i hate that if you're suicidal you essentially get threatened to keep quiet and pretend you're okay or they'll send you to something that is basically just jail

i can't tell the truth to the people who "want to help me" i went to a psychiatrist recently and i had to answer a bunch of questions. and i lied because i don't want to get hospitalized

"are you experiencing any suicidal thoughts right now?" yes "not really "

"have you ever attempted?" yes "no"

"do you have a plan for how you would do it?" yes "no"

"do you hurt yourself?" yes "no"

this is stupid. the system isn't meant to help people it's meant to make people shut up and kill themselves quietly without causing a fuss and if they won't do that they get locked up.

Lil Nas X says he's 'feeling better' after rehab and bipolar diagnosis

The Old Town Road star was arrested last year for attacking police officers and later entered rehab.

One of my favorite scenes in 'Short Term 12' is Jayden's story, 'The Octopus and the Shark'

being suicidal is my normal, i have been suicidal for years. but that’s not one of those things you can really talk about without people either pushing you to go inpatient or just straight up force you to.

all this does is make it so i can’t be honest with people i should be able to be honest with, medical staff of any kind the most.

suicidal ideation needs to be destigmatised yesterday, we need to allow people to talk about it without fearing for their freedom and rights being violated.

reminder to stop fucking taking mental health terms and applying them to normal human experiences that a lot of people have regardless of their mental health!

stop saying you have a "special interest"/you're "hyperfixating" on something when you just like it a lot!

stop saying you're "overstimulated" when you're just overwhelmed!

stop saying you're "dissociating" when you're just zoning out!

stop saying you're "so OCD" because you like to be clean/organized!

stop saying you're "delusional/delulu" because you hope the person you like might like you back!

stop calling things "traumatizing"/saying you're "traumatized" when you see something that was a just a little weird or scary or uncomfortable and left no real lasting damage on you!

stop calling people/things "psychotic" when you mean violent/homicidal! (people in psychosis aren't inherently dangerous btw)

and most of all!!

stop fucking calling people/things schizo!!!! full stop!!!! there is never a good reason for it!!!! schizophrenics have enough to worry about without hearing you say that shit!!!! fuck dude omg

anyway feel free to add to this if you reblog it :]

Look I know this is nothing new to tumblr users specifically but I still need to say it:

I think we should have sex with friends more often. Not just because some of my friends are real hot and I'm jealous of their partners. But most importantly because it's up to us queer people (especially the poyamorous, ace and aro folk) to challenge the preconceived notions about what normal expressions of sexuality and romantism look like. Because who we are already challenges the deepest roots of the way people think about intimacy (that you're expected to have a single person in your life that is your one favourite person and you want to have sex with that same person and nobody else)

I'm real done with the idea that certain ways of expressing care are only for one person in one's life. I hold my friends' hands, I compliment them and yes, I would 'go further' (interesting that sex is seen universally as something more intimate than let's say kissing. When I can think of multiple people with whom kissing would be peak intimacy)

Also it's a much safer way to explore your sexuality than hooking up with strangers from dating apps :] (No shade if you like that though, it's just. With a friend you at least know them enough to know what to expect when you act a certain way)

Also also we don't need a label like friend with benefits. It's just a friend. The fact that one has sex with said friend shouldn't be any different than a 'bake pies with' friend or 'cosplay together' friend. Why is this one action deserving of a specific phrass? (It's because we put sex on a pedestal as an ultimate intimate act. And it doesn't have to be)

it's up to us all, but especislly those that already don't fit the mold, to carve out our own way of experiencing intimacy.

So yeah, if you want to, fuck a friend for me please and tell ne how it goes

i don't know how to be friends with anyone my age. i want to so badly but i just don't.

i think if my husband ended our marriage with a note that said “i could never rescue you” i would end up on the news

NOBODY is excusing or supporting abuse when they talk about how narc abuse isnt real. you are making this up in your head.

90% of the time these people ABSOLUTELY preface first that your abuse wasnt okay and when they start talking about how you shouldnt blame a trauma based disorder for the abuse your abuser did you start freaking out. do you realize how pathetic it is to completely ignore when these people say it isnt okay to demonize a disorder people obviously dont choose to have.

you're blaming the narcissism. you're blaming the abuse on the narcissism. you aren't blaming the person for the abuse, you're blaming the disorder they have for their actions, not blaming the person themself.

As it turns out, the "safer parent" wasn't actually safe because they were complicit in the other parent's abuse. Sure, they didn't hit you, but when you got hit, they didn't protect you either and that doesn't make them safe, it makes them an enabler. Being complicit in the face of abuse is a form of abuse.

Over the last nine years, I've been trying to write a novel about love, fame, and the machine that grinds private experience into public attention. I've given up writing it many, many times. But today, I get to tell you: Hollywood, Ending--my first novel in nine years--is available for preorder now.

It's a story about big stuff--falling in love, living with trauma, navigating the relationship between the authentic self and the performed one--and writing it has often been challenging. But it's also been FUN. After The Fault in Our Stars was published, I kind of forgot how fun writing could be, and this story allowed me to work my way back to true joy in writing, and I'm so grateful for that experience and I really hope you love this book. I am so excited to share it with you.

And yes, you can preorder a signed copy now at http://hollywoodendingbook.com, because I'm signing 82,000 copies of the first printing, because I simply cannot resist the urge to sign books. Hollywood, Ending comes out on September 22nd.

i fear this website will never be ready to acknowledge that children can sexually assault other children

or that the victims of other children have a really hard time working through it because the person who assaulted them was innocent, didn't know it was wrong, and was almost certainly a victim themselves

i just want to know people like me. but there’s like no one and i feel like i’m assumed to be faking when i tell people everything i’m diagnosed with, even though i’m openly critical of the dsm at the same time. i just want to know people like me. it’s so fucking isolating here.
