"Yes, it gets worse. No, no one really cares. No, there is no such thing as mental health care, it is mostly a front and a racket. No, there is no end or healing. Yes, people want you to get well, but only because your involuntary condition is putting them out, it's a fault that's on you and they don't have time or obligation to be bothered by it. No one thinks of it as a part of who you are and your identity, no one thinks about the ineffable struggles that mental disorders put on the person suffering from them. No one cares until it happens to them''.
"To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places...To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away and never, never, to forget." ~ Arundhati Roy
