Sometimes in life, you’re not going to have a clear goal. It will seem like everyone around you knows exactly what they’re doing. You may feel aimless, but you aren’t. There is something special in not knowing where your life will take you. There is possibility. Don’t be scared of the unknown. Embrace it. You will find your path eventually. But right now, it’s okay just to wander.

a gentle reminder that healing takes time. you need to be patient with yourself with the process. forgive yourself when you relapse into old behaviours. encourage yourself to get out of bed, avoid harmful ways to cope and suggest a healthy coping mechanism, as if a friend was encouraging you. remind yourself to drink water, to eat fruits, journal, stop dwelling on things that don’t matter anymore, and see everything good in the world. it takes time and you’re in pain but you’re trying, and you’re alive and growing a little every day, and that’s all that counts.
