Me at 9 years old giving my friend flawless advice on how to deal with their parents like a tiny therapist.

Also me going home and immediately choosing the worst possible response known to mankind because “it’s different when it’s me”

Just watched a cool short (~10 min) video about mental health entitled Why Your Advice Doesn't Work On Yourself.

The video addresses Solomon's paradox, which was a new term to us. It basically means that you find it much easier to give advice to others than to accept it yourself/ves.

This made us amusingly realise that we've kind of attempted to resolve the paradox in an entirely unorthodox way by dissociating into a system with multiple, lovely headmates 🤭
