Reblogging to spread the word, cause evidence shows that Autism $peaks are classic horror movie villains.

Reblogging because I’ve always wondered who to support instead of AS.

To every friend of mine who reblogs this, thank you. It means I can trust you. <3

15 year old me would be so annoyed with 21 year old me for being like I have a lifelong mental illness but I’m essentially symptom free right now and that’s partially because of my medication, but things like regular exercise, keeping a routine, trying to get enough sleep, and changing my attitude really do help keep me stable. but that’s not “do yoga” advice, that’s getting a different perspective as you grow up and I really wish I didn’t dismiss stuff like that as wellness blogger self help book bullshit back then

anyway if you’re a teenager dealing with mental illness, please know that not ALL advice relating to changing your mindset is “if you’re mentally ill just stop 😌” it’s stuff you learn in most forms of therapy

ADHD Medication information sheet

So pretty much everything most poor and busy people eat… lol this is why it’s important that they judge how effective drugs are in lifestyles behind suburban people and people in institutions with no control over their life.

He acknowledged that it hurt a little. He didn’t tell her it didn’t hurt and to not cry. Be honest with your kids.

IM SO PROUD?!!!!!!?!!! LIKE WEE MAN IS A FUCKING LEGEND?!!!!!?!!!!!?!

wanted to see a more recent update and

BOIS STILL GOING STRONG YEEHAW U GO LITTLE SCIENCE KID

Every time I reblog this I just really hope Daniel’s doing well

i just wanna say i really support daniel in all of his endeavors and i hope hes having a good day

look its funny enough one of the trumps thinks mob psycho is propaganda but once he searches for axis powers he is going to fucking disintegrate

yeah reminder not to go on tiktok y'all i lit got tricked into watchin that video that’s goin around so rlly don’t go on today

edit: an anon reminded me probably best to describe him so i have a screen cap of like the first second of the video

if u see this man on ur screen literally scroll away bc it’s The video!!!!

i have not watched this video, but i think it’s important to warn people that according to comments this man commits suicide on camera. there are a lot of comments simply telling people to “keep scrolling” but please also say what the video is. it took me a good minute to find that info just from the notes.

THIS IS A VIDEO GRAPHICALLY SHOWING A MAN COMMIT SUICIDE VIA SHOTGUN TO THE HEAD. IT IS SHOCKING, IT IS TRAUMATIC, PLEASE IMMEDIATELY KEEP SCROLLING OR REPORT IF YOU SEE THAT FIRST FRAME. IT HAPPENS VERY QUICKLY WITH LITTLE TO NO WARNING.

As someone who did watch this video, it’s awful. If you see this screen, immediately keep scrolling. I recommend turning off autoplay on your tik tok account .

PEOPLE ARE ALSO EDITING THIS CLIP INTO OTHER TIKTOKS.

I JUST SAW ONE WITH A GIRL DOING THE “my biggest flex is having hot friends check” AND THE FIRST THING THAT POPPED UP WAS THIS VIDEO. IT IS GRAPHIC AND DEFINITELY TRAUMATISING.

I have also been told that there are several other tactics that people are using. A few of them are:

- craft videos with multiple steps. they will show one or two steps before cutting to the video.

- innocuous videos (ie, someone showing their pets or kids) will also show the clip. a good way to tell is if it seems like a poor-quality video.

- aesthetics videos (one that is circulating is a halloween aesthetic video)

- lastly, it will seem to be a person making a rip post for the man in the video

these are just the ones i have heard from friends or people posting about this. pls be safe and pause to read the comments on tiktoks to get an idea of what the video may be.

tiktok has a history of not being the best at handling things like this so do your best to keep yourself safe. if you have younger siblings, friends or maybe kids of your own pls try to get them to stay off tiktok for a while or pass this information off.

It was really bothering me that the person who commits suicide in this video is nameless in every post I’ve seen warning about the video, so I decided to look him up. 

The man’s name is Ronnie McNutt, he was a 33 years old Iraq war veteran from Mississippi who had just lost his job at a Toyota plant, and the video did not originate on Tiktok. 

McNutt killed himself during a Facebook live video for his friends, friends who were trying to talk him down. Then some unknown person took that video and put it on other platforms.

I feel this information is important because:

if u think im annoying now wait until i get over my fear of being perceived as annoying

I would also have appreciated: the fact that you can do something if you try very, very hard, does not actually obligate you to spend your life putting forth maximum effort to achieve it. It is okay to not be 1000% driven by life-consuming ambition and instead be satisfied with something less difficult.
