Hey y'all! First of all, thank you all so much for your patience with my painfully slow updates on my X Reader fics! I've really been trying to work on my self image lately, and let me tell you, sometimes learning to love myself can be exhausting. I've struggled with a lot in the past I won't bring up right now as not to trigger anyone but I've always hated my body beyond just dysphoria. On top of that I'm trying to teach myself that my gender expression is not my gender identity and it's okay if I want to wear a dress to brother's graduation party instead of masculine clothes. It's okay if sometimes I look like Eleven from season 3 and other times I look like Steve Harrington. I'm not gender fluid in my identity, but my gender expression is fluid. And that's okay and I'm trying to convince myself of that.
On another note, I'm thinking about writing a stranger things version of them because I'm gonna be honest, I really meant to get a chapter up this week but after watching season 4 volume 2 I am in mourning and I've just been completely on ithyperfixating (as you may have noticed that my two extremes for the styles I strive for). I'm really sorry but I'm truly trying my best, it just feels really hard to get motivation to write anything other than stranger things at the moment but I am working on a few chapters slowly but surely. Thank y'all so much, I love you!
Drink some water, take a binder break, eat something of nutritional value, get out of bed, maybe go for a walk if you have the energy but if you don't that's totally fine too, take a shower if you need/can, and don't forget to sleep a little bit!
DRINKING COFFEE IS NOT EATING SOMETHING OF NUTRITIONAL VALUE, GO EAT SOME TOAST!!!
And remember it's okay to take a break for yourself for a little bit when you need to. Always put you first, it's not selfish, it's not lazy, it's self care. Love yourself as much as I love you.
You are valid in your identity.
