Mental health awareness

 So many post stuff about mental health awareness and how people should copy and paste it to alert others about mental health.  They say they know who will be there for them. You have people who say I will be there for you when it's bad yet they aren't there when it's good or bad. They make excuses of why they can't respond or why they can't ever call,text or see you first.  Raising awareness is not about spamming the internet about mental health.  Educate them by telling them your stories.  You don't have to go into everything.  Educate them on depression, anxiety,  narcissistic people, toxic people,  suicide, and the many different signs. Do videos, blog about your personal experiences with it, write a book,  show it in art, show it in poetry,  and the list can go on. Start support groups for different things.  Use your voice. You have a voice.  Stop saying you are always busy because you make time for family, friends, and partners.  One day they won't be there. Don't tell them get over it, they are crazy, lazy, won't amount to anything,  it's all in your head,  you deserve what you got, or any other negative things.  No one ever gets over it. They learn to cope and heal. They aren't crazy. They aren't lazy. It is hard to get out of bed and get motivated sometimes.  It's not all in our head. There are many types of abuse. Stop crossing boundaries and thinking you are always right and know what's best for family, friends , or partner.  You are only in control of you. Stop trying to control others.  No one deserves depression,  abuse of any form,PTSD,anxiety, or any mental health problems.  Every single person deserves people who listen,  understand them,  respect boundaries,  aren't toxic to them,  accepts, doesn't judge,  and loves them for them. Rather than copy and paste messages let's find new ways to share hope.

It's a way for me to express myself and just let all my emotions that I need to express out, and writing them down. It's a way to make me feel better without bottling it all up inside. It takes a load of my chest so I don't feel weighed down.     Freed From My Chains You don't point the finger at me like others tend to do. You let me try to figure it out for myself, because you know if you tell me what to do, I'll probably do the opposit

Stop giving the negative people attention

 Stop giving the negative people of the world so much attention.  Stop making negative people so famous for negative stuff. It's disgusting that the people who are doing horrible things are being given that attention. We as people see it in people's real lives and social media. Social media is where we need to start drawing the line. If we would take that attention away and ignored the bad behavior maybe just maybe they would see that it isn't good. People have turned negative into this is a social normal. It is not a social normal. Stop feeding the negative and toxic behavior. Stop saying it's normal.  I'd like to see more of you sharing people who are trying to succeed in life, build each other up, helping one another with small business or businesses, spreading love and light, helping people who are less fortunate, listening to others, being there for people who have depression, anxiety, PTSD,and much more.  So many could be successful if everyone supports everyo

Cursed House

  It's a dark stormy night this Halloween night. The clouds  are ominous.  You can feel the energy from the storm. 5 friends and me are staying in an abandoned house deep in the Bayou of Louisiana.  I had picked the place. My friends and I love spooky things. This year we are hoping for a good scare because last year we went to a cemetary and it was just a bunch of teenagers messing with us. We get to the abandoned house before it starts storming.  There is a fireplace in the living room and we light a fire to stay warm and cozy.  "Ari what is the plan?" my boyfriend asks. "I thought we would eat and check the house out after." My friends and I make sandwiches. We eat in the living room. While we are eating we hear kids laughing. We get up to see where it is coming from and find nothing.  It is  a big house you can get lost in because the house is made like a maze. "This house is strange," Joe says. "Did you know  it was made like a maze?&quo
