Always reach out and talk to someone. And I've found it helpful to not focus on "normal" but rather learn how to live "next to" whatever burdens you. 🤗

I have this exact problem too. For me personally, I learned that grounding yourself in your interests and what inspires you is super helpful. The more you’re able to find things to help motivate yourself, the more that friends naturally gravitate towards wanting to help motivate you, even if you ask them. I think it’s fair if they really feel like they’re helping, especially if they can see a difference. Even reading or posting here can help ground you knowing that you aren’t alone. Hopefully some of this is helpful 💙
