Current Events > Getting older you gotta just become comfortable not always being your best self

(+) Yeah! (+)

I feel like this was one of my biggest hurdles that helped me with depression. I use to think that I should just stay home and be alone if I wasn't in a good enough mood to make jokes and smile. But I slowly paid attention to others and was like "oh... that's literally everybody". Plus sometimes a person Im with has a contagious good mood and brings me out of it.

Just one the reasons not to stay home and marinate in it when feeling down. If people are actually good friends and family they understand your off days. Also being vocally honest about my bad days helped. People were far more relatable and understanding than I thought they'd be in my early 20s. Nothing worse than having those people and not utilizing them.

Yeah understanding you won't be perfect and no one else is perfect is part of maturity.
