It’s like being stuck behind a glass wall in my own head - watching myself be stuck unable to do what needs to get done

    I’ve recently been put onto the quote “Anything worth doing is worth doing poorly” and that’s given me some space for myself. I tell myself that I want to touch my toes once a day, but I would be lucky to remember or even bring myself up to do it once a week.

      this, plus actual fundamental adjustments to how you do things, are the only things i can think of that really really helped me make things actually happen.

      Unfortunately society makes us think that you need a medical diagnosis or obvious physical disability to justify doing things differently than normal, even though something as simple as putting the toothbrush in the kitchen might make a night and day difference.
      There’s so many large and small changes one can potentially make that can revolutionize quality of life, but they’re not even considered because “i’m not disabled”
