less “therapy is for everyone!” more advice on how to recognize when therapy is helping you and when it is harming you, more educating people on their rights and what they can do when their rights have been violated, more advice on navigating finding a therapist that isn’t only applicable to private practice situations

less “don’t forget to take your meds!” more sharing of studies on the effects of psychiatric medication (wanted and unwanted/positive and negative), more discussion of how to document your experiences on medications so you can understand how they are effecting you, more support for people struggling to navigate getting prescribed/using/going off of psychiatric medication

less “always reblog the suicide hotline!“ more sharing information on what happens if you do actually call one of these lines (i.e. will they send the cops to your house), more teaching individuals and communities how to help someone in crisis without involving police or hospitalization, more open discussions of how to share what we feel and make others feel seen, understood, and supported when it comes to extremely difficult feelings and situations

about anger

how am I supposed to know what is good for me? I've always been the one hurting me the most.

ALL OF THESE REQUIRE GETTING OUT OF BED

I was born without a seat at the table.

People who know things about themselves are insane to me. I could partake in doing a hobby several times and still be unsure if I like it or not. I'm just doing it because it's something to do. I don't know what I like or what to do so I'm okay throwing myself anywhere and then when I do I'm like well whatever this is fine

bpd culture is wondering if you're being yourself or you're actually just pretending

you can tell me a million times that i’m not a burden to you and i still wouldn’t believe it

unfortunately a lot of the corny self help advice turns out to be true but the thing is you have to come to those conclusions yourself otherwise it just sounds dismissive and dumb

curious about those of you who are or were treatment resistant, did you ever try spirituality to help yourself? what did you get from it? I'm at the "I'll try anything" stage...

I was interested in the occult as a teenager, I still do tarot readings occasionally. Recently, I've been watching Healthy Gamer/Dr. K on YouTube who often mentions Hindu/Buddhist principles, which makes sense as a surprising amount of Western mental health care comes from Eastern practices (though perhaps not properly utilised given the lack of cultural context). My therapist has said the way I talk about nature seems spiritual as it makes me think about the bigger picture and gives me perspective sometimes. So I'm interested in your experiences.

What really sucks is when you know you should be doing something but physically/mentally cannot bring yourself to do it no matter how important doing that thing is.

I always say I’d do anything for the days I don’t feel anything so intense but even feeling nothing feels so heavy
