“You smell really good” ok so fuck me

The thing I hate most about depression is that it tricks you into thinking you don’t have depression. It makes you think that nothing is wrong with you, that you just feel this way because you lack value as a person. Whether that’s in your relationships, your academics, or a view of yourself, it makes you think you aren’t good enough for any of that.
“It’s not the illness,” it says, “You feel this way because it’s who you are.”
Me: I can’t get out of bed today, what is wrong with me. I’m so lazy and terrible and I am a huge flake and there has got to be something wrong with me.
My brain: There is no war in Ba Sing Se.
“As you care less about what people think of you, you will care more about what others think of themselves.”— Stephen R. Covey, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People (via books-n-quotes)
therapists are like the “bro it’s ok to cry around me bro” meme but if you do you get institutionalized
