hate the culture around anxiety. do you really want to be like this forever? because thats whats gonna happen if you don't try
its not cute, its sad, and at a point it becomes your fault its still an issue
"i cant leave the house"
and instead of trying to make it an extra foot out your door every day youre calling uber eats a human right
just adding on to this and saying adhd and depression are the same way. and literally any mental problem ever
when you shut off everything from your life because of an issue, you arent "being comfortable", youre giving up. youre letting your disorder consume you. yes, sometimes weeks or even a few months of solitude is beneficial for healing. but it is very easy to distinguish between giving yourself alone time to heal from trauma and wallowing in your sadness until you get used to being miserable.
i know its hard to do anything and everything. its hard to shower. its hard to go pick up groceries. its hard to respond to that friend youve been ignoring for the past 3 days. at some point though you just have to suck it up, to get up and actually do it. i dont care if you cry or feel like dying afterwards, you have to do this. more often than not the thought of an action is scarier than doing the action itself. so cry and scream and thrash around, but just do it.
