bro, a lot of men NEED to go to therapy not just for their own sake but for the sake of every person they have power over in their lives

I’d love to relax but it’s just not realistic

my whole personality is nostalgia , actually,

third base is when you both discuss your emotional trauma with one another 

My home will be a home with no loud anger, no explosive rage, no slamming doors or breaking glass, no name calling, shaming or blackmail. My home will be gentle, it will be warm. It will keep my loved ones safe. No fear, no hurt and no worries. I may come from a broken and twisted place but I will build something whole and safe. I’ll sing in the shower again, cook with a smile and dance in all the rooms. I will heal.

there is no old self to get back to there’s a new u to create n nurture

Destroy the idea that being optimistic is synonymous with being naïve.
