whoeatscookies :

“Have you taken your medicine” is the worse thing to hear

Andreah :

I forgot about sticky sleeves, I haven't felt that for 15 years

jules :

“the pills never made me happy, they made me normal” jesus christ that one stung 💔

🔙🔛🔝 :

“Some days I mourn the version of me who didn’t need help to breathe” I don’t think I ever met her

☭🔻 eira 𝄞⨾𓍢ִ໋ :

"guess someone forgot their meds today" no. today is just a bad day. meds dont make the bad days go away, they make the bad days not feel like itll be our last.

Lily :

Girl…. I just opened the app…

allieeemaee :

My doctor once told me clinical anxiety was as serious as diabetes. He said “If you were diabetic, you would never stop taking your insulin just because you feel better. You have to take it the rest of your life, just like your meds.” 🥺

ash :

My provider when talking to me about medication said "you carried yourself this far, let me help you now" and i bawled.

Gail :

Sticky sleeves turn crunchy and showers stop stinging. It’ll get better.

Jessie :

"I dont want to be medicated for the rest of my life but the bathroom floor was so cold." really hit me and i was not prepared

Byeol-Jin :

YOU DIDN'T HOLD MY HAND

Nini :

This is exactly the struggle of being medicated. I feel like I have this prejudice against myself as well that medicating makes me weak, but having it just keeps me here and it keeps me sane.

🪷 Lotus 🪷 :

I love being able to take my dog for a walk and not having sticky sleeves

Andres Mozo :

I swear that everyone needs to read Within Her Stillness by Emma Halden at least once in their life. GIVE YOURSELF THE LOVE YOU DESERVE!

KendiiKendoll :

“Some days i mourn the version of me that didn’t need help to breathe”

molly💙 :

oh wow a lil too real

CAILLA :

how I feel listening to this

Zoe Mace :

Judging for being on psychiatric meds is like judging someone for needing glasses. Sure, you could live without, but why willingly subject yourself to a more difficult life?

Jay 🎸 :

and then she said “sticky sleeves”

miss wagon :

“i want to believe life is moving with me, not coming for me”

CaseyyLeighh :

“Are you taking your psych meds” when I have a valid reason to be upset and I’m not even yelling yet..

J.K* :

bqwik :

"I dont want to be medicated for the rest of my life" but I want to watch my children grow and watch the sunsets with my husband in old age

The Moth Pit :

can i just say, the fact that people have to search "sticky sleeves meaning" is strangely hopeful to me? id love for no one to know that sensation ever again.

ak :

mental health medicine is the same as any medication for any illness. i love all of u. whatever keeps you here.
