If you don’t live with mental illness, don’t make assumptions about what is and isn’t a symptom.

Depression isn’t always sitting in a dark room, crying. It’s forgetting important things like appointments and due dates. It’s living in a messy home. it’s forgetting to brush your hair or teeth. It’s failing an assignment you are 100% capable of doing. It’s finding the negative in every situation, even the most positive ones. It’s questioning why anyone wants you. It’s not allowing yourself even one mistake. it’s being exhausted when you haven’t achieved anything for the day. 

Anxiety isn’t just stressing or being nervous. It’s losing the ability to breathe. It’s aches in your body. It’s cancelling plans with people you love. It’s taking the longest route because you know it will have the fewest people. It’s questioning everything. It’s your stomach always dropping. It’s your mind constantly making up “what if” scenarios and scaring you. 

PTSD isn’t just violent flashbacks. It’s getting angry and upset or reacting to something without realising why it’s happening. It’s not trusting anyone. It’s avoiding things people never think of as negative. It’s nightmares while you sleep and while you’re awake. It’s felt in every inch of the body. 

Anorexia isn’t just failing to eat. It’s physical and mental pain. It’s looking in the mirror and finding only negatives. It’s thinking all day about food and being scared of it. It’s never feeling good enough. It’s complete self destruction. It’s crying because people saying “just eat it” makes things worse. 

Mental illnesses are often romanticised or dulled down to just one or two symptoms. But mental illness impacts a person in every way. If someone has a mental illness and they’re doing something you can’t understand or they’re not doing their jobs, don’t call them lazy or dramatic or useless. Understand that mental illnesses may be housed in the brain, but the illness spreads throughout the body and into every aspect of life. 

Cussing does not make you low class or uneducated.

I can say fuck all I want if I wanted to, but that does not make me scum or low class or uneducated. 

Fuck yeah

New Found Glory tonight was so fucking amazing that I thought it was worth making a Tumblr post about it on a Tumblr I hardly get on anymore.

Shout out to anyone who came up to me afterwards and recognized me as the chick who stage dove far too much. Shout out to Jordan, lead singer who gave me the mic so many times. Shout out to the awesome friends I had there M, Jaime, Rick, Taylor, Christian. Shout out to everyone who was having such a fucking good time. And shout out to everyone who dropped me hahahahahaha

I have not once slandered your name or have tried to make you look like a bad person in real life or all over social media. I have never, ever let anyone believe anything bad about you—in person or on the internet.
And for you to do so is, yes, childish and immature. But if I were to even tweet about you or anyone else being childish I would be called out on or be yelled at.
I hope you realize that it’s incredibly hypocritical, childish, and naive for you to do such a thing—and to continue to do such a thing.
