st peter @ the pearly gates: my numbers have you basically 50/50 so if you’ve got any more virtues to profess, now is the time

me: sometimes I thought tumblr posts were fake but I didn’t say anything bc people seemed to be having fun

st peter: go right in

idk, it’s weird understanding the relationship you have with social media but I’ve found that the more I depersonalise with it and put of the things I want to be judged by a wider audience for, it has worked out better for my mental health.

Also finding that not posting selfies or sharing selfies also weirdly helped me with how I perceive myself? My looks? Treating my instagram more exclusively as an art space is much nicer because I prefer people look at what I make. I take pride in what I make. I like how I look too but I guess I don’t like sharing my selfies bc privacy is pretty nice I guess lmao.

Idk, I still like having the personal blog here, I just find that more often then not I work through my feelings in a far more healthier way when I’m working on my art and stuff. This isn’t advice btw like I know every person has a different relationship with their creative work but yeah. There was a time when broadcasting all my crisis would help me. Now I find painting and stuff helps. I much prefer this method bc I’m focused on something else and I can clear my mind quicker.

Also like disengaging with fandom and learning how to like a thing privately is also just a very nice thing that has benefitted my mental health.

Who would have thought that imposing strict rules on yourself regarding to social media would improve the state of your mental health truly not even being sarcastic

See, that’s what the app is perfect for.
