I hate when people brag about having disabilities (I think that's what it's called idk I'm dumb) even tho they don't have shihtzu like binc no stoap U know what I mean like for example what's happened to me a bunch of times like I have asthma (I legit have asthma I'm not of of those ppl who just say they do but don't) and like whenever I'm in the gym and I forget my inhaler and I'm having trouble breathing bla bla bla and someone comes up to me and they say "what's wrong" and I say"I can't breathe, I have asthma" or smthn like that and then they legit put their hand on their throat and just say "I have asthma too" but they don't They think asthma is fun but it's really not same with depression, I have depression too believe it or not but they think that just being sad for a day automatically makes em have depression Depression ain't fun huntis I would love to trade my asthma and depression with someone but I can't I wish I could, I truly do and also when people are perfectionist they think they have OCD. But no it's not like that at all. And it happens to other disabilities too like when like like someone I know said they have schizophrenia but I Kno they don't like do you know how scary it must be to hear voices in your head constantly telling you stuff And then the people who actually DO have problems feel like we're being made fun of (idk if I'm the only who feels like that tho but I personally think that's how someone would feel)
That's something I've heard people say too. They seem to think if you just have trouble concentrating you automatically have ADD. And if you have epilepsy then they should understand why you can't do certain things.
I used to have an online friend who had a uncle who had schizophrenia, they told me about it so what I wrote in the status is most likely not as accurate as I wish it would be. They told me that their uncle wasn't able to distinguish reality from imaginary or something among those lines. And yes that makes a lot of sense. Being proud of something like depression is very uh suspicious? Probably not the correct word I'm looking for but I'm not good with words aha
I agree, they tend to not believe you when you say you have something because normally at first glance the person with the disability doesn't seem like they have something wrong, or that the person who actually has it is one of those people that brag about it even if its fake although the person ACTUALLY has the disability, if that makes sense...And yes, it's so messed up that people think you have to be emo to have depression and to be suicidal and all that
