To the adhd anon: I’m really glad that you got diagnosed and given meds right away! But, just so you know: most of those meds can have p serious side affects... I say that from experience, I ignored the side affects for years, thinking I was supposed to feel like shit all the time, but turns out I wasn’t and I ended up in a hospital... so pay attention to your physical and mental health, don’t let thing get too bad, and know that you can need a different dosage, or a different type of med!

A simple mental health pain scale.

I’m so thankful this exists. I think that many people with mental health issues (myself included) downplay what they’re going through.

I’m an 8 right now. If I hadn’t seen this chart tonight I’d keep denying my struggle. Now I have to face it.

To the anon that said their mental health is keeping them from being an astrophysicist, here’s what I learned from my own mental disorder: you have to *decide* that you will not let your mental health keep you from doing what you want. You have to decide that you will do whatever it takes. And it’s fucking hard. It feels like you’re rolling a huge stone uphill and it’s seems like you’re getting nowhere, but then one day you look back and see how far you’ve gotten and it’s all worth it then. (:

Yes!! I’ve gone through a similar experience. I was depressed and didn’t feel like I was doing enough but about a month later I was presenting my research at my unis physics seminar and god it was so worth it

both times ive gone to see a doctor about my mental health they've written it off as being a teenager or a natural reaction to sad things or hormones or menstruation, and i cant tell them the entirety of whats wrong because my throat closes up so i cant say stuff

Be as assertive as you can be, tell them you know you have a mental health issue. If they decline to test you or look into it, tell them you want it written in their notes that THEY decided against not looking into it. They will almost always look into it after that because if they acknowledge your concern and decide against investigating and something were to go wrong because of said thing, they will be at risk of a malpractice suit.

Tuca & Bertie is the sort of adult cartoon that feels like it’s like other cartoons… except it’s better. I can make a whole list but I’ll just note here that it’s got that Bro feel minus misogyny and their Adult content isn’t raunchy.

I say that having watched BoJack Horseman. The difference is that BoJack is about mental health and cultural critique whereas Tuca & Bertie is about friendship and adulting. The former is cynical, the latter is indulgent. Both have merit. I just want more indulgence.

I will be as obnoxious as I need to be in order for more people to try this show because it’s so diverse and brilliantly written. We need more adult cartoons like Tuca & Bertie.

me when i get called out for ruining 2 marriages

brokeshibe

It’s actually much worse because the context of this was, she made this post in response to a black youtuber committing suicide, alleging it was due to “cancel culture” - he wasn’t “cancelled” at any point, he just had untreated and unresolved mental health problems (i.e. depression), which led to the unfortunate outcome.

She then decided to use that as an excuse to soapbox about her getting “cancelled” after she cheated on her husband with another married man, and it came out and both marriages were broken up because of it.

A white woman using a black man’s suicide to basically call out people who rightly decided she was shit…Y I K E S

Popular YouTuber Desmond "Etika" Amofah found dead

Amofah was first reported missing nearly a week ago.

Etika’s decline in mental health has been an incredibly publicized and undoubtedly humiliating ordeal for him over this past year. It was really obvious that he needed help for a very long time, but as is too often the case, he was unwilling to get the help himself. This caused a lot of mockery online, because everyone assumed he was just doing it for attention, but I guess this is another lesson that this kind of behavior needs to be taken seriously. If you have family, friends, or anyone else who you know is acting out like this, don’t just brush it off as being done for attention. It’s likely a cry for help from someone who is having trouble getting help themselves.

This isn’t to say that nobody took Etika’s need for help seriously, but in the end, he made it clear that he felt he had nobody left who believed in him for reasons he blamed himself for.

If you are okay with watching what is essentially a suicide note in video form, this video does really give a clear look into the mind of someone who’s decided that the only way to make up for pushing everyone in their life away is to kill themselves.

There’s only so much you can take away from a situation like this - not everyone can be talked out of doing or saying bad things, and not everyone can be convinced to get the help they need. There’s not an objectively correct way to handle every problem. The only thing you can really do is try to be there for each other when it matters.
