Why I'm not Ashamed

If you haven't seen the hash-tag "I'm not Ashamed", Check this profile out.

Instead of hiding away from a mental health illness, a twitter user has decided it is time to stand up. To allow us to come together instead of hiding our illness. To turn around to the world and announce "Yes, I have a mental illness...

...And I am not Ashamed".

Whilst many are lucky and have a good supportive structure around them, some have to deal with small minded comments. Sure they may have good intentions, but people that have never experienced mental health won't be able to understand how frustrating and upsetting some comments sound.

It's the year 2016, yet there are still people getting discriminated against for reasons that have no logic whatsoever...

I cannot fathom why there is still stigma in this day and age. Things that are completely normal, natural and so common are reasons why people are getting kicked down and made to feel isolated by the world.

Something that drives me crazy is how we follow what society sees as success instead of following our own goals. Society tells us that we need some form of education, a shiny career with a fancy office and a perfect family.
