Mental health

Honestly I am so sick of this attack on anyone that calls out mental illness. I refuse to be silent and I refuse to allow others to tell me what they think I should say. I have suffered for many years with mental illness. It’s not my fault y’all want to continue allowing ppl to step on you because you refuse to call it out for what it is. A turd is still a turd no matter how pretty you dress it up. You talk about compassion, you speak about being kind well allowing a mentally ill person to not get help for their delusion isn’t compassionate at all. You are part of the problem you are the reason many won’t seek the help they need. Afraid you might offend someone at least be honest with yourself. This isn’t about helping it’s about being afraid of what others will label you. Well I tell you as I sit here writing this you can call me whatever you like. I refuse to allow anyone to put me in a box or label on me. I am not afraid because God has my back. The fact that y’all can’t even call a mental illness for what is it makes me know for a fact y’all are on the wrong side of history. There is nothing wrong with being sick it’s about getting help and finding ways to deal with life in a healthy way. If you can’t speak that truth you are completely in the darkness and there is no helping you. Not because you can’t get help but because you have chosen to stay in the darkness. ~Emma~

Which aspects do you think makes a person unique?

Their soul, and I know some might think well you can’t see someone soul. But I disagree with that you see some ppl shine completely different when they have a beautiful soul. It shines on the outside and you can clearly see it. In the way they do things, the way they speak you see something you cannot describe that makes them outstanding.

What makes you laugh?

I absolutely love dad jokes they are so corny but they make me laugh. Also kids when they are young like toddlers and repeating every thing their parents say absolutely priceless. =)

Silence

It’s always annoying when you can’t speak your mind without being attacked. People say they want truth. People say they want honesty. But the truth is people don’t want the truth they want lies that make them feel better. But hey I am the crazy one so don’t listen to anything I say because again I am the crazy one. ~Emma~

Today

May this day bring you wonderful new blessings. May this day be blessed with paths that will help you to grow. And may this be the day you find the strength to know you are worth it. ~Emma~

What’s something most people don’t understand?

What it is like living with a mental disorder. People are under the impression it’s something you can just snap out of. They don’t understand the battle that you have to face daily to keep your sanity.

Posted a new video on YouTube

So I posted a video on YouTube and I want to make sure that I am extremely clear. This isn’t about hate this isn’t about anything other than mental health issues. I hope everyone seeks help. I am just highlighting the fact that changing the definition or changing the meaning doesn’t change the outcome. It doesn’t help to continue perpetrating your own narrative to fit in your box. People need to know to get help for any mental disorder. By changing reality you are not helping the situation, you are making it worse. Please I ask on behalf of the mental health community that we all stop allowing for this narrative to continue. It will only harm the community it keeps “saying” it is trying to save.

Live each moment

So many times we get struck in the wheel of life. Get up each morning, take a shower, go to work, eat dinner, spend time with the fam, go to sleep and repeat the next day. It is those times we forget easily that each moment in our life is precious. We aren’t promised tomorrow. So tonight I hope you kiss your love ones and remember today might be your last. So embrace the beauty, the little moments, the time you spend laughing and enjoying time with your loved ones. Each moment embrace with love and live each moment like your last. Have a beautiful night and a blessed week. ~Emma~
