"I saw a girl with cuts all down her arms earlier tonight. I saw her eyes. I could read on her face that she was in no state to be outside of her house. I could view how badly she needed help and a better place. I legitimately was nearly tearing up. It really affects me seeing people in that state, knowing what they’re going through, what they’re feeling and how the world around them must truly be awful for them to be doing such acts.

Depression, anxiety and other similar things ARE serious problems that DO have serious affects on people who you may not think would ever breakdown. Some people really fucking need to re-think the way they treat the one’s around them. Whether you like or dislike, love or hate someone because of the way they look or act, or because of their race, religion, sexuality, skin colour, appearance, where they live, their background, family, siblings, or friends, that gives you no fucking right to manipulate them, or hurt them in any way shape or form, joke or not. Some people have no fucking idea how much they are/could be psychologically harming others in ways that cannot ever be mended. Ways in which people will never be able to forget or possibly move on from.

We as a society (and as fucking human beings, for fuck sake) need to back up and take a long, hard look at ourselves and what we’re doing, and think - “Is what we’re saying really just a joke, or could it really be affecting people?” “What are they thinking when they bow their heads, when they turn away?” “Is what we’re saying right?”

Words can and do hurt people, but in the scheme of things, the words are really harmless. When you dwell into things it’s the persons mouth that those words are coming out of that is the cause for people’s heartache and mental/physical breakdowns. The REAL cause. It’s their minds that lack common fucking sense, and their hearts that lack compassion that cause people to do certain things, make them hate themselves and not feel loved. No one should ever feel like that. No one should ever think of those things or do those. Ever. Regardless of anything.

This world honestly sickens me sometimes."
