Apologies for the terrible image quality - I’m lacking scanner access at the minute so I had to take these photos on my phone

I was reading hyperbole and a half’s blog entry explaining their experience of depression and decided to make another sketchy comic based on my experiences with anxiety, which is another mental illness I think people tend to misunderstand quite frequently

Hopefully this will be of use to some people - whether they suffer from anxiety themselves or if they just want to know more about it

Learn to embrace it and you become god.

“I don’t like honors. I’m appreciated for the work that I did, and for people who appreciate it, and I notice that other physicists use my work. I don’t need anything else. I don’t think there’s any sense to anything else. I don’t see that it makes any point that someone in the Swedish Academy decides that this work is noble enough to receive a prize. I’ve already got the prize. The prize is the pleasure of finding the thing out, the kick in the discovery, the observation that other people use it. Those are the real things. The honors are unreal to me. I don’t believe in honors. It bothers me, honors. Honors is epilets, honors is uniforms.”

- Richard Feynman

Today in science we learned that you can never gain cold, you can only have an absence of heat; and it made me think that maybe hatred doesn’t exist, and there’s only an absence of love.

this is the realist shit I’ve ever read

POSTING NUDES DOES NOT MEAN YOU LACK SELF RESPECT.

POSTING PROVOCATIVE IMAGES DOES NOT MEAN YOU LACK SELF RESPECT.

POSTING SKIN DOES NOT MEAN YOU LACK SELF RESPECT.

POSTING SEXUAL IMAGES OF YOURSELF DOES NOT MEAN YOU LACK SELF RESPECT.

YOU CAN RESPECT YOUR BODY AND FEEL GOOD ABOUT IT AND SHARE IT WITH WHOMEVER YOU WISH, AND THAT IS NOT A BAD THING.

In a way, yes, but what about those who actually didn’t rape anyone? The men (and women, even though this is alot more common amongst men) who get blamed and instantly secluded from society because they supposedly raped someone, when they actually are victims of the exact thing they are being accused of?
Let’s let the legal system decide and punish in the future, shall we?

Get the FUCK off my post you rape apologist asshole.

Reading comprehension, WHAT IS THAT? This says “Rapists deserve to have their lives ruined.” People who are didn’t rape anyone aren’t rapists. You’re an enormous douchecanoe who couldn’t be bothered to READ the post before spouting your male entitlement all over it.

Research shows that just .6% of rape allegations are false - which means that 99.4% of rape allegations are TRUE. And 97% of rapists will never see a day in jail, because the LEGAL SYSTEM IS FAILING THE VICTIMS.

It’s people like you who allow rape culture to thrive. I literally cannot express in words how disgusting you are.

"There were no sex classes. No friendship classes. No classes on how to navigate a bureaucracy, build an organization, raise money, create a database, buy a house, love a child, spot a scam, talk someone out of suicide, or figure out what was important to me. Not knowing how to do these things is what messes people up in life, not whether they know algebra or can analyze literature."
