STUFF TO NOT EVER DO: tell a person with depression/anxiety/eating disorder that their illness makes YOU suffer never ever do this please this is the worst fucking thing you could ever tell someone who is sick

I got anon hate for this post, keep reblogging it

My family does this a lot and it really hurts. They tell me nobody wants to be around me when I have anxiety attacks bc it "ruins the vibe/kills the mood". Please don't do this to anyone it's very damaging.

depressed kids in the media: I don’t wanna go to therapy! I don’t need help! I’m not some specimen for you to dissect!

me, rollin up to my therapist’s office and collapsing in relief: what is UP my homeboy I fuckin missed you,, hope ur ready to hear some Bull Shit that fuckin happened to me this week

families of depressed kids in media: okay sweetie we’ve researched depression for ten hours straight and signed you up for therapy and re-arranged your school schedule to be less stressful

actual parents of depressed kids: look i get you’re sad but someones gotta do the goddamn dishes stop being lazy get up. why didn’t you go to school today, what’s wrong with you, you’re such a burden on this family.

Therapists in the media: *understanding head tilt*

My real live therapist whom I adore: Natalie, that is the DUMBEST thing I’ve ever heard.

I remember almost all of these and I hate you for getting them stuck in my head.

My head sounded like I was flipping through radio stations reading this list.

when your anxiety is constant but you do a really good job of pretending it’s not there

i support all women in jail who killed their abusive boyfriend/husband.

so much is going on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it’s too much!!!!!!!!!!!!! i just want to sleep in the forest for 190 years!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i’m tired leave me alone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I keep giving because I know what it’s like to feel like you have nothing. I know what it feels like to be a in a room and think nobody listened to the joke or thing you said. I know what it’s like to not be asked if you need anything today. I know what it’s like to be in an embarrassing moment where you just wish someone was there to make you laugh about it. I know what it’s like to feel ashamed to ask for some help, when everyone says “you’ll be fine dude!”

I keep giving because I’d fucking hate for anyone to be that person who feels alone. Offer, keep offering because someone deep down needs it and doesn’t always ask for it. And if you know what that feels like, my godddd please just fucking hug them and let them know they matter too

I can’t wait until I bounce back from everything I’m going through right now.

a world where people acknowledge that 99% of drug/alcohol addiction is caused by untreated mental illness and/or shitty life situations rather than peer pressure and a spooky drug dealer
