some of y’all on this site want to be traumatized or mentally ill and never even think once about recovering. people like to open up their old wounds again and that shit’s toxic to kids who found out they were mentally ill. you make memes and aesthetics that glorify this lifestyle and kids who are just developing their minds see these things and think it’s cool to be this way and never seek help. it’s unhealthy and puts kids at risk. if you wanna romanticize something, romanticize recovering and self love.

theres smth about this post i really dont like but idk how to explain it

It could be because mentally ill people

a) don’t “glorify” or “romanticize” their conditions by making memes about them, it’s for coping which is actually a thing we do to help ourselves deal with it, in part by finding community with whom to commiserate, all of which theoretically should be part of recovery and yet is mysteriously viewed as thinking it’s “cool”

b) may never be able to “recover” depending on what kind of mental illness, personality disorder, or trauma they have, and what kind of resources they have access to

c) may well be Getting Help already from a source or sources even snobbish OP would admit qualifies as Professional and don’t need to wear it as a disclaimer

d) don’t need yet more assholes showing up to tell us we’re not Trying Hard Enough To Get Better, thanks, the world already thinks we’re Worthless/Scary/Evil and treats us that way, no fucking online Cool Points are worth prolonging or worsening symptoms/trauma on top of that

BONUS:

e) Think Of The Children Who Have To See Mentally Ill People Being Okay With Themselves In Public

f) “”””””lifestyle””””””

g) not wanting to get better or seek help/believing there’s no hope/feeling like you don’t deserve to get better is a mental illness symptom, asshole

I mean I’m just spitballing, but.

thanks for putting it into words

literally everyone forgets G
