No but seriously, call me cynical but every time someone says some variation of “It gets better” I feel like there’s an unsaid “and if it doesn’t, it’s your fault” in there. Most positive affirmations just annoy me, tbh, I just find them incredibly unhelpful. … I may be a bad person. 🫠
You’re not a bad person, I also find them annoying. Maybe even cruel. Like, things may get better for some people, but fact is, they won’t get better for many others.

Look up Mapo bridge in South Korea.
Apparently positive messages and affirmations don’t work for people who are suicidal.
I’m not that far gone (mostly angry at shit) but yeah I can see that.
