I'm interested in MIlitarism and Culture, Globalization, The State, Transnationalism, and Social Movements among others.This blog will be very anthropological (well everything is really) as well as just expressing my thoughts, emotions, opinions, angers, hatred, happiness, sadness, imagination, poetry, words, darkness, pleasures,excitement, observations, reservations and so on and so on. This is MiGgS and this is my life.

Communicate. That’s the biggest and best first thing you can ever do. Whether it be with a teacher, sibling, friend, parent or even a counselor. Being able to communicate is the first step to your life getting better. It doesn’t have to be even talking; it can be a letter or email or text…let people know what’s going on in your life, your thoughts and emotions. People can and will help you, you just need to search them out. Oh and one last thing, never EVER let someone bring you down. You’re you, and you is always good enough. Never stray from who you are because you never know who will come along and want and love “you”.

Are you hurting right now? I’m sorry. Times can get bad. Life can sometimes be down right shitty. Maybe you relapsed for the first time, or even the tenth time. Maybe you had a panic attack and isolated yourself from friends and family today. Maybe you’re someone who thinks they don’t have any friends or family to care about them. For whatever it is you’re going through, I want you to take a deep breath, fuck it, take 5 deep breaths. In through your nose and out through your mouth. Relax. Remain calm. You can do this. Life will go on and you need to be around to see what happens next, okay?

Support can make a huge difference when someone is hitting a rough patch. Why wait until then to let your friends know you’ll be there? Take a stand for Mental Health Awareness and tag someone you care about to let them know you have their back. ‪

On how to help someone with depression

[phiiloophoobiiaa]

I think my smile does not fool everyone around me as easily as it used to. I need to find a new way to fake my happiness.

Some clinically depressed people have less brain activity than fully functioning healthy brains do.
