The not so funny thing about mental illness
I’ve met a lot of people who flaunt their mental illness. They use it as an excuse to be bad to other people and to themselves, and they want all the attention that comes from that. They’re upset and need help and assume that needing help means they have a mental illness. And maybe they do, maybe they really have that mental illness. But the problem with so many people using things like depression and anxiety for attention is that it forms an image in people’s heads that mental illness is something that exists only when something bad has happened, and that everything will be ok once the situation improves. I’m gonna be honest: this gets me so angry. Not so much angry as jealous. I’m jealous of these people that can just switch off their mental illness when they’re happy. I’m happy. Everything in my life is objectively amazing, but it’s still so hard just to keep getting out of bed every day. I feel guilty cause there are people out there with problems and I want to end it all even though everything is amazing. But that’s just it; Mental illnesses don’t care what’s happening around you, they’ll do anything to keep you in their grasp. It’s not fun and it isn’t fair. Which is why when people use mental illness for their own gain without actually having it I get so upset. We should all be able to get help, with or without an illness, but these illnesses aren’t a trend or something cool to look up to, they ruin lives. Lives like mine. But, this isn’t about me. Not really. It’s about everyone with mental illnesses that they can’t just turn off when they get bored or want to be happy. I want to acknowledge the struggles they go through daily, the strain on their relationships, jobs, personal hygiene, even when everything is going well. You deserve better, and I hope one day you can find it one day.

I don’t know if you guys have heard but Eugenia Cooney seems to be making a recovery!!!
This is a recent photo of her posted by her hair dresser! For those of you who don’t know who Eugenia Cooney is, she is a YouTuber who has not been on the internet for quite some time now, as she has been recieving treatment for an eating disorder she has denied having for years. Everyone who watched her videos and/or followed her online in any way felt extremely helpless, as we were watching her wither away more and more day by day. So many fans and other people online reached out to her and she ended up making a tweet saying that she is taking a break from the internet and working with a doctor privately. Several people sent messages to her friends and family who confirmed that she was recieving in-patient treatment. It was amazing news to hear because she looked like she should have died from starvation a long time ago. I will not post pictures of her before here because it could be triggering to some people but feel free to look her up online. She is still not officially back online but did consent to her hair dresser posting this photo. Her steps toward recovery are a huge inspiration for anyone who has struggled with an eating disorder. I hope that once she is back online she will continue down this path toward recovery and keep being an inspiration to anyone who has ever struggled with an eating disorder. There is hope- and Eugenia is proving that.
I had three shots today and my arms hurt like hell.
P.S. Vaccinate your kids motherfuckers!
