Taylor Swift Wrote A List Of Things She's Experienced Before Turning 30 And Here's What We Learned

"I think it’s healthy for your self-esteem to need less internet praise to appease it, especially when three comments down you could unwittingly see someone telling you that you look like a weasel that got hit by a truck and stitched back together by a drunk taxidermist," Taylor says.

"My fear of violence has continued into my personal life," she says. "I carry QuikClot army grade bandage dressing, which is for gunshot or stab wounds. Websites and tabloids have taken it upon themselves to post every home address I’ve ever had online. You get enough stalkers trying to break into your house and you kind of start prepping for bad things."

"Coming forward is an agonising thing to go through. I know because my sexual assault trial was a demoralising, awful experience," she writes. "I believe victims because I know firsthand about the shame and stigma that comes with raising your hand and saying, 'This happened to me.' It’s something no one would choose for themselves."

"I still have recurring flashbacks of sitting at lunch tables alone or hiding in a bathroom stall, or trying to make a new friend and being laughed at. In my twenties I found myself surrounded by girls who wanted to be my friend. So I shouted it from the rooftops, posted pictures, and celebrated my newfound acceptance into a sisterhood, without realising that other people might still feel the way I did when I felt so alone," Taylor writes about her infamous ~squad~.

"A few years ago, someone started an online hate campaign by calling me a snake on the internet," she says about her drama with Kim Kardashian. "The fact that so many people jumped on board with it led me to feeling lower than I’ve ever felt in my life, but I can’t tell you how hard I had to keep from laughing every time my 63-foot inflatable cobra named Karyn appeared onstage in front of 60,000 screaming fans."

"Invoking racism and provoking fear through thinly-veiled messaging is not what I want from our leaders, and I realised that it actually is my responsibility to use my influence against that disgusting rhetoric," she says. "I’m going to do more to help. We have a big race coming up next year."

Taylor recommends "Pimm’s cups, Aperol spritzes, Old-Fashioneds, and Mojitos".

Something tells me Taylor Swift doesn't rent a one bedroom like me and can probably nail things into her walls, but I will personally be taking this one on board.

"I take L-theanine, which is a natural supplement to help with stress and anxiety. I also take magnesium for muscle health and energy," writes Taylor Swift, aka The Mom Friend.

"After my teen years and early twenties of sleeping in my makeup ... I felt like I needed to start being nicer to my skin," Taylor says. "I now moisturise my face every night and put on body lotion after I shower, not just in the winter, but all year round, because why can’t I be soft during all the seasons?!"
