The whole separation between “mental” and “physical” health is bollocks anyways. If you are stressed it will come with physical symptoms and chronic suffering will lead to all sorts of physical issues.
Vice versa, if you don’t take care of your “physical health” it will affect your “mental health” negatively.
Like how trauma literally changes the physical structure of your brain
Since trauma is just all “in your head”, after all, right? And yet, it causes physical changes to your body. How else does one explain it if not that mental health and physical health are deeply linked?
While this is factually true and I completely agree with the sentiment behind it, I never liked how trauma changing your brain is presented as something extraordinary. Every experience changes the brain; learning, healing, trauma, physical and chemical input in the form of injury and drugs/medicine, even plain day to day living. After all that’s what the brain does.
“Bert strips without Bert” are the next wave of surreal wholesome memes
Much as I agree with this, Ernie doesn’t get off the hook so easily.
I mean, cookies in the bed? Please.
Remember to wear your arm floaties:
Reminder that it is worth skipping your therapy session if you are currently on the pavement bleeding out.
