not only will we never he able to truly destigmatize mental illness & disorders etc. if y’all cannot accept that some symptoms are scary and ugly, we also will never achieve peace if y’all cannot accept that some symptoms of mental health & the way people cope with them will seem “cringe” to you. i see so many “allies” & “advocates” draw a line at psychotic & dissociative disorders. “they have to be faking it.” actually they’re not & also I don’t give a damn if someone’s alter is a sonic the hedgehog character. read a book and come back when you have something kind to contribute to the conversation
