Alright- this is a rant. Nothing bad, just a rant. Let me just say that too many people and kids are faking to have mental disorders. They think it's a joke, and that it's harmless. No. It's harmful and offensive. People who actually have these illnesses experience different things. Don't say: "oH i gOt aN 'F', iM dySLeXic" or, "oHH iM sAd, i hAvE dEprEssIon". You don't know what people who have these things are going through. you say that just because you don't eat as much or your scores aren't high that something's wrong with you. the only thing that's wrong is the diagnosis. you're not eating just because of your looks, or because u wanna STARVE, right? just because your scores aren't high doesn't mean that your world is different, RIGHT? exactly. ------------------------------- O -------------------------------- people who DO have illnesses need to be respected more. if someone has dyslexia, the last thing they need to hear is that they're "dumb" or "stupid". THAT'S NOT WHAT THAT MEANS. their brains just aren't like ours, and they may not see the world the same. YOU'RE the dumb one. YOU don't see what they see. let's say ur friend has depression. ur not gonna say: "omg, just get over it. ur fine". No, they're not. you don't have the thoughts they do. they may be a bit sad here and there, but that doesn't mean they're just some sad sack. HOPEfully this helped you see what's going on in this world, and I'll see you next time. Comment if what you'd like next. This isn't a joke, this is the truth. if there's something wrong with the symptoms I mentioned, just tell me. Shout-out to any neurodivergent people out there, you're not weird. You're not strange. You're accepted by me. You're amazing, and you are you. Ignore anyone who tells you otherwise. EDIT 6/3/21: Hey guys- so you can speak out to this too! Don't let haters stop you!
