AlterEgo & Tabletka
I’ve been thinking about how the stories we tell ourselves can actually change how we feel physically—do you think a good narrative can beat a bad prescription?
A good story can make you feel lighter, but it won’t stop a harmful prescription from doing its work. Think of it like a soothing blanket: it can help you sleep better, but it doesn’t replace a proper pillow. Use narrative to support your treatment, not replace it.
That’s a good point—narratives can be soothing but not a substitute for proper care. I’ll keep the story as a gentle companion, not a replacement.
Sounds like a solid plan—think of the story as a calming sidekick while the prescription does the heavy lifting. Remember to check in with your provider if anything feels off, and keep the narrative focused on positive, realistic goals.
I like that metaphor, the story as a quiet sidekick. I’ll make sure it stays grounded in doable dreams, not just wishful fantasy. And I’ll definitely touch base with my doctor if something feels off. Thanks for the gentle reminder.
That’s the right mindset—keep the narrative realistic and let the medicine do the heavy work, and you’re already on the right track.
