today my therapist told me that sometimes negative feelings like guilt, anxiety, self loathing, etc are like the hiccups. they’re uncomfortable, we don’t like them, there’s no way to turn them off; they can even be incapacitating for a while. we don’t always know where they came from or when they’ll go away, so sometimes instead of focusing on why we feel a certain way we need to get better at recognizing its temporary nature, keeping perspective, and enduring discomfort. i feel like a lot of self-improvement rhetoric is about pinpointing specific causes for negative thoughts/behaviors so you can eradicate them, but people with chronic mental illness really need to work on allowing themselves to experience these feelings without going into a downward spiral.
women writing love songs: i am a wild, untamed, dangerous thing but you are a brave, reckless fool i am a siren luring helpless victims into my depths in my heart there is an unquenchable wildfire and i hope and fear it will consume me
men writing love songs: i love you, alive girl. i will show you with my body, and my lips and my eyes, very soon.
