My brain: You have so many tight deadlines. So many things on your weekly schedule. So many important jobs. You have to get important work done!!!

Sometimes self-care is, actually, NOT getting onto the computer and little treats and watching youtube videos. Sometimes those things are self-care, but sometimes they're also avoidant behaviors.

Sometimes self care is waking up and just. Fucking getting in the car. And driving to the bank. And the store. And buying the cat litter. And changing the cat boxes you've been avoiding because your brains been stuck in a hole. And picking up the trash you've been piling up. And getting a load into the wash. And mowing the lawn before the village council sends you a formal complaint and potential-fines warning.

Like its hard and annoying to do because it sucks. It sucks so much. But if I don't start working on this pile of bullshit I've let build up because it stinks and i was stuck in deer-in-headlights mode, I risk letting it turn into fuckery. I do not have the patience for fuckery that I once - foolishly! - thought I had.

Recovery is different for everyone. Just because someone else’s recovery journey involves certain steps doesn’t mean yours needs to involve those same steps. Recovery is unique to us and it may take time to figure out what works for you. Don’t give up.

I just wanted to say that I’m proud of you, if you ignored feelings of hurting yourself even once, if you decided to talk to a friend, said yes to an invitation, if you pushed yourself to get out of bed and go to class, went for a run, studied, said hi to someone, did something you’re anxious about, shower or eat a good meal despite having no energy; if you took a step to take care of yourself today, rather than isolate or ruin yourself despite having no motivation or self worth, keep going because you’re doing good; i know how hard it is and I’m proud of you

Plenty of highly intelligent people end up getting sucked in to cults because they just wanted people to hang out with. There are antivaxxer nurses. Your ability to act on empirical reason breaks down fast if your social and emotional needs aren't being met.

forceful reminder as we come up to easter weekend that you were not born bad. that it is good that you are alive. that you were not born to be evil, or born to die for the cause, or born to be broken.
