for those who believe nothing can get better: you don't have to get in the way of those who do

@molly0xfff I'm a disabled trans wheelchair user, Autistic, PTSD and a pain profile that makes doctors cringe. Sometimes despair takes over. Sometimes just facing another moment of hellscape feels insurmountable. While you're congratulating yourselves on not giving up, and dismissing those who do, ask what privilege enables you to do that? Despair is not a fixed point; it's a phase we go through 99% of the time. Compassion for those who can't escape. Patience for those moving through it. 2 cents

@VaylLarkinPoet i am not dismissing those who despair or give up. but i do not understand what compels them to try to convince others to do the same.
