School mental health councilors couldent muster words of motivation better than “just do what makes you happy”. I now feel like all of the therapy I have been through boils down to just that and has been an absolute waste. I have been dealing with depression a long time and so every day has just been trying and, with few exceptions, failing. Parents, school councilors, and therapists seem to not understand that barely afloat is me doing my best.
