I Feel Like People Don’t Talk Enough About The Guilt, Shame, And Embarrassment That Come With Having

I feel like people don’t talk enough about the guilt, shame, and embarrassment that come with having mental disorders or experiencing low mental health. Constantly worrying that you’re secretly a horrible person or that you’re negatively impacting anyone who is close to you. Feeling selfish because you’re so stuck in your own head sometimes that you’re not doing enough to “earn” anyone’s company or care and that ultimately you must be a terrible friend because of that. Berating yourself for not just being better already. Believing that you don’t have a “good enough” reason to be feeling the way you do. Fighting constantly between wanting connection with others and wanting to hide yourself away to protect them and you. Having your rational mind on board while experiencing symptoms so you have to watch yourself not always acting rationally or healthily. The humiliation of being seen behaving in ways you normally wouldn’t behave when those symptoms are lesser or that low mood is higher. Just hoping people can see through to the core of you and allow some grace for your humanity.

Bedtime cuddles

I'm going to reiterate what I said in the tags on that one post so more people that need to see it:

IF YOU ARE A TRANS FEMME PERSON ON HRT AND ARE UNSATISFIED WITH YOUR GROWTH AND FAT REDISTRIBUTION, PLEASE CONSIDER TRYING EATING MORE.

I know too many rail things trans women who complain that they aren't getting what they want and are too quickly jumping to surgical remedies due to it. I'm not saying top surgery shouldn't be an option or that we need to put more barriers, but I am saying it is an incredibly costly surgery that could have impacts down the road that you should consider your options before doing so.

Your body can't redistribute fat it does not have.

Genetics has a role to play, absolutely - I'm lucky that I have the kind of genetics I do - but I promise y'all it can work. After my doctor convinced me that putting on a little weight was okay and not the end of the world and would help with my results, I went up a full cup size and then some, and I have hips and an ass.

Some of that is adding on progesterone, but one of the things progesterone does is cause you to retain more fat, but that fat goes to the places you want it!

Like, I get it, everyone woman struggles with our weight and the constant inundation of 00 models and DD breasts, but that's not reality. Those women are on hyper specifics diets that are basically a full time job to achieve that look (plus some help from post production). It's not feasible to look like that.

Don't be afraid of weight gain. It's okay. You'll be okay. I was deathly afraid of it, being skinny was honestly part of my identity, I could wear children's extra large until I was 27, but even if it's not for your own health because despite popular belief skinnier is not necessarily healthier, just consider it.

popular holotuber spacebomberguy has uploaded a new five hour video essay! it starts as a critique of the new “dress like a senator” fashion line and it’s place in pro-republic clone wars propaganda, before spiraling into a discovery that chancellor palpatine is a sith lord!! reactions on the holonet are mixed, with macewinduofficial declaring the video “necessary viewing for all of coruscant” while anakinskyyyy3534 replied to a link with “TLDW”

This comic is a little different than what I usually do but I worked real hard on it—Maybe I'll make more infographic stuff in the future this ended up being fun. Hope you learned something new :)

If you are still curious and want to learn more about OCD, you can visit the International OCD Foundation's website. I also recommend this amazing TED ED video "Starving The Monster", which was my first introduction to the disorder and this video by John Green about his own experience with OCD.

The IOCDF's website can also help you find support groups, therapy, and has lots of online guides and resources as well if you or a loved one is struggling with the disorder. It is very comprehensive!

Reblog to teach your followers about OCD

(But also not reblogging doesn't make you evil, silly goose)

I think it should be considered by people that make fun of the name resident evil that the title resident evil does not refer to residents who are evil but an evil that resides in the resident area which I think is infinitely funnier. It's like the term "local menace" like what is bro up to a block away from me.
