RANT INCOMING: TW FOR MENTAL HEALTH TALKS
after seeing sooo many people heading off of wattpad yesterday, I've decided to get off as well. I might post stuff on the occasion, but I don't think I'll ever be fully back.
this app has just been so so so bad for my mental health--because every single time i go on here, I see someone vent without any trigger warnings or anything, and i read it and immediately just go back into that bad mental state.
and I see so many people talking so freely on what they do to themselves and how they want to off themselves every few posts on their community tab. I'm not saying you shouldn't ever tell someone about that, but it can genuinely ruin someone's mental state, like it has mine. (not saying it's all about me either)
but for the past few months has just been so bad because I feel like I always have to help someone, even though it's absolutely not my job, and I'm not their therapist. Which has made my own health come second to everyone elses.
so i'll be gone, i'll still be on discord and more active on pinterest, and I'm finally finding friends who i can uplift, but they can also uplift me. which I have never TRULY found before. in like the month (i think) i have known them they have genuinely made me so much happier, and better equipped to deal with my own shit.
sometimes I even found myself going on this app just because I knew it would trigger me so I could have an excuse. Which is obviously very bad. Because when I found myself doing okay, all that progress would immediately be thrown away once I opened this stupid app lmao.
anyways. bye-bye :) I might fully come back if,, this becomes a non-toxic place lmao, but at the rate it's going right now, it probably won't.
if anyone wants my discord or pinterest, it's on my strawpage, in my bio :P
