As an advocate for mental health awareness, I find this beyond repulsive.
NEW RULE: At least one year of experience working in the mental health field should be mandatory before any presidential candidates/politicians can speak up on the topic of mental illness.
I refuse to remain silent when individuals struggle with autism/PTSD/depression on a daily basis yet STILL continue to be stigmatized by society as self-loathing/entitled brats.
I’m sure you are “sick of it.” It must be really emotionally taxing for someone as fortunate as you to pander to the lowest common denominator by having to listen to their struggles.. but..
Lack of acknowledgment does not equal lack of presence!
For the love of all that is good in this world, keep Donald Trump the FUCK out of office.
SHIT. MY BROTHER IS AUTISTIC
let me tell you, it is not a fucking ACT
he’s not a brat, he’s the nicest person I know
My brother, he’d give you the shirt off his back if you needed it
he’d give you his food if you were hungry, even if it meant he had nothing to eat
My depression is not self- loathing, and I’m not entitled
SIGNAL BOOST THE FUCK OUT OF THIS, KEEP TRUMP OUT OF OFFICE BY ANY MEANS NECCESSARY
I am actually tearing up at this. Please keep Trump out of office.
