Maybe it's just me, but when people generally talk about being emotional, they tend to leave out anger.
Why? Anger is an emotion, and it's valid. It's not a bad thing, to feel angry.
You never know why someone is angry. And yes, it matters how one deals with their rage. At a certain level, maybe what we soaked up as kids... it turns out it's not quite healthy. But here's the thing. Some people never get the opportunity to know that's unhealthy. They aren't aware that there is another way. Not everyone has access to that, and if something works, hey, why knock it?
Plus when you're in a certain predicament (especially if it's prolonged), you may not be aware that what you're doing is a coping skill, and you may not know (or care) that said coping skill could be unhealthy. You're just focused on one thing; survival.
Speaking from experience, if you do find yourself out of that situation, here are a few things you come to realize:
How fucked up your situation was
How the fuck you survived
The odds of you getting out were slimmer than you originally thought
Your new environment requires a new set of skills but you just can't shake the "old" ones
Learning that not everyone has these skills (because they didn't need them)
Others won't understand your habits
Potentially discovering some habits aren't healthy so you try searching for new ones
The search takes longer than you thought and again those ingrained habits won't leave you

"Sadness and tears aren't signs of weaknesses, they're signs of humanity and signs of a beating heart. Don't be afraid to show tears. Show you can love. Show you care."

The Old Disney Princess Cry Method
Artica: Miss Crawly, why is there a stack of Disney Princess VHS tapes nestled in the naughty corner? And what’s more, why did you leave Pocahontas out of that stack?
Miss Crawly: Because she’s the only “princess” from the VHS era who did NOT throw herself into the closest furniture and cry dramatically! Porsha has clearly leaned too much from those videos!

I think its super okay to cry on valentine’s day. its a difficult day for a lot of people whether you’re lonely or in hard times in your relationship or you’re just not feeling reciprocated, loved, appreciated, or you’re confused. I’ll cry with you! Actually, I already am crying right now. It do be hard out there so I say let the tears fall if that’s how you feel. Just remember to stay hydrated, and you’re not alone in this.
So, I’ve decided to share a poem I wrote a little while back just for anyone who needs to be reminded that it gets better. (im an amateur, bear with me)
❤️❤️❤️❤️
(poetry under the cut)
One day you’ll feel loved.
You’ll find your other half.
They’ll have you elated as every breath takes you down a path
Of passion and endearment
A cold night fades to warmth
As love dances across your skin
Never again scorned.
One day you’ll feel happy.
You’ll meet a special one
Who plans picnic dates and parties underneath the sun.
They’ll tell you sweet nothings and hold your heart high.
Never again will you question
Are they going to leave
Or should I?
One day you’ll feel peace.
It rests on the tongue and tastes of sweet kindness, care and compassion.
Your time will be desired, wanted, and you’ll never fear retraction.
I ask that you breathe and hope
Don’t be too quick to stumble down a slope
of misery and cold blood.
Because one day, my heart, you will feel loved.
💕💕💕💕
