I'm so tired.

I'm tired of injustice. I'm tired from working two jobs because I feel useless without them. I'm tired of having to take medicine every day and am still plagued with panic attacks and unprovoked emptiness. I'm tired of people arguing with me about how people who are attracted to the same gender shouldn't get married. I'm tired of people arguing in favor of f*cking assault rifles. I'm tired of people reaching out to me for help, but not being able to help me in the rare occasions I ask for anything. I'm tired of college being priced as a luxury and viewed as a necessity. I'm tired of people telling me I have nothing to be upset about.

I have a great life. I have a loving partner. I have support from my parents. I have reliable friends. I have honest jobs. I have two precious cats. I get to do things with my community theater.

I'm exhausted with people telling me to just suck it up and deal with the problems the millennials face caused by the generations before us.

Don't message me telling me to suck it up. Don't message me telling me you had it harder growing up. Don't message me saying that I'm going to hell. Don't message me saying that you supported yourself through college (because your schooling cost way less than mine does). Don't message anyone in my family saying you're worried about me. Don't message me saying that you're sorry.

I'm tired.

I'm tired of people being fake on social media. I'm tired of people being fake in real life. Say what you mean. Stop saying things you don't. Stop saying things you've read somewhere and saying that you're right because you can trace it back to a Wikipedia article or an ancient book. You're not always right. I'm sure as hell not always right, either. But I work every day to be more educated and more prepared.

I'll suck it up when you do.

I'll suck it up when innocent people stop being murdered. I'll suck it up when people realize that there's literally nothing wrong with being gay. I'll suck it up when people stop cheating on their partner. I'll suck it up when women don't fear their lives in a f*cking parking lot. I'll suck it up when we can all collectively agree that Donald Trump is a joke.

Until then, I'll have my opinion.

And you will have your opinion, which will likely not change my opinion. And I will continue to write and try and do my part to make things change. What can you do today to make us less tired of injustice and immaturity?
