“people can’t handle any mental illness other than anxiety and depression” bestie people can’t even handle anxiety and depression if it has any real impact on your life

Susan Sontag wrote that "Depression is melancholy minus its charms." For me, living with depression was at once utterly boring and absolutely excruciating.

Lonely nights.

i think it's beyond fucked that medical professionals expect you to deal with misery as long as it's not actually killing you. even when there are procedures and therapies and medications, doctors always wait until the very last second until it's actually life or death. preventative medicine is so hard to find. sick and disabled people are forced to live with misery simply because we're not actively dying.

nobody should have to sit around miserable just because they *technically* can survive this. is it really even surviving when you can't function?

[becherdireinen]

may you never go back to the dark places you fought so hard to get out of

"You handled it so well'

No, I didn't. I went insane, lost my spark, bled in silence, shattered in private, and wore a smile that lied better than any mask could.

[deanxfuckingadorablexwinchester]

And people think it's a compliment. It's not like I have an option? Trust me if I did I wouldn't be dealing with this shit.

Feeling like you're too much is honestly one of the worst feelings to possibly exist. It just feels like you need to stop being yourself and existing all together. It's like you crawl out of your own skin and laugh in disgust at what remains, it's pathetic. And so saddening.
