Re: Confession thread
(Anonymous) 2015-03-28 10:11 pm (UTC)(link)As someone who is both suicidal, and bi or some variant of gay, I hate that campaign. It's awful.
OP, the thing is, though - you're not your uncle. You don't HAVE to be your uncle.
(eg. I'm very similar in temperament to my grandmother, who is so anxious she lives all alone in her little house. My mother directly compares me to her. But I don't want to be her. So I choose to do stuff sometimes that stretches my boundaries. I'm slowly trying to be more social and one day I would love to be in a relationship, when I can work up the guts.)
You don't have to be him.
Fate isn't set in stone, OP. No, it may not necessarily "get better." And it's really fucking trite when people act like mental illness is something that can be cured. My parents and people around me expect to wake up one day and be normal again.
Honestly? It's never going to go away, not really, BUT THAT IS NOT A DEATH SENTENCE. It's more like... you have bad days, but those bad days aren't eternal. There are good times, too, and those are the things you hang around for, because they are so worth it. It's more like you're managing it, day by day, and yeah, it may not go away, but you become stronger.
You're like a warrior fighting a dragon. Every battle you become more and more of a seasoned fighter. You learn new tricks, you get new armor and weapons. Dragons will always exist, but they can be fought.
And at this point the dragon is sort of a part of me, in a weird kind of way. I know that doing everday little things can sometimes be a battle- and that makes me brave. It makes YOU brave, OP.
