Wow... I didn't realize how much I needed to read that until I did. Thank you, BP!

So true

Me too!

... answering an email, answering the phone, answering the door, answering a text, waiting on delivery, waiting on a package.... drugs. I mean prescription medication. Ironically though, you have to get over this fight or flight response several times just to get to a doctor to get the drugs lol

Depression often only shows when you are alone.

😭

My brain is out to get me

Same and I’m looking at this through a screen :P

Less than nothing. You deserve punishment.

Oh, never ever ever do that. It’s not worth it.

Treat yourself to chocolate now

I feel seen! (I always apologize and step to the side…)

I've never felt more seen.

Oh this is so true. Like yeah, they love me - I get good grades, I'm pretty good at my hobbies, that's good. Oh, no, they definitely hate me - I'm recovering from sh and attempts, I have a pretty bad ed, my mental health is absolutely terrible, I have no friends and wow audhd on top of that, how great!

But the benefit of the first idea is being able to fix all the mistakes with the knowledge of experience. You can't just pretend to remember not to clean the guttering on thursday when you're 52.

YES!!!

This is me. But let me encourage anyone who is going through this...it gets easier. It won't define you forever. You are just beginning to discover how beautiful you are free and unburdened. You really can, and will, be truly happy. You can, and will, make meaningful relationships. You can, and will, learn to love yourself the way you need to. Never give up.

Was having an argument in public with an ex and I was bawling my eyes out. Didn’t have any tissues so was wiping my tears on my sweater. A random stranger sitting nearby randomly offered me some tissues and I immediately started crying even harder at how kind this random stranger was to me (while my ex was just screaming at me the whole time, not helping at all). It’s forever going to be some random act of kindness I’ll remember.

This. My parents taught me how to be a good liar and be defesive all the time. Got to a point where i would lie just bec i could or it's more convenient to do so. Took years to unlearn this

I feel seen.

Both? You could love yourself for understanding quadratic equationry, even. I'd consider it a win-win. But then again - it's school. Don't expect too much, but expect a disapointment.

ink blots are real? I thought that was only a thing in movies

I'm good at anxiety in the way McDonalds are good at haute cuisine. Yeah I've got loads of it but none of it is any good.

Oh you have agoraphobia? Have you tried jogging?

Okay who replaced my screen with a mirror?

Sure did.

but without the adorable part

And of all else fails then there's the magical replay button in my brain that will find every past instance of hurt feelings...

Um, if your mental health is affecting your physical health, I’d don’t think you need to pretend as if you’re sick; you ARE sick. Do as this post suggests and heal yourself up as best you can!

Damn I got distracted and missed the line. Okay let's rewind. Argh I did it again. Just stop and listen this time. Rewind.

Avoid involuntary hospitalisation. Get yourself hospitalised volunterily, it'll change your life.

So true the world could be on fire and my husband would just keep calmly snacking and watch it burn.

When I get home after being away longer than a day, obeying the cat's request first is granted. She has the right to command me to where she'd like me to be then, and I happily follow her orders because she knows best anyway. So, basically, I always plan that we'd play Butterfly (a cloth butterfly attached to a stick via rubber rope), and that I'd give her a treat, like Crème de poisson or so, and then, basically, hang out on the bed for 1...2 hours, where I pet her, and she falls asleep, and I, too, and then we wake up and continue loving each other. She's so nice, has such a perfect fur, ... nice, lovely cat, she is ...

Or you could just be like me and fall asleep the couch every night, then wake up at 4am and stumble to your bed like a zombie.

yes

oof

No, I just realised I could totally coast and school all these fools, until I reached the crossover point where you needed to work hard to be the best, but had never learnt how to do so.

Yep checks out alright 👍

my dog gets all excited and wants to play when i'm singing. i'm usually singing when i'm happy. I'm usually happy when i'm going well in my video games. my dog getting excited makes me laugh which stops the singing. but I get it. I totally agree
