These are some of my go-to mantras/affirmations for anxiety, panic attacks, stressful or triggering situations and even daily as a maintenance activity. I hope these provide help or solace to anyone who needs these. Please feel free to use, edit, adapt, or even add to the ones I have listed here.
As scary as this feeling is, I know I can get through this.
I am safe
This is a feeling and that is valid, but I know I am okay
I may feel out of control, but I still control my actions
I am more than my anxiety
The past is over, the present is in my control, the future will be okay.
I will calm down
I can calm myself down
I am capable of solving the problems that come my way.
I am not doing this on my own
This feeling is temporary, I will feel better soon.
My brain is just trying to keep me safe
This stress will pass
This trigger will pass
These feelings will pass
I will be okay
This is not the end of the world.
I have survived, and I will do it again
This will not be how I feel forever
I have felt this before and it does end
I am safe and in control
I can relax my body
I will persevere
I am capable of being calm
I am allowed to make mistakes
One mistake will not define me
One bad day will not define me
I can and I will push through
I can do this
All those who are struggling with stress and anxiety right now: Please now that you are stronger than these feelings, you can get through this and you deserve to feel safe and calm. You are not alone, you are deserving and capable of a calmer, happier life. Keep fighting!
instead of saying “let people hate religion” say “let people hate christianity” because i promise you that the first one sets off big sirens in every jewish and muslim person’s head.
I’m only here to share some news. IDK if y’all saw but Pfizer announced this morning that their interim data on the vaccine is showing 90% efficacy. That’s better than most flu vaccines and puts it up there with childhood vaccines like measles. It’s a two-dose vaccine. There is still a lot to be learned, such as how long the protection lasts. If it does become a public use vaccine, it may be seasonal like the flu vaccine, and it may still be a couple years until we truly defeat this monster, but this is some optimistic news after such a long hard road.
It’s an mRNA vaccine, a type of vaccine that has never been used, so this would be another feat of science.
There’s still a lot to find out before this vaccine goes public (if it does), but I think some hopeful news this November is worth sharing.
Super cool life update, if anyone remembers who I am!
So, since I was last properly active on here a *lot* has happened. I mean, a lot. I dropped out of college (oops) and I sorted out a lot of other problems. Still in the midst of solving some, but that's okay! Things are just moving on, trying to do the best I can in life. Came back to Tumblr because I'm rather nostalgic and all :P
God I was at that restaurant in Annapolis yesterday that serves those 4 lbs milkshakes and these two dudes were just finishing one together and people were asking them for tips and they were like “you have to get like mint chocolate chip or something because if there’s no texture it gets too boring to finish” and all I could keep thinking was that it can only be a matter of time before some god wipes this town off the map and we will have earned it with our disgusting hubris
