happy mental health awareness month!!
i’d just like to remind everyone that there are more mental illnesses than depression and anxiety but these are still very valid mental illnesses that are serious!
remember that people with:
borderline personality disorder
dissociative identity disorder
are not “monsters” or “crazy” or “freaks” or people that you should be rude to just because they have a disorder that you are not familiar with or one that the media portrays to be dangerous!
(& btw adhd, autism, and tic disorders including tourettes syndrome are neurodevelopmental disorders– not mental illnesses)
and to everyone who has a mental illness or neurodevelopmental disorder, (no matter how obscure or common):
i hope and pray that there will be many more days in the future or even today where you wake up and are able to function well and accomplish all the things or at least half the things you set out to do.
i pray for the day that you accept yourself and don’t hide yourself or make yourself smaller so that you don’t seem “different.”
i pray for the day where none of us have to hide our symptoms and are able to get the help we need because we all deserve to.
i pray for the day where you realize that your mental illness or neurodevelopmental disorder may be apart of you and one of your features but it is not who you are. you are all the hobbies you love to do and the smiles you put on others’ faces and the clothes you choose to express yourself and all the vines you quote daily, but you are not your disorder.
