I don’t know who needs to hear this, but:

It’s ok.

You took action to remedy the immediate problem. That’s a huge step.

Now you’re grieving for the current state and how it could have gotten this bad. It’s ok to cry and accept that your past self made mistakes, when you’re able to you should forgive your past self. Take as long as you need to do that.

What comes next is getting to your feet and just fix it up a little. Doesn’t have to be a lot and it won’t all get done overnight. All that’s needed is just 1% everyday. It’s ok to take a break, it’s ok to go slower, but a little progress everyday and you’ll get there.

Don’t blame yourself for systemic societal problems that require systemic societal solutions. You’re playing into their hand when you do that.

• ExxonMobil wants you to feel responsible for climate change so it doesn’t have to
• Big Oil Is Trying to Make Climate Change Your Problem to Solve. Don’t Let Them
• The companies polluting the planet have spent millions to make you think carpooling and recycling will save us

It’s OK dog. The thing is, you figured it out. You’re better off than those that never figured it out. Now you just gotta move on from where you’re at.

Choices - we make them, chances - we take them

Some are mistakes, some we celebrate them

We don’t look back, cause so much we facin

I always stay proud of myself, I’m yelling, “Fuck regret!”

Aw, poor doggy. ☹️

It’s okay, buddy.

pat pat pat

Yo you did the right thing at the end. It takes guts to admit that you have made some wrong decisions.
