Makes me upset that people think mental and emotional illnesses like depression, anxiety, etc is a choice. Do you really think I or anyone else would CHOOSE that for themselves? Really?

It's hard for people to understand that which they've never experienced for themselves -- you can try to explain, but it'll never fully click in their brains. You just have to go on and know that you know what's best for yourself, disregarding those who don't get it.

In the immortal words of Dr. Seuss: "Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind."
