Can I become Fluent in ______ in ______ months/weeks/days? Â No. You canât.Â
Can I learn Japanese from just watching Anime/Korean from Kpop/Chinese from Wuxia films? Not on your life. Do you only speak the english you know from Spongebob? NâSYNC? The 300? Didnât think so.
What about Rosetta Stone? For $180-$399 dollars? Are you insane? The program is built to teach you the Romantic languages. Â If you buy Rosetta stone for $400, and pass up every free resource on this list, I doubt your desire to actually learn anything. Donât do it to yourself. That is a lot of money you probably wonât get back.
But I heard that Chinese/Japanese/Korean/Arabic/etc is really difficult: Well if over a billion Chinese people can speak Chinese, why canât you? No really, donât let something like this bother you. No, this is not the ease of moving from a English to a Romance language or German, but hey, if you wanted to learn German (and all those ridiculous cases) youâd be doing that.Â
But what about ______? I have knowledge on resources mostly limited to JPN/CHI/KOR classes. This is a participatory list, which I am more than grateful to take submissions for.

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- âI 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.â It doesnât always work because of course mental health isnât that easy, but this is part of whatâs called mindfulness (they say this all the time in therapy)
Being mindful of these is what puts you on the path to recovery. If youâre mindful, you are able to live in that moment and try your best to remember these better options.
I swear to god, I donât 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 donât 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, soâŠ.a neurotypical women didnât come up with this.)
I have clinical OCD and for me, exposure therapyâa version of âdo the oppositeââhas been fundamental. Iâve had huge improvement in the last year, but Iâm 100% clear that if I hadnât done my best to follow this protocol Iâd be fucked. I have a lot of empathy for that moment when youâre 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.Â
Itâs hard to do. Iâve weathered panic attacks trying to follow this protocol. But Iâve 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 parrotâdeliberately exposing myself to âcontaminationâ has helped me heal. I canât speak for people with other issues, but this has helped my anxiety and OCD.Â
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 thereâs something morally wrong with having the flu. However, if youâre âillâ 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 âcureâ 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 ânuerotypicalâ - when she was posting about the relief she got from being on an medication to treat her illness.Â
I saw another post going around tumblr that said something along the line of âyou control your thoughts, why not choose to have happy thoughtsâ which again was shot down as ânuerotypicalâ but while you donât have control over what thoughts come into your mind, you absolutely can and should choose to have happy thoughts. In DBT we call this âpositive self talkâ.
Iâm 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 âno one likes youâ and answer back âplenty of people like you, you donât need everyone to like you, especially if the relationship doesnât make you happyâ, to respond to the thought âIâm so worthlessâ with âyouâre really great and have accomplished somethingâÂ
And itâs not easy to challenge your thoughts, itâs a skill thatâs learned and itâs hard to force yourself to think something that doesnât seem authentic or even seems wrong to think - itâs 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 patternsÂ
That isnât âso neurotypicalâ thatâs recovery.Â
Not shaming mental illness doesnât mean shaming RECOVERY.
Pro-Recovery isnât anti-disability.Â
Do not shame healthy behaviors as âneurotypicalâ.
Learning healthy behaviors and taking steps to treat mental illness and disorders including taking medication if thatâs what works for you is important. You shouldnât be ashamed if you have mental illness, but you shouldnât say âwell Iâm not neurotypical therefor I canât do anything to get betterâ - 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.Â
DBT can be an incredibly helpful tool for lots of folks.
