help please

How do y'all stay motivated to do work/school work with depression,anxiety, etc?

I've tried the reward system, the routines, the study music, but none of it helps.

I woke up four hours late, have wasted another four hours procrastinating, haven't cleaned my room, haven't done any kind of work, and only eaten toast.

I am very overwhelmed and need some help please.

I'm trying to start a business and I feel like I have never been this stressed before 😭 I'm putting together a presentation for investments but people keep telling me to look into business credit cards and loans... I looked into them today and my conclusion is that if no one bites on the investment front, I'm screwed.

It's always been my dream to own a bakery and honestly, my baking is one of the few things that I have a lot of confidence in. Just yesterday I completely created a cookie recipe from scratch because we had a bunch of ripe bananas. I know that I make delicious treats, I know that people love my baked goods, but no one really cares about that part of it. They care if you're going to take their money and make something with it, or if you're going to crash and burn while their money burns too.

I have no capitol, no assets, and no idea what I'm gonna do if this doesn't work. My disabilities have gotten so much worse in the last few years and I haven't been able to stay at a job more than a year because I'm breaking down. I'm exchanging the last years of my life for money right now. I can feel that my physical abilities are waning slowly and I can't just use the power of positive thinking to make my body work when it's in too much pain. I feel like the only way I can make it through is by being in charge of my own hours, my own finances, and my own time on and off. If I can't do that, I'm genuinely scared for my future.

And none of this loan bullshit is helping 😭😭😭😭

It's one of those days

It's one of those days when I don't know what to do with myself. I'm having some water and thinking of doing a short at home walking workout video. The anxiety is so bad today...

I'm just scared. I feel like I systematically fail at everything. I haven't got real good news in a while now, and I feel like my strength is fading.

People refusing to take responsibility for hurting me causes me so much pain...

I need to rescue myself. I need to get out of this situation and start over.

Some days it just feels like I simply won't make it.

are. are you telling me that if the romanced mage warden dies and alistair is king, he deadass stares greagoir down over her dead body and grants the circle of ferelden its autonomy after ordering it rebuilt somewhere safer. first you have to deliberately leave him behind so he won't die for you and then he does that for you once you're gone, even when you're broken up??? absolute and literal king behaviour of the highest order????? the actions speak louder than words of it all??????? I think I hauve covid

I recently had to do a project in one of my psych classes, and man, I knew that CBT was used for every little thing, but seeing over and over, "do CBT! CBT is the best for every mental illness!" was so jarring. I'm absolutely biased because of my own experiences, but I just don't think it's as universal a treatment model as it's touted.

If you didn't benefit from CBT, it's not because you're lazy or didn't try hard enough or lacked intelligence or foresight into your own needs. Frankly, it's a therapy model that (I think) shouldn't be the only readily-accessible model and among the only therapy models covered by insurance. Some of us should not be treated in a CBT model and that's okay. It's not a sign of poor character or unreasonable demands, and if you don't think it's a model that works for you, then it's your right to express that!

Incorrect, the fact that Biden has dropped out and a candidate with history of supporting medicare for all and being more receptive to a ceasefire in the I/P conflict has made me go from "I cannot morally support the Democratic nominee" to "I am voting for the Democratic nominee despite the fact she isn't perfect in every respect." I'm really happy this played out. The Dems for the most part abandoned the old Obama platform and it feels like its possible an actual progressive agenda could come to pass in my lifetime.

Kamala 2024!

If you weren't going to vote Democratic in this election before Biden dropped out you're a dorkass loser who does not care about any of the issues you're yammering about here and also a fundamentally bad person, and I hope you get run over by a bus.

But you got one thing right in all of this gibberish, Kamala 2024.

Some thoughts on Lucifer's mental health, relationships, and role as king of hell!

Lucifer’s perception of himself as the king of hell is really interesting to me because he’s very blase about it in canon while totally using it when it suits him.

I think it’s really telling that the first time he actually brings it up himself is when it’s something he can leverage to help Charlie out. He reads to me like someone who objectively knows that he’s the hottest shit in town, but also just doesn’t really think that it matters most of the time because it's not relevant to his personal problems. Being Lucifer Morningstar did not allow him to achieve his goals in petitioning heaven. Being the most powerful person in hell didn’t even un-fuck his family life!

...Except for when suddenly it might in fact help un-fuck his relationship with his daughter.

It's the main thing he can desperately and dramatically showcase as a worthwhile reason for Charlie to maintain a relationship with him, because he as a person is depressed, half-functional, and barely has enough spoons to pay attention to a conversation he's having with her while he's actively having it, nevermind remembering their last one.

He wants to! And it doesn't start with his song at the hotel! It starts with him answering the phone, heavily fumbling actually connecting with Charlie despite clearly desperately wanting to, and then realizing she's asking him for something and promptly choking on his tea before excitedly telling her, "Yeah! Of course! Anything within my power is yours for the asking, you just name it." He knows that there is a great deal 'within his power,' and he's happy and relieved that he can offer her that!

Lilith has been gone for years but he's still wearing his wedding ring. His walls are still covered in family portraits. He's just been sitting in his room making thousands of rubber ducks he thinks suck instead of ruling hell, because his daughter liked that one duck he made one time.

Charlie needed him to support her in her mission, but damn did Lucifer also need Charlie to get him out and moving and actually doing things again.

Anyway, someone get this man on an SSRI.
