What Mental Disorders Taught Me that Health Class Never Could

 What Mental Disorders Taught Me that Health Class Never Could:

1. How fast a pulsing heart can go without bursting
2. How quickly the feeling of my blood rushing to my head can disappear
3. How sweaty palms develop during conversation with someone new
4. How much breathing actually helps
5.  How much better you are without social relationships 
6. The boys you date are better than any anti-depressants you'll ever take
7. If you kiss enough boys the dread in the pit of your stomach goes away
8. Your anti-depressants won't stop your trembling hands as you take that boy's shirt off
9. When your bipolar boyfriend takes his mood swings out on you, it's not okay
