Sad Stoner Therapy

I have been living with mental illness and other chronic illnesses for almost 3 decades. It's okay though. I education thankfully gives me some extra insight into my issues. I'm very self-aware. But I struggle and I struggle h a r d. And I've accepted that I will for the rest of my life. One of my hardest obstacles to overcome is perfectionism. I'm not sure which illness or disorder blessed me with this toxic symptom but I live with it and it debilitates me everyday. Now, perfectionism is pretty often portrayed as a positive trait. It might even be your back-handed answer for the question at every job interview: "what's your biggest weakness?" I used to use it all the time. Every interview. I thought it implied that when I attempted to start a project, I would put my all into it and do the best that I could. But that's not really perfectionism; that's just trying your best. That's the healthy way to do things.
