It’s world mental health day. Trying to access an education should not make you mentally unwell, cause burnout, increase anxiety so much you can’t eat. Make you so dysregulated you hit out in school or once your home. Schools aren’t “ safe” spaces for thousands of neurodivergent kids. Please stop

This year’s theme, “Mental health in humanitarian emergencies”, reminds us that mental health support is not a luxury. It is a necessity that must reach everyone, especially those already living at the margins of care.

Jojo she/her @jojofe24.bsky.social · 8h

True, very true.

Jojo she/her @jojofe24.bsky.social · 8h

Probably happens to everyone eventually, we all get a turn, fairs fair😂

Jojo she/her @jojofe24.bsky.social · 8h

Im sorry youve had to deal with that. Bullying makes some people happy it seems.

Jojo she/her @jojofe24.bsky.social · 8h

❤️‍🩹

Jojo she/her @jojofe24.bsky.social · 8h

Actually, this one last bit of meaningful honesty, no, im not "fine"

I have cptsd, this was a trigger, im not "fine" but i will be ok

Your mental health is so important, do not ever sacrifice it for social media or people who would join in cheering your demise

Jojo she/her @jojofe24.bsky.social · 8h

For the record, im fine, dont worry about me

Im dealing how i always do, shutting down and backing up

Thats normal for me, youll have seen me do it b4

Its probably not healthy but what is lol

Jojo she/her @jojofe24.bsky.social · 8h

Actually, thank you to all my moots who supported me, said nice things and made sure iwas ok❤️

As for bluesky, my advice, find somewhere else, this place was poison from its inception

I definitely have thinking to do about how much i give of myself to both social media and activism

But its been made perfectly clear, bluesky is not a left or marginalised friendly space

Jojo she/her @jojofe24.bsky.social · 11h

❤️

Was my own fault, i wont make the mistake again.

Jojo she/her @jojofe24.bsky.social · 11h

I was being used as an excuse. They likely planned to do this anyway because it was causing them problems

I was a convient scapegoat

Jojo she/her @jojofe24.bsky.social · 11h

It remains as disgusting as when jk rowling uses her big account to do it

Harass, bully, hurt, terrorise, frighten, using what power they have to destroy other human beings

Its something only very twisted people do

If you join in youd better be very certain thats who you want to be

Jojo she/her @jojofe24.bsky.social · 11h

All these bullies with their big accounts and audience move on, they find another victim to mass harass and terrorise

Theyll smell more blood as they always do

They destroy people, many people who have nothing but their small account to socialise on, and they take it from them

Jojo she/her @jojofe24.bsky.social · 11h

I inadvertently walked into something larger than i intended to, and i should have blocked and left them to it

Thats my own doing

But you chose to join in that pile on, and thats who you are

I dont respect that at all, and i dont trust you
