mental illness is constantly either demonized or romanticized by society and there is no space in that dichotomy for real people with mental illness to exist without feeling shamed and invalidated and that isn’t fair

Neither of these polarizations show the slightest bit of regard, understanding, or empathy for individuals living with a mental illness.
