Mental Health Illness Is Real And Should Be Taken Seriously


Personally I have a panic, anxiety, and depression disorder, all things that should be taken seriously. But lets be real for a second. No one cares if you have a mental health illness, because people will always think that you are over reacting or trying to get attention, but in reality they will never know what it is like to have a mental health disorder until they face it themselves. The sad thing is that even though they are lucky and don't have to face anxiety or severe depression on a regular basis there are millions of people out there in the world that have to face it every day. Medication helps some people, but not everyone, some people can't do anything to lessen the anxiety they face everyday. People with mental health disorders are not just trying to get attention, they are constantly mentioning it so that maybe people will be understanding and try to help them through it, or so that people will understand that maybe for example is someone doesn't talk much it doesn't mean that they don't like you or are rude or hateful or anything like that.




What I find completely absurd is the fact that there are so many people with mental health illness around the world, and it is nearly impossible to tell who around you has a disorder. Some people may not even realize that they have a disorder, and sometimes those people walk around wondering what is wrong with them, or why do they always feel so...I guess you could fill in the blank for that one because they could feel so many different things, for example they could feel negative, down, weird, abnormal, odd, strange, or weird all the time.
