It's just life...
people don’t understand just how much depression impacts you.
- it does stop you from doing homework, it’s not just us being lazy.
- it makes it really hard to wake up, so yeah sometimes we need to miss school
- it makes you isolate yourself, we don’t actually want to lose all our friends
- it makes you really nervous about weird things, so sometimes we just don’t want to do new activities or sports or whatever
why can’t people accept that?
Anxiety isn’t a fashion statement it’s a miserable disorder with actual real uncontrollable symptoms that eat you alive and distance you from the people you love so stop making it “trendy”

Israel’s Negev Desert is alive – with locusts.
NBC News: Huge swarms of the newly hatched critters have begun marching across the sand, devouring everything in their path.
With the help of high-tech irrigation methods, much of Israel’s desert has been transformed into lush farmland that supplies supermarkets across the country with fresh produce. But the swarm of locusts, which locals say is the worst infestation in decades, is threatening crops and farms.

Inspector general says management allowed tea party targeting
The Associated Press: The Treasury inspector general blames ineffective management at the Internal Revenue Service for allowing agents to improperly target tea party groups for extra scrutiny when they applied for tax exempt status.
In an upcoming report, the Treasury inspector general for tax administration says lax management allowed the practice to go on for 18 months. The Associated Press obtained a copy of the report ahead of its release.
The IRS on Friday apologized for targeting tea party as well as other conservative groups.
The report said that when asked by investigators, IRS supervisors said the criteria they used to decide which groups they examined were not influenced by people or organizations outside the IRS.
Earlier today, Attorney General Eric Holder said the Justice Department is investigating the IRS for targeting tea party groups. He also said the FBI will investigate to see if any laws were broken.
