Bo Burnham deserves so much more credit for this scene during “Sexting”. It’s only on screen for a moment but him establishing consent and bringing light to its importance really meant something to me. Especially in a time where sexting and sending nudes is common practice, I think him saying that she does not have to follow through with sending anything is comforting and important.

How does it feel to be confident that you belong?

I don’t know, it’s lonely here.

sometimes you say or do bad things while you’re in an awful mental place. sometimes you say things that are rude or uncalled for or manipulative. and i’m not going to hold that against you. mental illness is hard, and no one is perfect. but once you’re through that episode, you need to take steps to make amends. you need to apologize.

“i couldn’t help it, i was having a bad episode” is a justification, not an apology.

“i’m so fucking sorry, i fucked up, i don’t deserve to live, i should stop talking to anyone ever, i should die” is a second breakdown and a guilt trip. it is not an apology.

when you apologize, the focus should be on the person you hurt. “i’m sorry. i did something that was hurtful to you. even if i was having a rough time, you didn’t deserve to hear that,” is a better apology. if it was a small thing, you can leave it at that.

if you caused significant distress to the other person, this is a good time to talk about how you can minimize damage in the future. and again, even if it is tempting to say you should self-isolate and/or die, that is not a helpful suggestion. it will result in the person you’re talking to trying to talk you out of doing that, which makes your guilt the focus of the conversation instead of their hurt.

you deserve friendship, and you deserve support. but a supportive friend is not an emotional punching bag, and mental illness does not absolve you of responsibility for your actions. what you say during a mental breakdown doesn’t define you. how you deal with the aftermath though, says a lot.

“Havana Chapman-Edwards is a first-grader in Alexandria, Va. She was the only student from Fort Hunt Elementary School to participate in a walk out in protest of gun violence on Friday, April 20, 2018.

At first, 7-year-old Havana Chapman-Edwards was devastated that she was the only student in her class at Fort Hunt Elementary School to walk out.

“It really sank my heart to pieces,” Havana. said.

According to ABC7’s Tim Barber, Havana’s mom signed her daughter out of school because the elementary schooler said she wanted to participate in the national walkout.

Her mom says she was crushed to see Havana sitting by herself, but then she became inspired by her daughter for standing up for what she believes in.”
