i hate it when I see a post like “hey! person with stigmatized disorder here! I am a person! Please treat me like a person!” and the comments are like “wow I never thought of this” or “actually it’s not even that deep and I can do whatever I want and I don’t even have to treat you like a person” have none of you interacted with anyone ever. genuine question.
#rake yaps#said bc I was looking through the actually schizophrenic tag and so many posts were just#“Hi im schizophrenic and stop treating us like shit”#Anti psychiatry is blowing my mind WHY DO WE NEED IT. IS THAT NOT COMMON SENSE.#Obv I’m very privileged with my mental health and having disorders that are stigmatized yes but not as heavily as smth like cluster b#Listen I understand not knowing what to do when someone else is having a health episode#Whether that episode is mental or emotional or physical#however. The insistence to not do any research on WHAT TO DO WHEN THEY HAPPEN#IS ASTOUNDING#“Hm I know someone who has frequent hallucinations. I will never look into how to help someone with hallucinations.”#Or like yk ask the person#“Hey person with frequent hallucinations what do you want me to do when you are hallucinating bad”#“When do you need me to intervene”#“What do you want me to do if so”#JUST. ASK THEM????#OR GOOGLE#OR LIBRARY#READ A BOOK#LISTEN TO A BOOK EVEN#BUT GOOD GOD IM BEGGING YOU TO DO WHAT YOU CAN#like my best friend ever has bipolar and I did not know how to deal with that when we met in 6th grade!#But after years of friendship and asking her I know exactly what to do when she has a mood swing during school#guys (non gendered) PLEASEEEE
