Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth. - Oscar Wilde
Reblog if you do too. Just to prove that it is more normal than what people actually think.
guys ‘pizza’ is a hidden track on LiveSOS (i have the normal one-not the target edition) if you want to play it: 1. Go to track 15 and listen to it 2. wait when its over-dont press next 3. keep on waiting, it will come on in about half a minute after the track ends
reblog to save a life
Hey everyone. I’m about to tell you all a really personal story, and then, I could use your help.
The blonde in the pictures above is my little sister, Rachel. She’s 14, a freshman in high school. She’s one of the smartest kids you’ll ever meet, to be honest. Smarter than me. She’s got an amazing sense of humor and the most gorgeous smile, the sort of person who just lights up a room with laughter after being in it for five minutes. Even though I’m 19 and I should be the tough one, she’s held me when I cried, and she cooks me dinner when I’m too lazy to do it, and she gives me confidence when I don’t believe in myself. We cosplay together, we fangirl together, and we talk Tumblr-speak at the dinner table. It’s not an exaggeration when I tell you this girl is my entire world. I’d do anything for her, and I love her more than words could fully describe.
On Friday, she was admitted to a psychiatric hospital after a year of battling severe depression and anxiety.
She thinks she’s ugly. She thinks her future doesn’t matter. She often hates herself, and can’t see all the amazing things everyone else knows is obvious just from their first glance at her.
The red tie on my wrist you see in the third picture was from her. Behavioral hospitals don’t allow anything with strings on them, so after she pulled out the tie for her sweatshirt, she wrapped it around my wrist for me to wear until she gets back. It might only be for a weekend, or it might be for longer. I don’t know yet.
Here’s where I’m asking for your help. At the earliest, Rachel is coming home on Sunday, but it’ll probably be longer. Still, that means I might only have two days to get the message out. I want to show her when she comes home that there are people out there who believe in her. Who think she’s beautiful and worth fighting for, worth recovery.
So please, reblog this and prove to her that she has more support than she ever realized. I’m hoping it’ll give her some confidence than she can get better.
My little cousins are 8 and 6 and their mom passed away from cancer when they were 4 and 2 years old. They love 5SOS, and they just got to listen to Sounds Good Feels Good the other night. The eight year old listened to Outer Space/Carry On and Jet Black Heart, and she says they’re her favorites off the album. When I asked why, she said, “Because they tell me that it’s okay to miss Mommy, but that everything will be okay when I get bigger.”
This baby has suffered from anxiety and depression, before the age of 10, and she has found comfort in 5SOS’s music. Don’t you DARE tell me that 5SOS is “just a stupid band” or that they write “shallow music that has no meaning”.
@5sos-official, thank you for helping her Carry On.
@aroford and I wrote a filk about the brave and steadfast Fallers who have made the Cipherhunt so amazing!
you win this round
I’m sick of it. My younger sister, I love her to death. She’s funny, she’s weird, she’s just unique in general. She’s a great artist and I wish I could be like her, to be honest. My parents have judged her though. An awful lot. They’ve done a lot of fucked up judging. Awhile back, she had started self harming. Everyone found out, everyone gave her “comfort”. They asked her, why in the world had she started doing that? She replied some dumb excuse and everyone bought it. Except me. I knew the truth. She’s probably the last of the punk type generation, if you know what I mean. She often feels like a castaway. She listens to Twenty One Pilots, Fall Out Boy -OLD FOB-, Paramore, 5SOS -Does this count? I’m not sure-, Blink 182, and Hey Violet. Everyone thinks she’s an improper girl. What the actual fuck? An improper girl? So, now THEY want to be SEXIST?! They want to give her a fucking book about being a proper lady? Damn, can’t they just let her be her? Even if plays baseball, basketball, or is the leader of her track team, why is she an improper girl? She’s got -erm, awkward moment here- breasts, a vagina, and goes through her monthly. Let me be serious here, let’s be so serious here, Miley Cyrus, Iggy Azalea, and Niki Minaj are the real improper girls. Don’t they have any decency? They are literally talking about how girls are fuck toys for guys. My mom, she thinks Twenty One Pilots is a horrible band. That they talk about dying. And I guess, she’s sort of right. They’re telling you to find the right path though, not to make rash decisions. Even if they are a punk rock band, if they’re keeping her alive, why can’t she Fucking listen to them. I don’t know what this helps, but maybe it will tell you not to treat girls or kids like shit.
