THE ABATTOIR

We should hang out soon before one of us evolves or disappears

plany off time is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have

every now and then the topic of schizophrenia in relation to antipsych comes up and it seems to be where most people are apprehensive towards antipsych arguments which is always extremely aggravating to see because a lot of antipsych communities are made up of people who have been on antipsychotics and/or involuntarily institutionalized for psychosis. of course I know you really badly want to say all those people are delusional in the first place instead of the more obvious argument, that some of the worst treatment you'll face in psychiatry is tied to these particular diagnoses. they even separate psychotic patients from the rest in some psych wards and the staff will talk shit about them to other patients lol like it's crazy

holy shit dude the elephant in the room just beat that horse to death holy fuck he's still going

I think part of getting better is complete ego death. Like you’re not above setting a timer for 5 minutes and focusing on a task. You’re not above doing a very simple 3 minute workout to start. You’re not above reading for 10 minutes a day when you first get out of your reading slump, even if you used to read for hours. You’re not above starting slow and then building up to where you want to be/where you once were. What you are above is total inertia. Doing something really is better than doing nothing. Radically accept where you are, radically accept your limits, and go from there. Don’t let your ego get in the way.
