The world is cruel enough sometimes.

In 2015 alone, 828,000 people commited suicide.
Globally, more than 264 million people suffer from depression.
7.3% of the World Population has anxiety.
In 2015, one single country had 164,000 people with Autism.
20% of Teenagers are bullied everyday.

These statistics alone prove that the world is sometimes not a kind place.

People need to stop with the jokes. You have no idea how much it hurts when people joke around about Suicide, Depression, Anxiety and Autism.

The jokes and 'hilarious', unserious comments that go something like:

Suicide:
"Ha I wish I could die"
"Go kill yourself"
"Ugh kill me now"

Depression:
"Urgh I'm so depressed, lol"
"Why don't depressed people just make themselves happy again? Haha"

Anxiety:
"Look at you, you're so scared over a measley presentation, it's not that difficult"
"If you have anxiety, just stop being anxious. Hahaha, LOL"

Autism:
"Hahahaha I'm so autistic".

Bullying:
"Ooooo stop bullying me, lol"

Suicide is not some silly joke.
Depression is not something to dis and laugh at.
Anxiety is not attention-seeking.
Autism is not amusing.
Bullying can bruise a person, inside or out, and those "funny" jokes hurt them even more. 

Words cut like a whip. Even when not directed towards a certain person, those careless comments can still wound people more than you can ever imagine.

The world is already cruel enough.
It needs to change.
It needs kindness.

So I propose a new hashtag.
One to use whenever you see someone making fun of these topics, not treating them seriously, or bullying someone.
Stand up and say that it is NOT okay.

Put a stop to it.
