  • Just my experience. If your family or friends notice and help you, especially when younger, it can be a huge help. I’m just bitter cause I figured this out, and other big mental health issues, in my 40s. Some people get help right away, but sometimes you have to ask, and others, you have to beg and hope you make it.

    Not to be bleak. I think realizing that you and only you are responsible for your physical and mental well being. Take care of those as best as you can and the way you want or need. It may hurt people but again, you are your #1 person in whatever reality you live in. You can feel better it just takes time and processing all emotions and looking out for you.✌️

    For me it was hiding my emotions while dying of anxiety inside. I thought it was normal for people to have multiple streams of thought at once and to wake up with your mind immediately racing til bed. I did it though, college, kids, house, corporate IT career, until I couldn’t handle the grind of daily life and burned out hardcore, several times. Also drank excessively for 20 years.

    Thankfully, you can get treated for depression and anxiety for decades, then spend thousands of dollars to get an official ADHD diagnosis, maybe. And the stimulants make my anxiety and depression so much better, and they are super easy to get. Also, no one will question if you really have ADHD, support all the way. Then, back to the grind which you’ll run right into with a smile everyday. I love it! It’s the best!



  • Thank you.

    I’m fucking disgusted that we’re at a place where it’s still normal to celebrate these old white degenerate slave owning religious fucks that only had freedom because they took it violently. THEIR hard earned freedom, at no cost to themselves other than time and money. Bring your bitches and slaves, clear out the savages, import subhuman livetock to do the work and suffering for you and, BOOM! You’ve got white feeedom, and it’s finger lickin’ good.

    It was a business then just like now. These were the CEOs of their time who made this beautiful place into a playground for white colonists (dangerous fucking immigrants) like so much of the world. Their white relatives are still reaping the benefits like a motherfucker, consciously oblivious that blacks and others are still in slavery. Out of sight out of mind let’s go to Starbucks. My white relatives owned hundreds of acres up until I was a teenager. I was proud of that until I grew up and understood why they had that land in the first place.

    Stop over reacting, this is your mental health, no one else is having this strong of a reaction, you’re not seeing reality, you’re a black American not an immigrant so you’re safe, other minorities are not afraid, what makes you so special that you think you’re a target?

    I’ve spent the last week being told these things and more by people who have admitted they’re unafraid because they’re white. These same people that I thought had my back and said they understood for the last 20 years. I’m literally questioning if I should prepare for the worst without my family or check myself into a mental hospital because everyone around me is telling me to wait and see what the white nationalists do. There is no imminent threat to myself.

    This whole scenario is solidifying my belief that we’re just alone in the world and if you’re dark skinned no one is going to protect you here. My white family members and friends are calling me one of the good ones every fucking day but think because of different wording it doesn’t mean the same goddamn thing. I’m so fucking pissed and disaappinted. I’m waiting to die or get arrested while everyone else is going to Starbucks and talking about future vacation plans.
