depression is embarrassing because sometimes it makes you miss appts and not return phone calls and when the fog starts to lift you gotta do a whole fuckin apology tour
Hate on her all you want, but animals are drawn to her, kids gravitate to her, strangers confide in her, people feel safe around her, and there’s a reason for it all, energy never lies.
telling your brain “i know you don’t wanna do the thing and it’ll be very uncomfortable for you at first but you can do it buddy. it’ll be fine” is actually surprisingly effective. it sounds too simple but that fuckass organ WILL listen to you if you treat it with kindness lol
Notice how GPS never says, "made a mistake". It simply says, "recalculating route". In this new year, embrace the detours, adjust the course, and keep moving forward.
your relationship with discipline changes so much when you shift doing things from shame to love. from ‘i have to clean’ to realizing i deserve to have a clean home. from ‘i need to work out’ to i deserve to have a healthy body. you deserve to have the best from yourself.
People think grief is crying. But grief is waking up tired. It’s forgetting words. It’s being pulled into memories you didn’t ask to remember. It’s holding back tears in the grocery store because a song or a scent brought them back. Grief isn’t just sadness, it’s the body remembering what the heart can’t let go of.
If your significant other is having a bad mental health day/week/whatever and you dont know how to help, just treat it as if they had the flu. Take care of them, get them their favourite snacks, cook their favourite dinner, put on their favourite movie, make them eat vitamins and
Adult friendships require grace. People are very busy. People are healing. People are growing. People are taking time for self care just like you. Less communication isn’t less love. Check in not out.
I’m not saying that my wife needs to dress in all black and grieve me for a year or anything like that, but I’d like to think she’d stay away from sparkling pantsuits and onstage fireworks displays for, like, a few months at least.
I’d really like to see a journalist just flat out ask Trump “what the fuck is wrong with you” at some point even if it doesn’t move the needle in any concrete way.
The five stages of grief:
-Livestreaming your final moments alone with your murdered hubby's body to Instagram
-Nationally televised funeral complete with pyrotechnics and full glam/hair service
- New gig hosting assassinated hubby's show
-National press tour condemning anyone who questions the official story into hubby's death.
-Merch line
Sounds legit. 👌
They don't argue Because their relationship isn’t built on drama, it’s built on respect and actually being comfortable with each other. Both of them have literally said they’ve never been more themselves than they are in this relationship. Taylor doesn’t have to hide that she’s a lovable dork around Travis (and honestly, he’s the same way). She fits right in with his friends and family. And Travis doesn’t feel like someone’s Instagram clout accessory or somebody’s retirement plan anymore, he finally gets to just be himself too. Do they disagree? Of course. Every couple does. But their “arguments” are like when Travis called her an athlete and she flat-out refused to accept it. That’s the vibe. If you think constant fighting with your partner is “healthy,” instead of what it actually is — toxic — then yeah, maybe talk to a professional.
Healthy relationships don’t run on chaos. They run on compatibility.
