Honestly the thing that helps me (personally, this isn't professional) the most with big overwhelming care tasks that seem impossible is honestly setting the bar as low as possible. Dishes piled up? I'll take literally only one thing when I go to the kitchen for something. Can't bathe and feeling gross? Use bath wipes for some immediate improvement. Too exhausted to work out? Do one single lie-down or seated stretch. Can't clean everything? Focus one tiny area only.

Be reasonable with yourself about your expectations. No "I should be able to do this". One thing is better than no things. It counts. Plus even if it's small it can prove to your brain that you can in fact accomplish things and a quick win rules when you're down.

#this is at myself too I push myself way too hard and wind up feeling incompetent and injuring myself #internalized ableism #disability stuff #depression stuff #can apply to anything #the thing people add to this is like challenge yourself to add more but I disagree I think you should limit it so it never feels impossible

somewhere out there today there’s a depressed person doing their laundry. and they’re doing it incredibly slowly. they’re taking breaks; not because they care about themselves, but because their body just keeps collapsing. this is the only thing they’re doing today. and the whole time, their head is filled with thoughts about how they suck at this, and they shouldve done it weeks ago, and they’d rather just be in bed. but they’re doing it. and they might give up halfway through. their clothes might go mouldy from being left in the washer so long. the fresh laundry might gather dust from being sat in a corner of the room, unfolded. but they tried. and that’s not good or bad; it doesnt make them better or worse than those who didn’t try. it just makes them different than they were a week ago. 🌹🌹

wish i could just say that i hate myself, and i wish i was dead without someone going "omg nooo". sometimes that's just how i feel, and i want to just say it without any commentary on it. i don't want to hear positive affirmations that are just empty words anyway. i just want to state how i truly feel and move on.
