Sophroneo

gosto de gente que fica: coração é casa e não rua

your past self was doing the best it could. You know more now, and in the future, you’ll know even more! You grow each day! Don’t hate the past versions of you for not knowing what you know now.

Eu me recuperei daquele dia, mas nunca mais voltei a ser eu mesma.

obrigada por ter abraçado o meu cansaço e acalmado a minha inconstância

in this new year I want you to be alright. I hope you move out. I hope you have enough money to feel safe. I hope you abandon shame and forgive yourself. I hope you get enough sleep and some good news. I hope you laugh a lot and the heaviness of the world eases a bit. I wish you to be alright.

thanks for that 🥹

Trauma doesn’t always look like flashbacks or panic attacks. Sometimes it looks like exhaustion. Sometimes it looks like irritability. Sometimes it looks like avoiding things you don’t even know why you avoid. However it shows up, it’s real.

If you are currently going through a difficult time, I want you to know that it is ok if you are not functioning as usual. It is ok if you are not doing it all. Please do not be so hard on yourself, my love. You are fighting. You are surviving. And that is enough. If you do not have the strength to clean your whole place, it is ok to pick out one single thing like changing your pillow case or taking out the bin. If you have no energy to cook a full on meal, it is ok if you just eat something, anything. It does not even have to be healthy. Right now it is all about the baby steps. And it is absolutely ok if life feels hard right now - just remember that you are allowed to do things differently in this situation. Be gentle with yourself.

amor é cuidado. se não preocupa com sua saúde mental, não te ama.
