Thank you John Green for bringing your book to life. Thank you for the 2000's coded and styled cinematography that is such a breath of nostalgia from the current modern formats. Thank you for the focus on friendship. Thank you for the realistic and honest descriptions of a mental health disorder. But most of all, Thank you for the hope.

Daisy’s style

How pretty the movie is

Davis taking Ada to see her dream uni?? So romantic

John Green’s cameo 👌👌

Turtles All the Way Down, 2024

[kittenkes]

I watched Turtles all the Way Down, and even though my brand of OCD is slightly different than Aza's, I've never felt more seen by an adaptation of OCD.

I want to beg every person in my life to watch it so that maybe they will understand me better. Right now, OCD makes me feel.... crazy (to use Aza's words).

For a while, my hypochondria and illogical paranoia about things made others treat me differently. It made it easier for people to ignore my boundaries because everything became framed as "You're just paranoid." It was... really hard. It's still hard.

If I felt sick or I felt as if something was wrong, everyone's immediate response was, "she's just having another episode." What I felt was invalidated. It was like a reverse gaslighting.

It's still a fine line between hypochindria and what I'm actually feeling in my body. What if this time something is wrong? But I'm ignored? But if people indulge in my paranoia, will I just get worse again?

Anyways, thank you, John Green for doing what others couldn't.
