All of these suggestions are really silly for the target audience: teens who are too depressed to care for themselves.

I get where y'all are coming from, but "you just have to do it" is told to mentally ill people all the time and that's. not how it works

to all the depressed teens out there not brushing your teeth FUCKING BRUSH THEM i promise you i promise you i promise you i promise you look at me i promise you my heart my liver my lungs that you’re gonna thank yourself later. Just once a day even. Please

#mental health #obviously this is all good dental advice that people should try to follow!#but from what ive seen it seems like most depressed people with poor personap hygeine already try their best & wish they had the energy #im saying this as a lifelong depressed/disabled person who recently paid $500 to fill my cavities #also this reminds me of when i was a teen and hit a particularly hard patch mentally- so i had to get multiple cavities filled -#and i explained to the dental assistant the situation and that i was trying #and she literally said 'next time [a depressive episode] happens just brush your teeth ok?'
