95% of people who’ve made posts like these are not even from the middle east
we call it الشرق الأوسط (the middle east) in arabic too, quite frankly we just don’t have strong enough ties with asia at large to identify with the term “west asia” 1/3
🗣️decolonise your language🗣️
seeing as everyone is talking about it again- it’s western asia,
/not/ the middle east
the term was coined in imperialism and colonisation
and CANNOT be removed from that context
there isn’t a large local movement to stop calling it the middle east and there are many more important issues going on anyway, it’s just pedantic and as an iraqi arab/kurd a worse and less relatable alternative
besides religion nobody in iraq or yemen has any real cultural connection to india, china, vietnam or usbezkistan, but on the other hand syrians, turks, omanis and persians all share a tight cultural sphere with one another that doesn’t meaningfully link to the rest of asia 2/3
@itszeekeboi that’s rough, sorry to hear
maybe call your emergency hotline? they should still follow through
or ask a trusted friend to somehow help you get near a hospital, you can avoid saying why
you don’t deserve this at all but it’s still an obstacle you can overcome, I believe in you!
@itszeekeboi you mentioned today your interest in being admitted so don’t deny yourself the chance, u can always commit later but right now you still have the luxury to find different answers
the version of you who’s committed and is about to die is begging you to do so, please listen to it❤️
@itszeekeboi Stop. order an uber as soon as you can and set it to the emergency room of your nearest hospital, tell them your thoughts and intentions, leave nothing out
theres nothing more that you have to do, they’ll admit you into a psych ward and take care of you, it genuinely is that easy
