I’m Almost To 2k And That’s Insane, Let Us Commemorate This (close) Milestone With A Peek Into Some

so here’s why i personally didn't like *and* left shifttok. the thing is. it’s not that it’s inherently bad, it’s just… sort of missing the point. like, wasn’t the whole goal to shift? to get out, to go somewhere else, to slip through the cracks of reality like a goddamn pro? but somewhere along the way, it turned into a glorified pinterest board. edits on edits on edits. wattpad drabbles disguised as scripts. playlists that are less about actually shifting and more about curating an aesthetic, a moodboard, a vibe. and suddenly, you’re not shifting, you’re just making content about shifting.

like, i get it. romanticising your dr is half the fun. i did and still do it myself !! who doesn’t want to bask in the idea of their perfect world? but when that becomes the main event, when it overtakes the actual act of shifting, what are we even doing here? it’s like planning a trip, making all the itineraries, buying cute outfits, but then never getting on the plane. just sitting in your room, looking at your suitcase, rewatching your own tiktoks about how fun the trip is gonna be. that’s what shifttok became. this endless loop of people hyping up their drs but not actually going to them.

and maybe that’s the problem. because if you spend too much time making your dr look good instead of actually experiencing it, you start treating it like fiction. like something separate from you, instead of something you’re literally living. people started making edits of their drs like they were making fandom edits of a tv show. like, is this a real place you’re shifting to or is it just your latest hyperfixation? be honest. you spend so much time cooped up on video star or capcut and suddenly you don't remember the last time you affirmed or even thought about shifting.

and i’m not saying you can’t have fun with it. obviously, dream up the most insane, gorgeous, cinematic dr possible. but at some point, you have to ask yourself: am i actually trying to shift? or am i just roleplaying the idea of shifting? because shifttok is great at making shifting look cool. but the second you start seeing your dr as something to be consumed rather than something to be lived, you’ve already lost the plot.

so yeah. i left, and as soon as i did, i started actually shifting. because i actually wanted to do it. not just make a trailer for a movie i’m never gonna watch. does this make sense?????

goal : shifting before i turn 21

Just saw ANOTHER person on shifttok pull a

“Now that it’s 2024 can we all talk about how that shifting thing was fake?”

^^^ and everyone in the comments was saying “I lied” “I actually got diagnosed with schizophrenia” etc etc…

{disclaimer: I’m not trying to come across as annoying and if so just scroll, but I have never in all the three + years I’ve know of shifting have asked for validation (in terms of the validity of shifting) from the community. I’m well aware of how not to rely on external validation.}

So with that out of the way, people who have shifted, if you feel like it can you talk about it in the replies, tell me I’m not insane for this, that I haven’t wasted three years of my life. And I’m not saying deep down I don’t believe it’s real, it’s just shifting, yes is a personal journey, but is often a very isolating and lonely one (at least to me).

∙ a peek inside my vampire diaries closet ☾

── ⟢

i. everyday 𝜗𝜚

☾ lace and frills… ribbons and tights... to be completely honest these six pictures just don’t do my closet any justice. you won’t catch me leaving the house without out an accessory or two ( or ten ). layers upon layers. way to many clothes, but not quite enough.

── ⟢

ii. tops 𝜗𝜚

☾ buttoned downs or random tees found at a thrift store? however am i to choose…

── ⟢

iii. pants 𝜗𝜚

☾ mostly consists of low ( ish ) rise with designs from when i got bored or had to much paint.

── ⟢

iv. skirts 𝜗𝜚

☾ many colors, lengths, patterns. probably the biggest reason i should stop going to thrift stores.

── ⟢

v. formal 𝜗𝜚

☾ something for every occasion.

── ⟢

vi. shoes 𝜗𝜚

☾ generally consists of kitten heels and boots, with the occasional mary jane. lots of red. often found with diy charms and trinkets. trust that they are always paired with cute socks + tights.

Why can’t I find any one who shifts to the vampire diaries. Like this show is popular and yet all I can find are old posts that aren’t active any more. 🙄

What do you need to hear regarding your shifting journey?

{Ok so I’ve never really done something like this before, I’ve really only done readings for myself and my sister, but I thought this would be fun to do anyways!}

And just like any reading take what resonates and leave what doesn’t, this isn’t meant to be taken seriously. ✧.* ✧.* ✧.*

Oh my god I got the worst headache doing this reading. Slow down ok, take a deep breath. You guys have been really stressed lately. For a lot of you your shifting journey has been a long hard one. You are wanting to see the results from your hard work, but it might be time for a break and to prioritize your well being. Spend some time outside, reflect and do something for yourself.

It might also be time to really sit with yourself and figure out what YOU want not what others want. You are such a hard worker, and it might be scary, but it might me time for you to change something in your life to help reach your larger goals.

For a lot of you it seems you have a warped idea of what shifting is and what it takes for you to achieve it. You might be forcing something that deep down you know isn’t working anymore. Shifting is not a magic trick, no one is going to hold your hand through it, or give you the “key” to it. YOU are the key. You have the world at your fingertips and are still waiting for something or someone to get you to your goals. You are the only thing that’s going to make you shift. You are limitless.

It is time to understand, even though it might be scary, that you have infinite possibilities. You are all you need. It might seem easier to stay on your current path, but changing something right now whether it’s your desired reality, you mindset or just taking a break from shifting in general, it may help you start to see clearly and bring you closer to your desires.

Calmer energy compared to pile one. You might have some trouble focusing during shifting attempts or maybe you zone out through out the day thinking of your desired reality.

For some of you, you are newer to the shifting community. You are very interested in what shifting has to offer, but for some of you, you might see shifting as a “joke” or something that might not be real even though you want it to be. You might find yourself stuck fantasizing about your desired reality instead of actually wanting to be there.

Some of you might have a lot of questions when it comes to shifting. It might be time to immerse yourself fully into this community and ask those questions and have a better foundation to what shifting is. Some of you might even be scared to ask these questions, but it’s ok! We were all new to this community before, go learn about what shifting actually is.

Just be careful of what information you are taking in, and take everything with a grain of salt so you can carefully set your self up for success. You have all the information you need at your fingertips. You need to learn to trust yourself and your abilities and go with the flow. It might even be beneficial to look into the Law of assumption.

Researching the things that make you curious and confused could offer you clarity and stabilize your journey. Letting in others to help you along your journey might be what you need as well. Even though you might be fearful, we all need someone to talk to, even if it’s just one person!

What I want - Fromis_9

Much like pile one, a lot of you are very frustrated in your journey. Some might even have resentments towards their past selves for choices they made. Some of you even feel wronged. Some of you guys might have had the misfortune of being on early shifttok and still hold a lot of that mis information.

This group was hard to read for, it seems a lot of you might be unwilling to change your ways. But unlike pile one a lot of you need to take action and stop standing in the sidelines as others get what they desire.

You guys know what you want, maybe for some of you, you are just scared to actually have it. Some of you need to ask yourself “what am I willing to do to get what I want, how far am I willing to go.”

On the other hand a lot of you need to shed your skin and start over. Let go of old misinformation, it does not serve you, slow down. Some of you might even think deep down you are not deserving of your desires, but this is so far from the truth.

There might need to be a period of reflection and understanding that you are worthy of everything and more and nothing should get in your way. You guys are stuck in old chapters of your life, stop resisting and see your life change!

I hope anyone who read this enjoyed their reading, and good luck on your shifting journeys! I also pulled the magician card in every reading, it seems a lot of people are not understanding their potential and how easily they can access it. This was really fun I might do this again in the future!

i need shifting story times rn guys

making myself flat chested in all my drs because i have massive hyonkers in here and i hate it

Shifting Diary #6 !!! ✾

(Ok so this is really just a manifestation/LOA post but I’ll get into that later)

I know that a lot of people differentiate shifting and manifesting… And I am no expert on these topics but shifting IS manifesting and manifesting IS shifting.

They are the literally same thing. It doesn’t matter if you:

“manifested” your desired grades in school or

“Shifted” to a Harry Potter desired reality

I just see a lot of people talk about these things as if they are not literally the same thing. Like a lot of people deeming “smaller” things, things closely related to their previous life as manifesting. And “bigger” things as shifting. And really I just am saying this because I never understood it and because for my actual entry today I know some people might be confused. Anyways…

The real reason I’m writing this entry is because of how easy my thoughts are materializing in the 3D lately ꕥ (these might seem like small things but idrc)

For example yesterday I washed my hair and I went to go comb it after but it was really tangled and I was getting really annoyed because this whole chunk of my hairs tangles would not budge no matter what I did but then I just thought “my hair is so easy to comb, this comb I use literally combs through my hair like butter” and right after those thoughts I very easily combed through my hair even though there were these really bad tangles in the back.

And then today, my sister had ordered these sweaters for our cat and they were supposed to be delivered today but we just didn’t know when. My sister wanted them to come as soon as possible and kept checking out the window to see if they arrived. And when I had to go pull the trash can in and take the trash out I looked and mindlessly noticed how it wasn’t there, but I didn’t dwell on it, I just let it pass casually and thought “it’s whatever the package is basically already here.” And I let it go and started thinking of other things (tbh I was just think of my vampire diaries reality) and then… after I finished taking the trash out as I walked back inside the mailman pulled up with the package!

Another one: earlier I was playing DTI with my sister (I’m actually addicted) and I did something really stupid and was playing in the wrong server (my sister was in a different server) and since I couldn’t finish my outfit I was kinda upset but then I just thought “it’s whatever I’ll just get the theme again today and I’ll get it in a pro server” and like less than fifteen minutes later my sister joined a pro server and it had the theme I wanted to redo!

There’s been other things here and there the last couple of days but those have stood out the most I guess. Anyways I’m just really coming to the realization of how easy all of this really is and wanted to share these with whoever comes across this.

Well good luck to everyone with all things shifting !!!

❥ your imagination creates reality. your imagination is reality. whatever you decide is real in your imagination is real. so like,,get it together maybe?? you hold all the power in the world, bask in the feeling that gives you. let it become your natural feeling.
