I just saw this on my dash and unfollowed the person who posted it which is shame because they post quality things when they aren’t hating on the first world, posting anit-government graphics or offensive Atheistic slander.
My first thought was…seriously? What a way to start your year. Then my second thought was, screw this. That is incredibly depressing and if you want to believe that then I’m not letting you anywhere near my life.
I’m not stupid and I realise people find themselves in awful situations - or worse, trapped in them - but why convince yourself that your year is going to be a bad one? Why not believe it will get better; that you’ll find your sanctuary in the chaos or better yet get out of it altogether? And, furthermore, why not intend on doing something about it instead of feeling sorry for yourself!? Assuming that you don’t want your year to be fucked up then the first thing you have to change is yourself.
Over 7,000 notes? Over 7000 people (obviously a lot more) are going into this year actively and publicly speaking this shit over their lives? Part of me wants to feel bad for you but right now I’m mostly just angry at the apathy I see. No wonder “depression” is such a huge issue in our society when people perpetuate the myth with stuff like this. Depression, unless brought on by a mental illness, is a state of mind. Choose a better one. Choose a better year.
