The active voice: Jane ate the cookie.

The passive voice: The cookie was eaten by Jane.

The passive-aggressive voice: I don't mind that Jane ate the cookie, even though it was her second cookie and the rest of us only got one each.

no offense but this is literally the most neurotypical thing i have ever seen

Uhhhh… no. This is what they teach you in therapy to deal with BPD and general depression. When I got out of the hospital after hurting myself a second time, I got put into intensive outpatient program for people being released from mental hospitals as a way to monitor and help transition them into getting them efficient long-term care. This is something they stressed, especially for people with general depression. When you want to stay at home and hide in your bed, forcing yourself to do the opposite is what is helpful. For me, who struggles with self harm- “I want to really slice my arm up. The opposite would be to put lotion on my skin (or whatever would be better, like drawing on my skin) the opposite is the better decision.” It doesn’t always work because of course mental health isn’t that easy, but this is part of what’s called mindfulness (they say this all the time in therapy)

Being mindful of these is what puts you on the path to recovery. If you’re mindful, you are able to live in that moment and try your best to remember these better options.

I swear to god, I don’t get why some people on this website straight up reject good recovery help like this because either they a)have never been in therapy so don’t understand in context how to use these coping tactics. Or b)want to insist that all therapists and psych doctors are neurotypical and have zero idea what they are talking about. (Just so ya know, they teach this in DBT, the therapy used to help BPD. The psychologist who came up with DBT actually had BPD, so….a neurotypical women didn’t come up with this.)

I have clinical OCD and for me, exposure therapy–a version of “do the opposite”–has been fundamental. I’ve had huge improvement in the last year, but I’m 100% clear that if I hadn’t done my best to follow this protocol I’d be fucked. I have a lot of empathy for that moment when you’re just too tired to fight and you check the stove or you wash your hands or go back to the office at midnight to make sure the door is locked. But the kind of therapeutic approach outlined above has been crucial for me.

It’s hard to do. I’ve weathered panic attacks trying to follow this protocol. But I’ve gotten remarkable results. I was afraid to touch the surfaces in my house, okay? I was afraid to touch my own feet, afraid to touch my parrot–deliberately exposing myself to “contamination” has helped me heal. I can’t speak for people with other issues, but this has helped my anxiety and OCD.

I feel that tumblr, in an effort to be accepting of mental illness, has become anti-recovery. Having a mental illness does not make you a bad person. There is nothing morally wrong with having a mental illness anymore than more than there’s something morally wrong with having the flu. However, if you’re “ill” physically or mentally, something is wrong in the sense that you are unwell and to alleviate that you should try to get better. While there is not “cure” for mental illness, there are ways to get better.

There was a post on tumblr where someone with ADHD posted about how much you can get done when you focus and was attacked for posting about being “nuerotypical” - when she was posting about the relief she got from being on an medication to treat her illness.

I saw another post going around tumblr that said something along the line of “you control your thoughts, why not choose to have happy thoughts” which again was shot down as “nuerotypical” but while you don’t have control over what thoughts come into your mind, you absolutely can and should choose to have happy thoughts. In DBT we call this “positive self talk”.

I’m in DBT to help treat PTSD stemming from child abuse. The abuse and abandonment I experienced destroyed my self esteem and created a lot of anxiety over upsetting other people. DBT has taught me to recognize when my thoughts are distorting realty ‘no one likes you’ and answer back ‘plenty of people like you, you don’t need everyone to like you, especially if the relationship doesn’t make you happy’, to respond to the thought ‘I’m so worthless’ with ‘you’re really great and have accomplished something’

And it’s not easy to challenge your thoughts, it’s a skill that’s learned and it’s hard to force yourself to think something that doesn’t seem authentic or even seems wrong to think - it’s hard to be encouraging towards yourself when you hate yourself - but you force yourself to be aware of your thoughts and push back when you fall into unhealthy patterns

That isn’t “so neurotypical” that’s recovery.

Not shaming mental illness doesn’t mean shaming RECOVERY.

Pro-Recovery isn’t anti-disability.

Do not shame healthy behaviors as “neurotypical”.

Learning healthy behaviors and taking steps to treat mental illness and disorders including taking medication if that’s what works for you is important. You shouldn’t be ashamed if you have mental illness, but you shouldn’t say ‘well I’m not neurotypical therefor I can’t do anything to get better’ - while there is no cure for mental illness, there is a lot you can do to get better, to function better, to manage your mental illness and be safer, happier, and healthier for it.

SUMMARY OF WHATS HAPPENING IN GREECE

I can understand how people may get confused on what’s going on in Greece and why it’s such a big deal. The articles I’ve read on it have been very complex and hard to understand so you sort of give up on trying to get it, even I’m still having troubles getting it but I’ll try to explain as simply and best as I can, bear with me. Greece entered the euro in 2001 but the whole shared currency idea was a bad idea in the first place because if you have a poorer countries like Greece who have high unemployment rates, well they need to print more money making the euro less valuable and making exports cheaper so countries will buy from them and tourism increases because it’s cheaper but this is a problem when you have richer countries like Germany who have a low unemployment rate, want export prices to be higher and print less money so the euro would be more valuable, this is a problem because there’s only one currency that can’t accommodate for both ends of the scale. That’s the first problem. For some time Greece flourished although before 2008 there was a lot of spending going on by the Greek government (military, public sector jobs, pensions, the 2004 Olympics and other social benefits), so to begin with, the Greek government was spending more then they were receiving. After the 2008 financial crisis, Greece owed a lot of money. In 2010 Greece was locked out of financial markets and the only way thought back in was borrowing money of the European Central Bank, euro zone countries and the IMF. Greece was given two bailouts, one of 110 billion euros and the second was 130 billion euros. These bailouts were not without consequences. These countries and banks and whatnot made the Greek government force austerity on the people. This means higher taxes, lower incomes, pensions, health care and social services were reduced and it created devastation among the Greek population. Unemployment and suicide rates are at an all time high because people can’t afford to live. This austerity plan only made things worse for Greece and the people of Greece. Greece now owes about 320 billion euros. Countries and funds and banks and what not are refusing debt relief even though Greece has no way to pay off the debt. Now the government is making the people vote either yes or no in this referendum. Yes is to keep going with this austerity plan and keep growing this debt basically and no is to possibly (not certainly) go back to the old currency the drachma and maybe leave the eurozone (none of this is 100% certain). No one has really been told what will happen 100% whatever the outcome so that’s what people fear. There are fears of civil unrest and poverty (even more so then now). Either way both outcomes of the referendum aren’t good, it’s like choosing out of two evils. It’s a little more complex then this explanation and I urge people to go look into it more because I know I would have left bits out but it’s just to get a basic understanding of this issue.
