Hey there! I really appreciate you sharing your story with us. It’s inspiring to hear how you’re navigating the challenges of IPSRT. I can only imagine how tough it must be at times, but it sounds like you’ve built some solid coping strategies through therapy and medication. That’s such an important step!
I love that you celebrate the small victories. Sometimes the little things can be overlooked, but they really do add up, right? It’s awesome that you have a supportive network around you. I think having people who truly understand can make a huge difference in how we manage our mental health.

Just know that you’re not alone in this, and it’s okay to have ups and downs. Keep taking it one day at a time; those moments of kindness toward yourself are so vital.
