Remember that the right person will never get tired of you even in the worst times

If you're used to not having your needs met or not having your dreams/desires fulfilled, it's very likely that everytime you wish for something you don't belive it will ever happen to you. Maybe to others, but not to you. It has a lot to do with having been taught (even unconsciously, by always having been told "no") that you're not good enough to have what you want or wish for or need.

But that's not the reality of things. You're worthy, at least to try and believe you can have it. Maybe you won't have it all or you'll have something it in a different form (not everything is made for us and not is the way we wish it to be) but you are totally worth enough to allow yourself to try your best and get it. Life will let you know what it really is for you but don't stop yourself before even trying. Don't ever see not making it as a failure or as a confirmation of your unworthiness: that is not what it is about. Maybe you cannot have one thing but you'll have another (the same way you probably weren't good in math at school but were amazing in PE: it depends, it doesn't mean you're not worthy or lovable). You deserve to gift this chance to yourself. Try to believe a bit more: at least you will be able to say you have tried and sooner or later you'll finally have what you want. It's a matter of building trust, hope and believe in your own worth first and foremost: practice will make it better.

As hard as it is, we have to be careful how we respond when people approach us about something we’ve done that upsets them.

Saying things like “I guess I’m the worst person ever” aren’t okay. Even if you genuinely believe that. It may be unintentional, but these statements can also be manipulative. These statements can put a lot of guilt on the other person to comfort you and it may make them afraid to talk to you in the future.

This can lead to a build up of issues and may result in you losing relationships down the line.

If you’ve done this, or do this, you aren’t a terrible person. And you can do better.

try to not self sabotage with the what ifs and whatnots, even about things that potentially may never be. it just adds to your anxiety and triggers your safety and your self worth

and if you feel not able to realize what is good or not for you and may fear opting for the wrong choice: remember it's your choice. if you have a preference or some values you know you can stick to, you'll know what to choose when the time comes (guts or not guts involved). just try and stay grounded now, especially again if it's something may even never happen

going insane because nimona is a movie about how hate is taught to us. it's a movie about how humans' first instinct is to be loving and caring and hate is something that doesn't come naturally. it's a movie about the difference of being perceived and being seen. it's a movie about wanting to be seen and understood. it's a movie about how hate can be unlearnt and love can be relearnt. it's a movie about how love always comes back to us in the end even though we think we have lost it. it's a movie about a little girl who was demonized to a comically large extent because she was a little different. it's a movie about that little girl finding love and a family. it's also a movie about blowing up bigots and dancing sharks.

You're allowed to take up space and exist, with all of your needs and problems. You are not a burden, you are not annoying, especially if you depend on other people's care in some capacity, people love you and are glad you exist. Your needs are valid.

Sometimes we feel like we're failing because we recognize we're hitting a bad patch again, or that we're falling into bad habits. We feel like this erases all our progress. And it doesn't. Recovery isn't linear. But here's another thing to think about... The fact that you can recognize that you are falling into that bad patch or those patterns is a sign of progress in itself.
