The world doesn't help anyone

This year has been a very tragic and eventful year and many things determined this year are going to change the world as us millennials know it. Brexit and all the terror attacks that have been committed by a small minority of extremists. However the issue has arisen that when an attack is committed by a white individual they have a mental health issues but any other race is just known as an attack. For someone with mental health I can understand that some with mental health conditions can lead to a small percentage of of people committing crimes against others because they have not received the right help.

The media are very quick to judge and blame the individual and yes they should they did the crime but there should be a deeper look into the system itself. It is failing most of society because there are not enough people to work within the mental health system due to a lack of funding and there is still a detrimental ignorance towards mental health and this knowledge is needed to combat the problems at the root of all the issues.

However not all individuals do have a mental health condition and have just become extremists due to the things they have read and seen and the impact of other human beings who believe that others have to perish in order to make the world a better place, or because their god told them so. It has been addressed many times on the news and in papers no matter what god you have they would not want you to take another human life that they made and created. So no one is winning anything ? This is just my outlook on the situation and of course everyone has a different opinion.

The point is innocent people are losing their lives and this has a massive ripple effect on those who knew the people who have been killed in these attacks.

Brexit is just another shit in the toilet where divides of those who voted remain and leave have been largely magnified and has definitely shown a large difference in the opinions and outlooks of the older and younger generations.

With everything that is going on in the world plus the small and bigger battles people deal with on a daily basis it does not shock me that every year there are more and more people coming forward and asking for help with their mental health. I am genuinely concerned for the children born from us millennials because the world could be a completely different place in even a few years. If what we are going through now is just a small image of what is to come then I for one am not sure if I want to bring children into this. 

The world has many good points to it and there is love, family and the natural beauty of the world and the opportunities to experience it, but there is the massive black cloud always close behind with all the horrendous stuff that we are now often hearing and well those asking for help are realists and aware of all the horrid acts happening in the world. There has been a suggested link between intelligence and mental health of course this is only suggested and not speaking on behalf of everyone.

In my opinion the world currently definitely does not help those who already know the darkness of society and and those who suffer it.

The black hole

So when things go bad, wrong or I lose something I thought would be in my life forever and end up in what I call a black hole, it has two steps really. The first I pretend it doesn't really matter too much, I drink a lot, smoke a lot and basically let loose but a bit too much its definitely on the fence of being a little crazy but then i have never fallen into the trap of things are either black or white in my life its mostly grey. The second I retreat, I hide myself away regret mistakes I made in the first step from being a drunk mess 90% of the time. I shut down, I barely speak to anyone. I get bad thoughts that definitely interrupt my days and I find myself either full to the brim of emotion or emotionless and in all honesty I am not sure which one is worse. The first step is very short lived in comparison to the second. About 2-3 weeks of crazy and then the worst is that i cannot put a time on the second. The last time I was in a black hole it was a few months. I have a...

Guessing you want a back story huh ?!

Well I wish there was an interesting story that I could tell you, but it is just the same 'tragic' story that you hear on X factor or BGT. I lost a lot of people on my journey to become an adult one of them being my father. I lost friends both through death and due to, well I guess being caught in a web of despair and being a weird emo chick with eyeliner thicker than a chicken thigh, I mean I don't know the guidelines in the manual of how to cope with death when you're 15 but pretty sure I didn't follow any of them, everyone loves a rebel right?! School was tough, being poor didn't help kids can be cruel about what you do and don't have. Oh and being clever apparently is something to be mocked, I know lets enjoy that now when I'm the one with the degree. Even though yet I haven't achieved anything with it, yet, standard graduate crisis. An turbulent relationship with my mother then gift wrapped my teen years for me with many arguments, which did...
