New psych talking about justice sensitivity. Relatable but seems like a bit of a joke given the state of the world

    Not sure I exactly follow your train of thought but I generally see taking care of oneself as an investment in your ability to continue fighting the good fight and trying to be a part of the solution

      That makes sense and is pragmatic, it’s just been hard to compartmentalize lately. The psychiatric system can often work to further marginalise and straight up hurt people with severe disorders, disorders that likely wouldn’t exist, at least to the same severity without capitalism and everything that comes with it. I’ve been so sensitive to it lately, hence mention of justice sensitivity but the fact that we have a box for people who see bad shit and say “hey that’s fucked something needs to be done about that”, it honestly makes my skin crawl for lack of a better phrase.
