All answers welcome, I'll start: The insane degree to which politics and religion infect everything.
I get what you mean, people who've never experienced what we have make it sound so easy to just recover and live a normal life... if that were the case this website wouldn't exist. I'm sorry things are so rough right now. Hopefully you can find some solace here, it's a bit of an escape from the lack of understanding everywhere else at least.I see how bad things have gotten in my own life and realize that I have limited potential because of it, whereas most people still hold an optimistic and positive outlook for my situation.
I believe this is mainly because they have not experienced life with a mental illness, and choose not to engage in discussion pertaining to the true nature of the affliction.
Maybe my perspective is jaded by my own experience, but I don't have blind optimism nor faith that things will get better.
I struggle with this. My parents have such unrealistic expectations about my future. I'm no longer the golden child who's "just a little rough around the edges". The time to fix this shit is long past. At this point, it is very clear that I will struggle to a considerable degree for the rest of my life. Whether I have the willpower to keep myself alive until after they die remains to be seen.I see how bad things have gotten in my own life and realize that I have limited potential because of it, whereas most people still hold an optimistic and positive outlook for my situation.

It is comforting to me. Imagine if humans were actually as important as they thought they were, and they actually had any effect on anything that happens in the grand scheme of the universe. That would be a world even worse than this one.That the universe is billions of years old. That the amount of time and space that humans actually take up in the galactic time line is the same as a grain of sand on an endless beach. We are insignificant. We do not matter. Nothing we do will affect this world or this universe. When human life finally wipes itself out the earth will heal. It will move on as if we were never here. It won't take as long as anyone thinks for all traces of the human race to be gone forever. I look to the stars in awe. We are just passing through. That death is just our passageway to infinity.
I could go on and on lol.. just a small glimpse into why I want to ctb.
