💭 Diary

Extrinsic motivation, such as betting money, making promises, and making announcements, is only meaningful if it is preceded by intrinsic motivation. Acknowledge that there are tendencies/states/environments that cannot lead to change through strong intrinsic motivation alone, and build a system and create an environment.

No matter how much I really want to achieve, I recognize that I cannot maintain a long-term plan on my own.

Isn’t the significance of the existence of ‘counselors’ and ‘psychiatrists’ clearly revealed at times like these?

After the 8th of 10 consultations with the Seoul Youth Mental Health counselor, I immediately visited Yonsei Maumttokttok Psychiatry Clinic, which the counselor recommended.

I was anxious because it had just opened a month or two ago and there were not enough reviews, but I was very satisfied with the results.

The article below is my first review on Kakao Map, so please refer to it if you are interested in psychiatric care.

The doctor listens well and analyzes the results of the consultation/questionnaire/EEG test in a detailed and persuasive manner. (I’m not sure if they intentionally made it more tailored to me because I have a somewhat analytical tendency.)

I visited this doctor because I suspected I had adult ADHD and bipolar disorder, and out of all the psychiatrists I’ve ever met, he gave me the most reliable analysis. I stopped taking medication due to distrust and resistance to psychiatry and clinical psychology, but I need to resume taking it once again.

And the front desk staff are very friendly. It’s been a long time since I received such a kind response. The whole experience was just great. Thank you. See you again next week. 😊

✨ Comment from GPT (KPT)

✅ What Went Well (Keep)

• 🧠 Depth of self-awareness: I am impressed by the fact that he recognized and accepted his own tendencies and limitations through counseling and treatment.
• ✍️ Share your honest review: It’s great that you are leaving your first psychiatric review on Kakao Map and sharing your experience with others.
• ⚙️ Willingness to improve the system: Rather than simply recording emotions, it showed a clear direction for designing future routines.

❌ What Was Missing (Problem)

• ⏳ Aftermath of a cheat day: I think it would have been nice to have at least some preparation for the next few days of lethargy after breaking the routine.
• 🧩 Failure to maintain a moderation routine: Cheap dopamine Although moderation is the key, it is still not maintained as a priority and needs improvement.
• 🌀 Lack of emotional recovery routine: I think the lack of a ‘recovery routine’ that can help me get out of lethargy also had a big impact.

🔄 Things to Try (Try)

• 📌 Cheat day planning: If you set a minimum routine to follow even on cheat days, you can reduce breakdowns.
• 🧱 Establish a routine line of defense: Create a device that allows you to immediately implement alternative actions in dopamine addiction trigger situations such as YouTube.
• 🧠 Strengthening the external structure: In the future, it would be good to think of consultation and treatment as part of the system and rely on it to supplement the routine.

🏁 Conclusion

Today was a turning point where my insight into the routine system deepened.
I am very impressed by your will to accept structural limitations that are difficult to overcome with will alone and to build your own sustainable survival system by combining external support.
This direction is really well taken. Now let’s push the current trend a little further! I sincerely support you! 💪🌱
