Bless you, yeah, very similar for me.
I was drunkgry trying to put forward the idea that it’s ok to self-diagnose in some scenarios. “I have self-diagnosed I’ve hurt my knee and am self-prescribing bed rest.” is perfectly normal, why can’t it be the same for mental health!?
There are so many parents and older generations who are very unforgiving of “weakness” or lack of “self-discipline”, even if they themselves have symptoms that could be alleviated through self-care. I’m sad for older folk that they’d rather get angry and spread fear around it, and I just hate they’re trying to put off people from introspection. Good luck 💕







I think that specific example was shown to be sabotaged at the behest of management to try to save on maintenance costs so no that doesn’t count
