What Do Y’all Think About This?

I just saw this post on Facebook and I’m curious what others think about it. I understand what the article and the girl who shared it are trying to say but I also think it’s a little ignorant. What about people that suffer with mental illness? They aren’t just being lazy or selfish. Small tasks are a huge struggle for some. Now I know that technically this post has nothing to do with people with mental illness but I see this girl post stuff like this often. She recently made a post saying that if you complain to her about your problems she will tell you to suck it up and be an adult. Idk... it just seems extremely insensitive to me. I also don’t like the way she spoke about “privilege”. The article itself is also frustrating to me because once again people with mental illness can’t help but feel like everything sucks. It’s not their fault... What do y’all think?

Just for a little more background... this is part of another post she made recently. Idk why but this really rubs me the wrong way.
