being mentally ill + suicidal at a young age (before 18) is. strange, because you grow up with this idea that one day you’ll finally snap, turn off, be brave enough to kill yourself, so you don’t really plan for the future. adulthood- further life, it isn’t for you, nor do you feel included within the future of it. it isn’t.. it isn’t part of your life plan.
and then before you know it you’re 18 and you’re an adult but you never thought you’d get this far and sure it’s great that you’re still alive you guess but also. you feel so alone + lost in a world you never expected or planned to be a part of.
- mentally ill person: *calls doctor* Yes hello doctor i have a problem
- Doctor: yes hello patient who i somehow always have time for. pls come down to my office in 10 minutes to discuss this problem
- mentally ill person: okey dokey
- Doctor: and of course i know u r only a student, so i will give you this doctors visit for a $5 copay!!!! now please, tell me about ur problem. do not worry about time restraints this office exists in a void where the time limits to visits dont apply.
- mentally ill person: *is able to describe symptoms accurately, concisely, and perfectly.*
- Doctor: You this one diagnosis perfectly without any oddities. here is your magical diagnosis paper. you now have this disease. you did not have it before. here are magic pills that can cure your disease forever!!! am i a psychiatrist or a psychologist? I don't know
- mentally ill person: *takes pill and is suddenly 100% functional and 'normal'* Now i am permitted to talk to neurotypicals again</p>

Don’t fool yourself into thinking ladies were demure and silent in the past.
I would like more female characters being this open
What she says: I’m fine.
What she means: How is Pokemon GO going to work? Is every pokemon going to be within a distance for everyone to collect them? Am I going to have to travel across the world just to get an Eevee? Will pokemon show up at my college? In my room? How does it work? Am I going to have to climb a mountain just to look at a Geodude? How big are we talking of a game space? Will people actually join me in a pokemon fight? How many people are going to have this were I live? Field pokemon in fields? What if I live in a city? Only garbage pokemon? What does this mean? I need answers.
