Social anxiety is looked over as "a special snowflake that's shy"
When I fucking hate it, because it prevents me from wanting to talk to my peers
and I still dwell on shit that happened in September
even stuff that happened in Grade 6, it's been three years since it happened
I would do just about anything to give up my disorder and be able to talk to people without being self-conscious and crying.

And then of course, people just say you're a snowflake from tumblr faking it. Or they just say it isn't real.

having ADHD is now looked upon as a joke
and then you get people saying "you're labelling yourself" or "you don't have so and so all these symptoms"
they don't understand ADHD can also affect you mentallyΒ
*sigh* it's not the "worse" disorder per say but i wish i didntΒ have itΒ

Your entire brain's different if you're ADHD or ADD, that's not a joke, your brain is warped and screwed up physically. It's real.

I'm slightly autistic. It's the reason why grades 1-3 were hell for me. :[

I'm a little bipolar. People notice instantly, but it's more tolerable than others...

It's okay for it to be there, just as long as it's not a constant crutch or excuse when you mess up repeatedly. Accidents happen, but only so much can be forgiven in a short while.

Same, they make it so there are no times where a disorder messing up your behavior is excusable because they use it as a constant excuse. It's a reason why things happen sometimes, not a reason to do shit all the time and never be at fault.

Yeah! Because of them, check out THIS BULLSHIT that happened to me:
When I was at my (distant) cousin's house with some of her friends over, I messed up with one of my mood swings to her grandma and I really offended her (She was being critical on me for being pretty loud, so I called her an old, hateful, wrinkly hag. <__>). I apologized and told her I was bipolar, and her friends even backed me up for it, but she said the most ignorant thing I have ever heard said to me as an insult, "Bull SHIT! That is just any excuse for you to be an asshole to me and others so that you won't get in trouble! You are a terrible little girl! ((I was 11.)) You don't even know what that is! Brat!" and she got up and went upstairs, leaving me on the brink of crying. THANK GOD THAT WAS THE LAST TIME I SAW HER!

Yeah, a lot of people get like that nowadays just because there's kids thinking having multiple personalities or being schizophrenic is cool and "who they are" when they don't know anything about those things.
It gives the real people with problems a bad reputation.

Indeed it does! And I have WAY more mental problems than just bipolar disorder, but I don't think it is really appropriate to put them all up on the Internet. It's like telling the entire planet that you just had sex with your girlfriend: unnecessary.

Oh agreed. I never understood why being a virgin or not was a topic with just anyone, it's not like it really changes anything.

Exactly, and yet here are the over-religious, picking-out-only-a-few-verses-and-chopping-them-up, bastards of society who say otherwise. =_=" Sometimes, I would rather have my own little session of church under a rock because of the way how the majority acts towards sex and sexuality. (I'm bi.)

Many people do, it's nothing to feel ashamed of, it's just something to work on overcoming and finding out what works best.

Yeah and I've learned my lessons from it many times because if there is a word that I don't know I ask my parents what it means. Like today I asked my mom what a "hypocrite" was and it was even hard for her to explain it to me but I understand what it means now. I knew a lot of disabled kids back in HighSchool because I was in specail ed because I needed that extra help from teachers because I couldn't do everything by myself.
That was the hard thing about my LD.

As long as you learn and overcome it. Finding a way to learn things that works can do wonders. In fact, once you find the right method to learning it can seem like you don't have it to an extent.

That is so true in many ways. I also knew some people that had AD/HD pretty badly in HighSchool and it was difficult to deal with that because one student gets even more hyper from drinking Gaderade and then he would crash at the end of the day.
My brother was some-what the same way but since he's older now he hardly has that problem.

True for all disorders. You get people who claim to have them just as an excuse for their behaviour, it they actually knew what they were like they wouldn't be showing off about it :/

Mr-Scarlet-Nokitsune In reply to Snivelly1997 [2011-11-21 20:37:16 +0000 UTC]
Exactly.
Disorders aren't to be flung around.
But also, people blame their disorders for their actions.
You can find ways around a disorder, disorders are not impassible, people can overcome them with hardwork and effort.

I was never good at math either, and still suck at it, but I have yet to use any of that advanced math that they tried to teach me in school in real life...why they teach it in the first place is beyond me....

Yeah, well a lot of people act like just because some people "overcome" their disorders they no longer have them. So I wanted to make this, but I also did it mostly because I wanted to practice with stamps.
I'm sure you could, I think most people give up on me too quickly and that's why I'm so bad at math. I probably could improve at it a LOT if I had someone to guide me and not scold me.
