Reposting this because I need to materialize it somewhere.

Dating someone who still respects you when they’re upset is VERY important.

When I was training to be a battered women’s advocate, my supervisor said something that really blew my mind:

“You can always assume one thing about your clients; and that is that they are doing their best. Always assume everyone is doing their best. And if they’re having a day where their best just isn’t that great, or their best doesn’t look like your best, you have to be okay with that.”

Any now whenever anyone in my life, either a friend or a client, frustrates me, disappoints me, or pisses me off, I just tell myself They are doing their best. Their best isn’t that great today, but I have days where my best isn’t that great either. 

Positivity post for mentally ill & disabled people in school who

* Fail classes * Drop classes * Go to a lower level in class * Fail midterms * Can’t do homework * Have frequent breakdowns because of school * Fail finals * Take summer school * Skip days of school * Fail semesters * Push themselves too hard * Take a gap year * Can’t pay attention in class * Need accommodations * Have low GPAs * Give up trying * Drop out of school * Don’t get accepted into college

Academic failure doesn’t mean personal failure! School isn’t everything, and you aren’t a bad person if your grades are low. It isn’t your fault, and you don’t have to feel guilty about it. Your life isn’t ruined. It’ll be okay.
