Nothing Angers Me More Than...

Someone telling me or ANYONE to just "GET OVER IT" I mean how dare you! I need to vent about this because not only have I been told this by friends, family and even complete strangers and nothing angers me more!  Literally how dare you in your right mind tell someone with a debilitating disease to just get over it. Would you tell someone with Cancer to just get over it?? Would you tell someone wheel chair bound to just get up and walk?? NO.
Just because you can't physically see our disability with your eyes doesn't mean it's not there. It's known as an {Invisible Disease/Invisible Illness} We still suffer from it EVERYDAY! Some are stronger than others and some it consumes and ends their life. So make sure you figure out your words and think about what to say before you ask or talk to someone who has a mental illness because you NEVER know what will affect them. You will never know if that person just tried to commit suicide the night before, or if this person will go home and cut themselves because of YOUR comment to relieve the pressure of whats inside them, or a young woman who will go home and make herself vomit up her meal to fit into society in her HEAD. Or someone (who like myself years ago) will take more pills than they should to just dull the pain and just be able to FEEL like they are floating and weightless of their problems.. but that ONE time might be the LAST time because it might be one pill too many.

Mental Illness is REAL it's not a stigma or fake.. So please be aware of it and support someone who suffers from it because you don't know how badly we just want someone who will have our backs and be in our corner!

Until next time Warriors.. Remember I'M IN YOUR CORNER AND I SUPPORT YOU!
