It’s not glamorous and there’s a period where it feels really bad and it’s like why would I trust this freak with my deepest, darkest. But then after a couple years something will happen that you used to freak out about and you will notice that you’re not freaking out and you’ll realize that it took years to create your issues and it’s taking years to undo them but it’s happening.

We all need support, we can’t fully see our issues or wounds. You need to understand the why before you can even know how or what to do differently. A good therapist can help you better understand yourself and guide you in that process. There needs to be action at a certain point. Find ways to practice your new ways of being. New mindsets or habits take practice and time.
It’s important to have grace and empathy for yourself. The things you don’t like may very well be the best you could do with the tools you had.

My therapist is not a tough love kinda therapist. And I've maybe heard him curse three times. But we had been talking about the same issue for a while and I was trying not to ruminate, but I was also analyzing and pathologizing over and over. And finally he just said, sometimes you have to get the fuck over it. And it allowed me to imagine a life beyond the past, to not let the past define you. It's easier said than done to just flip a switch and actively choose a better way. To stop it from taking up so much space in your head. But sometimes you truly need to flip that switch and get over it.

The connection was there, they’re going through some shit, it’s an emotional roller coaster but my therapist says good things take time?

This might be their first job and they might not know that they deserve respect and that bosses don’t know shit! Subtly teach them by example that you don’t have to kiss ass to be good at your job. they’ll be forever changed

Examples: Teenage Runaway, 90s Dog (that’s angelic_kid), Brat Worldwide (that’s mine). Now you have a rubric to check your fits against. I mostly dress to bring joy to my inner child — she’s had a hard enough time. Fuck the haters (including the critic inside your head!)
