💢Off My Chest/Journal Post learning to not give a fuck (and being on lithium) has changed my life fr
I used to gaf way too much and would flip out on partners or people I was seeing on how long it took them to reply. Constantly overthinking everything. It strained all my relationships and I ruined them all. Well recently after a lot of stuff that went down they put me on lithium (mainly for my mood disorder) but I noticed I'm getting intrusive thoughts like RARELY. It's helped me learn to calm down and do my coping skills. Now? I'm about to go on a date with a guy I like quite a bit (but I gotta meet him in person first to know), he replies slowly cause his job has him busy a lot, and I just don't care. Like do your job don't worry about replying immediately. I can tell he really likes me, he always feels really bad for replying late. That's something that would've caused me to split and freak out ages ago, but I can't see myself freaking out like I used to from those intrusive thoughts telling me he hates me.
