If you are like me with the anxiety and the depression and the executive dysfunction

- DON’T say to yourself “I need to take a shower”

-showering is a long multistage process that requires you to be vulnerable (naked, wet, blots out sound, what if someone calls/rings the doorbell, etc)

-INSTEAD say to yourself “I’m just gonna go turn on the water right quick”

-small one step task checked off your list

-your anxiety brain is a dumb motherfucker and it will be none the wiser that you have tricked it into BEGINNING the shower process

-once the water is running you are already there in the bathroom with the water running so you might as well finish the job

NOTE that this trick works for like. Fucking everything.

-Don’t “work on your WIP”– just open the document

-don’t “make the scary phone call” – just pull up the number in your contacts

-don’t “make lunch” – just pull out a loaf of bread

-don’t “do the dishes” – just open the dishwasher. Literally just open it

Remember ur anxiety brain is a dumb motherfucker and that you CAN therefore TRICK it into being functional

also bonus tip: for those times when u just need to lie on the floor and be a worthless lump of anxiety-ridden garbage for a few hours, download Duolingo and pick a language. Are you going to be fluent in a week? No. But it’s easy to focus on and that way when you’ve been down there for half a day and your shitty fukken brain is trying to convince you you’re garbage because it KEPT you there, you can counter with “excuse you I just spent the last four hours TEACHING MYSELF A FOREIGN LANGUAGE you punk ass bitch.”

Good luck out there kids I believe in u

Motivation and initiation energy are two of the hardest fucking things. Inertia is challenging to overcome. This is GREAT advice.

May I also add— if you can do the first step commit to 5-10min. At the end of those 5-10min you may be shocked to discover you can keep going— momentum bitches. And, if you can’t, it’s a good indication that rest is needed more than whatever task you’re trying to accomplish.

We will be like ‘Don’t give transphobes your fucking money ever’ and some ppl will still be like ‘Ok, but what if I give them a little money? :-)’ unbelievable

I basically dislike any adult who is still heavily invested in Harry Potter in 2021. You don’t have to burn the books outside or anything but like you can very much just find something else to obsess about.

This franchise is harming trans people because a significant part of it’s profits are directly funding a transphobic movement. You’re participating into that by giving them money or giving them free advertising buzz by constantly talking abt it online. And i think that’s gross

hey pro-tip for people who can become pregnant, plan B only works best if you weigh below 155 lbs, Ella works best if you weigh below 195 lbs, and if you weigh over that your main alternative to an emergency contraceptive is a copper IUD. this is just one of many examples of healthcare that is both incredibly fatphobic and that i see people totally uninformed about
