Actually, NOBODY likes you when you're depressed. Plain and simple. We can talk all day about MENTAL HEALTH and how important it is but the moment you are depressed, people really start to distance themselves.
They see you as NEGATIVE, a BURDEN, and someone just too HEAVY to handle.
I’m in love with this sentence:
“The degree to which a person can grow is directly proportional to the amount of truth he can accept about himself without running away.”
STUDY HARD. No matter if it seems impossible. No matter if it takes time. Wake up early and start studying for your future. Just remember that the feeling of success is the best feeling in the world.
just fucking do it. you're never gonna hit a secret trick, some magic way to get shit done. set an alarm early tomorrow and get the fuck up when it rings. just go to the fucking gym. cook a good ass meal. nobody's coming to save you mf

The most disabling symptom of ADHD is the paralysis. It's the deep, internal shame of knowing exactly what to do... and just sitting there, watching yourself not do it.
we really have no control over how we are perceived, no matter how good of a person you are or how genuine your intentions are. people internalize you based on their own outlook on life.
Apple Music is cheaper, has MUCH better sound quality, a prettier design and gives you monthly stats. What’s even stopping Spotify users from switching to it?
One of the greatest cheat codes in life is to never get offended. Train yourself to have a thick skin. Don't take things personally. Let others disagree with you. Being easily offended means you're easily manipulated. Want more peace? Avoid getting offended.
