I understand your viewpoint on that subject. For example: a lot of people say they have anxiety at my university, but if they did they wouldn't even be there at the moment like it's nothing. I have anxiety attacks which actually prevent me from showing up or even leaving my home. It doesn't even come from panicking about something. It can be triggered by thinking too much about something that I don't like (such as hot and humid weather).
people acting like they know everything about mental health issues, especially other people's illnesses, because they have experienced some sort of mental health issue. or people who say "if they were actually mentally ill they would do x!! ****ing fakers" or something along those lines.
"im SO ocd lol" isn't the same as someone having mild ocd or stereotypical symptoms of it.
also, there are a bunch of mentally ill people who are absolutely terrible, but that doesn't mean they aren't mentally ill. a person's individual behaviour doesn't represent everyone with a disorder but you can't say they arent sctually sick because theyre *******s and you dont want to associate with them
since when is anxiety only having panic or anxiety attacks that make you unable to leave your house. believe it or not some people have either mild cases of anxiety, different types of anxiety or are managing their disorder well enough to be in school.
Well lots of things bother me, hm, but what do I REALLY hate?
At work I have had several customers come up to me telling me how to treat my acne. I've never posted a face reveal on here or tumblr, but believe me when I say me acne is BAD. And it used to be ALOT worse. Customer have come up to me telling me to eat less sugar, rub carrots/eat carrots, rub, boil and eat aloe, one customer gave me a card for a freakin cosmetic brand, and an employee gave me a card for a dermatologist. Another employee had the nerve to pull me aside from my work and begin with 'you there's Neutrogena in the pharmacy aisle?'
*RANT WARNING*
First of all, food has little to NO effect on acne, eating or not eating a food doesn't help nor hinder. If it were as easy as that, I wouldn't have this ugly mug I do now.
Second, who are you to tell an adult how to take care of herself? Until they've lived a life and a day in my place, they don't know what they're talkin about.
Thirdly, my acne is genetic. Yes, it is a trait that can be passed down from parent to child. So there really is no fighting my acne. It's in my genes, it's not a teenager phase thing.
And last but not least, I have been dealing with this for almost a full decade (10 yrs). I think by now I know what works and what doesnt.

Anti-vaxxers. I cannot stand the ideologies they hold dear and promote.
