Just attended a coaching on "Making Good Decisions" for academics. After 60min of "don't be too perfectionist", "just think about the next step", "be more compassionate with yourself", we started discussing where all this pressure is coming from, and someone asked "isn't the whole system broken, then?" and I asked "should we actually stop trying to fix our mental health and BURN THE WHOLE F**KING PLACE DOWN?" and the coach went: "Of course, that would actually be healthier". 🤡
