Everyone has different views on what "positive" is. Black people are evolved to have low IQ levels. They also lack impulse control and are genetically prone to high self esteem, which is where their self-entitlement come from. With the values I was raised with, I wouldn't consider their course of evolution positive.

People who take one side of this argument are always Sociologists, or they're generally just people who focus on ideology rather than science. People who take the other side are real scientists who specialize in genetics and biology. The media is written by people who, like the first group I described, specialize in writing, rhetoric, or ideology. Who do you think they're going to side with when writing an article? IQ is about 70% genetic. Look up twin studies. When you do research, make sure the person conducting the study is a real scientist and not a sociologist. Genes also determine major aspects of your personality. If you were raised in another country, you would still be the same person, because it's engraved in your DNA. You would act and think differently based on culture.

Well there's some Richard Dawkins if you want reading material. Other than that, there's sources on Science Direct.

>> No.8000479 [DELETED]

But anon, without getting into race, don't you know that iq testing is generally inaccurate and inconclusive? Many recent studies have indicated that you could take 5 different acreddited iq tests and get a different result each time. While it was previously the only way to measure one's level of intelligence, these studies have proven its impossible to accurately measure a persons level of intelligence based off an iq test. I can cite the studies of you want, I'm currently on my phone but I'd be more than happy to oblige upon request. Just trying to help out since iqs are now seen as irrelevant.

It's true that tumblr culture is like a rebellion thing but I feel like its more harmful than being a weeaboo or getting tats and shaving your head to piss off daddy. These kids are actually pretending to be sick to get out on meds and making up genders and sexualities that cause them to get beat up and kicked out or put on hormones when they're just making this shit up for attention. It makes it harder for people who are really trans or really have conditions to be taken seriously. And then they're basically brainwashed into believing social justice issues that arent even there. Theres a privledge test going around tumblr and no matter how fucked up your life is, if you're white or male you automatically are privledged scum. I really despise tumblr culture when I think about how fucked up some of these kids are gonna be when they're adults. Special snowflake syndrome tumblr edition is dangerous and needs to be stopped

A person might get a different score when taking the same test on different days, but the results generally correlate, and the scores tend to agree with one another and across time. That's why they have a standard error of measurement for these kinds of tests.

However that's not the case. Not every accredited iq test is the same test, most of them have varying subjects. You would have to take an average of several iq tests to get a somewhat accurate answer, it doesn't have much to do with the day.
Since no one can agree on which test should be the official test, it's lead to a lot of confusion and thus denoting an iq test as a means of observing intelligence. You could easily get a 140 on one test and 112 on another.

There's some adults on there, but the vast majority falls within the 13-17 age bracket. When I was that age, there was the whole "scene kid" thing, and pretending to be depressed, or being "totally schizo, lol". Teenagers love to feel that they're somehow not part of the system, and all these labels are just another way to do it. I'm fairly certain that most of these will grow out of it by the time they are adults, and either go on to actually contribute something useful, or just never speak of it again.

I've heard of people who believe in reincarnation and believe they have a close tie to their previous life's animal or that they have a spirit animal that like guides them through meditation before all this otherkin stuff started. But how can you believe that you are/were a fictional character or mythical beast. How can you believe that others are going to believe you when you say you're a fairykin or some shit. I've been reading up on it and a lot of teens consider it their religion. This isn't any different than those teens who practiced Wicca or worshiped Satan for like one year when we were in school.

Back in my day (early 2000's) teens claimed to be bipolar and have other various mental illnesses to seem edgy, but tumblr seems to have it worse than what it used to be. What I mean is that back when internet wasn't as popular, you'd probably wander off to some crazy small group and adapt to their crazy customs, but with tumblr you're talking about a huge, international community that acts a lot like a cult. The Tumblr community guilt trips and shames people, especially self-aware teenagers, into thinking what they want them to, and encourages them to be as bigoted, close-minded and aggressive as possible. We used to have "that one militant vegan animal rights protester" in our classes but in the olden days before the Internet and huge international communities they didn't have an effective way to connect and feed each other's habits and eventually grew out of it. Tumblr makes post sharing insanely easy and fast, which is largely the reason to its success, so it makes easier for anyone to "spread their message", especially by guilt tripping and shaming. I.e. "If you don't reblog this you're a racist piece of shit".

Another thing is that due to them indulging themselves into the blissful community, their perception of reality is becoming warped. An average tumblr user doesn't have a lot of social connections outside of their circles because the community enables them to stay online all day long and stay inside their comfort zone. So they start actually thinking that trans* people and other minorities are actually a huge audience and get regularly killed and beaten up. Because the community is so aggressive and, as a said, acts like a cult, it uses fear and guilt to persuade people to accept their way. Soon anyone starts hating the 99% and seeing them as something worse than Hitler fused with Stalin and adapts themselves to be a part of the "oppressed minority".

cont.

Because a white teenager can't really bullshit people into thinking they're a PoC they'll go for the next best thing, i.e. trans*. Most young girls using Tumblr have some kind of self-image issues and possibly aren't very comfortable with their feminine side. So they can start claiming gender-neutral or male pronouns, dress up as a male and get a free pass to being victimized by misgendering. They advocate for trans rights yet they have never spoken with a licensed doctor (because Tumblr doesn't believe in medical science, another trait of cult behavior), post-op trans people or educated themselves on the subject anywhere outside of Tumblr.

So when we compare Tumblr to other fads of the past it isn't as much of a "I'm cutting while listening to Nirvana" rebellious phase but a cult mentality. Even adults, people well into their 20's, fall victim to the community. The desire to be trans* or anything other doesn't come from the need to have attention and to be edgy, but to redeem their position as a good human being. This is exactly how cults work. Because Tumblr is on all the time they don't have to grow out of it and learn about the actual world around them.

In before "not all of Tumblr is like this", I know it's not. I'm a Tumblr user, but I acknowledge that Tumblr has played a big part in justifying this kind of behavior.

My main beef with tumblr is that many people delude themselves into thinking that tumblr is some sort of "safe space", when people regularly get bullied and spammed with anonymous death threats until they delete their blogs for one single shitty text post. Some of these kids have good intentions, but the way they go about it is just extremely poor, and actually hurts the movements they claim to support because people immediately associate them with tumblr sjw. It's a shame, really, because it has gone from teens expressing their feelings to pseudo-activism and badly informed posts that spread like wildfire because no one bothers to check the sources. I'm not sure I'd go as far as calling it a cult, but I definitely agree that the mentality can take a negative toll on people. My best friend even started questioning her gender and basically fell over her feet trying to be politically correct, to the point where it was impossible to actually discuss social issues with her, and we're both in our 20s.

I like a lot of popular "Tumblr aesthtics", actually. I like to shit-talk most of them, but I don't actually hate them.
I like cyberghetto/soft ghetto/etc because it adds cuteness and femininity to something considered masculine and "hard". It's pretty without being weak.
Also, I find it weird that all the complaints about it have little to do with the actual look (which I could understand, it's basically repetitive "meme fashion" at this point with the same bullshit Adidas logo and tattoo chokers on everything, even though it originally started to make fun of that sort of thing) and everything to do with the fact that some people just hate black people and anything to do with them.

Exactly. What Tumblr SJWs are doing isn't constructive or helpful, it's downright destructive and encourages negative and aggressive emotions and actions. They firmly believe that two wrongs make a right and discrimination and bullying towards people with different views is helpful to the society. They don't see the opposing side as people with real feelings and emotions, they only see them as heathens who need to be destroyed. Converting isn't enough, they have to be completely removed from existence so they don't have to face things that make them uncomfortable. It's feeling more and more like a religion or a very extremist political movement, which aren't that far apart actually.

The worst thing is that I see posts circulating in Tumblr claiming that "joining Tumblr made me a lot more open-minded and accepting" when in reality they've become more extremist and shallow-minded in their views, refusing to see the big picture or understand the other side without projecting straw men to their arguments. The source-checking is another thing. Someone can make a really bullshit "fact" in Tumblr to troll SJWs or compose a vendetta and it spread like wildfire without anyone bothering to check the facts or sources.

The other thing is that they're not really running for human rights. They only care about their own self-importance and making them feel good about themselves. Think about a corrupt, fundamentalist priest for a second. They condemn everyone they can about every single thing they do to rise above their level and enjoy the feeling of superiority, not to save their souls from hell. It's the same pattern.

At first this sounds really racist and taboo, but actually a recruiter was talking about this in a thread I read recently. In a very traditional black culture acting professional is considered "acting white" and it's discouraged, because it's seen as abandoning your roots and self-hating. The PoC candidates who acted professional in their job told about being shunned in by their peers for this reason.

I live in an area that has a lot of African immigrates (in Europe) and from what I've seen and heard, their parents get pissed off if their children want to adapt to the western culture. There are numerous stories about girls not wearing a veil and falling in love with native boys and being punished for it. In the worst case they get sent back to their home country to "learn about their roots". In other words, be circumcised and forcefully married to an older man from their culture. I'm aware that this doesn't apply to every African immigrate ever but it doesn't mean it should be ignored. Minorities need to take responsibility for integrating as well just as much as the majority needs to welcome them.

The only difference is that the pastel goth part is aiming more for a black/pastel color theme, whatever that may include. And then I think creepy cute is aiming for gruesome accessories (eyeball hair clips, drippy blood...) mixed with cute-pastel style, which often looks like it's crossed over with pastel goth because of the whole... pastel color theme and dark-edgy aesthetic.

The thing is middle schoolers have always been like that though. Like back when I was in middle school I had friends who were expire mending with gender identity and sexuality. Which I feel is perfectly normal for that age but when I was in middle school that was done in private or done like on LJ. Out of all those people like one was still bi and another was a lesbian by the time we all hit 16. The mental illness ones were all over it by the same time except for one girl, who was actually mentally ill. I fell into the category of being depressed and keeping that private as did another good friend of mine even though one of her jokes got blown out of proportion and she was put on suicide watch.

I think what the issue with tumblr is that they have found like minded individuals and at this point they encourage each other to be that way rather then seeking help.

Ultimately I blame parents who tell their kids their special and unique while they are growing up. The kids just believe that at face value and develop no skills or qualities that make that am true so when they hit like 14 they get desperate for something to prove that they are. And that manifests itself in tumblr culture. Back in my day it was kids who shopped at hottopic and quote keychain a from Spencer's.

At cons, I try to be nice, because maybe they just legitimately enjoy the fashion; some of it's cute when it's not all thrown into one outfit, but the second I hear you talking about your fringe sexuality, or the patriarchy, or any of that fauxcial justice bullshit, I dip the fuck out.

I don't think these people ever learned how to separate an artist from their work.

I'm going to be the face of their business, and living in the conservative Deep South, people will avoid a place if they see someone like me working there, regardless of how well I do my job.

The funny thing is the shirt read "shota", as in "shotaro" (which means "boy" in Japanese), not "shotacon". If the shirt read "loli", it would be a fair assumption because of the origin of "lolicon" (aka "Lolita complex"), but it's different in the case of "shota". The fact that they automatically thought of pedophilic cartoon pornography instead of the actual word reflects on them.

Yep, protecting fictional children isn't actually helping real children. But it being "drawings intended for people with sexual disabilities" I'd have to kinda disagree with you there, as a lot of people drawing and viewing those things just happen to find the anime style used appealing and have no interest in actual children. Though that's not to say someone with an interest in actual children won't find those drawings appealing as well.

I grew out of that really quickly and then slowly let go of the rest of my chuunibyou phase by 14ish, but it seems these tumblr kids (and some adults sadly) aren't doing the same? Like a lot of this embarrassing stuff used to be in self-contained forums and lj communities, but tumblr is such a big enabling hugbox it's instilled some weird self-importance into these people.

I think it's completely normal to be like that still when you're in middle school, like you said it's "chuunibyou" and part of searching for yourself. Sure it makes you embarrassed to remember those times years after but you can just say you were a dumb teenager. I remember lot of my cosplay friends having some kind of "I'm a yaoi boy" phase when we were 13-14 years old, they grew out of it though and are completely normal now.

This, you're an extension of your company and they have every right to pick people who will support their company best.
My aunt has dreadlocks, tattoos and ear gauges but she covers them all up (except the dreadlocks) when she goes to work and she even works in the government where there's no pressure to look a certain way.
Honestly if you need your clothes and fried hair to express your personality so fucking badly that you can't cover it up, you must be really boring.

I have nothing against people who wear weird things but if they do it despite being told no because "dis is hu I rly AM, moooom!", I'll see them as immature retards who can't discern between work and home.

Once upon a time your real life friends and family and generally maturing helped you realize those delusions are dumb and crippling in the real world.

I know a girl who's 20 and has the special snowflake stuff going on. I think in her case it's a result of her being a few years behind as far as social maturity goes. She was born legally blind and her parents were very overprotective so it seems like she wasn't really allowed to date, watch pg-13+ movies, etc. at the ages most people were and she's going through that chuunibyou phase later in life because of that.

Anon have you ever worked a day in your life? Whenever you get a job, you conform to whatever standards the company you're working for wants you to. That is because you, as an employee, are an acting face of that company. So if they're trying to go for a professional, mature vibe then you better bet you're hiding your tats and dying your hair a normal color. Or maybe you luck out and get a job somewhere where green hair and snakebites on your face is accepted. But ultimately, it's not about you and what a *special* individual you are. You're there to do your job and be part of a team. What makes you an individual should not be how you look, but how you tackle problems and what you bring to the table as a worker.

We don't live in a world where no one cares how you look, and if you're old enough to be on this board then you're old enough to understand this.

The thing is, Tumblr is on such a 'save the nonexistent, fictional children' rampage and its weird as fuck because for all of their bitching and moaning, they don't put half as much effort into helping real children and I just don't understand it. Just the other day, I saw a post with a few thousand notes saying 'Its extremely problematic how sexualized young girls are in anime and if you honestly think its okay, then you're a pedophile in the making' or some shit. These are not real people who can be victims of anything, nor can they actually form an opinion on if they want it or not because, duh, they don't have any feelings or thoughts so as far as I'm concerned its a moot point.

I really feel like actual pedophiles are too real for Tumblr to handle so they latch onto fighting for something that doesn't actually exist so they feel like they have some semblance of control over the situation, that they can turn off the computer and sleep easy knowing that those things they're fighting against aren't actually happening. I dunno', I browse Tumblr frequently and there are a few people I like but overall I hate the culture they've created for themselves and the thing too is that they literally just copy everyone else. Half of their most popular memes are from 4chan and they took the doxing idea from /b/, except they didn't take any of their common sense with it. When someone posts on /b/ asking for them to dox a person they have beef with, half the time they're met with '/b/ isn't your personal army, fag' but on Tumblr they're just blindly going for it without looking to see if the accusations are even true and they're ruining lives over stupid bullshit. At least when /b/ attacks its usually for a good reason and its sad to say they have more sense than Tumblr but at this point I believe it.

I disagree with you there.
Pretty much all the people I've seen get doxxed by Tumblr users had it coming in some way or the other, usually by being racist pricks or literally sending people racist, hateful messages and thinking they'd get away with it. They aren't exactly "innocent".
The only exception I can think of is that 12 year old boy on Twitter who said something that might have been sexist, but all they had was his name and face and he didn't care at all.
Not only that, but 4chan does the same thing all the time, sometimes not even because the person disagreed with what you call the "hive mind". This sort of thing is all over the internet.

That I can understand, though I've never seen the person's actual workplace get death threats. In fact, it's quite the opposite. They literally word things as politely as possible, show screencaps of whatever the person said and encourage the workplace to "deal with" their employee with stuff like "I certainly hope your company does not advocate or share these opinions". Also
>stooping to their level
If someone is degrading and/or advocating genocide against an entire human populace, literally who cares if they get fired, yelled at by their parents, delivered some pizzas or expelled from their uni? The fact that bad things happen to them after it's "out" to their workplace or family that they're shitty people should teach them a lesson, in fact.
If someone says "Kill all black people" and a bunch of black people tell that person's school or workplace about it, how is it the same thing as wanting to kill all white people?

Black List

Imperative to tag:

Needles (especially syringes/medical needles) as #needle or #syringe (#trypanophobia tw works too); this tag goes for pictures as well as mentions in the context of medicine and doctors. I’m okay with tattoos and piercings unless it’s really graphic.
Doctors or medical related stuff as #doctor or #medical; this is more in the case of conversations about the medical field and “obesity” related stuff (e.g. BMI or “weight related diseases”).
Weight and body image related stuff, especially when using “fat” or talking about bullying and fat shaming as #weight or #body image.
ANYTHING about #thinspo or #fitspo or #fitness. In fact, don’t even follow if you post thinspo or are in any way pro-ana or pro-mia. Fuck you.
Guro or any sort of sexualized gore as #guro. Heavy gore and torture porn type things fall under this category.
Guilt mentions or triggers as #guilt tw; this one is really specific and I won’t get on to people if they don’t know how to tag, some guidelines are if it is related to grief and guilt over the death of a loved one, definitely tag.

Not imperative, just annoying:

Diabolik Lovers anime/vn fandom stuff as #diabolik lovers
Christianity related stuff as #christianity; this is more for mentions than imagery.

This is why I'm embarrassed to share the fact I identify as otherkin. I don't really believe in all that new age or occult stuff, however. I think more than a spiritual thing it could also be linked to DID, sensory processing disorders, phantom limb syndrome, dyslexia and/or autism. Temple Grandin writes alot about similarites between animal behavior/cognition and the autistic mind. Animals, like dyslexics, are visual thinkers. I just happen to identify as a small subspecies of wolf which just happens to be the most stereotypical, romanticized, fanciful kin type besides the fantasy shit. Can't really blame people for assuming I jumped on the 'werewolf' bandwagon. The brain cooks up some interesting and convincing experiences.

As someone with legit , diagnosed BPD, they can go fuck themselves. It isn't a cute, quirky mental illness that you can use to be a dick. As a matter of fact, I tell people it's perfectly fine to cut off their friendship with me if it just gets too intense for them. (I'm unmedicated.) Every time I see those posts saying shit like, "Don't be mean to BPD sufferers when they're being clingy/attention whorey; they NEED to be showered in praise," posts, I want to pull out my teeth. If I'm being too much, fucking tell me. Don't enable me because, "Oh, it's just who you are." I am not my illness, so don't let me get away with shit just because I'm sick.

BPD makes you such a bad person, I don't understand why they glorify it so much. I manipulate people without a single thought, lie, steal from family, and am generally an all around shit human being, and even when I recognise it, I can't bring myself to care, because that's just the nature of this disease. I'd give anything to not have this illness, because I know it's going to kill me, and here these kids are, bragging about it.

What >>8001783 said: while it might well be the case that you have BPD or some sort of other issue, the kind of behaviours we're talking about are on a whole other scale.

Example I'll throw at you: I pulled a knife on an ex-partner and demanded he break up with his new gf, spun it that it was self defense to mutual friends, manipulated him into staying friends with me through guilt trips and threats of suicide. This is pretty much the level of awfulness I exhibit on a daily basis.

God, this. I don't have BPD, but I have diagnosed social anxiety, and recently started medication. I cringe internally when I see posts actually encouraging destructive behaviors like staying in bed all day, not picking up the phone, or completely avoiding any situation that might make you anxious in general. It's really crippling and will hold you back so much in the long run if you never take risks.

I stole about a hundred dollars out of a friend's mother's purse while everyone was asleep when I was younger, and I just got 75 dollars from my mother by telling her I was going to use it for her Christmas present, then used it to buy shit for myself, and that's minor stuff that I've done dozens of times over. Not trying to out-edge you, but what you just posted is, in my opinion, typical teenage shit. Most kids ask for twenty dollars for lunch money or whatever, then use it for something completely unrelated, and plenty of teens shoplift small stuff like makeup or whatever. I don't want it to sound like I think what I do is okay, because it it obviously isn't, and I objectively know this, but my mind doesn't recognise or even care that some of the stuff I've done could easily land me in prison. I think your reaction, if you weren't trolling, is why so many people on Tumblr self-diagnose as being BPD.

dude i "self-diagnosed" (aka reading a shit ton online, getting my parents and myself to make lists of things like mood habits/appetite/activity levels etc, sitting on it for a while thinking before going to my doctor and getting referred to a mental health place so they can hopefully diagnose me, or at least give me an answer) my probable cyclothymia, and when i vented about it on tumblr, i had people saying they MUST be bipolar too because they get kinda sad then kinda happy sometimes. mmmmm oppression points.

like no talk to me when you go from being fucking ecstatic and churning out cosplays/art/ideas like no-ones business, eating very little food cus OH MY GOD TOO MUCH STUFF TO DO I DONT NEED THAT LOL, being unable to think properly, staying up for 24+ hours at a time with no ill effects, etc to ungodly angry on a hair trigger but still pretty high, to crashing between high and low and angry, to utterly depressed, anxious and unable to get out of bed without wanting to die, hating everything i've ever made (even so far as to destroying them - luckily the last victim was only some false nails. I have actually thrown everything out of my room from games consoles to pillows into the storage room because i "didnt deserve it for being a fucked up, shitty cripple child" before realising what i'd done and getting depressed-angry and on the verge of self-harm until my parents came home)

but guess what, even though i go through so much shit with my mood, I'm still not going to say i AM bipolar or have a mood disorder, because i'm not a fucking doctor.

coupled with a list of behaviours implies they were self diagnosing.

Incidentally, I don't actually have beef with self diagnosing, when done properly. Everyone self diagnoses: got a runny nose, fever and swollen glands? Congrats, you've just self diagnosed as having a cold. Is your femur sticking out of your leg? Well done, you have diagnosed yourself with having a broken leg. What do you do? You go to a doctor, you list your symptoms, and then they give you a diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

My point is that self diagnosis is meant to be something you do prior to seeking professional help. The problem with tumblr self diagnosis culture is that it misses out the second step, and you end up with people running round claiming illnesses thy may or may not have.

There are two shitty things that come from this: firstly, that there is a chance there is something wrong with them (potentially something entirely different and worse) and they aren't getting any help to get better; secondly, that people misunderstand what self diagnosing is for and are hence scared of doing it, and end up not getting treatment for something that could be really serious.

Can someone explain something to me about tumblr? I always see all these posts about *muh anxiety* and practically daily posts about anxiety attacks or panic attacks and it just comes off like they claim those things so everyone has to be nice to them or those attacks make them special. And I've gone to school with people who act like that, having fake bitch "anxiety" and I'd never actually seen any of them have an attack, it's more like they're feelings get hurt or they're embarassed and they call it an attack.

And it just really pisses me off, as someone who's strugled with anxiety most of their life. Like, I don't want anyone to know about that shit why would you broadcast it? It's nothing to brag about, it doesn't make you feel special, it's a horrible terrible feeling and you don't want anyone to know about it really. And then I see posts about shit like "oh compliment them, call them a starry galaxy when they're having an attack." No fuck you if I'm having an attack you better gtfo and leave me alone until I say otherwise. Some of the lowest points in my life are what I feel when I have an anxiety attack, and the aftermath just leaves you feeling like a piece of shit. And these kids practically glorify it, using panic attacks and shit as a way to get attention and a reason for you to treat them with kids gloves. How the hell is this such a common thing on tumblr?

You can not "subvert" cuteness, you can just pretend you are cute and act like a bitch but you will be remembered only for being a bitch. That is just how it works.

When I had my first one I flt like I was having a heart attack. My sergeant sent me to the med clinic and they took me to the back with a quickness. I remember my body tightening up, like rigor mortis almost. Then it felt like I wasn't really there, like I was just sitting inside my own head watching, it was very hard to ocus on any one thing. I remember them putting the iv in and it not really hurting, and the doctor over me, don't remember what he said other than I'ts alright, just breathe'. He pulled my fingers and they just scrunched back. After a while I kind of got my focus back but I still couldn't move. I remember getting my uniform back on with bent fingers, I couldn't really move them so it was hard. They took me to the hospital and hooked me up to a couple ivs, did some monitors etc. My sergeant came to visit and it was weird, I could see worry in his eyes, I'd never seen that before, not from him. The doctors told me I was fine, and I got sent back in a bread truck sent from base. Walked in the office and told them "They said it was just a panic attack". They all looked confused. I slept the rest of the day. It all went downhill fast from there, but honestly the army isn't very good when it comes to mental health, so I don't really blame anyone. Anyways I'm a civilian now and honestly, seeing some of these ~anxiety~ ~triggers~ posts on tumblr just pisses me off. I lost my job and a family that was closer to me than my real family and they want to complain about how its so ~hard being them~. ugh.

I only talk about panic attacks AFTER I had them. Like do people just causally get panic attacks and can type it out as it's happening? Because I fucking can't. Usually I'm on the floor twisting and profusely sweating until my mom comes upstairs with a glass of water and a xanax to bring me down. I get both psychologically and physically induced panic attacks. I have more the latter due to my autonomic nervous system being out of whack and pumping random amounts of adrenaline into my system. I'll just be eating a grilled cheese and BAM I'm on the ground screaming with drool poring out the sides of my mouth.

That's because most mental illnesses are normal behaviors that are just taken to the extreme. It's normal to be sad or unmotivated for example, but if it goes on for months and you are literally barely able to drag yourself out of bed, it's a problem. Similar to how overeating is not the same as having binge eating disorder. It tips when it starts to take a toll on your quality of life or your health.

>recovery is a social construct

Fuck no it's not. Recovery is about focusing on accepting yourself and enjoying your life, despite your mental illness. About improving the quality of life.
It's like this: I'm autistic and will never understand social relationships, I also have panic attacks. Therefore recovery is learning what causes the panic attacks and approaching them in a safe way to prove to myself that whatever it is will not actually hurt me. I recently got reprimanded at work and my boss, who knows about my recovery efforts, was cool enough to reprimand me in a normal way even though there were tears streaming down my face and I was physically shaking. He didn't make any concessions for me, other than let me close my office door and calm down a bit. This helps me learn that a boss won't physically hurt me, furthering my recovery.

Another kind of recovery project I did was tackle my phobia of hearing people eat. I had horrible panic attacks from the sound of eating and couldn't get away from it, so my therapist assigned me the task of making noise while I ate (alone) I still hate the sound and it makes me extremely uncomfortable, but I can sit on a buss next to a kid eating a sucker loudly and not panic.

Af fag here, also with anxiety and a bunch of other issues. How long did your medical board go? I've been waiting over a year now because of all the hospitalizations. Still no final out date, but I'm getting a full evaluation board because of 2+ years of service and it being aggravated severely by service.

My first serious episode, I completely dissociated and cut my arms, legs, shoulders and rib cage with scissors. This happened on a Sunday at work. As soon as I realized what was happening, I checked myself into the psych ward.

Nowadays panic attacks and dissociation aren't really a big deal because I have them frequently. I just go to the bathroom and sob quietly. Thankfully (though annoyingly) my business is also my chain of command's business, so my supervisor knows to ignore the panic attacks now.

Even an "are you okay?" Can send me spiraling back out of reality and further into a panic attack. Ice helps me stay grounded, so if my supervisor feels the need to do SOMETHING about it, he'll put an ice pack on my desk.

They just gave me an honorable and swept me out. My papers are blank tbh. No listed reason as to why I was discharged or anything. Just my time in service. Weirdest shit.
When I first got out I was too proud to go to the va, now I'm pretty sure its too late and there isnt any record of me ever having been to a hospital or mental health center.
I'm not sure how the af will handle your discharge, but the army took about two months to get past everything. A few of my buddies ended up about a year because of hospital in/out shenanigans.
Your command is good people. Mine was cool for the first attack and just..abandoned me really after that. I told one sergeant I trusted how I felt and they sent me to a psych ward. Didn't hear from them for a week and when I got back to base they just handed me a discharge packet and told me to walk across the base for all my signatures...Pretty sure they told the others not to talk to me too, no one wanted to talk to me after that other than the 5 of us getting kicked out. It was actually kind of funny, 3 of us were in a dnd group, the whole group all ended up getting kicked for some issue or another.

the fact that the gap between "sweethearts" and "against" is smaller than the gap between "against" and "society" bugs me so much

I have anxiety and I am pretty much that girl you described
It takes a lot of effort for me to put on a front of confidence but it's something I've practised and know is necessary for my future
Sometimes I can't even look people in the eye or talk to them, sometimes I hide in my room all day but other times I work night shifts in a bar or run training days
You gotta do what you gotta do

'Beta girl' isn't included in the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10) or the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) and is a non-specific term largely associated with internet, particularly 4-chan culture.

Hope that answer was autistic (also in the : DSM-5) enough for you.

Emo fashion is such an incredible turn-on for me. I love the close-fitting black clothes and fluffy, straight dark hair. I'm sad I missed out -- no one dresses like that anymore.

There's still people who dress like that. I knew some kids that dropped out and got addicted to drugs who still dress like that

Yeah, I used to go to a psychologist and I had to stop because It was too much money being spent on me... It was $100 once a week, and I didn't want to be a burden to my family who I knew could easily afford it. I wasn't worth anywhere near that money. Plus family didn't understand anyway. After they attended a few meets (which I always fucking hated- I don't like opening up to people at all really. I don't connect with people well, and at the time I was unsure about my feelings for my family), I finally figured that I was able to open up to them (I'd kind of shut off my trust for my family at a young age, and I never talked to them about anything that distressed me in the past). It was barely any time before my mom told me that I was just making excuses and using my mental state as a crutch.
That experience combined with the money thing made me tell my counselor that I was stopping temporarily- I was too nervous to tell her that I was leaving for good.

Sorry, that turned out to be kind of a long post.

tl;dr Going to the psychologists ends up being more trouble than it's worth

I wish it wasn't trendy for tumblr to just spit that shit out, because it's not fun at all in real life.

I follow someone who (at least she posted it on her FurAffinity account, I don't think she put it on her actual tumblr blog yet) came out as 'oni-kin'/'space-kin'. Like, how the FUCK do these people think they'll be taken seriously anywhere outside of the ~progressive~ circles of tumblr?

She also tends to overuse the 'uwu/uvu' emoticons like these passive-aggressive kawaii bloggers seem to tend to do, but that just might be me picking things apart.

I'm not fond of Plebcomics either, but I'm not sure if she really posted her work info online. Once they get a hold on your real name, finding out where you work is not that difficult.
