trying to make small talk when ur lowkey super mentally ill is like Yeah my weekend was good how was yours. i killed myself a million times in my head this month
Finish something. Anything. Stop researching, planning, and preparing to do the work and just do the work. It doesn’t matter how good or how bad it is. You don’t need to set the world on fire with your first try. You just need to prove to yourself that you have what it takes to produce something.
There are no artists, athletes, entrepreneurs, or scientists who became great by half-finishing their work. Stop debating what you should make and just make something.
A Dostoyevsky line has never hit me so hard
“You sensed that you should be following a different path, a more ambitious one, you felt that you were destined for other things but you had no idea how to achieve them and in your misery you began to hate everything around you.”
the passive suicidal ideation thoughts in my brain have been so loud the past few daysfr, we need to break the stigma of talking about this. these thoughts are what some of us have to experience daily! i’m fuckin tired!
Some people in your life have never seen you at your full capacity. They met you in a hard season, a transitional moment, a version of you still being built. Do not let their limited experience of you become your ceiling. You are more than the chapter they witnessed.
