Here’s a helpful hint…

Here’s a tip on how NOT to be a dick…If someone tells you they have a mental illness, don’t ask them if they were ACTUALLY DIAGNOSED BY A DOCTOR, or if they saw it online and wanted to be cool. ???

I shouldn’t have to say this, but if someone discloses to you they have a mental illness, take them at their word. Unless you are their psychologist/psychiatrist you HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THEY ARE GOING THROUGH.

If you think they’re faking/malingering…Keep your opinions to your fucking self. If it really bothers you, walk away, ghost, whatever…Just don’t assume that you know what a person is thinking/feeling because you’ve googled and gone on YouTube or read articles.

It’s not your business, it’s not your right, and it’s a FUCKING DICK MOVE to assume otherwise.
