I think it’s very telling that younger people are being socially conditioned to glorify and broadcast their mental illness along the same taglines they glorify and broadcast their gender identity on social platforms. Now if you suffer from low self esteem you can wear a big red target on you showcasing your insecurities and illnesses so all the narcissists can find you easily. If this had been a thing in my formative years-coming from an abusive background where I was hit but also forced to wear men’s clothes to dampen my own sexuality to appease a jealous and deeply mentally ill mother, I bet I’d think I was trans too to escape and feel special about my pain, and have lots of toxic little friends to validate me while I covered up my mental health and depression being a neurodivergent transman.
