11 Things You Can Do Instead of Supporting Logan Paul
YouTube

I have never been the type of person to tell people who they should and should not support. "Problematic faves" exist because people make mistakes. However, Logan Paul is someone I will never give my time to.

I will not watch his videos, I will not follow him on Twitter and I will not subscribe to his YouTube channel. The video that he posted of Aokigahara was extremely insensitive. Suicide is not a laughing matter and it should not be seen as a joke or as a ploy to get views.

There are other ways to raise awareness for mental health, and this video was not a way to do that.

So, instead of watching the video or supporting Logan Paul, here are ten different things you can do to stop giving Logan Paul monetary support. You can also raise awareness for mental health and help someone out by spreading valuable information instead.

1. Unsubscribe from Logan Paul’s YouTube channel.

2. Unfollow Logan Paul on Twitter.

3. Stop buying his merchandise.

4. Stop watching Logan Paul’s videos.

5. Do not watch his apology video.

6. Tweet the suicide lifeline number for your friends and family who may need to talk to someone.

7. Be supportive of your friends and family with depression or other mental illnesses.

8. Speak out about your experiences with mental health and how it can be helped through therapy or medication.

9. Tell everyone you know that they are not alone.

10. Be open and compassionate towards other people who are feeling alone, depressed or who have suicidal thoughts.

11. Help spread the message that mental health should not be stigmatized.

If you or someone you love is struggling with suicidal thoughts, please do not hesitate to call The National Suicide Lifeline. They are available 24/7 and are more than willing to listen to anything you may be struggling with.

National Suicide Lifeline: 1-800-273-8255

They also have an online chat that you can use instead of calling in if you aren't comfortable talking on the phone. You can start a chat with a counselor here. They are more than willing to listen to any problems you may have. Your voice will be heard and someone will be there to speak to you no matter what.

One way that I know how to spread positivity is by using music that spreads a positive message. One of my favorite songs from Dear Evan Hansen is called "You Will Be Found." I know music doesn't fix everything, but if you're ever feeling down, I hope you watch this video or listen to the cast recording. I hope it speaks to you in the same way that it spoke to me the first time I listened to it.

You will be found.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
