i love when ppl who constantly use self deprecating humor interact with me, theyre never sure how to react. theyre like “lol well we all hate ourselves anyways” and im like “no, im sexy as hell actually” like oil and water everytime

Self-appreciating humor even when u 100% don’t believe what you’re saying is legitimately such an esteem-booster & i’d recommend everyone to try and replace deprecating jokes with exaggeratedly-positive & validating ones whenever u can

And tbh, it’s funnier/more comfortable for everyone involved anyway. Like, failing spectacularly at something but going “lol y’all WISH you had my talents” instead? Hilarious. Its funny, alleviates the pressure on other ppl to validate your negativity, AND even when what you’re saying “isn’t true” your brain still responds to hearing positive input & your attitude towards yourself & your situation becomes so much healthier after a while. This kind of thing has been proven to improve mental health & curb self-harming tendencies, as well as contribute to healthier social environments ;0;

Yes I do, actually 

we all just need to emulate the raw confidence of the kid who has the power of god AND anime on his side
