In a support group today, someone said that being alive is enough. That should be enough. It’s a western idea that you’re only valued for your output, and for the relative value of your output at that.
Nice Post. I think that trying ur best is enough. And if that means just being alive, so be it. We don’t know how that person’s circumstances are. How easily they get overwhelmed or etc etc
No one can know wat my best is except myself, cos only I am in my shoes.
Thanku for reminding me.
energy needs to be used or you dont feel good.
Merely ‘existing’ is not life.
Sometimes,
It actually IS.
My therapist likes to remind me that I am a human being, not a human doing.
lol that is kind of funny
It’s how she reminds me that not every second of my day needs to be productive.
That’s what I always say… so I have schizoaffective disorder, I’m not as attractive as I’d like to be, I’m alone most of the time, I have no career… but still, I’m just happy to be alive.
Considering how old the planet is, it’s fantastic luck for us to even exist in the middle of a cold and mostly lifeless universe. We’ve hit the cosmic jackpot in a way. I just love absorbing all of mankind’s art and entertainment, and that’s enough for me most days.
I’m glad you found a support group, that’s awesome!
