Honestly, this might sound cheesy but make art. Bring the random words together that does not mean anything to anyone but you. Call it a poem. It is a poem. Cut out pictures from grocery leaflets, paste them on the same paper. Draw dogs with wings, people with wrong anatomies, draw something ugly. It’s fucking art. It belongs to you. You’re the God of it. Write raw words coming from your heart, paint vague shit only you can name, just do it. Art is a way to survive. You can survive. Don’t forget it.
this post is for anyone who feels a little lost right now. maybe you don’t know what your path in life is yet. maybe you hate your job. maybe you’re still in school and you’ve changed your major three times. maybe you’re confused about what it is that you want. maybe you know exactly what you want but have no idea how to get it.
you will figure it out. you are not dead yet. you are going to figure your shit out. i believe in you.
real fucking talk. take it from someone whose been there, if what you want in your heart is genuine, the universe makes it happen. more often than not, you’re the only one holding yourself back. so take the hard steps, crumble down every wall that’s giving you a false sense of security and let the light back into your life. shine bby’s. it’ll be hard, it’ll always be hard, but what’s worth having is worth fighting for.
LET YOUR ART BE UGLY!!! LET YOUR WRITING BE BAD!!! DANCE OFFBEAT!!! SING OFF KEY!!! LIFE IS TOO SHORT TO LET YOUR FEAR OF NOT BEING GOOD ENOUGH PREVENT YOU FROM LEARNING AND ENJOYING NEW THINGS!!!
we should start telling trans boys and trans men that it’s okay and valid to be feminine. your femininity doesn’t make you less of a boy. your femininity doesn’t mean you’re “faking” your gender. you’re a real boy, a real man. good day ✨💘
god theres all these strategies out there for combating executive dysfunction but what i really want is for people to acknowledge that no, sometimes you just cant beat it and you need to rest and try again later or get someone else to do it for you.
i feel like such a failure when i give up. i need to know its ok and its not my fault my brain doesnt let me do things most of the time, its not me being too weak to fight back.
This is super important, because you can have ALL the tips and tricks, but somedays your brain is more powerful. That’s ok. There will be days where you just can not fight it. Days were every chain breaks and you just can not hold on.
On those days wrap yourself in a warm and comfy blanket and watch Netflix.
It’s the loose the battle to win the war idea. The important day is to get up the next day and try again. It’s a lifelong war and there are days where you just loose a battle.
