do you feel like you're romanticizing the topics you write about(ocd, anorexia, etc.)?

Not at all. I hate when people romanticize mental illness or other disorders.

They are not something to be romanticized or longed for. People with mental illness or mental disorders did not ask for the disorder. They’d most likely not have it in the first place.

I write about these topics so that others with these disorders and illnesses can find comfort in my poems and connect to them.

Nothing more.

When someone is pro-ana or says something like “Oh my god, I wish I were depressed because it makes people so dark and cool and mysterious and sexy” - that is romanticizing mental illness, disorders, etc.
