They compare metal illnesses with the likes of Vincent Van Gogh . As though some kind of coat of arms for mad-genius. They just wanna attract attention just because it's cool.

I want to throatpunch everyone who ever said autism is just "something everyone wants to be, because it's such an 'elite' disorder to have."
Yes,I hear it often from so-called mental health workers. Autism is just so cool, everybody wants it. Granted, I fucking love my autistic brain, but there is literally no aspect of my life that isn't made harder by other people in retaliation for me being "different".
I find the fact that mental health workers "rank" disorders according to "coolness" and "popularity" really disturbing. Also, they're all idiots. That's also disturbing.

The media isn't exactly known for realism in any subject...

I suppose this goes hand in hand with recent raising 'awareness' of mh issues and 'equality'. Both are insufficient. If people are only informed on a casual basis then they pick up only a surface understanding. They don't 'get' the full horror in the same way as they don't 'get' suicide. They don't want to. It raises too many question marks over the education system, the medical system, the media, our society in general. No individual can change that.
So most people don't think too hard. They don't want all that struggle in their own lives. And some will live vicariously, dipping into the 'mad-genius' concept; van gogh, kurt cobain, sylvia plath, robin williams, with this surface understanding. A single MH episode can be viewed as rebellious and edgy. Its no surprise that many artists struggle with mental health and are 'successful' outsiders when success is measured in capitalist terms only.
If mental health awareness is leading youngsters to an mh issue 'tribe' is that any different from all the other tribes ever? Even if some are imposters, others will find support and help. Is the 'identity' that brings good or bad? Impossible to generalise I suppose. Generalising is always the wrong way to go.

That i wasn't prepared for. Do people seriously get that low? At this point i'm reconsidering CTB to go on a crusade to cleanse humanity. Anyone coming?
