I absolutely agree. As a therapist with personal experience, I think it would be cool af and an overall good idea if university degree courses for becoming a therapist included an elective- but highly encouraged- course which focuses on simulating different symptoms

At an agency meeting once, we played "never have I ever" and one of them was "nhie gone a week without showering;" I was the only one who had, and I got some seriously judgmental looks

Lmao, as someone struggling with mental health, that's nothing, but I get it being frowned upon

But yes, I don't judge people on stuff like this. After all, what's the point?

And there was an exchange someone I saw that went like "I can't imagine someone's mental health being so bad they don't shower for a week!"

And the response was just "girl, some people's mental health is so bad they kill themselves"
