Like, how dare you tell me I'm not sick?
Like, I would have 16 years ago if you had said, you know, Laura, like maybe this intense pain you're in is because you're like awake and sensitive and...
You've been through hard stuff.
I would be like, how dare you invalidate me?
Like, my brain is sick.
Do you not understand, Alex?
The road ahead is going to require us, not just girls and women, but all of us, to sit with mystery and uncertainty because...
What I have found the most helpful for me in my journey away from being a professional psychiatric patient, as I like to say, is trying to have an answer to and an explanation for everything about who I am and why I feel the way I feel.
It's a prison.
And there's a lot of freedom in letting go of needing to know why all the time and needing to have a box that you can fit yourself in and needing to have...
an answer to every question.
Sometimes it's just, you know, just being with the uncertainty and the mystery and the discomfort in that that actually enables you to
like find what you're meant to do next.
Right now, I think for so many people who are on meds and who are in, you know, kind of, you know, week after week, month after month, year after year of therapy, they've lost this opportunity to just like not need to figure it out all the time.
Yeah.
And fix the pain and stop the discomfort.
And to me, the more we wake up to this and realize like, wait, I can be with myself in this situation.
in this pain like that, that to me is the biggest threat to the mental health industry.
We are so, and it's so much bigger than just the mental health industry.
I think consumerism more broadly, just this, we're just bombarded constantly with messages about, you know, if you don't feel good, something's wrong with you.
