Depression: Don’t tell me you understand because you get sad sometimes.
Insomnia: Don’t tell me you’re an insomniac because you missed a few nights of sleep.
Eating Disorder: Don’t tell me you have an eating disorder because you missed a meal.
Bipolar: Don’t tell me you’re…I reblogged the post because it expressed the over-generalization of serious disorders which dwarfs the actual severity of the disorder. So many people claim they’re OCD because they like things neat, for example, that when someone says they actually have OCD, people assume they’re just exaggerating.
Same thing with people saying “I’m depressed” when they really mean “I’m in a bad mood”.
I don’t think the purpose of the post is, at all, to bash people who attempt to help others with mental disorders by attempting to relate.
Sorry, I didn’t mean to be so harsh. The top one on the list got to me. Depression runs in my family, and I just keep hearing depressed people rant about the people in their lives trying to help them and sometimes it makes me want to scream.

Self harm: Don’t tell me you understand because you once skinned your knee to get out of sport.

Just don’t.
I understand mental disorders are beyond hard, but can we please be kinder to the people who love those that suffering from them.
It seems half the posts I see talking about these issues are telling people “you love me and try to comfort me the wrong way”.
Loving someone who is sick, mentally or physically is very hard and a little understanding could would be appreciated.
