(or for anyone with any other condition where you struggle with impulse control)

Anyone who struggles with low impulse control knows how hard it is. Being able to control your impulses and actually make decisions you'll be happy with in the longterm is so liberating and amazing.

💫 Here are some of my tips that worked for me:

1. Think about the worst possible outcome of your actions and if you're okay with it: I know it's hard to think clearly when you're feeling impulsive, but try making it a habit to picture the worst possible outcome of your actions. Then ask yourself, would you be okay with that outcome?

2. Stop and ask yourself questions first. Practise stopping and asking yourself questions before you do something impulsive. Ask yourself if your actions are actually going to hurt you or help you. Impulsive actions can be really compelling by making you believe that they're a good thing and they're going to fix things or make them better. Ask yourself if that's actually true of the action you want to do, or if it would be more likely to hurt you.

3. Breathe. Take deep breaths. Do breathing exercises. I know you're most likely being triggered, which is why you want to act impulsively. Something painful in you is being triggered, and breathing exercises can help you to calm down.

4. Do the opposite of what you feel like doing. In DBT, this is called Opposite Action. Practise doing the opposite of what you feel like impulsively doing-- instead of confronting someone, walk away. Instead of drinking, decide not to. I know practising opposite action isn't easy, but it can be good for us to try doing the opposite of what we feel like doing in the moment.

Even if you believe that those things will help, practise doing the opposite of them anyway, because your beliefs in that moment about what might help may not be accurate or reliable.

5. Imagine there's an actual physical pause button and you're hitting it when you feel impulsiveness coming on.

6. Acknowledge that your feelings about the situation may not match the reality of the situation. Try to remember that impulsive urges skew your perception of a situation radically and make extreme uncalled-for reactions seem justifiable. What you’re feeling is not the reality. It feels real but it’s not reality.

7. Remind yourself that impulsive behaviour is usually ineffective. You believe it’s going to get you results you want because you get to deal with the issue NOW rather than later but it’s an ineffective action. It’s only effective at creating instant gratification but not problem solving, and it actually can lead to worsening things, so think about what outcome you're trying to achieve here.

8. Your long-term self will be so proud of you if you show self restraint. Although there is no instant gratification, the long term gratification is healthier and happier relationships and mental and emotional health.

9. Make a list of the types of impulsive behaviours you have so you always know what to look out for. Make sure to include things you didn’t think to consider as an impulsive problem or you may end up repeating it when the situation arises. Can include self-harm, anger and volatility, drinking, etc.

10. Always be aware that this is a problem that exists 24/7 even when you're not thinking about it or you haven't done it in a while. Otherwise, you may end up doing it again, by believing that its not an issue anymore.

My take on Starboy concept ft Clawd Wolf as a Model.

There was a lot of conversation on twitter about the lack of a black disney prince so I made Starboy black. His name is Nasir which means helper in Arabic. I wanted to keep his design simple but changed his tunic to a kaftan.

Lore:

Nasir, a human and "fairy" hybrid, always felt isolated from the other fairies. He wants to be out there exploring planets and fighting evil. Unfortunately he is stuck babysitting a newborn star. Yes I'm keeping canon star because why get rid of one when you can have both?

Anyways, while the other fairies are away, Nasir intercepts a message from Earth. It's from a teenage girl begging for help. None of the other fairies are interested. In their minds, Earth is a backwater world with selfish people who cause their own problems. See, a long time ago, humans and stars coexisted in peace until humans got greedy and started wishing for more elaborate gifts, causing wars and widespread laziness. As a result, the wishing stars left but not without leaving a few traces of magic behind.

Wanting to prove himself, and because he couldn't sit by and let someone's prayers go unanswered, Nasir sneaks away to Earth. In this timeline Asha was already working for Magnifico when she finds out that he had been keeping wishes for years, but because he and Amaya are so beloved nobody believes her. Nasir offers to help her in exchange of teaching him about humanity.

Living in Rosas nasir begins to realize that despite their flaws most of them are decent people and just want to have a stable life. They see rosas as a paradise completely unaware that its rulers view them as cattle. Nasir finds his people with The Teens and he gains a better appreciation for Baby Star.

At one point, Nasir discovers that his parents stories were true! One if his ancestors had a relationship with a fairy. Even more surprising is that his ancestor was the original ruler of the islands that would become Rosas until Magnifico overthrew him and made it seem like the islands were already abandoned before he "found it". However before the prince died he had the royal mage hide the spell book, which Magnifico would find and use it to siphon people's wishes. The prince's lover left earth with their newborn baby, becoming Nasir's great grandmother.

Nasir is forced to reveal his secret when Magnifico threatens to kill Asha's family. We also learn that Amaya was in one his plan the whole time. This leads to Nasir getting captured and Asha banished. Thankfully Baby Star and Valentino reminds them of their faith and Asha manages to escape banishment and gathers her entire neighborhood to fight with her. Sabino rouses the people with his music, and a riot ensues.

In the final battle Magnifico turns himself into Cthulu and starts to suck up the sky but Nasir and Asha manage with a little help from the wishing stars themselves. Magnifico explodes into a supernova, Amaya is reduced to an old crone having lost her magic. The fairies arrive and are impressed by Nasir's work. Nasir decides to stay on Earth but instead of becoming king he makes Asha the new princess. The film with Asha's coronation a few months later and Nasir, now the royal astronomer, dancing with her.

Abel redesign edits

I've decided to merge canon abel with the one I made before his design was revealed. That had been a LONG time ago! BEFORE I had intended for him to be the hazbin's equivalent of the sandman with a herd of counting sheep. That's why he was wearing rich shades of blue compared to other angels, he was supposed to blend in with the night.

SPARKLING SURPRISE! Princess meets fairy! ☀👑

My redesigns of aisha and her cousins.

I had a hard time figuring out what she look should be but then i realized the best outfits are the ones that are the simplest. My main inspiration is her live action and reboot outfits with some Mediterranean and african fashions since she and her family has Greek and Arabic names. Her fins resemble the ones on the mermaids since shes part merfolk in this au. You can't see it but the front part of her hair has reddish highlights.

For her magic winx her top his a half sheer toga like top with a jellyfish skirt (she has shorts underneath), arm bands and gladiator sandals with no heel. Her color is back to being green but with a sligtly blue undertone, and LOADS of pearls.

In my rewrite of s5 the winx club goes to tressa's coronation when they're attacked by a mysterious assassin. They end up separated from Tritannus (who at this point isn't a bad guy yet) and take the mersiblings on earth for protection. A lot of s5 is spent with nereus and tressa getting used to human culture as well as a growing friendship between roxy and tressa.

Since theyre in disguise I made their hair colors a lot less vibrant. I gave tressa a fairly simple outfit that highlights her athleticism, with black compression clothes to balance our the blue. I forgot to draw hibiscus patterns on her top since she's also soemthing of a coconut girl.

Nereus goes full boho here, no boring sweatshirt in sight! I want his style to be a lot different from the specialists; he spent a lot of time underwater so he might not be comfortable wearing tight clothing. I gave him a long green tunic and blue pants with white trim and ripple patterns. To keep his palette from looking boring i added orange and sand, and spme patterns on his tunic. He has a bit of african influence with his hairstyle, the large beaded jewelry and his new skin tone. Yeah I made him black since we dont have a lot of black princes in western animation and honestly, it's payback for all the whitewashing the franchise does. So nereus and tressa are black now! :]

I made the outfit from and used two accessories from the Alwayz line: Yasmin's boots and Sasha's purse.

Also I went to target and saw yasmin on sale for $15 so I got her. I love the shade of purple. Now that i think about it she kinda reminds me of Darcy!

TFA blackarachnia variants

I'm not a fan of season 5. Its completely dumbed down from the first 4 seasons (no thanks to having Nick jr writers on board), the fashions were lackluster, the villains were juvenile, and overall a downgrading experience. I also hate how the mermaids went from being a society ruled by women to being ruled over by a man and no, tritons and mermaids being separate "species" doesn't erase the fact that Tressa got overshadowed by her brother! So in my canon, all three siblings have coronations on the same day, Nereus and Tritannus ruling their share of the ocean while Tressa is the Head Honcho (as in she has the final word on really big matters). The winx are invited to the ceremony and bring Roxy as their plus one to help her get accustomed to magical affairs. They're there when the party is attacked by fish monsters, and while they put up a fight, they are forced to retreat after Ligea and Neptune are corrupted, bringing nereus and tressa along with them to Earth. At this point they don't know that Tritannus is the culprit and assumed he is in hiding with his court.

Meanwhile, I've just recently moved to Gardenia and got a job working at Klaus' bar. She does know about the winx and Roxy being magical but not Tressa and Nereus being mermaids. To show his gratitude, Nereus offers to help out around the bar and meets my sona. She finds him a little odd. So while the winx are in magix trying to sort things out I'm over here teaching an alien prince how to use a telephone.

This gif has nothing to do with anything I just like seeing Sky get hurt 😂 ha ha BLAST HIM AGAIN ICY!!

Anyway, Nereus is glad to meet someone who isn't giving him special treatment for once, and I'm just happy to have an attractive guy who isn't a douche.

But, this being a rewrite things aren't always a walk in the park.

characters- Layla, Bloom, Stella, Flora, Musa, Roxy, Tecna, Trixie Carter, Jake Long, Rose, Spud contents- Masterlist // You are here | 02 | 03 | 04 | 05 | 06 | 07 summary- Trixie Carter was actually Princess Tina of Andros she is also the younger sister of Princess Aisha of Andros before she was seperate from her birth family after living with her uncle who is her mother's brother. Layla found her younger sister Tina who is Trixie Carter. notes- in this prompt, Trixie Carter is Aisha/Layla's younger sister and the family she lives on are her aunt and uncle from her birth mother's side. A new voice actor for Trixie Carter/Princess Tina of Andros is Malia Baker. pairings- trixie/jake, past jake/rose, arthur/stacy

Trixie has always been different compare to her uncle and aunt while her grandmother was taking care of her until her magic appeared it may be surprised by both her aunt and grandmother. Her magic is basically water. Her aunt called Jake's mom and Arthur's parents that her daughter will be training with her so no friends aren't allowed to enter the house. Trixie is actually a fairy like her older sister Aisha who's name is now under another name as Layla.

Trixie's birth parents were Teredor and Niobe she also has a uncle and aunt from her dad side which was Neptune and Ligea. She even has cousins too they were Nereus, Tritannus, and Tressa. She knew that Aisha/Layla is her older sister she kept having dreams about them she even told her aunt and grandmother.

As for her aunt she called Aisha who is currently living in Gardenia that is in California which is quiet far here in New York City. Aisha suggested to her aunt to let her sister listen to the Winx songs. Yet Tina recalled Aisha always calls her Princess Tina in public while she doesn't really flaunt or brag about her royal status unlike her older sister Aisha.

Aisha was so happy to hear that her younger sister Tina is alive but lives another name as Trixie Carter which is totally fine with her. She called her aunt and ask if she can come visit in New York City as her aunt replied yes. She told her friends that she is going to visit her younger sister they allowed it and let her do it. On her arrival to New York City she recieved a hug from her aunt but she can't spot her sister which her aunt notice.

"Tina is in school but as Trixie Carter. The school doesn't know that she is a princess. And she is being bullied there all the time but she has friends two they are both boys name Jake Long and Arthur Spudinski." Her aunt told her as she nodded and decided to call her little sister as Princess Tina of Andros to see the others shock faces as she will find out who had been bullying her little sister behind her back. And the bullies will regret of bullying her little sister who she treasures.

In the school, Trixie seem well calm but knew someone is coming. She holds her status hidden from many even her two best friends. Until Brad walked pass laughing on her, Jake, and Spud it annoyed her as water begin to boil inside the living beings bodies to felt heat. Her eyes weren't normal it has changed which caught Jake's off guard as he isn't sure whats going on with his best friend right now only to see her glancing at Brad until he screamed as his skins begin to blood red and some of his blood came out of his hands.

"What a shame." Trixie muttered boredly than walked away as water from the water fountain slammed right at Brad immediately causing him to be knocked out cold as everyone sees what they just witness. As Arthur and Jake just stared at what just happen only to hear Trixie said something.

Just before she continue going to her class a door slammed open at the school entrance. Here comes Aisha with her boasting my name in public again. Trixie thought amused. "Princess Tina of Andros! My darling little sister! I heard from Auntie you are being bullied!" Her older sister voiced called out causing everyone in the halls to frozed while Brad looked afraid he bullied a PRINCESS who he didn't know of.

Trixie groaned than turned to her older sister, "Really, Aisha? Again. I don't have to tell." She complained that made Brad drain in white when she responded. Arthur sputter in words and Jake was speechless they didn't know that Trixie is a PRINCESS. While Stacy had a hunch that Arthur's best friend was royalty due to the posture and accent she recongized but she had no idea that Trixie is the princess. She find funny seeing Brad looking scared now. Hmph that's what he gets for bullying Trixie not realizing that she is a royal princess. Stacy thought.
