And I also heard a commercial that said men under 35 should not drive drunk. I’m guessing it was written based on statistics of people pulled over or arrested for duis, or based on drunk driver accident stats. But the way it was worded was like only men under 35 should be careful about this lol

complete with “humming is the new maniacal laugh”

and then I remember the incidence rate of “psychotic” used to mean “evil” versus used to mean actually experiencing psychotic symptoms, and I decide I don’t trust any of us that much

For real though, a belief isn’t a delusion and being delusional is an actual thing people struggle with so maaaaaaybe rethink your attitude. ~Mod Plume

Protip: if you get mad at a demographic trying to tell you how to serve their needs better, maybe just dont do anything at all as it is obvious you're only doing it for the charity points.

cuz the other day i was talking to mom and i casually said “i have bpd” and she was like “well u Say that, but youve never been diagnosed and [insert anti-self-dx boring argument here]” and i was like *says yeah and uh-huh cuz i honestly dont care enough to have this conversation* and she was like “so what makes you think you have it??” and so i gave an example of one symptom and went into a lil detail on what that symptom’s like n stuff and she was like “hmm well i dunno i just-- i just dont see it u kno i mean i think most ppl struggle with that, u kno? and like, i just never would think of that, i wouldnt ever put you in that category” and i was like ok i’ll bite, why wouldn’t you? and so she said(and this part is a quote!) “well, you’re not manipulative” and so i just said “you don’t have to be manipulative to be borderline” and the silence afterwords was so fucking Painful
