This basically describes my relationship with the character of Jonathan Sims
kill 'character did nothing wrong'. nurture 'character did everything wrong and i was whooping and cheering the whole time'
Loving that last line! I hadn’t ever thought of self-care as investing in myself, but it makes so much sense
stop ignoring yourself. fix your posture, get a new hair cut, do your nails, take care of your skin, brush your teeth, drink water, eat foods that give you energy. get strong, stop looking sloppy. when you feel good, you do good. invest in yourself.

I don’t like when people belittle other people’s interests by calling it a phase. Yeah, maybe it is, but that’s okay! What matters is their interest now.
Same thing kind of applies to identity, but in that case all I can say is that we are all constantly discovering ourselves. I don’t think a single person out there knows all there is to know about themself. We should be and feel free to connect, identify, and label ourselves based on our current self knowledge.
“what if kids identify with something and it ends up just being a phase-?” good. stop teaching and expecting kids (and adults honestly) to formulate permanent traits and ideas of themselves. everything in life is a phase. that doesn’t make it any less legitimate while you experience it. let people explore themselves and know it’s okay if what you think about yourself changes.
Do people actually use these terms with the pop psychology definitions???
Please use these terms correctly. Not doing so will deeply harm the people who actually have experienced trauma, gaslighting, triggers, and people who have NPD.
Edit: okay holy hell this blew up overnight. To everyone who is mentioning the censoring - I did not make this graphic, nor did I censor it. I ABSOLUTELY AGREE and it actually kind of ties into my original point. That being said, PLEASE stop reblogging just to say that. I know. Everyone knows. It has been said enough.
