✨It's More Than Okay to Have a Shitty Day, It's Damn Near Mandatory✨ [A Pinch of Positivity] [We All Feel Like We Suck Somedays] [You Don't... You Might Swallow, Though] [I Don't Know Your Personal Life & I Don't Judge Either Way] (Patreon)

Hey Teacups -

So, today has been shitty. I've tried, I've failed, I've cried, I've flailed. 

All the while, practising the fine arts of self-sabotage and mental torture, when I had a thought: 

What if it's just another shitty day? 

And after a little bit of contemplation, it didn't seem so necessary to berate and belittle myself. 

If anyone is having one of those days, please, please (for the love of your pleasure sensors) don't be awful to yourself. You're a gosh darn person and it is gosh darn okay to have a really shitty day.

Being cruel to yourself is not going to fix anything. Not only is it unnecessary, it's also simply not helpful. You need to be on your team. You need to treat yourself with as much understanding and empathy as you would anyone else. I say that with the complete admittance that I don't always do this myself. It's tough, but like most medicines, it helps. 

Take care, be safe, and above all else, cut yourself some much-needed slack.

Love,

Tea
