HELP!! I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO EVEN DO ANYMORE!

Most people crave attention by lying to people, sadly it's common these days. That's exactly why I don't tell people I have anxiety because of the fact that most people lie about it to get attention, and they would think I'm trying to get attention. The truth is, it's just sad.

Same. I usually don't tell other people that I have depression because they'll assume that I'm a attention seeker. I also have anxiety (been like that since 2018), and believe me, it's torture.

It's worser with the fact that I have autism, because it means that I'm more prone to breakdowns and stuff like that

Yeah, especially when I got a B instead of a A when I study all night for a stupid test. (I'm not joking at all)

Holy mother of God, you have autism as well? I never knew that!

On the test part, I actually don't care about the grades. As my mum always says, grades aren't important until you have to take your final exams.

But you're 16, if I'm correct, so it must be diffrent for you.

It's different to me

I see.

Still, here's one thing. People stereotype autistic people to be retarded people who can't do anything except speak dribble language. That's wrong. You and I been functioning normally in public for years. (You also led a army of anti Tik Tokers to ban the app for good)

If stereotypes didn't exist, that would be great.

I know, right? But then, we wouldn't have shows like South Park who parody stereotypes and stuff like that.

Yeah

Lying about mental health isn't fun.... It hurts being like this... I don't get why people would lie about people dying or anything that brings pain to them in general

I know, right? People have lied about being depressed so much, that I stopped believing claims about being depressed.

I mean, I have depression myself, but I don't tell people about it because they'll assume that I'm lying for attention. Most of the time, I'm miserable and I just feel down. I tend to go on my tablet and Imgflip a lot, because there I feel like I can escape and express myself.

I also find it hard to feel emotions, because I just happen to be autistic, meaning that I find it hard to communicate with people. So yeah, that's a bummer.

That's so sad! I don't know what it's like to be autistic cause I'm not but ik the depressed part and it sucks!

Autism has its ups and downs at time. One moment, you're acting normal, and the next, you're either having a meltdown or even obsessive thoughts, which really suck.

Worse part is that I've had anxiety for years, so THAT increases the chance for a meltdown

That must suck... I couldn't imagine having cause I already have terrible highs but meltdowns randomly I couldn't handle

Lemme tell ya something I'm not lying when I say I hate tik tok. I know you do.

That's the point! I don't know what to believe in anymore!

A friend of mine on Imgflip, Malon, gained my trust in online friendship. Then I learnt that SHE LIED ABOUT BEING DEPRESSD AND GETTING F**KING RAPED!

That drained my trust from ANYONE, because they can be stupid liars who do that FOR ATTENTION!

When have I lied for attention?

I wasn't saying that YOU were, I was saying that most people do! Ok?

ok.

Well yes...but actually no. It gets really complicated trying to sort out the liars from the...truthers? I don't know what you would call it.
Anywho, I'm a very cynical person and always take some time to think through if someone is trustworthy. I have siblings that lie to me and depending on the question I will always assume they're lying (I'm usually right). I was in a relationship with a person who lied all the time (that's a whole other story that I won't be getting into ever).
I don't know why people are like that...well, actually it's because of their sin nature. It freaking sucks though. I wish I could just trust everyone but I know I can't.
