Im losing faith in western society

Yeah, f u and your neuroprivilege.

You know it's good when it's hard to tell reality from self-parody. I could so come up with a fake profile...
I remember there was a 4chan petition attacking hollywood for it's lack of neurodiversity which got a lot of signatures. They were demanding that the next James Bond be played by an actor with Downs Syndrome

it says in HIS profile HE is a "mental health educater" then you read HIS blog:

Nearly every day for the past five months, give or take, I’ve had a moment when I glance out the window onto my street and think to myself, “I was never supposed to be here.”

This feeling isn’t new to me – I’ve dealt with “survivor’s guilt” in some form for years now – but the feeling intensified when I moved to my new apartment.

You know, the apartment that I feel like I don’t deserve for some reason or another.

Here’s the honest truth: People like me? Mentally ill queer kids, the ones that get their homophobia or transphobia with a side of psychosis? The ones whose trauma isn’t just a meal but comes with an appetizer and a fucking dessert?

This world isn’t made for us.

How would I know that? I’ve lived it.


And I don’t think I would have been so persistent about ending my life all those years ago if this were a world that saw me, validated me, affirmed me. If this were a world that had a place for me. If this were a world that held space for me.

I know this because it took me years to sit beside the window instead of dangling out of it, held in place only by someone’s hand clinging desperately to my shirt collar
, because to be queer was one thing but to be queer and crazy was another thing entirely.

There has never been a moment when I’ve forgotten that I am both. I’m not allowed to forget.

I never understand how people fail at suicide. That fellow/it/thing says "I'm still here, but it wasn't for lack of trying."

You mean to say you attempted to kill yourself multiple times and failed? Seriously. There is absolutely no fucking hope for you on this planet. Give up. You're so damn incompetent you can't even kill yourself.

Even besides guns... How hard is it to jump off a cliff, or a highway overpass, or toss yourself in front of a train.

Anyone who fails at suicide multiple times is really just faking it and doesn't at all want to die.
