'if someone's not experiencing it personally they're probably not going to have as much of an emotional response about it' vs 'other people don't seem to find shit anywhere near as bad/disturbing/angering and it makes me feel like i'm overreacting'. fight.

#personal #to be fair. ive been getting the 'you're overreacting' my whole life so that's just a sensitive point for me in particular #it's just like. huh. i feel a little demoralized about it like maybe it really doesn't matter that much. turns back into a doormat #when i was little i had an obsession with the concept of being protected. i guess i still want that #it's no one's fault. i know people are doing the best they can. or at least i'm choosing to believe that they are because i trust them #but my brain sucks so bad and it says no one fucking cares if they did they would be doing More #and i know that's not fair. i know. i'm not holding it against anyone. or at least i'm trying not to. but the mental illness is just hell
