Poison Ivy’s Lair

i've thought about what's possible wrt reducing stigma around mental health and i don't think it's possible

if you ever disclose it you literally give ppl an unfalsifiable way to dismiss anything you say

The “train wreck” stigma also falls unequally on different mental health diagnoses.

You can say “I’m autistic” or “I have PTSD” in a workplace and it can sometimes be spun as either a superpower or triumph. But say “I’m schizophrenic,” “I’ve got borderline personality disorder” or “I’m chronically depressed” and it gets received as both an intellectual and character impediment.
