✨I Hope You Feel Good Soon✨ [Mental Health] [Some Positivity For Sad Days] [You're Amazing] [This Time Too Shall Pass]
Added 2020-03-09 20:25:28 +0000 UTCHey Teacups -
I just wanted to state the obvious (because sometimes it's not so obvious)...
From one internet stranger to another, it's okay to feel really shitty sometimes, perhaps even more than sometimes, often or even predominantly.
It's okay. It's normal. You're not a freak, you're not weak. You're a person and life can be really hard.
I'll be completely honest with you, the past few weeks I've seriously just wanted to shave my head and disappear. I'm not sure I'll ever not feel like this occasionally, but I know that it's worth sticking around for the times when I don't feel like this.
And so are you.
Please don't convince yourself differently. You matter, you deserve the good times, and they will come.
Be safe, be kind, and give yourself a god damn break.
You're a good one.
Best wishes,
Tea
✨P.S. I'm so glad I live in a time when we can say these things. Even though the world is cruel and unfair, this is still the best time in human history to be alive.✨

2020-03-09 22:38:17 +0000 UTCI have so much appreciation for you, Tea. As hard as my brain tries to argue against what you say sometimes, I do my best to take it to heart. I haven't been doing too well over the past few months but your positivity has been a factor in keeping me going, for sure. That, and warmer weather is coming so I can actually get out and do the things I love. I do feel stuck in a rut regarding life, though, and where I'm headed. Not that I'm headed in a bad direction, just that I'm not really going where I want to be. Just a straight line, really. Anyway, before I keep blabbing on... Anything you say to us, for us, right back at you. Your positivity and affirmations definitely lift me up a bit during the daily grind, I really appreciate it 💜☺️💜

2020-03-09 20:47:24 +0000 UTCI really care about this statement. There are so many people that say to those who have permanent illnesses or chronic issues that "You're such an inspiration" or "I wish I was as strong as you!" Now don't get me wrong. Their hearts are in the right place. However, when people say that, at least for me, it makes me feel that I have to put myself on a pedestal and I have to keep being this "awesome image of strength and resilience", which makes me worse. What I love is to say to someone: "You know what? I'm not having a good week. Or I'm not okay today. Or this sucks. But you know what? That's okay for things to suck." Then others start opening up and even though life is hard, conversations like these make being in the moment feel that life is a bit easier, even just for a minute. Thanks Tea, love you and your honesty and openness ♥️

2020-03-09 20:38:32 +0000 UTCShe's absolutely right. I've spent the past week cleaning up my neighborhood after tornados demolished us. I kept fighting these feelings of guilt for being upset. After all, my house was wrecked but it was still there. Not many around me even had that. I kept making this chain of negativity, sadness making guilt which lead to anger at myself. Rinse and repeat. Felt like I was being dragged down into a vicious endless circle and as a result became nigh useless to the people I was trying to help. It took an old man walking by my house and offering his condolences and help that I finally broke out of it. We had all got hurt and the only person measuring was me. Yeah, I got off fucking light compared to some but that didn't make my loss any less meaningful. Just because your pain isn't the world ending variety, doesn't mean it's any less valid. Your allowed to hurt and grieve no matter how insignificant your problems might seem. Your a human being and deserve the right to feel the way you do without ever having to qualify it. No one can tell you how to feel, not even yourself.
