Yo if you’re a boy with mental illness, a boy with disabilities, a boy who is/was an abuse victim, a boy who has an ED, a boy with trauma, I need you to know that you are not a burden, that you don’t need to “harden up”, that you are very brave, and that you shouldn’t just have to “get over it”.

as OP… the notes on this make feel so happy!!! keep spreading the word, everyone! let boys know that they are strong.
I’m a trans man and I got to see the change in people being like ‘Oh you poor thing I hope you’re coping ok’ to ‘Just get over it, man up’ which has literally been said to me. Men, you’re allowed to suffer. You’re allowed to seek help to heal. Let yourself have these emotions you’re feeling, they’re as natural as anything else.
This is a really good addition. Men, I love you. You’re gonna be okay and you are allowed to cry, be angry, smile, love. You are allowed to feel, you are allowed to struggle, you are allowed to get help.
