I truly don’t believe LAZY is a thing.
You can be:
•exhausted AF from faking well or healing from TRAUMA. @drjenwolkin
•burnt-out and/or DEPRESSED
•struggling with executive function and completing tasks from ADHD
•procrastinating as a symptom of ANXIETY
•chronically pained
•struggling with health
You👏Are👏Not👏Lazy XO, Dr. Jen
I wouldn’t be where I am today without the love and support that @MichelleObama has poured into me over the years. Her story — from her South Side roots to the White House and beyond — is a central part of the Obama Presidential Center.
The entire White House was in on the Epstein coverup.
DOJ. FBI. The VP.
They were meeting in the Situation Room ffs.
This is INSANE.

Sometimes the comeback looks impossible until it doesn’t.
Sometimes progress is quiet.
Sometimes it’s messy.
Sometimes it arrives in the final minutes after everyone else has counted you out.
Your comeback is possible, too.
Keep going. XO, Dr. Jen
Many people get out of bed and are still clinically depressed. Many people work while depressed. Many people can feel depressed and also laugh at a joke or for no reason. XO, Dr. Jen
Maybe you need to feel less alone. I’m on a high-dose SSRI for OCD. Yes, I tried meditation, herbs, yoga, walking, hydrating, journaling, manifesting, therapy, and all of these are wonderful, but didn’t on their own help me get my life back. Are meds for everyone? Certainly not. Can they save lives? YES. Let’s stop vilifying life-changing medicine, and start taking an approach that centers treatment tailored to every individual. XO, Dr. Jen
Sometimes my patients don’t connect to me telling them to
“start practicing being more compassionate to yourself” so I’ll just say
“STOP being such a harsh B*tch to the person in the mirror” and it just clicks better. XO, Dr. Jen

@atrupar Congrats to Kristen Welker for putting in the best performance of her tenure at Meet the Press! She asked hard questions. She needled him. She tried to get answers. And Donald Trump absolutely crashed out because he’s not used to that. He’s a tired, easily enraged old man.
Trauma did NOT make you stronger.
It made you hyper-vigilant and scared of even calm and joyful experiences.
YOU make yourself stronger through the work of discerning between real and perceived threat. XO, Dr. Jen
The ADHD tendency to need routine but then get painfully bored with routine and need excitement but then get overwhelmed and overstimulated and need routine. XO, Dr. Jen
Before we run to judge people who “aren’t doing enough to heal” I want to remind us all that while trauma is FREE and available to ANYone, healing is expensive AF, and not accessible to all. XO, Dr. Jen
And just like that, it’s completely VANISHED from the media.
A sitting congressman, Ted Lieu, said on the record the Epstein files are being blocked because they show Trump raped and threatened to kill children.
