Mentally and physically healthy people: *breaking multiple rules, being unsafe*
Severely mentally ill people: *following the rules really well with an occasional break but done in a safe manner. Sacrificing own wellbeing to save lives*.
The former: 'but what about mental health!'
Sorry but what about the mental health of those of us whose lives are on the line? None of these people who suddenly care about mental health seem to care about the toll it takes watching more than half the people you know have complete disregard for your right to life.
TW suicide

I literally attempted suicide in May because of the affect the pandemic has had on my life (inability to access tests and treatment vs not being able to go to the pub), yet you don't see me breaking the rules and using MH as an excuse.
To be clear, this is not directed at genuinely mentally ill people who've had slip ups because of their MH. It's about people with no MI who've never done any advocacy or activism about MH suddenly using it as an excuse to do whatever they want at the expense of people's lives.
