to 23angstyteenagemindset - i know how you feel!! i don’t know if this’ll help but i’ve found the balance between apathy & not caring too much lies in WHAT you care about - for example, i’m apathetic in that i choose not to care what people think of me, and i don’t let the past stress me out - since it’s done and unchangeable. but i pick the right things to give a fuck about - my friends, my career (or lack thereof), etc., usually stuff that i CAN affect. i know it’s a lot easier said than done, but i think if you try making choices & practicing the mindset of “what’s done is done and no longer bothers me; instead, i choose to shape my future” (that works as like a whole affirmation lol), you might find some solace. good luck. - 🌧
