kinda really wish i had someone to come home and melt into.
this too shall pass
there’s such an unhealthy stigma, especially in academic communities, surrounding taking time off or dropping out. putting education above your health and well-being isn’t okay and should not be the standard. obviously there are positives to school/college/uni, but the environment created by the education system can be so horrifically damaging in so many ways, and demonising stepping away from or leaving it only makes it worse. as much as education is important, your health and well-being are infinitely more so.
it is okay to take breaks. it’s okay to take a year off. it’s okay to leave if that’s what you need to do. dropping out does not make you stupid, nor does it make you a failure. take care of yourself first and foremost. traditional education is not the only way to learn.
life back then mustv been crazy people just thought whatever
omg my worst fear just came true
what on earth makes you feel like you're incomplete? you are crafted from the finest stars, with a built-in imagination, constantly time travelling through daydreams. you are marvelous and magical and curious and capable, a natural disaster, completely human.
