little mental illness things: not being able to know for sure whether your actions are symptoms you can’t help, or if they’re a sign you’re a terrible person, or if you’re just a terrible person for not being able to hide or control them, or for even thinking of excusing yourself for anything you’ve done wrong because you have a mental illness
It’s important to associate with people who are on a level you aspire to be on. They will serve to inspire and motivate you to succeed. The others will convince you of every brilliant reason why you’re a victim and success isn’t possible.
