if your parents bought you a car, don’t ask why i don’t drive yet. if your parents pay for your college, don’t ask why i’m not going to school. if your parents paid for your apartment, don’t tell me i should move out. not everyone gets the handouts that you do.

- Drink a huge glass of water right when you wake up - Wash your face morning and night - Workout earlier in the day - Pick one day to do all of your laundry - Wash your sheets regularly and make your bed daily - If you want a piece of chocolate, eat it - Put away your phone while you do homework, you’ll finish it faster - Spend twenty minutes each day relaxing without a screen in front of your face - Plan meals ahead of time - Eat fresh fruits and vegetables whenever possible - Moisturize when you get out of the shower

I honestly hate how art and media have kind of romanticized the idea of like “going off your meds and being your true self again” because like I started taking antidepressants and like immediately got a new job, found a place to live, improved my relationships with people in my life and completely reconciled with my sort of estranged ex-girlfriend?? Medication can be rad and while I realize that it’s not for everybody I don’t think anything should be trying to convince anyone that being on medication inherently makes you less of who you are

(Most) Medication is for helping you to be you again. The real me isn’t tired by just walking to the train station. The real me is not my anxiety or depression. They don’t define me.

The real me is who I am when I’m not anxious and feeling worthless 24/7.

Medication is supposed to be the chemical equivalent of glasses or a wheelchair, depending on the severity of impairment. It tries to help you compensate for what has been taken, been broken, or is missing.

In particular, i always hear the myth that anti-depressants give you “artificial happiness”… no, no, no. They give your brain the ability to be happy. You won’t always be happy, and sometimes you’ll be sad. But the happiness you’re able to feel when you’re on meds is your own, real, happiness.

SAY IT LOUDER FOR THE NEUROTYPICALS IN THE BACK!!!

I mean this is important for neurotypicals but it’s honestly more important for people who struggle with mental illness and hate being on meds for a variety of reasons (aka me).
