I hate how acknowledging unfairness in the world is seen as "childish". Maybe children are right. I don't think you should be proud of the fact that you've become complacent with the state of your miserable existence and took on this loser "it is what it is" mentality. Things can be better.

I deserve to be happy, I am allowed to be happy, nobody I care about will be mad at me for being happy. I am allowed to enjoy things, and have a personality, and be a person

Give me less "being kind requires zero effort" and more "being kind is worth the effort it takes."

Dismiss the idea that you are cursed to suffer for eternity and start bringing little joys into your life NOW. It will build up in time...

when I say “everyone’s on their own timeline”, I mean it.

there’s no right age to learn something by. there’s no right age to be settled down, to move out of home, or to start your own family. there’s no right age to start working, if you work at all. there’s no right age to graduate.

life isn’t a series of boxes you need to tick. do things at your own pace. slow down if you need to. it’s okay.

A slip-up does not mean that you have ruined your progress, you are still working and healing even if you struggle

Hey, it's okay. You've been through a lot, your mind focusing on surviving, not leaving room for much else. You haven't lost yourself, not at all.

you can have a fresh start anytime. you can start again every day. every hour if you need! you’re allowed to put the past behind you.

You're not embarassing. Not every mistake you make is embarassing, not everything you said was embarassing, you're fine. You're just overthinking / self loathing. No one cares.
