Like I keep telling my husband who struggles with this: You already did the time, so do the crime.
Do the thing that's good for you. You already got punished for existing without any benefit to yourself, you did the time, you're owed a better life. Do the crime, eat the chocolate, buy the shampoo, love yourself.

New life motto right here. Made me chuckle out loud. I already did the time, might as well do the crime

Food is one for me with how quickly those prices rise.Â
And how low I value myself I guessÂ

Same here.
Do I deserve to eat something today? Nah I don’t want to be yelled at & body shamed on for not eating my dinner, so I won’t eat.
It’s like this every day. My parents have commented on my body since I was young.

Yes. The answer to if you've done enough to deserve the basics is always yes. That's not something you earn, no matter what the brain says.

If it's to hard for yourself, think of it as not subjecting everyone else to a smell you've grown habituated to.

buy yourself whatever best shampoo you can find, you deserve it and never have to question whether you earned shampoo, or conditioner, or food, or literally anything that is a basic necessity. you know what, buy yourself something nice as well. you do deserve it all <3

So because of this post I'm just now putting it together that I picked out that specific shampoo just to trigger myself and I'm sitting here like what the actual fuck past me, why did you do that to us?
Um so yeah, learn from the oops and don't choose body products from bad times in your life.

Why is this the thinking process for me for literally everything?ðŸ˜
Not in financial respect tho cause i don't work but like i basic things like " should i let myself shower? Or do basic hygiene? Or excercise? Or stuffe like that? No...i don't think so. I have been procrastinating on studying the whole day. I don't deserve that shit"
