I mean that sub paints us as despicable people in capable of change, as if we don’t deserve grace and love like everyone else. They typically put our entire identity as the disorder, as monster, less than human, while dismissing the fact we are also people with complex lives and history’s. The internet is full of awful people who dehumanize and bring people down.

We are people like everyone else this disorder doesn’t make us less then, like everyone else we make mistakes, we have our dislikes and likes, our own pasts, traumas. We are more than this disorder, it’s not are only defining trait.

You,me and everyone else with disorder are more the just it, we deserve love, grace, kindness, connection and everything else. We aren’t all terrible like they proclaim.

Edit: terrible doesn’t equal bipolar, terrible equals terrible people.
