I love my therapist, but they have a job too do and my dark humor doesn’t always land.

    Like, what if your life sucks, and it’s not a chemical imbalance?

    “Regular” life problems feed into my “chemical imbalance”

    The line between non-mental-illness problems and mental illness is very blurred. The only real thing you can do sometimes is try and focus on “what you can change” im not a big fan of this rhetoric but it is somewhat true.

      I could see that. I mean as someone that was a hardcore opiate addict for over a decade. I almost certainly have some kind of chemical imbalance. Like, it would honestly surprise me to find out I’m not chemically imbalanced? But truthfully I’m more unhappy about my circumstances than anything. I said more about them in a comment.
