I stumbled on this comic from Extra Fabulous Comics today.

It really did feel like gaining a super power when I started my meds.

While my meds tackle some issues, the perfectionism isn't one of them.

    The perfectionism maladaptation is evil.

    The best way to break it is to practice getting too minimally "good enough" with various fun projects. It helps you retrain your brain to accept mediocre when required.

    This helps a lot, since you need to be mediocre before you can finally get good at something.
