Friends Laughing at My Mental Health Struggles

I hate to say this and I'm only doing so because I've been in your shoes and after I finally realized what I had to do it absolutely helped immensely.... here it is.......... Those "FRIENDS" that laugh at you or tell you to get over it or turn your metal health issues into a competition are either masking their fear of what's wrong with them (no excuse to make you feel bad) or are just downright NOT a REAL friend. I've experienced both in my life and when I finally cut the certain ones loose I felt much better. I honestly only have 2 of what I consider true FRIENDS now. Quality is better than quantity when it comes to friends! I wish I would've learned that when I was younger. Now, family, that is a topic for another day lol. I am very biased when it comes to family not being true. Blood doesn't make you family. Maybe I'll talk more about that later. In short.... to the ones that make you feel bad about yourself, tell them jon from Ohio said to F*CK off and grow up. You are perfect the way you are and you don't need their's or anyone's stamp of approval! Keep your head up and keep smiling. If for nothing else just to make them wonder why YOUR happy

You deserve to be surrounded by people who love and accept you for who you are. I don’t really have any close friends but I prefer that over crappy friends.
