mental illness

QuickCode : mental

I don't think people realize the severity of my mental instability. I am doing more and more risky things like taking too many pills, cutting more, drinking alone (I never really was a drinker) and I think about suicide all the time. I also hate being blamed for the things I can't control.. People underestimate mental illness and see it as a character flaw more so than a disease. If I could snap my fingers and make myself better for you mom, I would.. I'm so tired of being sorry and invalidated.

keep your head up. my brother has mental illness, and my dad doesn't believe him. Things will get better, it can only go up from here. You can help yourself by learning to love who you are. Its a long road that you will struggle with, but keep going and don't give up.
