Caffeine tonic For maximum regrowth, applying the caffeine tonic every day is generally recommended.…

i don't know who needs to hear this, but guilt, self-hatred and shame are not sustainable sources of growth and healing. you can't hate yourself into feeling better, or being better. you can't repeatedly punish yourself for your flawed humanity and expect wholesome results.
Get over the shame and the lack of confidence and the fear of failure and the imposter syndrome. Nobody cares. Some people are cruel and mean and love to watch others fail. So what? Do you really want to prove them right? Get the fuck up, we’re chasing our dreams like our lives depend on it because, in case you forgot, they do.
100 Hobbies To Try
Update: I wrote this at like 1 AM, so I was kind of half-asleep lol. A few people brought up that there were a bunch of duplicates in the list, sorry about that! I redid the whole list and ordered them alphabetically to avoid any repeating words. Hope you find the new list much more helpful!

As uni students, we often find ourselves stressed out about our academic responsibilities, projects deadlines, and even financial concerns.

Needing things doesn’t make me too much It makes me human
You deserve to make room for yourself the same way you do for others.
⨯ . ⁺ ✦ ⊹ ꙳ ⁺ ‧ ⨯. ⁺ ✦ ⊹ . * ꙳ ✦ ⊹
Just like others, you are a person! If you are struggling to love yourself, consider how you treat yourself. Would you authentically love someone who talks to you the way you do? How can you expect to love yourself when you wouldn't even be friends with someone who treats others that way? It is an act of self-disrespect to ignore your own needs and desires.
I don't say this to make you feel ashamed of your self-talk, but rather to invoke a look outside for a change. We are always looking inside ourselves so often that we don't notice our simple worth as a person, a human, a being on the earth. Millions of people consider themselves the one exception.
You deserve to eat yummy foods like our friends do. You deserve to be treated with respect like our peers do. You deserve to feel the sun on your face the same way a flower does. You deserve to forgive yourself for things that you regret. You deserve more than "I'm used to it." You deserve to move your body the same way a dog deserves to be taken on a walk. You deserve to live a fulfilling life where your needs are met.
It's time to apologize to yourself. It's time to take accountability for all the ways you antagonized yourself. It's time to mend the relationship with your own body and your own mind. You don't have to keep fighting with yourself, you are allowed to repair things that have been broken. Offer yourself grace and kindness, just as you would for others. Forgive yourself by making it up to yourself.
WAYS TO HELP PALESTINE 🇵🇸
uscpr.org
USCPR has ways for you to donate to Palestinians in need, plenty of information about the crimes against Palestine if you are uninformed or want to know more, along with protest information and pre-written scripts you can use to call your officials with
linktr.ee/MedicalAidforPalestinians.org
Site for donating for medical aid for Palestinians, along with a few other links to help take action and stay informed. Remember that even if you can't donate a lot, just a bit helps
matwprojectusa.org
Donation site for medical, food, and water aid in Palestine and other areas as well.
palestiniansocialfund.com
Unconditional funding for food growth in Palestine through grassroots
Not a link but something that can help: test "resist" to 50409 in reference to bill HR 3103, it is a bot that will help you write out a letter on your phone to send to congress, senate, and president if you'd rather not make a call!
Here is a list of some very major brands to boycott, which DOES MAKE A DIFFERENCE:
McDonalds, Starbucks, Disney, especially Disney+, Coco Cola, Victoria Secret, Puma, Nike, Walmart
There are MANY more brands that support the genocide, but these are the most major. Research is good!!
doctorswithoutborders.org
You can donate here to help provide support to the standing hospitals and health facilities in Gaza
pcrf.net
A children's relief fund that helps to provide crucial life-saving medical relief and aid
unrwausa.org
Medical support, trauma relief, and food assistance in Gaza! They also have an easy way for you to email congress
If you're unsure of how to check if something is false news or misinformation or not, apnews.com/ap-fact-check is a site that is stepping up to the misinformation given about Gaza and correcting other news sources!
Alhamdulillah a ceasefire has finally been agreed upon but unfortunately it is only for 5 days. As frustrated as I am that it’s only for such a short amount of time, I’m also relieved for the people of Gaza to have a bit of a break to breathe, and they’ll be getting unlimited amount of aid coming in thank God! Praying that a miracle happens and this ceasefire stays forever and praying the IDF do not go against their word and break the agreement (because I very much struggle to trust anything the Israeli govt says)
