I have reached a point where I am comfortable talking about my depression and anxiety.
I'm okay with casually mentioning it in conversation.
When someone else has depression and/or anxiety, and I mention mine, we generally bond.
I mentioned my depression and anxiety to someone who most people know has depression and anxiety.
I don't let my mental health problems show because I don't want to bother other people or put them in a bad mood.
So after I mention them this girl says to me,
"If that's you, then what am I?"
I barely kept myself from saying "A bad actor."
I know that's rude, but who is she to act like my pain is lesser than hers just because I don't show it as much?
Why do we always measure things by what we can see?
This is another prime example of our comparatives of each other.
