Admitting you want/wanted validation is such a hard thing to do. It’s like admitting you feel lonely sometimes. F**k that can make you feel so vulnerable yet also you take control of the feeling. I’ve always thought that if you break your arm, you know you have to get medical help. But when the thing that’s broken is in your mind, your mind is like- hey no you don’t need help. Let’s find a fix of dopamine somewhere else. Girl you don’t want to deal with this wound. So- massive respect from me to you for what you are sharing. ❤️

I relate to this so much as someone w a semi famous meme page that got big because of my self-deprecating humour… I run the page still but I’ve lost over 10k since I stopped posting super negative bc I also realized it was making me feel awful!!!!

Fell in love with your voice via Notes To My Selfie. This is real, vulnerable, funny, and even better.

i love all of this and it totally resonates, but serious question - you were 24 in 2014? i was 31 that year and im pretty sure you’re like 3-4 years younger than me?
