i don’t think i fully realized until now how hypocritical, disgusting, and honestly fucking sickening tumblr’s attitude towards positivity posts is?
like. you want people to cope in ways you deem positive and healthy? and then when people do that, you make fun of them for it and turn it into a joke? fuck you all from the bottom of my heart
like
mentally ill people: i haven’t been able to find coping mechanisms that work for me
tumblr: that’s unhealthy and you’re anti-recovery unless you spend every fucking minute of your time trying to find coping mechanisms
mentally ill people: okay, i’ve started using dark humor to help myself cope
tumblr: that’s unhealthy and you’re anti-recovery unless you cope in Good Wholesome Positive Ways That Are Approved Of By Me
mentally ill people: okay, i’ve started searching out positivity blogs that tell me i’m valid
tumblr: *mocks the concept of positivity blogs and validation, turning them into a meme, to the point where what used to be an important coping mechanism for me now makes me feel worse and even seeing the word “valid” makes me feel sick*
mentally ill people: okay, since clearly anything i do will be used against me, i guess i’ll go back to the dark humor. it seems fitting.
tumblr: that’s unhealthy and you’re anti-recovery

bizarropurugly replied to your post: Man if I could go without seeing…
tell me the things
They’re popular for a lot of “tough love” / “hard truth” posts about mental illness and executive dysfunction which in itself made me suspicious of them because I have never ever seen a single post of that type that has been genuinely helpful or good
You know, the ones about how “it still helps a little” if you just drink water and shower and go for a walk every day, and if you don’t you’re sabotaging your recovery, those ones, the shitty yoga instructor ones
But then a few months ago when those stress burnout bingo cards were popular they vomited out this wretched post about how school and honors courses and overzealous parents aren’t that traumatizing and anybody over 20 who said they were still burned out from things that happened when they were teenagers was just looking for an excuse to be sick and engaging in “victim culture”
When you start throwing the same playing cards around as my stepmother who told me that I was choosing to be depressed you have zero of my respect
being The Ugly Friend, The Family Disappointment, The Closeted Gay Cousin and The Failure all at once is lots of work to do it’s tiring
