I told one of my best friends I haven’t felt like myself in our latest encounters and she then admitted she doesn’t feel like I’m as present as I used to be. I’m trying to figure out how to get my authenticity back. I need to feel like myself again.

Throughout my past relationships I’ve noticed a pattern where I tend to lose myself. Whether it be to “fit” my partner better or simply just neglecting the things that make me, me, for a period whilst in a relationship. In my time sharing this experience with others, I’ve found that many often relate. I believe that the best thing you can do after a breakup is to become fully in touch with yourself again. My personal outlet happens to be writing, putting all those feelings down pen to paper has been one of the most cathartic things I can do after a breakup. Whether I’m spinning those words into a poem, a story or just a garbled mess of words on a page, I’ve found it really helps. So really, whatever your creative outlet is, dive deeper into that and it will almost always ease the pain.

So much of us can get lost in the relationship with others that we can give up parts of ourselves. Do those things again that you once did before you met 'what's-their-name'?
Look in a mirror and speak to your flection as a friend. Giving yourself the advice and support as a friend to yourself.
The longest relationship that you will ever have is with with yourself. Show up. Tell yourself the truth. Be authentic. Be yourself. Love and support yourself.

i love being alone. i know who i am when i'm alone and i love myself when i'm alone. when i'm around people it's easy to forget and i get lost and aimless.
how do you share parts of yourself without feeling overexposed? even just sharing creative work makes me feel like it's not mine any more and makes me doubt the part of myself that went into making it. but i also feel so stagnant when i'm not putting anything out into the world. where is the balance? how do you deal with this?

I feel like so many elements of my early twenties are making a return. Realizing I've never truly grew out of my old music taste. Many of my mystic visions are now coming into existence. I didn't even know how big they were until now. I'm curating my camera roll with intention. Craving pure dopamine. Collecting amulets. Choosing my words like magic spells. Feeling present inside my body. A quiet rebirth but also a return to form.

I’ve just realized how much of an intentional listener I am. I’ve been trying to listen to different artists and genres but it kinda bothers me to just let the music play in a very casual way. Maybe that’s why I usually listen to same songs over and over again because it’s easier to be listening to them *intentionally* even if I’m busy doing something else at the same time.

It’s summer. The air is dry and it’s as hot as it could possibly get. Everyone has cool haircuts and smokes lots of cigarettes.
