someone: you were pretty good at that thing, why’d you stop doing it?
me internally: I get extremely anxious when I think about doing something I might possibly succeed at because I base my self-worth on my achievements and other people’s approval, I am afraid because I know I will never be able to live up to my own unrealistic expectations, I hate making mistakes because they make me feel worthless, I take negative feedback too personally, I feel immense guilt over not doing things that I’ve been avoiding which just makes me avoid them more, I feel ashamed and inadequate due to how difficult it is for me to stay committed to anything, I’m worried that I’ll just end up disappointing myself and the entire world, and I am convinced that if I failed I would literally die.
me externally: idk i guess i’ve just been kinda busy lol
To mend a broken heart
Take a bottle of champagne into a hot bath. Pretend you are in Regency England, and your brothers are about to duel the bastard for casting you aside.
Once you change your philosophy, you change your thought pattern. Once you change your thought pattern, you change your attitude. Once you change your attitude, it changes your behavior pattern and then you go on into some action.

kink: people with kind hearts and good intentions
You are not screaming into the void in vain. The void is just practicing active listening and wants you to let it all out without feeling like it is judging or trying to speak over you
thank you void
flawsinthevoodoo: #the void is there for you #it wants you to know that it and the abyss have been talking #and they both think you’re pretty great #i mean why do you think the abyss looks back into you? #it’s because you look fine as hell
Tyler Hoechlin at the Hollywood Knights basketball game
For a second, I thought the guy wearing the black tee that’s in the foreground of the first gif was Dylan O’Brien when he was a bit younger and still had a buzzcut and now all I can see is supportive bf Stiles Stilinski and beau Derek Hale of television fame who’s participating in the Hollywood Knights game. Sorry not sorry.
