my friend red

red is my friend.

she is sarcastic, overly-blunt, critical, defensive, self-aggrandizing, self loathing.

this walking contradiction. this nebulous figure in our head that screams that it exists. BUT ISN'T ALLOWED.

eventually, some of us decided to actively reach out to him. a lot of early attempts were destroyed by him. but slowly, the barrier on expression was lifted.

and we saw her turmoil first hand. we experienced her crisis of purpose. we experienced her fight for identity. we saw her panic attacks, and we began to understand her habits. we got to know red.

red grabs our turmoil by the neck and barks at us to run while it gouges him.

every part of us that is unpalatable, forbidden, impossible, terrifying, it goes to him. he holds it.

his methods are extremely questionable. his desire for retribution is dangerous. she is enraged. for us. and she is tired.

red is my friend.

Even looking at cases where mentally ill people ARE violent towards others, if you look closely there's a lot of cases of a mentally ill person being denied autonomy or otherwise abused leading to said mentally ill person acting out violently in direct response to this - but instead of looking at this cycle in the context of how traumatizing and triggering a lot of psychiatric treatment is, and how intensely people can react to being dehumanized, all it ever leads to is pointing at every example of violent behavior as proof that mentally ill people can't and shouldn't be trusted with the autonomy which might have prevented a violent altercation altogether.
