Your impact in other people is bigger than you think. Someone still giggles when they think of the funny thing you said. Someone still smiles when they think about the compliment you gave them. Someone silently admires you. The advice you give has made a difference for people…
@exstraight1 when exploring trauma, treat yourself as a friend. be patient. give grace. don't hurt yourself in the name of a fake timeline you can't help but make up on getting "better." remind yourself of your support system and engage with it frequently. manifesting easier times for us both
@exstraight1 and just so you know, there's nothing wrong with having money and purchase anxiety. when you're geared toward survival, living often feels like concession. you are not conceeding. you are breaking through. good luck, and treat yourself with grace (and fun snacks!) (3/3)
@exstraight1 it sounds corny, but give yourself praise and grace. "you did something good for yourself! proud of you!" or something akin, and continue to praise yourself for these purchases. setting aside a Me Money fund in your budget can help you continue to feel in control of the spending
