reading heartstopper makes me both happy and sad

Happy because duh it's heartstopper how could that make me not happy??? Have you read it??? It's perfect, everyone should read heartstopper

Sad because i never had what Nick and Charlie or any of the other characters had, i also didn’t go to partys, i barely did any of those "typical teenage things" i went to school, got good grades, came home, lost myself in fandoms (which i don't regret) and wished to be someone else, now i'm in my 20s and still have no sense of self

Like in the beginning of solitaire Michael asks Tori who she is and she says nothing and i relate to that so deeply which is lowkey embarrassing cause she's 16...idk i guess i just hoped to at least act like a mentally ill person in their early 20s by now and not a 16 year old mentally ill person

#seriously how disappointing #i didn’t even manage the bare minimum #the bar was on the floor #i'm so cringe #especially for posting this #living in the past #heartstopper #i'm lowkey jealous of nick and charlie #charlie spring #nick nelson #tori spring #solitaire #alice oseman #osemanverse

a part of me is stuck in the past

and most days, it's all of me

Forgive me for wanting things to go back to the way they were before. I just don't know how to live in the present.

why does it feel like i’m the only one sad about growing up. what makes me stagnate in the past while others live so fully in the present. why am i the only one who cries about my sisters new last name, what makes me feel like my life is on pause until my best friend comes home for the summer, why does my throat hurt thinking about how my room will one day be reserved for guests, what makes me long to return to my first summer job, why do i still miss the boy i loved at 16, what has me yearning for the chaotic nights in my grandmas backyard i’ll never get back, why must my heart ache while putting 2 less forks on the dinner table, what makes me so different from the others, why can they move on so easily while i am trapped living in the fantasy my mind calls the past

what a strange thing it is to have your heart in one place and your body in another

i feel like i'm living in the past because everyone has moved on with their lives and i'm still just..here, stuck from the fear of change that keeps me chained

#i don't like where i am currently but i'm afraid where i go will be worse #i feel the fear tightening it's hold around my neck #i hate change #i'm so scared #living in the past #relatable #shitpost #fear

It doesn't matter what they think of you. All that matters is what you think about yourself.

i am stuck in the past

a past that doesn't last

for everyone but myself

everybody puts it on a shelf

of memories long forgotten

they think it's rotten

but i keep on living there

i don't even know exactly where

but I hold onto it

desperately

until i get hit

by the truth inatvertently

that that time will never come back

there's just too much that i lack

no matter how much i hope

but still i keep on clinging onto that rope

"If you are depressed, you are living in the past. If you are anxious, you are living in the future. If you are at peace, you are living in the present"

Laozi, also romanized as Lao Tzu and various other ways, was a semi-legendary ancient Chinese Taoist philosopher, credited with writing the Tao Te Ching. Laozi is a Chinese honorific, generally translated as "the Old Master".
