if you are really passionate about saving, helping, and fighting for animals around the world, you can sign up to email updates from PETA. you can sign countless letters or write your own. it can help you feel like you're making a difference. you often get emails of success stories too.

trigger warning:

it's for a charity that find bears locked in cages for sometimes 20+ years (often to take substances from their bodies). this charity saves and nurtures them back to health. it's one of the saddest and most heartbreaking things i've ever heard of. careful when reading or watching about the issue, but if you could spread the word, please do. some may be able to give and support the charity and they do such important work.

thank you ♡

looking to the past to understand myself in the present is my go-to method of healing and has never failed me.

learning about narcissistic abuse made me feel seen, heard, validated, and understood. it explained my pain like nothing else i had ever come across. the awareness of this knowledge empowered me to stand up to my abusers and free myself from their clutches. i know there will be others like me who need this, so I share it here:

if you experience constant patterns of this behaviour in your home or relationship, this is for you. i focus on parents, but it can be anyone, even political systems.

(generally...) domestic violence, and physical & emotional abuse:

  • witnessing, or being a part of, fights, or emotional volatility at home
