Just a post and apology to my friends and readers on tumblr. I know I have challenges to write for and things to update but my bipolar and BPD has been so bad recently that I fell into a dark mind frame of feeling like I was the cause of everyone’s problems, that I had no purpose or value in this world and all the while being the main source of care for my great niece who is only 3. It’s been a really hard few weeks and I’ve barely been about online. I’m lucky to have the family I do. I am sort of back on here now and will start going through the inbox soon. Sending love and hugs to everyone xx
Speaking up about mental illness is of course very important to make it a less taboo subject (which it shouldn’t be in the first place) but personally all i got was “oh… well did I gotta pick up something at the mall wanna come?”
There’s nothing really wrong with this answer it’s okay not to know what to say but maybe a little follow up? a text maybe? no apology needed just a simple “how are you doing, is there anything I can do?”
More times than not I find myself feeling like I am not good enough. When good things happen instead of enjoying the moment I wonder what is going to go wrong because it’s too good to be true. Because of my stress and anxiety I don’t fully enjoy any moment and I feel like I am just letting these special years of my life pass me by. I can’t be the only person to feel this way. I want to be a happy person, I want to not start worrying about what’s to come next month today. Anyone out there, if you feel this please share what works for you. I feel like I am drowning.
I had to get blood work done last week (underachieving thyroid) and when my doctor called me back, she said my Vitamin D was very low. She was going to send me some meds and, I quote, “Get outside and get some sunshine. You deserve it.” It literally made my brain stop thinking because I had never had a doctor tell me I deserve to be healthy. It kinda hit me just right so now every time I am outside and the sun hits my face, I tell myself I deserve it.
selenagomez: Mental health is something that is very close to my heart. It is so important to have places where people can come together and understand that they’re not alone in their mental fitness journey. We are so excited to unveil the building of our mental fitness ecosystem to the world. @letswondermind
“All is mental” is one of the 7 universal laws. That means we have the power to shift our consciousness to be and feel whatever we want at any time. But it takes practice…hard mental training. Especially in this time of great and constant distractions.

#wcw here’s a post dedicated to my fave final girl: Sidney Prescott!!! Comic panel from the Scream 2 #moviecomicadaptation.
I’ve hit a bit of a rough patch as of late.
The depression & things done got me good ya’ll.
So apologies for the lack of new work lately. As always, I appreciate you all and your constant support.Take care of yourselves and thanks for being YOU!
ALWAYS REBLOG WHEN YOU SEE SOMETHING LIKE THIS PLEASE; ITS SO MUCH MORE THAN IMPORTANT TO PEOPLE. IT MEANS EVERYTHING TO SOMEBODY AND EVEN THOUGH YOU MIGHT NOT SEE THIS IN THE SAME LIGHT, SOMEONE MIGHT. INFACT YOU REBLOGGING THIS COULD STOP SOMEONE TAKING THEIR LIFE TONIGHT.
I noticed there isn’t one here for Ireland, so
Irish free suicide helpline: 01-116 123
last time i reblogged this, i got this ask:
so please, please reblog. this could actually save a life.
keep yourselves safe!
Always a reblog.
Suicide is very serious and should always be treated as such. Save a life and reblog. Keep hope alive everyone and stay strong in tough times
I can’t believe it’s been a whole year since I self published! I’m proud of how far I’ve come and I’m happy & grateful that so many people across the world have this in their house. All I’ve ever wanted is to touch Black & LGBTQ+ communities. Thank you for all the love ❤️

Sometimes we all have bad mental health days, even as witches.
Don’t forget to take care of yourself on those days. Drink lots of water and relax if you can. And one thing that I like to say is, “I’m going to have low expectations of myself today.”
To me that just means that I’m not going to try and do too much. The cleaning can get done tomorrow. Any projects that you have can wait. Do something that will help you feel better: watch TV or read a book. Sit with your crystals or love on your animals.
I also like to let my partner know when these days happen. It helps him know what I need that day: a little extra patience and maybe some good cuddles.
Be kind to yourself. Having mental illness is no different from physical ailments. Treat yourself the same way you would if you were sick with the flu or something, and don’t be afraid to ask for help.
I’m sorry I’ve been M.I.A Mental disorders are real. We need to be able to talk about that. I overworked myself and triggered myself to the point where I crushed. Recovery is hard but so am I.

I feel sorry for people that aren’t in fandoms. Just what do you do with your life when you’re not crying over a fictional character or someone who’ll never know you. When you’re not drowning yourself in fandom content as a coping mechanism. Like you life just be boring then or?
