Fashion Trends?



Troye Sivan tweeted something like this "I feel so sorry for the people that actually have mental illnesses and other people are trying to turn them into fashion trends." I smiled when I saw that, because it is absolutely 100% true. I hate when people that actually don't have a mental illness try to convince other people that they actually do. First off, having a mental illness is not cool, yes it does make you different, but it is not fun. When I used to have social media, people would cut themselves and then post the picture on some site. Sometimes the captions would say ' help' or 'lost'. I feel deeply sorry for the people that are actually struggling with self-harm, but throughout all the time of me being in therapy all the people I have ever met that has a hard time with that kind of stuff would NEVER post pictures of their cuts on the internet. They are your personal business, and you should keep them to yourself. Cutting though has become one of the things that seems cool to society. The thing though is that people actually struggle with those things. Self harm is literally cutting open your own body. I cannot find a single way at how that could be cool. People really need to understand that that is not cool, it is extremely offensive. I'm honestly just going to leave it at that. Stay strong forever and always.
