Me, my thoughts and I.


Lena Dunham, that special and eternally criticized person who created GIRLS, says in the trailer for the show’s season three “It is really liberating to say no to shit you hate”. Damn she’s right.

However Lena, it is also very liberating to say ALL the shit you hate.

Sometimes we don’t realize it, but we accumulate all these small (or big) thoughts that figure their way to stay in our minds for years and it doesn’t matter how tolerant one can be. You just hate those things. You hate them so fucking much.

And the problem isn’t that you hate them, the problem is that you can’t take them out of your mind. It is a problem because it doesn’t let you work the way you have to. If you want to enjoy life, even with its misfortunes, you need to get rid of those thoughts. The issue comes when you start that conversation between you and them:

AnaP: Hey, how are you doing? I’m sure you are very comfortable and all, but I think you should really leave…
Thought: What?
AnaP: Yeah… like… I’m not functioning well with you here. I don’t sleep, I don’t eat… I lost 10pounds you know? I can only wear two pair of jeans, 5 years ago that would have been amazing but I look like a corpse now…
Thought: I’m not leaving
AnaP: I… I know it’s going to be difficult, but… honestly… I’m not really enjoying life as I wanted to and I am pretty sure it is because of you. I need you to go.
Thought: That is not happening.


And there they stay… Motherfuckers.

And then you hate yourself. It becomes a bacteria that starts in a small part of your brain until it covers it all, not leaving a space for you to be strong and repeat the conversation until they decide to be rational and leave your brain where they plan to stay for the rest of their life, or actually, your life.

But sometimes a situation arise in the most unexpected (or expected moment) and if you keep renting those thoughts in your brain and letting them sleep, walk, work, eat with you, then you’ll be completely fucked. So you better open they’re room door and kick them out. Don’t ask for it, just tell them:


GET THE FUCK OUT!
