- brush your teeth, or at least use mouthwash. every part of your body will wear eventually, and some are easier to prevent than others.
- you can sulk and rot and whine, and sometimes it's deserved, but it can't be forever if you really want your misery to be over.
- if you can afford to do it, you can afford to think about it first.
- tell people you love them, even if you can't say it out loud.
- some things just take a long time. and it sucks. but it's worth waiting.
- if you can't generate your own motivation, your own goals, and your own emotions, it might be worth questioning what exactly is stopping you.
- something is better than nothing.
- you can always change something.
- write things down. make things. leave a record of your presence, and remember who you are. remember who you want to be, and what it means to you. even in secret, even in silence, preserve what you can.
