Love all of your shows! I really do. But please don't add to the stigma regarding mental illness by using these unfortunately common terms. @SimonWhistler
@SimonWhistler love your channels, esp Casual Criminalist, but have a few issues regarding how you talk about mental illness. We are not defined by our illness so pls don't refer to ppl as bipolar or schizophrenic...we live with BP or schizophrenia.
The word "commit" refers to a crime and suicide hasn't been a crime in the US since 1969. You should say something like "died by suicide" "killed themselves" or "took their life" instead of "committed suicide."
@Retr0J You've long been my fav @Whatculture person, but as a #mentalhealth#bpd advocate, I can't tell you how much I love how you're ending your vids now. So important for ppl to hear--often need to hear it myself
@Retr0J I've been inspired by your video endings from a #mentalhealth advocate perspective...I don't regularly use Twitter but here what I posted https://t.co/ufB65iflCk
Keep it up man!
