Muthafukkas is poosey cuz of the Internet. You can be wrong and find other people to be wrong with. You can be disrespectful and not get socked in the face.
It’s one thing to acknowledge you have issues, quite another to just use them as a crutch or allow those issues to define you or run your shyt. Also, I think people get exposed to new words not realizing the seriousness behind the word. It’s like calling something a revolution when it isn’t one at all.
I just saw a porn star tell the world that she was autistic...safe to say it's more awareness, but, people do not take it seriously
The truth is, toxic behavior is often normalized.
And while acknowledging a problem, issue, or disorder is one part of the equation, actually taking steps to gain mental clarity or seek proper intervention is a whole different challenge.
It takes work. Real, uncomfortable, consistent work.

Using therapy to get help takes work. You actually have to do something to get over your issues and use the tools you gained.

There’s simply no practice.
Knowledge isn’t the same as doing.
Mental health is not a spectator sport.
I can tell you what’s worked for me is scheduling out my day. That shyt is a hack for consistency. If I want something done it goes on a schedule with the steps broken down daily, weekly and monthly. I can put nearly anything on a schedule and work at it. Works terrific and feels great. I have my free time scheduled and have blocks for some flexibility. When I’m “wasting time”, I’ve scheduled that in. I definitely have enough time to play because I see it on my schedule.
It’s an awesome system, but that’s all it is: a system. To get the rewards it provides action and discipline are required.

Facts. I think a lot of people go to a therapist to get a diagnosis then never go back when the therapist starts talking about modalities and working on their issues.
