you think you’re faking depression? oh ok, then you know, stop being sad. it’s a conscious choice to fake, so just stop it. get off tumblr, stop reblogging sad shit, and be happy. let’s see how that’ll work out for you. if you think you’re faking, you can stop doing it right now.
you think you’re faking anxiety?oh ok, then stop being nervous. if you start feeling like you can’t breathe then just stop it. if you really didn’t have it, you could do that. but can you stop?
oh, you think you’re faking ADHD? oh ok,you have 2 weeks of incomplete homework,so just do it. what’s stopping you? what’s blocking you? if you didn’t have it why can’t you just start writing right now? just stop.
you think you’re faking an eating disorder? oh ok, then go to the kitchen right now, yes, right now, and eat. DON’T count calories, don’t obsess over it, don’t puke it up, finish the whole thing. why can’t you do it? nobody’s stopping you.
this applies to all mental illnesses. there is reason why your brain is giving you these thoughts, ‘’you’re fakingggg!!’’, it’s hard to become aware of how ill you are, your brain is trying to cope in the best way it can, by pretending you’re fine. but it’s ok to not be ok. you are not faking, even if you were subconsciously faking somehow (which almost never happens), the pain is real and valid and you deserve and need help. everytime you feel like you’re faking, keep all of this in mind.
you can try to save this post or write it somewhere, or screenshot it when you feel bad.
please, reblog and boost this, more people need to hear it. you deserve to heal and be happy and ok. if yall like this I’ll make more~
