She works for the pod Johns, which I guess isn't shocking.

      I love how you're literally doing what the comment you responded to is talking about. Treating your "solutions" to mental health as if they will work on everyone is one of the reasons why mental health has such a terrible discourse around it. "Just tough up and do what I did, get a partner!" is absolutely terrible. Having a partner doesn't solve any mental health problems. People with partners have issues all the time.

      Pretty disgusting to call that "silly". Just fix your problems by entering a relationship, duh. Sure.

        they didn't say solve, they said easier. which is objectively true lol. even if it is just a friend or two instead of an intimate relationship. self-isolation is believed to be one of the worst things you can do for your mental health

        yes i am aware making and maintaining relationships, be they platonic or intimate, is harder for those of us who are neurodivergent, but that doesn't change the fact that it is a necessary part of being human/self-actualization
