why am i so unhappy at times... i look at my life and nothing is completely awful and there’s not too much room to complain and i’m grateful for everything i have but my brain just won’t shut the fuck up with the sadness
The root of all those late night walks and coffeeshop hits, the stroll along Dangwa and the good midnight meals. Love yourself more to notice that something’s wrong.
as soon as you feel that depression kicking in...
move.
literally move.
go outside and run around, dance, exercise, move your arms all weird like a jelly fish... idc how you do it but move. get your heart rate going and your body moving asap
I want to apologize to myself for constantly submerging in a state of panic, for allowing myself to self-destruct for so many years. There is a person inside of me who deserves kindness. —Brianna Pastor #NoteToSelf

Feel it. The thing that you don’t want to feel. Feel it, and be free.

Most things will be okay eventually, but not everything will be. Sometimes you’ll put up a good fight and lose. Sometimes you’ll hold on really hard and realize there is no choice but to let go. Acceptance is a small, quiet room. -@CherylStrayed
