what was happening to her, but she knew she didn't like it.

 She decided to go to a doctor who diagnosed her with depression, Lily was scared, but she decided to face her depression and overcome it by herself.

Lily started by talking to her friends and family about how she was feeling. She realized that she wasn't alone and that many people go through the same thing. She also started doing things that made her happy, like reading, drawing, and spending time with her pets. She knew that it wouldn't be easy, but she was determined to overcome her depression.

With time, Lily started feeling better. She still had bad days but knew how to deal with them. She learned that it's okay to ask for help and that it's important to take care of herself. She was proud of herself for facing her depression and overcoming it by herself. And she knew that if she ever felt sad again, she would be strong enough to face it once more.

rdr2 is such a special game to replay because. god. the whole thing is a ghost story. the gang is dead before they even reach colter. everything that tears them apart - the mistrust, the friction, the loss, the lack of place and time - it's there from the beginning. before the beginning. papered over by a veneer of love and care and family but when the last of it leaves they're all just. gone. scraps of newspaper headlines faded in the sun and wooden grave markers that will rot and fall back into the earth. if you've played rdr you know what happens to these characters. you play your first playthrough of rdr2 knowing you're hurtling towards an inescapable end. you play every one thereafter knowing the end has already come.

#they're not doomed by the narrative. they're at odds with the narrative. this is a story that was never meant to be told #but it mattered. it fucking mattered. #this game makes me want to tear my hair out honestly #i'm also losing my mind thinking about writing a fic where the strange man pays each gang member a visit #so there's that #reiver plays rdr2 #rdr2

the choice between Edward & Jacob is not a question of which relationship is healthier or which partner is best suitable for Bella. neither is correct. neither is best. neither produces a happy ending for Bella. at the end of the day this is still a vampire novel. any choice Bella could make would yield, at best, a bittersweet happily ever after.

if she chooses Edward, she gets the terrifying Breaking Dawn ending: a girl who rejected her call to grow up has hung her love & her eternity on an emotionally stunted partner who hates himself marginally less than he loves her. she's a teen mom with a kid she never wanted who perpetuates the generational trauma passed down from her parents. by keeping this child, the Cullens have set the stage for an uprising/cold war against the Volturi who are likely to take revenge in order to maintain power. Bella is living in a tenuous "dream come true" wrapped in a nightmare & doesn't realize it.

choosing Jacob is the true coming-of-age ending that rips the stitches out of a wound that never fully healed. even if we ignore the fact that she ends up with a man who sexually assaulted her (we must bear in mind Jacob's character is influenced by smeyer's racism, but it did happen), they can't have a secure romantic relationship. based on the high imprinting rate of the pack, Jacob will likely find his imprint in his lifetime & will lose himself to the imprintee. he will no longer be her Jacob. he will inevitably abandon her (whether he wants to or not), & she must reconcile with the reality that she will always be inadequate to Jacob's imprint. & say he never manages to escape the vampires? he will presumably not age for a long time, meaning the relationship Bella always feared with Edward (her being an old grandmother while he stays forever young) remains a possibility. this is the story of a girl who slaps a Band Aid on an open wound & calls herself healed while flinching every time she sees the shadow of the knife that cut her.

if she chooses neither (team therapy), her healing requires her to lose or be at least partially disconnected from everyone she cares about. Bella must spend the rest of her life shut out from one world while never fully existing in her human world ever again. she must always keep secrets. she can never go back home. even in the unlikely event that she manages to escape the Volturi, the threat of being hunted by vampires will never leave her. in addition, she must face her worst fears (aging, losing Edward) while always keeping in mind the immortal life that could have been hers, if only.

even the "healthiest" option produces scars that will never quite heal.

Twilight is a horror. Twilight is a vampire novel. Twilight is gothic. Twilight is fiction. neither Edward nor Jacob is a "bad" choice because neither will give Bella her happily ever after. the choice between Edward & Jacob is simply a matter of which horror story you prefer to read.

#twilight #twilight renaissance #bella swan #the twilight saga #edward cullen #twilight saga #twilight meta #not to be a downer but the edward/jacob feud is silly #i understand this feud will continue in perpetuity because controversy & drama will always garner attention in online spaces etc #but the idea that either of these men will provide the happy story some people in this fandom want is an illusion #because no matter what happens The Twilight Saga still operates in the context of the vampire/gothic genre which by design can't produce #a 100% happy ending. the vampire itself reflects the inner anxieties of a society - & isolation & change & death - etc. #these are anxieties that can be alleviated thru vamp media. they can be escaped but never solved. which is part of the horror of the genre #The Horror Will Not Go Away #& in this respect Twilight is NOT the exception to the rule. #'oh but it's a YA romance so-' yeah so the black walls get wallpapered. they're still black underneath & nothing changes that #i wish we were able to debate the choice between Edward & Jacob while still bearing in mind neither choice is wrong #i think this fandom would be a lot less toxic & mean to each other for no fuckin reason but oh well

You have that [chemistry] with Ja'Marr, right? What difference did it make for you knowing him already when he came into the league?

Yeah, we've kind of... grown together as football players. My first year starting was his true freshman year of college. So we've kind of been on the rise together and learned each other on the way, and so we know exactly what each other's thinking. Every snap, every play.

#MIND READING!!!!!!!!!! #ugh their connection #it's incredible and yet it makes so much sense! #every part of their football careers that have matter #have been with each other!!! #ahhhhhhhhh!!!! #joe burrow #ja'marr chase

You know we all meme about how Luffy doesn't give a shit about his parents/Dragon, how he seemingly has no interest in learning about the man or meeting him at all, and like yeah that is a Luffyism

And for a long time I figured Baby Luffy would be the same too; that Luffy in his naïvete just accepted he must've spawned from the ocean itself into Garp's care or something, not realizing he should in fact have parents, thus Luffy's seeming disinterest in them

But you know what

Luffy did spend most of his early childhood alone

Sure, he had Garp, but it seems like Garp wasn't always there to look after him every day, he had his duties as a Marine too. Had Garp been there 24/7 all year then Garp would never have allowed Luffy to interact with Shanks (a filthy pirate) to begin with. So yes, Luffy had his grandpa, but not all the time. And sure, Luffy also had Shanks, but Shanks didn't spend all his time in Fuusha Village either, he came and went whenever he pleased too until his final departure when Luffy was just six years old. And yes, there was everyone else in the village too, people who cared about Luffy and were helping look after him. But Luffy's early childhood was one without a stable family.

It wasn't until Garp yeeted the child into Dadan's care that Luffy actually gained a proper family, where after months and months of trying Luffy managed to win Ace's trust and gained Sabo as a brother too. But as we know, by that point Luffy already hated being alone

All of this to say; Luffy growing up essentially orphaned would explain why he's so afraid to be alone, the way he clings onto people

In some ways Luffy's POV is meant to be the reader's POV, to some degree Luffy's feelings and thoughts are meant to be how we the readers feel and think about whaveter is happening in the story. Not a 100% by any means, but somewhat at the very least.

Perhaps Luffy's lack of interest in Dragon isn't just "Luffy not giving a damn about blood family because chosen families are better" nor "Luffy is too stupid to understand where babies come from". Perhaps Luffy, who may have assumed he didn't have parents at all (as in "might've assumed they were dead or had intentionally abandoned him"), doesn't know what to think about the fact that he does have a father out there, one whom he has never as much as met. Because yeah, Luffy doesn't know why Dragon left him with Garp, why he never got to be with his dad. Should he be angry at Dragon, hate him for being left alone? Or did Dragon have a good reason for it, does Dragon wish things could've been different?

Perhaps Luffy's seeming disinterest in Dragon isn't because he doesn't care about blood family, but because much like us the readers, Luffy doesn't quite know what to make of Dragon, and figuring those feelings out hasn't been relevant to the plot yet.

#Moon posting #OP Meta #IDK I see people often kind of just. Overly simplify (/dumbify) One Piece's themes about family into just like #''To hell with blood relatives! Chosen family is literally all that matters! Blood relatives can eat shit!'' #And it just. Feels like such a shame because One Piece's themes around family are so much more complex than that #Yes! Chosen/adopted families are just as much families as ones tied with blood! A family isn't more real just because it's tied with blood! #Sometimes your relatives suck ass! You don't have to considder them ''family'' at all! #And sometimes your family does Questionable Things but with the well-being of their family genuinely in mind. As their priority. #Despite everything Garp really loves Luffy AND ACE. He's an idiot but genuinely only ever wanted the best for those two #Family is when people love each other and want look after one another. **That's** what matters #That's why blood family reunions have been such a big reoccuring thing in the story especially post-TS #Reuniting families that've been torn apart would not matter if they did not love each other #IDK man I have Thoughts but not the braincells to form coherent sentences

I DON'T MEAN THIS IN ANY LITERATURE-Y OR BRAINY WAY I WAS JUST THINKING HOW GENEROUS IT WAS OF SUZANNE COLLINS TO GIVE US EVERLARK CRAZED PEOPLE THE LINE,

"THIS 🌼 WOULD 🌼 HAVE 🌼 HAPPENED 🌼 ANYWAY"

#JUST #THANK YOU SO MUCH SUZANNE #sometimes in this brutal series it feels like her mind has experienced the depths of obsession for fictional people in love #does she have any idea of what that line has done for us #soulmates? pfft. thats weak. this would have happened anyway? CERTAINTY that no matter what happened differently #they would always end up in each other's arms #i cry #the sheer amount of fanfic possibilities #does she even know #everlark

Ok since you said that Fantasy! Barnaby's tobacco smoke will change color depending on his mood, so like what colors mean witch emotion? Im very curious

oh, very general emotions, it's not very Specific i'd think. cool colors correlate with cool emotions - like a frosty blue would mean he's feeling frigid, yk yk

#warm colors - like a nice red or gold or orange - would mean he's Feeling warm #im not explaining what i have in my head very well! #so like if he's off to the side and smoking #and the smoke is warmly colored #everyone will understand that hes in a good mood! he's very approachable! he's feeling Affection perhaps! #but if he's exhaling blue #everyone will understand that he needs some space & time to himself #rambles from the bog #wh fantasy au #it can be hard to tell sometimes #since in my mind the smoke - no matter the original color when breathed out - will quickly fade into pinks/purples #gotta focus on the base color! gotta pay attention! #so a nice orange-red would be all the way at the 'good mood' end of the spectrum #while icy/sky blues are at the other #i mean there is variation #like purple-pinks can mean he's feelin a bit mischievous or sly i suppose #gold can be energetic while yellow-green can mean he's feeling uncomfortable #blue-green could be worry/concern! #reds/pinks tend to be a bit more flirtatious - with red more on the earnest side while pink is more uh. playful? #it all blends into each other i imagine... #kinda gotta get a feel for the nuances #i wonder if barnaby would notice? if no one pointed it out i mean

Quotes From some of my favorite TV couples that make me think of Sam and Darlin'

"What you and I have makes me free."

"I love you... It means we take care of each other... It means thick and thin, good times, bad, sickness, health, all that shit. "

"He'd been told to do something and, brat that he was, didn't like being told what to do"

“I have two centuries walked this earth and can report you have no twin. No one as angry, as stubborn, as unaccommodating, as maddening.... As loving, as dedicated, as thoughtful, as imperfectly perfect as you've become. You're a challenge every sunset, Saint Louis. And I'd have it no other way. "

"We can make this whole damn world ours if we wanted to."

"You wanna know why I fell in love with you? You're a fighter and you never give up."

#pay no mind to how these couples started out and or ended #they love each other that's all that matters #redacted asmr #redactedverse #redacted werewolves #redacted vampires #redacted darlin #redacted tank #redacted sam #redacted sam collins

Does anyone else think about breaking up with their self-ships? Like scenarios for when, how or why it might happen and for how long. Whether you remain friends or cut each other off completely, and if fate will bring you back together later?

#I’ve just been having a lot of thoughts about this lately #like breaking up with Bakugou because things aren’t working no matter how hard we try #conflicting work schedules paired with external factors trying to pull us apart #he thinks I’m safer— better without him #and there’s nothing that can change his mind #so we go our separate ways and it’s hard esp when we share the same friends #having to be together at gatherings when you’re not really together #and it hurts #maybe we both try other relationships but it’s not the same #and maybe it’s years until we rekindle #but somehow the love is still there and it’s just as strong #idk the falling in love again trope hits so hard I love it #like just knowing there’s no one else in this world for you? #and even though years have passed you still find each other

Ok one thing I want to say is as a trans man I’m personally uncomfortable if a lesbian wants to date me. However I don’t mind trans men who do date lesbians because that’s totally cool, I just wish people wouldn’t make a big fuss about it when I say that “I” don’t want to (im super attracted to men being one reason) and my childhood best friend who’s a lesbian is cool with it too

yeah!! it always confuses me when people say lesbians or trans men "can't do xyz," because you know. people CAN do whatever they want regardless of sexuality. and when people ask you if you if you think they can it's like....yes?? because they have free will?? I can't control someone's personal decisions??

#and then take that to mean you think ALL should and are forcing them into it #like. no. im aware most wouldn't. I just don't care about what a small portion is doing because it's none of my business #what their doing has nothing to do with me or anyone else for that matter. go worry about something else #trans men who date lesbians aren't invalidating other trans men who wouldn't because. they're separate people #and what one is doing says nothing about another #I hate this idea that if my experience with a label is different from others under the same label I'm somehow. invalidating them?? #no. im not. because we're two different people. that have nothing to do with each other. how insecure can you get #that you think other people's identities invalidate your own #mind your own business #asks #idk what to tag this as

i think rosemary would have a cold war when getting ready for their wedding. as in they love each other. they do want to get married (as much as any...what. they were 17 or whatever in the credits?) can but I think looking down the barrel of commitment makes rose start to tweak about completely unimportant things like the floral arrangements and its like 9 pm 3 hours before their last chance at cancellation with no fees or delay to the service and she's like Kanaya my dear I will not let you ruin our sacred union with those centerpieces. Have you even thought about how'd they'd look against the tablecloth. we'd have to burn the photographs. we'd have to turn people away at the door before they saw. and kanaya is like Lalonde Why Are You Fucking With Me On This

today in insane anti-intellectualism: I just saw a post about how aspiring healthcare practitioners shouldn't take classes in biology and chemistry because those subjects are useless and bad. ????

#the op was like “they should have to study literature and the human condition like ME” #and it's like. hmmmm. I can understand where you're coming from here buddy but maybe think for a hot second #about why aspiring doctors have to take biology 101 before they can jump right into microbial genetics and viral pathogenesis or whatever #like. these classes build on each other. you absolutely need a basic understanding of college-level bio and chem before you can do anything #as someone who is very passionate about both science and writing #(I am getting a degree in microbiology and medical HUMANITIES. because I LIKE HUMANITIES) #I hate the rhetoric that certain STEM subjects are lame boring loser classes for closed-minded idiots who can't see the beauty in the world #there is so much beauty in biology and chemistry and physics! the universe is so big and weird and fascinating #but you'll never see that if you have the mentality that YOUR favorite subjects are the Only Ones That Matter Ever #for the record (as someone who's taken a lot of STEM and humanities classes recently) both STEM and humanities majors do this #and it's obnoxious no matter where it's coming from
