The Psychology of your 20s

NOTE

Be Mindful of Over-reliance on Others for Mental Health

Being open about struggles with mental health is important, but be cautious of revealing too much too soon in a relationship. Sharing too soon can lead to creating false expectations of being 'fixed' by the other person, which may result in over-reliance on them for mental well-being. This can lead to abandoning other coping mechanisms and may have detrimental effects on mental health if the person leaves. Additionally, be mindful of others fetishizing mental health struggles, as this can create a negative dynamic.
