Yesss!

Always and absolutely!

Can 100% relate.

I hate these quotes that are like Nothing is Impossible it makes me feel worse

Thank you for these. I went out dancing for my birthday ( I'm in my 40's ) my friend told me that I was " out of control". Apparently when you get older you are an embarrassment if you dance and have fun. I'm at home with my parakeet now. What she said made me feel horrible.

Yeah, like my ex who tried to push his positivity on me when my depression was at its worse. "If you think positive, positive things come to you". Fk that with a passion.

Even when surrounded with positivity, these feelings creep in for sure!

Fr tho... positive vibes doesn't work on me... I need negative vibes... I need to hit my lowest core to become a diamond... when I see positive vibes, I feels like I want to be more worst than before. 🤷‍♀️ idk why...

I call it toxic positivity

I think people are brainwashed into thinking that all this affirmation c**p actually makes anything better.

Above is a picture of Toxic Positivity that emotionally poisons us.

It is sad when you need posters instead of peaple saying you things like "I am proud of you!" "I belive in you!" "You are beautiful!" and stuff like that. Real killer.

I keep seeing these 'positivity is a choice' and 'your happiness is your responsibility' quotes. The intent behind them might not be harmful but it's really ignorant and patronising to tell people that their depression is a choice and you can snap out of it at any moment they choose or the misplaced belief that overly independent people thrust on the rest of society that happiness exists only in your mind and external factors have little to no contribution. Some of the healthiest and happiest regions in the world prioritise human relationships and not this 'only you are solely responsible for your happiness' jargon that we find in mainstream pop culture today. They prioritise kindness and generosity. They prioritise individual freedom as well as the betterment of community in an intricate balance. This superimposed positivity is not real nor sustainable for most people.

Only 1/2 of those are toxic positivity. Not all positivity is toxic... I see this more like, those things are all okay (other than saying positive vibes only and positivity is a choice) but it's also okay for there to be times when you hurt and are okay with being hurt. But encouraging a positive outlook is a good idea, so long as you don't didcourage someone when they're not feeling positive by acting like it's their fault for not trying hard enough

How about "YOU ARE ENOUGH AS YOU ARE"

Motivation starts after you start.. it doesn't just happen.

I want to give her a hug. I have been there. Fake it until you make it, including happiness

Way too much...

improvise. adapt. overcome.

Food poison. Common enough and people will rarely ask for proof.

Sorry I just can’t help it

Just be yourself and don't give a rat's a**e about what other people say. It's just so wrong the wy we women are acculturated to internalise so much self criticism.

I wish it were that easy...

I already look like this, amethyst is my favourite

I just go:.....what time is it???

Anxiety and depression, so sad :(

Maybe with a little sliced beetroot?

hell yeah!! mammals got hair on their body!!!

I didn't shave my legs when I went to the pool the other day. Guess what...no one cared nor noticed! Sometimes it can be all in your head- you are your own worst enemy.

Bra-ggage 🧳🧳/ bra-pack

It's impossible for me to do so. My own mother told me that I had to justify my existence. I wish I'd had the presence of mind to tell her that she should justify having me first.

It happens!! Shaving the bottom of your foot though??

That tattoo 🤣

This is why I don't like how pale my skin is

I'm both a book worm and someone who likes writing stories, ask me to visualize clouds and I will be lost in whatever story the inspire for a long long time.

men deserve cute romantic s**t too ya know >:C

This weekend at the beach... the absolute worst! 😔

Particularly like the dye colour.

Looks like the cry juice (I hate the other word, sorry) is cutting through the boot

Kirishima wants to know your location:

Airport accidently gave her Jack the Rippers bag.
