RE: Sometimes Staying Alive is More Than Enough.
This is important advice. There is so much of depression and mental illness out there, and it's so critical for people to understand how to deal with it in a way that helps them heal. Thanks for posting this, and I hope your journey is a successful one. I'll be following.
Sad thing is, this advice is important for EVERYONE. It's just that most people don't figure it out till they're ready to break (or their health actually does.)
If we treat ourselves like unfeeling machines that can be worked till they break without a problem, something is bound to go wrong! Heck, even machines need maintenance!
An engineer told me the other day that no machine can last without maintenance for more than about six months without breaking down. You're absolutely right. We need that maintenance even more than a machine does, because we are the most complex machines in the world.
