Straight out of the camera

A shadow-loving selfie because i’m learning to love myself and my body more and more whilst being in lockdowns for so long ♥ it’s all about perspective ♥
•
In the first lockdown, i was at my lowest ever. A massive hole i crawled/fell into and i had a very hard time getting out if not falling deeper. Mental health is the very most important thing there is. You should know that or it could kill you. I’m not kidding.
•
And so at one point i started to look more at myself. I started to learn more who i am and how i came to be the man i was back then. Also learning how to be fine with that or even learning to love all those aspects of myself. Learning what all these feelings are, which i can’t/couldn’t cope with. It was and still is a hell of a struggle sometimes but that’s normal. That’s progress!
•
So offcourse you can become better again! But remember to take your time, it’s not gonna be an easy quick fix. It’s ups and downs all the way but those are the learning curves. And so i started healing, bit by bit, slowly moving in the directions i wanted/want to go, where i needed to go.
•
I’m nowhere near where i want to be, but i’m closer to it and that’s my drive. One step at a time, and sometimes it’s even a necessary step back to walk on the right path, because you took the wrong turn left. It’s always you vs you, don’t forget that!

Stay golden & have a great Sunday x

Remember these moody vibes? It feels like it’s been a long time but in fact it was only 2 weeks ago.

Climate change aint’t real? Yeah... we surely need YOUR input if YOU still think like that. g*y x
