(caption continued) so I was talking with my dad and he was telling me about some of the mental illnesses that run in his family and OOF you guys there isn't anyone he's biologically related to that hasn't had depression (including him), some of them have struggled with alcohol addictions and anger management, one sibling had PTSD (which led to the situation that caused his death), one sibling has borderline personality disorder, my biological brother was diagnosed with depression at one point... you guys, it's a mess, it makes me think I probably should go talk to a therapist or counselor because there's a lot of serious mental health problems in this family

and I have my stuff with self-harm and feeling lethargic and I don't know... It's just scary, ya know?

(disclaimer: I'm not trying to self-diagnose myself with anything, but there are definitely things I struggle with more than I should, and in light of all this information... I don't know. It just has me worried.)

Good that you had that talk though! I think you should take it serious, I'm watching my kids very closely and we have talked about the fact that thete is a lot of mental helth issues in their father's family. Sending strength and prayers 🙏

I hope that you’re mentally okay, and that you won’t have to suffer too much. I’m here if you need anything 💞

that’s my family too lol. I think you should definitely go to a counselor. anyone with a family riddled with mental health problems should be checked up on at puberty age anyways but mine sucks and didn’t care/ignored me being bipolar lol. and do not worry about self diagnosing!!!! you have legitimate reason to wonder if you have mental health issues. you are valid and your problems are valid. please do go get checked out, if you were able to have a therapist to talk to it makes things a whole lot better. and if that’s not enough, medication took me the rest of the way so maybe it could for you.

alsO I love this memE

re: I n d e e d very f u z z y

only dizziness and disorientation. it’s probably just migraines, my mom has chronic ones. mood and sleep changes are pretty constant for me so it’s hard to tell. no vision changes tho. I’ve definitely been more explosive but there’s no pinning down why. even if it is it’ll go away within another week or so ig

This is hilarious!
