i never want to count things like this
</3
people from school probably think i have some serious physical illness i say i'm sick so much
The saddest part…is how many people believe the fake smile and the “I’m fine.” I mean, i’m a severely depressed person and a cutter, and someone actually told me that i am the most happy, care-free person that they’ve ever met.
If only they really looked at the so-called “smile” on my face…if only they knew what’s hidden by just long sleeves…
kmd: people only know what you tell them. theyre not psychich. if you dont tell them “hey guess what im not happy im depressed as fuck and I cut everyday” they wouldnt believe your fake smiles and your “im fines” and tell you youre the most happy perosn they ever met.
you cant blame people for being people.
I know that. I mean, usually you can tell if someone’s not truly okay, but that’s if you’re truly looking. Most people, when they ask how you are, are just looking for “i’m fine” or “i’m ok”. Plus i do try very hard to always look happy. Even though i want to hide how much pain i’m in, a small part of me just wants someone, anyone, to see that it’s only an act. But you’re right. People can’t read my mind. They know what they see. And what they see is a very happy girl who has it all together.
You can only tell if people are opening up enough to show to people they dont feel well. If you try your best to be happy it makes sense to me that they all think youre happy.
but I get where youre coming from. everyone wants to get noticed. but you cant get noticed without mentioning you feel like shit.
