Anyway, I’m suffering again.
just go enjoy your life,
sometimes i forget how many times i’ve picked myself off the floor, how many times i’ve washed away smudgy makeup and put myself to bed. how many times i’ve said no to something unhealthy. said yes to something good. how many times i’ve treated myself with kindness and patience. i forget how many times i’ve tended to wounds and made peace with my own anger. if i was taking care of a body that was not my own, i’d believe i was doing everything i could. so here’s to remembering that i’m doing the best i can.
Bitch I have sleep apnea

things that will happen to you:
- you will find a new song that you can play on repeat when you can’t sleep
- new people will come into your life unexpectedly and make everything better
- you will get good grades, graduate and find a job that you like
- your heart will heal and you’ll slowly learn to manage the pain
- good things that will make you v happy to be alive
daydreaming is often a coping mechanism for people who are often lonely or don’t receive a good amount of love in their life, so they make people inside their heads that will love them so they can feel the right amount of love.
in addition, people often daydream about different kinds of love they crave in real life.
for example, lonely people will more likely to daydream about having friends, so they can feel like they aren’t lonely in this world.
people who have friends that constantly dissapoint them will more likely to daydream about friends that meet their (sometimes, unrealistic) expectations.
people who aren’t close to their parents will more likely to daydream about better parents that can love them more than their actual parents.
people who aren’t in relationships but crave them will more likely to daydream about it; either making their own partners or imagining their existing crush with them.
a lot of people don’t even realize the pattern until it’s pointed out. you might not daydream about yourself or putting yourself in those situations, but you still daydream about your characters having the love you crave in real life, because you can still feel the feeling.
keep drawing. keep writing. keep making the art you love. keep loving what you make. whatever you create is probably what the world needs right now, no matter how different or unusual it may seem
this is a sign that if you’re not where you want to be, you’re still young and your future is what you make of it. so don’t give up on your dreams thinking that you started too late or you don’t have time. you have plenty of time to master a new skill or chase your daydreams. you still have time and you can do it.
