"You need to learn how to rest" cool, what's the most productive way to do that?
"You need to learn how to be imperfect?" cool how do I perfect that?
"You need to learn self-acceptance" so I'm not good enough right now cool, how do I change that
Being mentally ill and a rational person is exhausting because I am fully self aware that I'm doing the mental illness and yet I have no idea how to not, there is no mental train line to that destination, I don't even know what direction it's in, you might as well ask me to fetch you striped paint
Do you watch yourself falling into these patterns, being perfectly aware that they are unhealthy, yet unable to stop yourself or break out of them?
This is how I experience it.
