Reasons to not check their socials
•it keeps them relevant when they don’t deserve to be
•they’re up to their same old bs antics that lucky for you, you don’t have to deal with anymore!
•seeing what their up to and saying will make you feel worse and potentially spiral and that’s not worth it
•what do you really get out of checking? reminders of them you’re desperately trying to heal from? Them even more in your head when you want to move on?
ITS NOT WORTH IT. It never is. Choose your own peace and don’t check. You’re not missing out🕊️

Still wearing pajamas and warmed only by a cardigan, socks, and a blanket around his thighs, Whumpee sat in an armchair on the terrace and was propped up by pillows on either side. Beside him, Caretaker sat with him, accompanying him in a sweater and long skirt. The air still felt cold, even though it was already 9 a.m. Maybe the influence of early autumn.
Besides the two, there was a round table with two bowls of potato soup with thin slices of crispy beef and two glasses of water. Whumpee's favorite soup he started eating today after being able to only eat watery soup for a while.
Whumpee sat facing directly towards the lake, with the forest several tens of meters from the cabin where they were. His gaze was calm and peaceful, as if he no longer had any burdens to carry. Occasionally, Whumpee receives a bite of his soup from Caretaker who patiently helps him eat.
"Want to go there?" Caretaker offered after wiping Whumpee's mouth. "We can go to the lake this afternoon when it's warmer, if you want."
Caretaker returned to feeding Whumpee, saying, "It's not good to stay inside all the time. You need a new atmosphere and a breath of fresh air other than on this terrace."
"I like it in here," Whumpee answered after swallowing his soup. "But I guess it wouldn't be bad to go to the lake there. What's there?"
"Not much, but I thought you'd like it," Caretaker stroked the back of Whumpee's hand. "We can see beautiful views. Now and then, some people come to fish or boat. Freshly caught fish from the lake tastes delicious. There are lots of rabbits there. There are very beautiful flower fields when spring comes. If you're lucky, you can see a deer or a fox peeking shyly from the opposite forest."
"That sounds interesting. I think I'll want to go there later," said Whumpee. "I'm surprised; I never knew you had a cabin here."
"This belonged to my late parents. When I was little, we often came here to vacation and relax from the hustle and bustle of the city," explained Caretaker with a smile, and she returned to feeding soup to Whumpee. "A suitable place for your recovery, right? Quiet, peaceful, comfortable, and you don't have to worry about anything here."
Whumpee smiled and held Caretaker's hand. "Yes, it feels very comfortable. Thank you."
Caretaker smiled and grabbed Whumpee's hand back. "Come on, let's finish your breakfast, take medicine, clean up, then let's get ready to go to the lake!" said Caretaker cheerfully.
"You say that, but you haven't touched your food at all. You just keep feeding me," protested Whumpee. "Your soup is getting cold."
Caretaker laughed, "How about it, huh? I'm full just watching you eat like this."
"What answer is that?" Whumpee protested again but didn't refuse when a spoonful of soup was brought to his mouth. "Eat too, Caretaker."
Caretaker laughed and started feeding herself soup, making Whumpee smile widely. Caretaker feels very grateful for simple moments like this. Seeing Whumpee get healthier and hearing about the good progress of the problems they were having with Whumper. Indeed, it's not every day that they feel calm because now and then the Team Leader or other members come and give them lots of news, or they provide updates on the tasks that the Team Leader has given them. Hey, even though Caretaker and Whumpee are far from the Team, they still carry out their duties well. Except for Whumpee, who still needs a lot of rest.

Hi!
I decided to start this blog because I wanted somewhere to put my thoughts.
As of three days ago, I have officially been on sick leave from uni and my job because of (ADHD/Autistic) burnout. It feels weird and I feel incredibly guilty but I haven't felt awake in years. So now I'm in this weird state where I try to figure out what I'm capable of and what is actually taking up spoons. For now, my task is to figure out how I can minimize the amount of decision-making in my morning routine to make it less taxing and exhausting.
I'm curious to see how it goes.
Thank you for reading, you are doing great!

It takes time to recover, often more time than we wish it would take, with a lot more effort. But it is worth it. It also teaches you how strong you are. Let this be a lesson of love and appreciation for yourself. Being resilient isn't easy, it isn't glamorous like in the movies, it isn't always recognized by others, but please give yourself the credit for all the work you put on yourself and realize how powerful you are for doing so against all odds. Even if other people don't notice this, please try to recognize the effort it takes to be you and appreciate the things you do to get better while you're recovering. You don't have to feel like you are perfect in your recovery, or the best at what you are doing, but please recognize the effort, give yourself credit for trying. Sometimes being strong is our only option, so try to be less judgmental of yourself when you're trying your best to make it through.

I know that oversharing about your mental health and trauma on the internet is generally ill-advised, but listen:
As someone who writes essays and fiction with his heart on his sleeve, nothing means more to me than hearing that my work made someone else feel less alone.
I write a lot of heavy shit. It's my way of processing a lifetime worth of grief and working my way through the ringer of recovery. Most of the time, I assume I'm doing little more than screaming into the digital void, and honestly, that's fine with me. I never expected anything more.
So when someone comments on or DMs me about a piece of mine, telling me how reading it made them feel seen, or heard, or less isolated in otherwise extremely isolating circumstances, I take that to heart. I etch those words into the walls of my mind, and I make damn sure that these folks who had the courage to share their pain with me didn't do so for nothing.
Tumblr media
I have a folder on my desktop of screen shots. Every comment, every message, every story you share with me — I save them. I often anticipate that my words will be lost in the sea of online content, but when someone takes the time to be vulnerable with me in response to my work, their words will not. I save them. I return to them when I need reminding why I do this shit in the first place.
I know it's corny as hell, but I don't care. I mean it:
If you have ever reached out to me and shared your story, your feelings, your pain — thank you. I have not forgotten.

One of the most incredible things about recovery rn & getting past this addiction has been like, idk. I’m learning how to feel again , and I don’t want to be numb to things anymore. I’ve listened to music more in the past 2 weeks than i have in like, a long time. Sometimes I felt like I couldn’t enjoy things like music without being buzzed somehow. It was a really dry and fucked up way to live and I didn’t realize how sick I had become and how many things I didn’t do anymore that I used to love.
I know its still gonna be up and down bc Im still going through tapering and withdrawal, I still get relatively sick and anxious in the mornings. But I’m learning a lot about how to take care of myself for real.
I think I really, really didn’t like myself for a very long time. But I’m getting better.
