turing-tested:

its not your fault that your abuser treats you like shit. normal fucking people dont respond to you not doing something the way they want with emotional or physical abuse. the normal response to someone not doing the dishes isn’t fucking abuse. abuse can make you feel like it’s your fault you’re abused, but remember, and its hard to keep this in mind, but it’s not normal. abuse is not the way nonabusers react with. abuse is not your fault, and it’s not normal. 

vampireapologist:

Being a good person is a choice. Don’t let people fool you into believing that truly good people never have bad thoughts, are never tempted by the easier path, by the low road, never mess up or act out selfishly. Never believe a person can be good without making a conscious effort.

Every single time you do something good, you’ve made a decision to make the world a little brighter.

Goodness is not an inherent trait, it is a choice. Keep making it! I see you, I’m proud of you, and I’m rooting for you!

Zoom in on her face in the third gif.
She means this.
You are completely irreplaceable.

This went deep man. Look at her face. I would love to know where this came from, what she was talking about. And it’s true. So true. Completely irreplaceable. You are you and there is no better you

Reblogging because I needed to see this message tonight, and something tells me someone else does too.

Reblogging as I think every one of my followers are special and impossible to replace.

Remember that.

You are all special and important, and Ellen is a gift. 

On my goods days, I’m like: “Thanks, Ellen. You’re such a treasure. Thank-you for supporting positive mental health. I hardly even get a chance to watch your show, but small gestures like this are so important and so reaffirming. Thanks.”

On my bad days,I’m like: “Thanks, Ellen. You’re such a treasure. But you don’t know me, and I am highly-replaceable trash. Thanks, anyway.”

You aren’t trash. Just an irreplaceable person having a bad day.

basically:

  • it is not a virtue to not set boundaries
  • ignoring your own wants and needs is not a healthy way to show love
  • people worth loving will respect your boundaries
  • people worth loving will not want you to set aside your own wants and needs to make them more comfortable
  • ‘having no boundaries at all’ describes a person who is very hurt, not a person who is very virtuous
  • suffering for others’ comfort is not how you be a good person, it is just how you become very hurt
  • sometimes you need to make others uncomfortable in order to get your needs met
  • your needs are more important than others’ comfort
  • your comfort is equally important to others’ comfort
  • making other people uncomfortable is not, in itself, ethically wrong or morally dubious

shoutout to people with ADHD who are dismissed as “stupid” or “slow” or “ditzy”. 

shoutout to people with ADHD who don’t have a special talent or gift. 

there is more than one way to be smart. you don’t have to be super gifted in certain areas to be smart. you can be smart in so many ways.

and most importantly, you don’t have to be smart to be worthy. being smart is not everything. and you are valid as heck, regardless of your intelligence.

Reminder

Your body isn’t trying to kill you. Your body is trying hard to survive. It has the wrong blueprint, it lost the manual, but it’s trying.

Your body is working the only way it knows how, it is trying so hard to keep you alive. Your body is not the enemy, it is the battlefield.

It’s okay to resent your body, it’s okay to not love your body because it doesn’t function like others do.

But remember your body is fighting hard for you, even when it doesn’t seem like it.

The 2019 ACA (Affordable Care Act) enrollment period has been shortened from 90 days to 45 days (November 1-December 15, 2018) and the advertising budget to promote open enrollment has been slashed in an effort to sabotage the program. You’re probably not seeing a lot of advertising (read: zero) about the enrollment window online or on TV.
