I think that mental illnesses (ie: depression, anxiety, bipolar,
etc..)
aren't taken seriously because people fake them to be
'cool' no, ok, no. Hearing things and seeing things
isn't cool. Only being able to feel extreme
emotions isn't cool. Not being able to leave your
house most of the time isn't cool. It's terrible,
and if you fake any illness then
you're a fùcking terrible human being.
