It’s taken me a while to gather my thoughts on this post. A small part of me still feels nostalgic when I think about this site, my first experience with interacting with people who seemingly shared the same interests. I initially took a break in hopes that I could maybe come back to this site and enjoy it like I used to. Looking back, I really was a fool.
tl;dr: leaving site, if you want to talk to me find some way to get my discord
There’s no way for me to sugarcoat the fact that I loathe this site. You don’t really notice how bad it gets until you’ve taken a huge step back and looked at everything from a fresh perspective. This site worships mental illnesses as ‘quirky’ and ‘a way to be special’. You aren’t encouraged to get better. You’re encouraged to wallow in self-pity and act like nothing’s gonna get better. Being ‘neurotypical’ is a bad thing and just because ‘they’ can’t ‘understand’ what you’re going through, you’re encouraged to condemn them.
In fact, the constant acts of forcing people to share your perspective and condemning them when they step out of line are really prevalent on Tumblr. Not surprising, it’s not called the Hellsite for no reason.
Do I regret ever getting a Tumblr account? No. I’ve met many wonderful people through this account.
But that’s where the positives end. Tumblr’s mindset hit me hard when I was still an impressionable kid. I cast aside my loved ones because I thought they were abusing me, thanks to how badly Tumblr misinterprets ‘abuse’. I threw away my chances at improving simply because I was told that it’s okay to pity myself to the point of inaction. It takes a really hard hit from reality to make you realise how deep of a pit Tumblr puts you in with all the support for inaction.
Don’t wait for that hit to arrive. Get started on improving the life you deserve. Go outside, take a breath of fresh air. Look up at the skies for a bit. They don’t have to be clear. It could be raining, and that’s okay. Somedays are just rainy days. Find some cover and think about what you enjoy in life. What you want to pursue. How you could find some way to achieve that goal.
There’s always some way to pursue your dreams. What truly matters is how far you’re willing to go to achieve them.
Anyway putting aside the positivity Tumblr loathes, real talk. I’m leaving the site. Blogs will stay up as archives but that’s about it. If you wanna contact me you better hope you have my Discord or else you’re fresh outta luck.
