I am Sad.

Holly’s gone. Mikey’s gone.

I can’t find the will to finish this essay.

I should be done with finals but I’m not.

I feel like I disappointed my favorite teacher.

I think my best friend is using me as an emotional dumpster.

Most of my friends forgot about me.

I haven’t been taking care of myself lately.

I feel like such a fuck up, and I can 100% guarentee that no one is going to see this let alone care.

I don’t need someone to tell me that it’s gonna be okay.

I need someone to tell me that it’s okay that it’s not.

I’m not entirely sure what I need, but I know it’s not what’s happening right now.

some stuff i’ve learned about adulthood

  • a little kindness goes a long way. pay it forward
  • always carry over-the-counter painkillers (ibuprofen, tylenol, etc.) wherever you go! if you don’t carry a bag, keep them in your car. as someone who gets migraines at least once a week, this one has been a lifesaver. if you take prescription meds, put one or two doses in a plastic bag and keep them on hand too in case you forget to take them before you leave the house (for people that have periods, this goes for tampons/pads/period products too!)
  • having a good relationship with coworkers can make a menial job infinitely better
  • you don’t need a lot of friends, you just need close ones
  • in spite of what your anxiety tells you, no one is ever looking at you. by that i mean, no one is watching your every move and waiting for you to mess up. i have anxiety too, so i know how it feels to be afraid of screwing up in public, but i can guarantee they’re way too worried about themselves to focus on you
  • never be afraid to ask for help! i’m adhd, so i usually have problems following directions because i forget or space out. i’ve found that asking for clarification is so much better in the long run than just trying to wing it. plus it saves you from the “am i doing this right” anxiety
  • compliments are never weird! it actually feels as good to give them as it does to receive them!
  • in the same vain, compliments that go deeper than physical appearance are one of the best things ever. a girl in my film class last year told me she liked my energy, and i still think about it a year later
  • the music you listen to first thing in the morning can set the tone for the whole day. put on some stuff that makes you feel good while you get ready - it may seem silly, but it’s a major mood-booster
  • lastly: it’s gonna be okay. some of the best days of your life haven’t even happened yet. you have the strength to make it through any situation, even the ones you think you won’t survive.
