I really wish I can put a distance between myself and all the mentally, physically and emotionally draining things and people this coming new year. I really hope 2023 will show me some empathy and allow me to live for once. That's my Christmas and New Year's wish.
What do you all wish or hope for?

Don’t thank me for kindness, praise and reassurance that the important people in your life should be providing you with daily.
You’re not a burden, and there’s only one of you in this world. You’re special. Remember that.

Some days, I wish I knew how to give up. I wish I knew how to stop and just... not do this anymore. But I don't know how. All that pain instilled such a drive in me, a sense that quitting is not an option. It's been a blessing and a burden. But I'll persist, because honestly I don't know how to stop.

Not healing from trauma and suppressing it is like… being in a store and suddenly huge storm comes in. And yes it’s noon now and yes the store is warm and cozy and yes you can stay there but eventually it will be night. And you wanna go home so badly. It will get dark. The store will close and you’ll be kicked into the storm anyways. But if you accepted tools to pass the storm (it’s a store, grab an umbrella!) and walked out there, you’d realise all the thunder and lightning are far away from you. They can’t harm you. You will get wet, absolutely, you’ll get cold and you’ll feel terrible at times on your way home, but eventually, you’ll be home. You WILL be home. Safe. Where you can dry up. Eat. Sleep. You’ll be safe. So how about we grab that umbrella and make our way home before it’s night?

“Its easy to blame everyone else” no no, im blaming the right person
I’m blaming the one who introduced bullying to the neighboring kids. I’m blaming the one who made it popular to “pick on” me. I’m blaming the one who had the “bright idea” to lock me out or in places. I’m blaming the one who manipulated everyone and lied her way out of punishment. I’m blaming the one who made me cry myself to sleep. I’m blaming the one who peer pressured my sister away from me. I’m blaming the one who began the eight years of torture.

i swear if you people start uwuifying OCD like you did with ADHD and autism I'm going to start attacking
#the general idea of what OCD is already so fucking wrong and harmful#if you start being like 'oh my little meow meow is so OCD' or 'its not a disorder its just a different way of thinking uwu'#I'M GOING TO FUCKING KILL#ALL OF MY EARLIEST CHILDHOOD MEMORIES FROM AGE 3 AND UP ARE OF HAVING PANIC ATTACKS#PLEASE GO FUCK YOURSELVES THIS IS A MISERABLE FUCKING DISORDER ITS NOT CUTE ITS NOT QUIRKY ITS THE REASON I HAD GRAY HAIR AS A TEENAGER#i saw this like 'i let the intrusive thoughts win' isn't something people use all the time for like dying their fucking hair#its exhausting how many people what to be all 'mental illness needs to be more accepted'#and then in the next sentence want to deny that your mental illness is actually harmful to you and doesn't negatively affect you#and its just because society doesn't accept your different way of thinking uwu#NO I LITERALLY WOULD HAVE KILLED MYSELF AS A TEENAGER IF SOMEONE HAD CONVINCED ME THAT MY MENTAL ILLNESS WAS NORMAL AND FINE#figuring out that something was Wrong with my brain was like the best moment of my life#and this 'no you just think differently don't try to change' attitude may be helpful in SOME CASES#but that shit needs to me pulled back on A LOT online because that framing can be extremely harmful to some people (like me)#knowing exactly what is wrong with my brain is literally the only way I'm able to not let it affect me#and it not affecting me is literally the only way I can function and live happily#like you understand that some people do genuinely have things wrong with them#and telling them they don't is beyond cruel

ask yourself today: do you really like them? or they just enable your attachment traits in a new but unhealthy way? and you don't realise it until you gave it the right amount of thought.

For new years, just a quick reminder that:
1. Even if you don’t love yourself, you are still worthy of being loved, of being loved by someone else. Your sense of worth doesn’t dictate how other people should feel about you and just because you don’t love yourself, does NOT mean you are undeserving of love or incapable of loving someone just as much, platonically or otherwise.
2. Having boundaries does NOT make you an asshole, it makes you a human being.
3. Being seen can make a significant impact on your life, and there is absolutely no shame if that someone happens to be a doctor, a therapist, a psychiatrist, etc. There is no shame in feeling that something’s wrong and there is no shame in seeking out help. There is NO shame in asking to be seen.
4. Addictions and poor mental health does not make you a terrible person. You are loved healthy just the same as you are loved in the process of getting there.
5. Worst thing you could do to yourself is not let go. You can’t change the past, you can’t change that person. And it’s okay to let go, it’s okay to accept it. I know it’s hard because holding onto that feeling and desperation helps you feel in control of your own pain, but I promise you, you are allowed to let it go, your trauma will be just as valid even if it no longer holds your every move captive.
6. It’s okay to let yourself just be. You shouldn’t put high expectations on yourself, because you’re not good enough for them, but because you are simply incapable of those things at the moment. At the moment you only need to breathe and that’s okay. And you should allow yourself to just be and to just breathe in that moment, until you grow to do those big things once you grow strong enough.
7. You are the most important person in your life. No, you are not egotistical for loving yourself, you are not selfish for taking care of yourself. You live with yourself every single hour of every single day, you should be your number 1 priority and NO that does not make you selfish. That makes you self aware, and simply, human.
8. You are allowed to forgive yourself for things you’ve done. You are allowed to seek out people, you are allowed to apologise, and whatever their answer might be, you are allowed to move on.
9. You are allowed to not forgive people just the way they are allowed to not forgive you. And that’s okay. That, however, does not make you a terrible person. And that doesn’t mean you have to let that hatred consume you. You are allowed to not forgive people and then move on. That’s your privilege. You are allowed to let terrible things go even if you don’t forgive them.
10. You should eat without shame. “But I’m fat” doesn’t matter, you should eat. “But I already ate today” you should eat. “But I overate today” and if you’re still hungry, you should eat. “But I haven’t exercised” you should eat. “But I hate myself” you should eat. Food is not a punishment, love yourself enough to nourish your body and let yourself enjoy it. Because you deserve to eat. No ‘ifs’ or ‘buts’. You deserve it.
11. You should be kinder to yourself. Wether you think you’re a terrible person or not, you should be kinder to yourself. If you don’t have enough energy to love yourself just yet, try to be a little kinder to yourself and your body. First step to being a better person is realising that you are not an unlovable monster, you are human who made mistakes, and when you love yourself enough you can help yourself make amends that you want. First step is love for yourself, once you get up and no longer beat yourself, then you see all the opportunities you have to be a better person. Because you absolutely can be better, even if you fail (because you will and that’s okay) you can try again. No shame in starting over, no shame in faltering. That, again, does not make you a terrible person; that makes you human.
12. You deserve kind, beautiful things. You deserve to be handled with love, cared for. I know you don’t believe that, so let me say it one more time, because I mean it with my entire soul: you deserve love, kindness and beauty. You wouldn’t be able to see beauty in things that you do if you didn’t carry it in your heart. You see beauty in terrible things, and what does that say about you? That you carry it in your soul, because if you didn’t, you would be incapable of seeing it. Atoms recognise familiar atoms, your soul is more beautiful than you give yourself credit for.
I don’t know you, and I probably never will. And I don’t care. But let me tell you that a random stranger cares about you. That if you genuinely need someone to talk to, I WILL listen. My DM’s are always open and you can reach out if you need someone to just listen. Why? Because you’re worth it. You survived another whole ass year, you managed to get yourself out of darkness that would’ve consumed most. You are a damn good soldier, don’t let your battle scars drag you down, allow the sun shine on your path. And if you can’t see the sun yet, follow the moon. Be kind, fail, be loud, be humble, be cringe, LET YOURSELF BE.
With love,
Will x
