Therapists are just…. Common sense filters

Me: yeah so I just don’t have the energy to get up and make myself a sandwich or wait for something to cook so I just. Don’t

Her: why don’t you just eat the sandwich components without putting them together

Me:

Her: you can just eat a handful of cheese and some sandwich meat. You don’t have to make a sandwich.

Me:

Me: what

Therapists finding loopholes for mental illness things is one of my favorite things about dealing with mental illness because it really helps me understand that just because a reaction is Common doesn’t mean it’s Right. Does doing dishes stress you out a lot? Buy paper plates. Do your obsessive thoughts make you worry about leaving your curling iron on so you drive home from work to check? Just put the curling iron in your purse and bring it to work with you while we work on tackling where this worry comes from. Symptom management doesn’t have to look like drudgery.

i used to go days without showering because seeing my body was so upsetting that i would end up spiraling and then i realized i could simply turn the lights out. it took some getting used to but i’ve been showering with the lights off for years and it’s now one of my favorite parts of my day.

do whatever you want nothing is real and there’s no need to inflict unnecessary suffering on yourself just to try to seem “normal”

Hmmm

These kinds of loopholes make life so. Much. Better.

One of my favorite stories is this lady had extremely bad OCD. Every day she’d be late to work because she was convinced that her hair dryer was going to burn down the house so would always have to turn around and check it. Multiple times a day even. A bunch of doctors tied to “fix” her of that fear, until one day she got a doctor that suggested she bring the hair dryer with her. Other doctors were annoyed, saying that wasn’t a the correct way to help, but she gave it a go. When she had that fear, she’d look over and see the hair dryer unplugged in the seat next to her and was able to carry on. I think it’s such a perfect example of actually helping someone instead of forcing them into a neurotypical standard.

soulmate marks where the first thing your soulmate says to you is tattooed on your body, but its something that happens when you MEET them

so you aren’t born with it, it just shows up the first time they speak directly to you, and you may not realize it happened until days after the fact

or maybe you’re at the beach or something and you get to watch as your casual exchange with a stranger LITERALLY SHOWS UP ON THEIR BODY TWO SECONDS AFTER IT LEAVES YOUR MOUTH

idk soulmate marks are so silly I love them

“Hey dick-for-brains, stop stepping all over my goddamn towel!”

“Jesus christ, I’m sorry, I don’t have my glasses on.”

“Oh, uh. I. I’m sorry, no, its my bad, uhm. Do. Uh. N-no hey, wait, can you like seriously not see right now?”

“No, I–why?”

“Where, uh, where’re your glasses at?”

“By…the rest of my shit, is–did–”

“No, its fine, I’m just–I think maybe I should, like, accompany you? Back to them? Because I have something to apologize for that you can’t see just yet–”

“…do I have ‘Dick for brains’ written on my chest right now.”

“Y-yes. Fuck I’m so sorry.”
