This is a thing that needs to show up on people’s dashboards so often that they start to see it in their dreams. I have a lot of “mental” illnesses (mental is in quotes because at first I was told it wasn’t real) and what @jordansjourneyto130 said is so true, I wasn’t diagnosed until after I tried to kill myself and, thankfully and luckily, failed. I was in middle school. No one would notice when I was hiding it and I didn’t even know that there was something REAL wrong inside my head. Don’t tell me that I just need to “Think Positive!” or to “Cheer Up, It’s All In Your Head And You Can Control It!” No I can’t just cheer up or control it, I AM SICK!
Don’t push this aside, it is real and needs to exist in the forefront of peoples minds. Thank you #brainbent for rebloging this, I don’t think I would have seen it otherwise.
